I've been terribly missing "Xaymaca", an old reggae club along Timog in QC. Since it closed down, we have not found a chill out bar where there's no uptight dress code.
Dear JT - This post is for you!
JT, my friend who's now based in Dubai, has been asking me if there are any other clubs now in the Metro that comes close to Xaymaca. We used to party at Xaymaca on Saturday nights and always end up having a grand time! Our favorite band has always been Coffee Break Island (CBI) and I really love it when they do covers for Sublime and 311! My friends Karen and Jon used to tease me that I went on a treadmill because I am always dripping in sweat from dancing at Xaymaca whenever CBI plays. ( Oh I miss our early twenties days!)
Anyhoo, this weekend I went to Makati to meet up with my friends who I have not seen in such a long time and we decided to go to this place called : BSide!
Band Played:
"Pass the dutchie on the left hand side...Pass the dutchie on the left hand side..."
Karen (screaming to me):
"That's your song!"
When this lead singer came out wearing leopard print tights, we just knew Karen and I had to go inside and get a clearer picture!
The band Jeepney Joyride!

So JT, if you're reading this post, when you come home we have a new place to go to! :)
