Soundcheck. It was a TV show that I produced and directed for cable channel BeeTV about a year ago. The show folded due to some scheduling problems. There are some invitations to air the show again, but probably not this time.

Shown above is one of the brave bands that used the Cebuano dialect in their lyrics. They can make songs with English lyrics, trust me, but they opted to use 'bisaya' for so many reasons.

Well, there are a lot of 'BisRock' bands out there, but only a few have their hearts in the right place and their songs in the right tune.

After the soundcheck tv show folded, I started planning to do it online, and here we are! We may not be able to update the blog as often as we want, but we are getting there. We hope that you will stay tuned.
