[Title] => Lite and Live at Tapika
[Summary] => Rock bands are enjoying another peak period in the local entertainment scene. However, if you will take a closer scrutiny of the current big-selling tunes by these groups, The Day You Said Goodnight by Hale or Stay by Cueshe, you will find that what the public actually likes are not the rockers but the romantic ballads. And when the mood calls for mellow sounds that are "pang-emote," nothing beats going acoustic.

[Summary] => Dennis Garcia, the man who created the Manila Sound with his group Hotdog and ushered in the glory days of Filipino pop music in the 70s, has recently returned to his one realand I must say, great lovemaking music. And this kind he says is "Music that is not manufactured to please a targetted segment of our society, but to please everyone who loves beautiful music. (Sorta like
what Hotdog set out to do). Quixotic? You bet."

[Title] => The sounds of Tapika
[Summary] => The word Tapika means "rays of the sun" in a Native American dialect. It has proven to be most fitting for the sun, plus the moon and the stars have all been shining brightly on the resto-bar since it began operations more than two years ago. Located at 220 Blueridge, Katipunan Avenue in Quezon City, Tapika now plays host to a varied clientele who have discovered the easy charm of its homey ambience, reasonable prices, mouth-watering menu and best of all, great music.
