MANILA, Philippines - Despite heavy rains and traffic, people still flocked to Sky Dome of SM North EDSA last July 10 for the launch of Pupil’s Wildlife: Special Edition album. The event presented by Sony Music and SM North EDSA Sky Dome in cooperation with Coke Zero, Levi’s, Puma, Rayban and NU107 also served as the band’s fourth anniversary celebration and it was made complete with prizes from sponsors.
The group which includes Ely Buendia (vocals, guitars), Yan Yuzon (guitars), Dok Sergio (bass) and Wendell Garcia (drums) treated fans to a night of rock music with songs like Disconnection Notice, Here I Go Again, Matador, Sumasabay, Talon and Different Worlds.
But the surprise and what the audience considers most unforgettable was when the band paid tribute to Michael Jackson, with drummer Wendell taking charge of the mic and Ely playing the acoustic guitar sitting on stage with their version of Man In The Mirror.
Those who attended the launch were the first to own copies of the album with all the stocks in the activity area sold out in one night.
The two-disc Wildlife: Special Edition includes the hits Sala, Monobloc and Teacher’s Pet. Bonus contents are demo tracks, music videos and a five-track live EP in addition to the original album.
The album is out in CDs under Sony Music.
