Masta Plann Pictures in YouTube Video with DMC World DJ Finals!

Clubbers of all ages, here are a compilation of pictures via YouTube videos on the just concluded DMC World DJ Championship – Philippine Search back-to-back with the Masta Plann Reunion Concert!

Indeed, ‘twas an unforgettable hip-hop event! Everyone was treated to a dazzling display of lights, sounds, and grooves by the competing DJs and Masta Plann at the One Esplanade near Mall of Asia! Special guests also dotted the landscape that night, including US-based DJs Mista-B and Deeandroid who flew in that day - all the way from the Land of Milk and Honey - for one of the best live mix performances I have heard to date! And I kid you not!

Of course, the who’s who in the Philippine entertainment industry were there, too! They were all led by none other than the Philippines’ Famous Man of Music – my brother - Jesse (Gonzales) Cambosa!

And rumors have it that Masta Plann is gearing up for another album – soon! Now, ain’t that an awesome news!

Hope you enjoy the pics, everyone! See you next year, y’all!

Alfred Arsua's Letter to the Filipino People!

I received a letter from a kababayan, a good friend of mine, Alfred Arsua. Like thousands of my kababayans, Alfred Arsua currently resides in the United States to work for their families back in the Philippines. He is a singer/songwriter, and was once the champion of a popular singing contest program on television, i.e., Tawag ng Tanghalan.

Alfred Arsua has requested me to publish his letter on this website, hoping that his thoughts will reach the new President of the Republic, Benigno “Noynoy” Aquino Jr., and the millions of Filipinos around the world.


Truth be told, I seldom grant such requests. After all, this is a billiards blog. A sports site on Filipino athletes and their achievements. But how could I say no to an old friend (Alfred Arsua), and a dear one (Boyong Jorge) at that? Friends, I simply cannot. And I kid you not!

So without further ado, here is Alfred Arsua’s letter – unedited - to the millions of Filipinos around the world. Alfred’s thoughts are filled with hope. Gratitude. Warmth. Sincerity. And with love. Read on, dear friends.

Alfred Arsua Image Kumusta sa inyong lahat diyan sa PIlipinas Mister AnitoKid, salamat sa iyong website at kami ay nagkakaruon ng oportunidad sa Los Angeles na iparating ang aming mga mensahe sa Pilipinas. Ako ay lumiham kay Presidente Barack Obama upang iparating ang pasasalamant ng mga Fil-Am dito sa USA sa kanyang Immigration Reform Bill na gagawin sa hinaharap. Maraming illegal immigrants na Pilipino ang makikinabang dito at malaki ang kanilang pag-asa na maging US citizen para muling makabalik diyan sa ating bayan. "Mabuti pa ang pera may tao ang tao walang pera" ay malimit na pinatututugtog sa station ng radio na DZRH. Kahit paano ay na recognize nila ang isa sa aking mga sinulat na awit na ang mensahe ay tungkol sa tibay ng loob ng Pilipino sa pagharap sa hirap na dinaranas ng bawat mamayan sa buong mundo.

Sa ngayon, ako ay nasisiyahan dahil sa isa sa aking mga awit na pinamagatan na "Mabuti pa ang pera may tao, ang tao walang pera" ay palaging pinatutugtog sa DZRH. Malaking kasiyahan ang ibinibigay sa isang tulad ko na mangaawit at manunulat ng mga awitin. Maraming salamat sa mga taga DZRH sa pagtugtog ng aking awitin.

Nais ko din parating ang aking pasasalamat sa tulong na ibinigay sa akin ni kaibigang Manuel "Ato" Jorge at ng kanyang butihing kapatid na si Enrique "Boyong" Jorge. Parehong mabuting mamayang Pilipino. Ang ating kaibigan na si Manuel Jorge ay maraming natulungan na Pilipino na bagong salta dito sa Estados Unidos upang magkaruon ng hanap-buhay. Ginagawa ito ni Manuel na walang katumbas kahit na isang kusing. Bihira ang ganitong tao na pinapatira pa ang mga bagong dating na Pinoy sa kanyang munting tahanan na libre. Hanggat sa sila ay pwede ng pakawalan upang mamuhay na sa kanilang sarili. Kudos, kaibigang Manuel, mula sa samahang Pilipino dito sa Los angeles, USA.

Ibig ko rin ibahagi sa iyo ang aking maikling pakipagsalamuha sa ating Boxer na si Manny Pacquiao. Pinalad akong maka attend sa isang misa ni Manny Pacquiao sa Las Vegas, sa tulong ng aking producer na si Imelda Papin. Inabutan ko siya ng isang rosary at sinabi ko sa kanya na Jesus loves you. Ito ay isang pagpahalaga ko sa isa sa ating world class na boxer. Di ako kilala ni Manny, pero matatandaan niya ako dahil ibig niya akong kausapin pagkatapos kong iabot ang rosary sa kanya. Agad akong lumisan pagkatapos ng misa, dahil sa dami ng kanyang mga kaibigan at kamag-anak

Dito sa Los angeles, ay marami na ang sumisilip sa iyong mga audio-video recordings sa youtube, sa sports show ng TFC aming napanuod ang iyong interview tungkol sa inyong layunin na kung paano pahusayin ang pagpapalaro ng billiard games sa ating bayan. Good-luck.

Muli Mister Anito KId and aking pasasalamat sa iyong pagtulong sa mga manunulat at mangaawit na katulad ko na dating Kampeon ng "tawag ng tanghalan". Umaasa kami na sa liham na ito ay makarating sa ating hinirang na pangulo, Benigno "noy" Aguino, ang aming dalangin na magkaruon ng liwanag ang tinatahak na daan ng ating milyon-milyon na mamayang PILIPINO sa kanyang bagong administration.

Maraming Salamat,
Kaibigang Alfred Arsua



To Alfred,

Please give my best to all our kababayans there, my friend! Hope to see some of you in the future! Dalawan ninyo ako rito, ha! Ingats kayo jan!

Your friend,
AnitoKid

Jundel Mazon aka Janno is Guinness World Series of Pool Champion!

Jundel Mazon Graphic

Outstanding form! Amazing win! Jundel Mazon is simply incredible! Jundel Mazon, aka Janno, of Negros Billiards Stable and JSY Sports, has just slaughtered Indonesia’s Irsal Nasution (10-5) to take the coveted championship and crown himself as Champion of the 2010 Guinness World Series of Pool!

Fresh from his scintillating win against World Champion Darren Appleton in the semi-finals of the 2010 Guinness World Series of Pool this very same day at Mall Taman Anggrek, Center Atrium, in Jakarta Indonesia, Jundel Mazon again found himself down by four (4) racks early on (5-1) in the finals – similar to what happened to him in the semis, i.e., a 3- rack deficit (4-1) against Darren.

And just like in the semis, the finals of the 2010 Guinness World Series of Pool was none different! Jundel Mazon again unleashed an incredible comeback – taking nine (9) straight racks! Yes, you’ve read right, everyone! Janno snatched 9 straight racks in the alternate break finals to take the championship and the $40,000 prize! For those in the know, what the Filipino pool player did was not just incredible – it’s simply one unforgettable feat! And I kid you not!

At 5-1, the hometown kid, Irsal Nasution, scratched off the break and never found his rhythm again. And Jundel Mazon did not look back! Safety after safety, excellent position plays, and superb pocketing skills were the order of the day for Jundel. The Philippine pool player’s safeties forced Irsal Nasution to use his jump cue so many times that I lost track counting! It must have been a very frustrating day for the Indonesian!

Truth be told, Jundel Mazon is no longer one of the emerging faces in the Philippine pool circuit! He has now emerged from the shadows! Jundel Mazon IS NOW one of the champions of the Pool Capital of the World! The whole world was witness to how Jundel made his mark in international pool circuit. And marked it good, he did.

Congratulations, Janno! ‘Twas one incredible win! Awesome feat you did there, kabayan! We are very proud of you! Mabuhay!
