Malungkot na balita... Maikling panahon lamang ang pinagsamahan namin ni Je sa trabaho, pero nakita ko ang taglay niyang kabutihan. Sa kanya ko din nga unang nadiskubri ang website ninyong ito. At habang pinapasuri ko sa kanya ang isang trabaho online, pinakikinggan ko naman noon ang, "What If Punk Never Happened..."--isang masayang ala-ala.
ReplyDeleteNakikiramay din po ako sa naiwanang pamilya, mga kaibigan, at mga kamag-anak ni Je.
another loss sa music scene
ReplyDeleteI have known Je for a short time only pero sa ikli ng panahon na aming pinagsamahan e wala akong masasabing masama tungkol sa taong yan. Isa siya sa mga taong nirerespeto ko di lang sa pagiging kaibigan nya kundi na rin na isa siya sa mga impluwensiya ko sa eksena ng ska at punk. Sayang nga lang at di na kami nakapagkitang muli. Isa sa huling pagkakasama namin e nung nagpunta kami sa Club Ska sa Mayrics kasama si Anoi. Nakainuman namin ang mga skinheads na tropa nila pati na rin si Shane Cosgrove. Pagkatapos ng gig e tumuloy naman kami sa isang chibugan sa Mandaluyong na malapit kila Anoi at humataw ng bulalo. Sa sobrang dami ng ininom kong alkohol at beer napaburp ako ng sobra na pwede nating ihalintulad, na according kay Je mismo, sa excorcist daw. Kapag naalala ko yun e di ko malimutan ang mukha nila Je at Anoi habang pinapanood nila ako. Isa rin sigurong dahilan na kaya COOL si Je e pareho kami ng bertdey. Paalam kasamang Je .... hanggang sa muli nating pagkikita! KAP
ReplyDeletecant believe it..just found out today...the last time i saw je was march 7, out of the blue he texted and asked me to meet him .. nursed a couple of beers, talked about music, life, his and mine, mostly laughed about what's going w/ both of our lives..never did i thought it would be the last time id see him...i'll surely miss you je..till then my friend...till then
ReplyDeleteI used to work with Je while he was an editor for the now-defunct Business Daily and he was known for his generosity and easygoing nature. He often lets those working with him easy and he never fails to lend out a helping hand. His death came like a bolt from the blue for me. I'm at a loss for words other than I'll miss him...Goodbye my friend
