[dgr911]

Thanks tdo888 this will help a lot. My plane ticket's now with me and already bought 4 tickets for the concert thru my sis. I'm excited to be in Manila once again. Hope will not get lost going to Araneta, so much has changed. Hope parking will not be a pain. Can't wait to see Charice perform! Yipeeeee

[tdo888]

@dgr911 - You're Welcome, DGR... Great to know you'll be coming with your Loved Ones! Re: Parking, I suggest you come early, say around 5pm and park at the GateWay Mall basement parking (3 sub-levels). Do a bit of Shopping and/or dine there. After, there's a Walkway through to Araneta Coliseum from Gateway's 2nd floor.

Concert organizers are expecting to have tickets to be sold out SOON, like Singapore's as well! Its expected to be like an 'Ateneo vs. La Salle' championship, the crowd size!

[tdo888]

@zatoinga - What happened last Monday was a 'Wake Up Call' for our local authorities. REST ASSURED that ALL IS WELL & PEACEFUL here in Manila (except for the manic traffic jams around town which IS happening all over the world anyways!). ALL of 'us' here ARE EXPECTING for 'things' to GET BETTER as All 'Stink & Mess' Shall BE CLEANED UP (our New Gov't Administration has only been On-the-Job for barely 2 months).

COME Y'all!!! ALL IS 'Good'. No 'Major, Major Problems'!

[mylucky272]

hahaha @tdo888 no major major problem.

[Luweee28]
