here im going to test my very own chatroom...

It was a devastating irony in my life when WXB signed off then after a few months comes a new light....

NU107 goes on air with left over music from the demised WXB102, new wave once again blows in the air wave and there i was smiling. i bragged it to my brothers and friends, it was the day we've all been waiting for then few weeks more we heard someone on air......... whaaaaaa the station have a DJ(Cris Cruise)!.

The first months was awesome we could hear the cure, echo and the bunnymen, u2 also local bands like the dawn, identity crisis, violent playground and among others, then comes the format "DWNU 107 The Home of NU-Rock"  its like MTV on radio DJ's such as Major Tom, gerry dris, gerry why and i forgot the old dj's (hehehehe sorry guys me here getting old i guess). Slowly they played a couple of head banging bands the likes of Guns n Roses, metallica and to name a few. 

Thus start the Nu-Rock era and then a couple of concerts here and there together with the duke of charles (Rock Against Drugs) and some live brodcasting at myrics and club dredd. then comes the grunge bands, NU107 was the first radio station to play Nirvana (smells like teen spirit) and Pearl Jam (I think so if im not mistaken and since i am glued to station i really dont know if others played it before they do) this was the 90's.

I also did had a crush with one of the DJ of NU (Monica) hehehehe... but hey i never meet her in person (Sayang!) only through phone whenever i call NU for request. Also had my escapades with my friend Joel, whenever we go to the old station at Paseo de roxas just to get sticker and request for the NU sticker theme song he he he he... it was really hell of a funny day for both of us. Anyways then comes the first Rock Awards(1994 the year also when i got married).............. I was like "AWW MEN!"  I wonder how this would go the fact that the rock/alternative pinoy bands are all underground and only a few are already in mainstream.... hmm............. so there it was bands like Teeth, Alamid,  the dawn at marami pang iba. That time i didnt expect that this will be the start of an annual gathering of the best musicians/song writers and rockers in the Philippines and this was held at The Music Hall in Annapolis St. Greenhills.

The 90's was i guess was the era/decade of NU107 all the kids then were like into Grunge, Heavy Metal, Hardcore and the NU-Metal (kupaws) and all you hear are them kids talking "Uy nakinig ka ba kagabi ng NU... Grabe head bang talaga tugtugan!"........... Anyways that was the last i heard NU kasi nga Me and the rest of my family went to Kuala Lumpur Malaysia (August of 2000) and it was my "Kalbaryo" i dont have NU107 i dont which radio station i would listen to but....... yes but! the good thing is that i have my brought along my tapes with me and some CD's..... then a year has pass for me (w/o the home of nu-rock) when one friend of mine told me about this eradio portal and he said to me that "Pare try mo tong website na to... halos lahat ng estasyon ng radyo naandyan pati na AM" so there i was, i opened up the computer and then search for "e radio portal" then boom!!!!!!!!!! yun na!!! eto na naman ako.

NU107 on eradioportal.com, Whooooooo!!! Alas! the wait is over! now i can listen to NU107 (thank God for the internet and the person who invented this) So yes there i was almost the whole weekend walang patayan ng computer naka tune in sa NU107 through eradioportal.com then from then on yun na ang laging natugtog. after 6 years in Malaysia uwi ulit ng Pinas and ofcourse NU107 pa din syempre even though theres another station with almost the same format like of them na nasa ere na din still i stick to NU107.

But now............ after 23 years of being glued to NU107...... hmmm.......... it has comes to an end........ an end nga ba or what? Still in confuse on what will happen and what had happened to the station that half of my life has been with me......... i cant even find words on how would i live with out this (Sabihin ng drama pero what to do it really is my station) but then again life must go on and move on who knows maybe someday they will rise up again from the grave and maybe this time it will be better than what they have started.

thats it for now and i will just savour every single minute of NU107 on air as "Ang Bahay ng Bagong Bato/The Home of NU-Rock".

Another night another attack, Insomnia is always at my back.

Whatever i do, even drinking a bottle of milk or two.

Still the attack always came through.

Insomnia.... Insomnia... what would i do?

Insomnia....Insomnia... almost gone crazy coz of you.

Another moment in time of sleep, Insomnia attack is always at my sleeves.

Attacking the evenings i need to be free, this goddamn insomnia never let me be.

Freaking thingie how would it be, killing it softly maybe. 

Insomnia.... Insomnia... what would i do?

Insomnia....Insomnia... almost gone crazy coz of you.

Well i think insomnia is the case, that we should have killed.

For the burden it brings, will make us all bleed.

Pillows and blanket sheet, awaits me every evening.

But wait it is here, again attacking and still tingling.

Insomnia.... Insomnia... what would i do?

Insomnia....Insomnia... almost gone crazy coz of you.

Is there a cure? or maybe some pill.

For this freaking sickness, Always giving me chills.

Give me something to drink, for i want to sleep.

Even for an hour, just make me feel its real.

Insomnia.... Insomnia... what would i do?

Insomnia....Insomnia... almost gone crazy coz of you.

One day i went out to see whats there waiting for me, then i saw an old man sitting under the tree.

I asked him if he could join me for a cup of tea.

Coffee would do since i have no money, he answered back at me.

Then we both walk along the street to find some cheap store for coffee,

He started to cry and told me his story.

The poor old man was homeless since young, he begs for some change for he don't have a job.

He never really knew that this will be his life long story,

For he has the knowledge like some of those who have the money.

If only he could turn back time, the old man told me.

He wouldn't have left the countryside just for the city.

He said his journey will end someday, but nonetheless he has to beg to end up his day.

Passion and seclusions everyday he sees, for such a fine man a homeless one thats him.

Who would have thought that he's a vagrant, when he acts and speaks well than those rich man.

Ohh what a waste such talent and fine man, he is better than those corrupt politicians.

Homeless he was and homeless he will, but his fascinating story will make you wondering.

every night it seems my life sunk with in, every night i sing for the next day will begin.

children playing and began to sing, to whom it doesn't matter as long as they scream.

every moment people would think, are they to loyal for their friends so it seems.

too many locals it may brings, the moment of truth will ring a ding. 

Some say what some say when, it is easy to get there.

are you deaf?  are you blind?, maybe what you need is an open mind.

Sharing thoughts broken dine, are you ready to lend some time.

when i see you eyes will turn blue, then light will shine through.

when it will end  nobody knows, what would you do?

its all up to you.

Again and again it will always begin. from start till the end,

its all but the same.

changing this changing that will somehow gives you rest.

 but still all you need, is a love that will last.
