Justin was one of the student participants in Musikgarten Manila’s Music Is Life (Season 2) held at Robinsons Galleria Activity Center last May 31, 2014. It’s the culminating activity of Musikgarten Manila’s summer programs where students showcased their musical talents and skills.
We had to wait for a few hours to see Justin on stage because he was one of the last students to perform.
First, he did several drum tricks, repeating after Teacher Pepe Herrera beating the other set of drums on the side stage. After the drums exhibition, Teacher Pepe went up on stage to sing One Direction’s “One Thing” and do organ accompaniment.
Everything went well for the first 50 minutes of Justin’s drum recital, but an unfortunate thing happened. After one hard hit on the snare drums, the drum stick on his right hand fell on the ground, and he couldn’t find it. It took 15 seconds before he could recover his lost drum stick. I actually thought he’d stop his recital right then and there, but he continued his performance as if nothing happened, and the crowd loved him for that. It was overall a good performance despite the minor mishap.
Now that’s what a real artist is! 🙂 He’s like a professional and it’s seldom to see kids with talent on drums. 🙂
So cool very talented I’m a frustrated drummer 🙂 continue to nourish his talent and someday he can be a leader of his band 🙂
Bravo Justin! You did a fantastic job and clearly showed grace under pressure. You lost your stick but went through with your set. Keep it up!
Thumbs up! Good job and nice performance.
Galing naman ng drummista na yan, way to go Justin!
Wait. I frequent Robinson’s Galleria every day, but I never noticed any singing contest happening there (save for that time Rico Blanco did a concert thing). Sounds like it was super fun!
Awww! He looks so handsome and cool drumming 🙂 I love his smiles 🙂 Way to go handsome, keep up the awesome work and aim for the stars 🙂
It’s okay little man, just charge it to experience! you still did very well! 🙂
