This is a video I made a few years ago. I had to take it off You Tube because they noted it for using copyrighted material. But I think it still plays fine on Multiply. I never got around to updating it, so here’s the video as it appeared in 2006.

So many things have changed since then.

Thanks to Gio for reminding me.

    Gerry,
    Hanep itong video. You did this in 2006? Where’d you get all those photos? I see some of the younger artists included who are now illustrating for U.S. comics like Mico and others who I never heard of before. Wait a minute, was that Randy Valiente?
    OK yung awit ni Bob Dylan, pero mas bagay siguro kung Pinoy Song.

    OK, the big question is: given the current situation, would you have included Carlo Caparas?
    Hahahaha.

    Yehey… after watching this video again.
    I am very much inspired once more. :D

    I could have used a Tagalog song, but for some reason, Like a Rolling Stone captured some kind of spirit of things keep rolling on inspite of everything, emphasized by the driving rhythm. I know of no Filipino song that comes close to the feeling of it. However, I use Tagalog songs with impunity with my other videos, specially the one featuring the comics museum, where I used a song by After Image.

    I believe I still would include CJC because I can’t deny he is a memorable part of Philippine comics history.

    Gerry,
    Bob Dylan and that song are just the most famous in U.S. music, kaya nasita ka.

    BTW, your picture of Steve Gan reminded me that I saw the first issue of Ang Panday somewhere, probably in Video 48, and the illustrations by Steve Gan are amazingly good. I have no doubt, the illustrations carried that komiks series to popularity because of his illustrations.

    Hanep, long hair pa ko. Hahah

    Somebody revive the “Gabi ng Parangal sa Komiks”! :)

    People should see more of this Gerry, for the next generations sake…Im sure the path has been gratifying and tumultuous at the same time, but for a newbie like me, it’s a wake up call to never give up…this undeniably affirms WHAT is the Local Komiks Industry to Philippine History and it’s here to stay no matter what…

    On a side note; there was pic that showed “Gabi ng Parangal sa Komiks” how cool was that! and the song, albeit in english compliments the nostalgia and theme of the video.

    Salamat po sa re-post! :D

    Eto yung vid na hinahanap ko dati, Gerry. Nabaril pala, kaya di ko nakita nun. :) Yung ibang vids ko sa Youtube na-pulis din e. Kakatamad ngang baguhin, Hahaha!

  9. Gerry Alanguilan on September 24th, 2009 9:30 am

    Jerald, Yes, magkakaroon ulit gabi ng Parangal on October 15, 7pm at the Podium, and this is part of PICCA.

  10. Gerry Alanguilan on September 24th, 2009 9:31 am

    Philip, gusto mo bold ka rin? he.he.

  11. Gerry Alanguilan on September 24th, 2009 9:31 am

    Rod, I agree with you on Steve. I asked him if he wanted to draw again, sabi nya ayaw na nya.

  12. Philip Tan on September 24th, 2009 9:46 am

    uy ok! sisikat na ako as a boldstar! : ) kaya lang magiging porno etong sight mo.. di yata pwede yun.. maraming bata dito…

  13. Gilbert Monsanto on September 24th, 2009 10:04 am

    Gusto mo ng old pic ni Philip nung pumupunta siya sa new manila? meron ako hahaha. Madami na siguro nadagdag dito mula 2006 no? hehe.

  14. Gerry Alanguilan on September 24th, 2009 10:06 am

    Marami nang idadagdag kasi marami rin akong nakalimutan. Mukhang kelangang extended version ng kanta. he.he.

  15. Mark Navarro on September 24th, 2009 2:23 pm

    Gilbert, parehong cheesy ang choices natin. Ako, Kaleidoscope World by the late great Francis M. Both pinoy but in english so our foreign friends can appreciate.

  16. Gio Paredes on September 24th, 2009 6:24 pm

    Hehehe. Oo nga, naka bold si boss Wilson. Baka pwedeng palitan ng nakadamit na lang. :D

    At yung picture ni Sarge(Gilbert) baka pwede rin mapalitan. Nakita kasi ng wife ko. Sabi sa akin “Bakit ganyan itsura nya dyan? Di ko nakilala.” :D
