Ok so after a very forgettable performance we went back to the hotel to gather our thoughts and reflect on what happened,which didn't take long because we all got hungry!So we decided to take a walk to Larsians, its like a hotspot for people who have a hunger for awesome grilled food. Again we ate a lot,whats new right?hehe. Then we rested up. We got about 2 or 3 hours of sleep before we were awakened by Scott who brought in our breakfast.Then after eating we gathered our gear and got on the trusty bus again.Then we went on our way to the roro docks to Dumaguete which took so friggin long!I didn't really count the hours, all I know is that I could not sleep on the way there.We did several pit stops before we reached the docks.Then we all went down to stretch.We spotted a small carinderia and before we knew it,we were lining up to get some lunch!The food wasnt much but it hit the spot.We needed it for the roro ride.
And so after filling up our tummies, we went to fill the roro.We all got on before our bus and took our places at the passenger area.Then they loaded our bus on board which took half the space of the roro.When the roro went off everyone was psyched,but when the waves started pounding that was when people felt the ride.Some guys got motion sickness and just decided to sit down quietly and tried to hold their lunches in.Which was pretty hard because the roro was swaying all over.There was nowhere to feel stable or steady.After hour or more we reached the dumaguete port and everyone rushed to get down.especially the affected guys.I guess the bonamin took too long to kick in =P
Then after everyone got their composure (and balance) back we went in the bus again and went off to find our next hotel.Which turned out to be another long ride.But at last we reached a restaurant which was owned by our street team organizer.They had a buffet ready for us.And just in time too, coz I think we digested everything we ate on the trip there.Then after another food frenzy we finally went to our hotel,or should I say the jungle.Because thats kind of where we went.It was a place called Forest Camp,(yes,we joked around the forrest gump thing)It was a beautiful place.lush greenery all around.The cottages we stayed in were nice too.Complete with a terrace where we could see more trees and parts of what looked like a pool.And you can hear the rushing flow of waterfalls in the distance.We rested up a little then we went to explore,some of the guys went to go swimming in the pools.The water came from the nearby river.I took the camera so I could take some shots of the guys wearing a shirt and my boxers.When I got there they were all having fun.The bouncers throwing some of them into the pools.Andrew looked like simba when the bouncer raised him up.Then I saw Odin taking pics as well,he was in full gear too.shirt,jeans and shoes.Then he asked me if I was gonna take a dip,but I was in my boxers.He said so was he then I said Id swim if he did.Long story short,we dove in in our boxers hehe.And damn that water was cold!really cold.You'd think your body would get used to the temperature in a few minutes but It never did.But we didnt care,we stayed in that water till nightfall.Had some fun in the falls.Aaron and Andrew kept getting swept away by the tide.Then we all went back to our cabins.Where we all started to sneeze and cough a lot.We all got sick haha!
After drying ourselves up we got ready for the gig.We were all excited to give an awesome show for everyone and to make up for what I did in Cebu.Then we got to the venue.I forgot what it was called but it was basically an open area with a bar and grill I guess.And some pool tables which we played on after our performances.Everything was alright until we saw the turn out.It wasn't much.I dont think there was even 60 or 70 people present.We were kind of dissapointed.But we still played like it was the biggest rock show ever!The kids weren't very active either.But i guess thats how they are there.So we just wrapped up the night and got back on the bus.Then just as we were about to leave,some crazy-ass guy gets on the bus and starts screaming "God Bless you Siege Tour!" again and again.Then we just humoured him and said thanks.Then he introduced himself as the "SUICIDE BOMBER".Thats when we wish he would just get off right away haha.He did get off eventually,and he didn't blow up.
So the show went well even without the expected turnout.We went back to the camp and got some well-needed sleep.And the next day will be on the next post.Cheers!
