June 1 on Rock Ed Radio>> "Time Will Reveal" (ni El deBarge)

Patay kayo.


Where were you when this watch was the bomb?

June 1 is the day we remember the crannies of the 80's. (Dekada Otsenta)

May jelly shoes ka ba? (aka Crayons) Bla-bla? (tama ba spelling, Reg?) Manipis na necktie, argyle vest, red na topsiders, Weejuns, Haruta, Ricco shirts, Culture Club na stationary na craft paper? Alam mo ba kung saan ang Kirei? Bumibili ka ba no'n sa Reginas? tapos sa Tickles? La Tienda, Whistle Stop? Ikaw ba'y nagka-Trapper Keeper?
Patay ka. Sali ka dito sa usapan na 'to... kung kilala mo lahat ng Regal Babies.

At alam mo kung anong day sa That's Entertainment si Lotlot. (and Friends) Solid 'to. Lakers ka ba o Celtics? Alam mo ba kung ano ang F.E.N? (ayon) Alam mo ba kung saan ang Jazz Rhythms, Faces, ZigZag, Culture Club, Euphoria, Roxy's? (aba....)

Let's talk to the experts: The Ronnies, (Ene, Ronnie, Reg etc) Dan Gil (Chillitees), and the ultimate star of the shadow of the 80's ...... the man who is just a smile away....... Jaime Garchitorena. (sumikat ba 'to? haha loko lang, Jaime...) Raimund Marasigan! (Sandwich --"meron lang Betamax") Patay.

As of Thursday, May 29 -- Rogue Magazine's Erwin Romulo, 80s outskirts expert (kasi bata pa daw siya) will join us, pati na rin si Mon Guinto ng LomoManila, they will help us recall the music and party scene. (Corinthian par-teigh)


It is high time we remember the 80's with sheer knowledge of the decade and utter disrespect for what was cool. (ows?)

What do you remember most about the 80s?
What was the vibe then that's completely defunct now?
What do you miss most?
Which trend would you revive?

Post your comments and questions here.

THE 80's. Wow. Hmmm, it was not the year that i was born. Definitely not. I was born a decade after it. I don't know much about the era but I've seen a couple of films that were 80-ish, meaning in the 80's era and I was fascinated after watching them. Makes me wish that I was born in that era.
OR better yet, I wish I could go to those years tomorrow and actually experience it.

~People in the 80's looked cool.
:p

Naku, FEN. Diyan ako na-addict sa seryeng Degrassi Junior High. Tsaka dun din ako nakakapanood ng Saturday Night Live noon.

Meron din akong pares ng topsiders, pero Timberland siya.

I still wear my black Swatch watch with the white face. Peste nga lang kasi noong nagbakasyon ako sa Pilipinas (yeah, US-based ako), naghanap ako ng replacement para sa lumang wristband ng Swatch ko doon sa Greenhills tsaka sa Trinoma, yung itinitinda sa akin yung flexible metal...'di siya pwede sa classic design, no?

How 'bout cargo pants, trump cards, and Funny Komiks? HA!!!
