The BOOTLEG BEATLES!

Ladies and gentlemen, the Bootleg Beatles!!!!

 Ever since I was a kid, I already had an ear for The Beatles. Up to this day, my dad would always play their songs on his stereo, and if i get unlucky, I get to witness him singing sexily (ewww) to my mom while twirling her around the dance floor a.k.a the living room. Well, obviously, as I grew older I became more in love with them. To be able to visit Beatle-landia and Liverpool itself is one of my greatest dreams!

When I saw the billboard of the Bootleg Beatles coming to Davao, I literally screamed *still screaming inside my head every time I think about it* my lungs out inside the car!!! I honestly thought I was going to run out of oxygen from that unbelievable moment but wait- I have to be alive to be able to watch the concert.

I know, I know, they're not the real Beatles, but my dad, who's also a massive fan told me they were genuinely good, no- they were really really good! Their concert was set on January 18 too, on my birth month and 10 days before my birthday. It was all meant to be.

I had class before the concert and I lived far from SMX so I had to bring the cake to school. It was a bad decision because it smelt so good I was almost tempted to eat it!

 

My cake!! They featured my cake on both screens (the other screen was on the opposite side) before the concert started. I had a hard time persuading the staff to deliver it to their dressing room but eventually someone fell into my trap (well there was no trap actually, I just really really really really had to convince them 9999x and it worked!! Yaaaas haha)

Here are some of the photos from the concert. I only brought my phone with me, so please bear with the not-so-good quality:

I was sitting on the 4th row from the center stage!!!

During "Twist and Shout", a lot of people from the audience stood up and twisted to the song! It was funny hahaha

"I am the Walrus"!!!!!!

Every one in the audience stood up and sang with the band in "All We Need is Love"

I was a bit emotional with the background they chose here. It was the actual Beatles' last live performance huhu

Paul and John!

George and Ringo!

In the middle of the show, George and the rest of the band thanked me (I still cant believe it) for the cake and had the audience give me a round of applause! I had it filmed but our internet connection is bad right nao. I'll try to upload it this weekend!

 The Bootleg Beatles were a m a z i n g!!! They sounded so authentic and looked so much like the Beatle boys (as what I've seen from photos and concert videos)!! If there was no one in the room I swear I was going to cry from extreme happiness. They were remarkable!!! They changed their looks and suits too as they performed and summed up the legendary decade of Beatle fame.

Amidst the chaos, I had myself taken an awkward photo haha

 

The huge smile plastered on my face is enough evidence of the fun night I had!

 I had so much fun that night!! I was singing and dancing and singing more and dancing more and did a bit of screaming too. The Beatles was a legendary english rock band that rose to fame in the early 1960's, so the crowd was primarily composed of older adults. I wanted to stand up and dance and sing loudly with the band, but I had to act classy for the older folks, so I had to put a leash on myself from my seat to prevent further youthful embarrassment.

On my Bootleg Beatles cake:

• I saw a similar design of the cake on google :)
• I had it customized from Ate Chef Cakes and Pastries by Ms. Joymarie Gutierrez Prenda. I love her cakes and how she never disappoints my expectations as a customer. She also designed my nephew's baptismal cupcakes last June 2012 and his 1st birthday cake 5 months later! Don't forget to check out her designs/cakes on her facebook page!

Yeah Yeah Yeah!!
