Weekend Warrior: What to do this weekend in Manila – August 23, 2013

Welcome to Weekend Warrior, where we offer you a few ideas to kick-start your weekend of mayhem. Warriors, go forth.

Friday

Bakunawa VI: Karmic Returns (SIMILAR OBJECTS and Nights of Rizal joint album launch) at Today x Future

“~6 years is a hell of a long time to be working on the same 18 pieces of music. Maybe not long enough? In fact, we’re not even finished. In fact, nothing ever is; and we never will be. These are only approximations.

Join us as we celebrate the inevitable—the return to the blank slate. Or so we think. SimilarObjects and Nights of Rizal present: ~tilde and Karma Zero.”

Entrance is free, although copies of the albums are not. SIMILAROBJECTS “~tilde” will sell for P300 while Nights of Rizal “Karma Zero” will sell for P180.
