INVINCIBLE tour hits Los Baños!

The sky was clear and the air seemed to emanate a positive vibe from all those who came.

Last July 2, 2009, Shuffle Union and crew descended on one of the hotspots for Los Baños denizens, Java Avenue Bar, as we brought the Invincible Live Album Tour to yet another southern stop. It was a night filled with music as students from nearby UPLB and Colegio de Los Banos trooped to the venue to witness the annual Open Jam event/Invincible Live! Album tour Stop sponsored by the UPLB Gamma Sigma Red Scorpions.

Shuffle Union, and fifteen Laguna-based bands, playing various genres ranging from alternative, soul, reggae, and hardcore, played to a capacity crowd who packed the venue by as early as 8PM. In fact, people seemed to spill onto the streets and tables outside when we got to the venue.

Aside from the participation of Shuffle Union’s trombonist, Marlon Palustre, and honorary member Melvin Cabañero of Jeepney Joyride, this was the first time we had been able to play in front of a Laguna crowd after a long time, and all we can say is that it was truly a memorable experience for us!!

Big cheers to the guy who jammed with us! Once again, we would like to thank the main sponsors of the event, as well as those who came and witnessed a night of music, dancing and fun! It was fun bringing the ska train down to Los Baños, Laguna. We will definitely be back!

We are Shuffle Union!

Was it humid last Saturday night? we sure felt like that during our performance, as the people danced and closed in at The Leprechaun that evening. Steady flow of beer..check..small talk here and there..check..Meeting up with people you haven't seen in ages?..check..a gathering of friends..check!

It was an extra special performance for us that night, when long-time Shuffle Union trombone player, (and erstwhile retired?)Marlon, along with long-time honorary SU member, Melvin from Jeepney Joyride graced the 'stage'. Inducing more heat from the warm bodies who danced to Shuffle Union's set in the process. Salamat to everyone on the floor. It was a fun night to be with friends.
