“It reminds me that it’s important to create, even if it’s bad. Just because it doesn’t work for everyone doesn’t mean it’s devoid of any merit. The good stuff comes when you keep going.”

THIS! Thank you! It’s exactly what I needed to hear 😌

Hands up! I am feeling very fortunate/sad/happy/lucky that I was there for a few of these moments you describe Kambing, before the white-knuckled gigs, overlooking a cool bar where no one danced, the first taste of a new song and the feasts that were your album releases. Can’t wait to see what is next (both leaking faucets and waterfalls) xx

how lucky i am to have you, Kambing Sr.!! i love you for being at those shows, for being there period, and i'll never forget the night you went straight from your long flight to that one tiny bar in makati just to watch me play. those gigs were always, always worth it. and if there are more, i'll just be glad to know you're always there. (praying for waterfalls but i'll take whatever comes!!)
