Hi Guys,
CONGRATULATIONS for successfully making it to the PIDCI’s 109th Independence Day Celebration Cultural Entertainment in New York. This event is dubbed as the BIGGEST PHILIPPINE INDEPENDENCE DAY CELEBRATION outside the Philippines…!!!!
Here are some tips for all:
1. Every performer/group will do a number that is more or less 4 minutes. This is YOUR time..!!Make the best out of it..! Non-pros: this is your BIG BIG chance to be scouted by producers who will surely be around..!! FOCUS on and perfect your favorite song/number..!! It only takes ONE great performance to make and get a break..!!!! BE WELL PREPARED…
2. PLS DRESS TO IMPRESS. Rappers/Hip Hop groups, pls be raggedly impressive, look different from your ordinarily dressed spectators.YOU ARE THE PERFORMER and THAT MAKES THE BIG DIFFERENCE…!!
3. Pls have your CD’s properly labeled and sound checked before the show. Sound check starts around 1 pm.
4. Contract signing will be on same date, Jun 3rd, starting at 12 noon
right where the stage is located. The main show starts at 2:30 pm. No more contract signing after 2:30 pm. Pls come on time. Non-pros, this is your oppotunity to start practicing being a real pro…!!!! Pls remember: NO CONTRACT, NO SHOW.
5. Pls bring your favorite POSTER, more or less 20×22 in., and we will display it all throughout the show.
6. You are requested to stay throughout the whole show . WE are all singing a common song at the end of the show. AND there will be a group photo session as well.
7. Some of you, especially the pros, will surely be asked by the spectators to sing more. We hate not to give them what they want but due to time constraints, we will have to let evrybody perform first, and then call you back later IF time allows. So pls be ready for another number, JUST IN CASE.
8. BANDS: amps/speakers/mics/drum set will be provided by Dave’s Dpsound, one of the best soundmakers in town. Just bring your instruments ie guitars, keyboards, etc.
9. A printed programme that will tell your number in the show will be distributed at your contract signing.
10. There will be two separate dressing rooms, one for males, one for females. (No 3rd dressing room for the 3rd sex. SORRY!…) OH, btw, and this is the BEST PART,
11.FOOD and DRINKS will be provided for FREE..!!
Date/Place/Time:
June 3rd, Sunday, 2:30-5:30 pm, Madison Ave/23rd St, Manhattan.
