MANILA, Philippines — American rock band Incubus returned to the country after six years as they rocked the night away with a sold-out concert in Araneta Coliseum last night.

Brandon Boyd, Mike Einziger, Jose Pasillas,  DJ Kilmore and new bassist Nicole Row opened their Manila concert with "Quicksand."

The Calabasas-based band then hyped up the crowd by performing their hit songs "Nice To Know You," "Anna Molly," "Stellar," "Sick Sad Little World," "Circles," "The Warmth" and "Pardon Me."

"So how you guys doing? It's been a while," Brandon told the crowd. 

"Loud and beautiful. Thank you so much," he added.  

The crowd went wild when Brandon took off his shirt, showing his muscular physique while performing "Karma, Come Back."

Incubus also paid tribute to The Beatles by performing the latter's hit song "Come Together."

Brandon then introduced their new bassist Nicole to the crowd. She replaced bass player Ben Kenney after he went through brain surgery. 

The band then performed "Are You In?," "Vitamin," "Glory Box" and "Warning."

The crowd then stood up and felt the energy of the band as they performed, "Megalomaniac." 

The whole Araneta was especially loud when the crowd accompanied Brandon in singing "Megalomanic's" lyrics that said, "Step down, step down!"

The band then covered David Bowie's "Let's Dance."

They ended the concert with two of their most popular songs, "Drive" and "Wish You Were Here." — Video by Kathleen A. Llemit, editing by Anjilica Andaya
