We arrived at 12 midnight after our blog night talk in SMX and arriving in Marikina Sports Complex is smooth and even that there is traffic in Marikina, we can still feel the flow of energy of the event after seeing all these rock fans waiting outside the venue. I just caught KJwan performing on stage and thanks to the media pass and all access ID, I managed to go up on stage and took some photos. I started to get excited because the organizers told me to go up on stage immediately because the stage will be close from all press/media after the awarding, because Sepultura will perform after and everyone should be out of the stage area.

After that I captured the great moments of the awarding, I'm so happy to know that the band from Baguio, EVEN, won the 1st place in the Muziklaban, I'm very impressed on their style and also performance, and I was there at the semi finals sessions and they are the last band to perform at 6UG , and the judges got blown away for listening to their music and performance act, the lead vocalist is a female, and as the judges say that time, if her band won, then their the 2nd band to be a champ with a female vocalists, I think they were referring to Fuseboxx as the 1st band to win with a female vocalists.
The awarding is smooth, winners get 10,000 pesos in cash, while the 1st place winner will receive 1 million pesos and a recording contract and plus to represent and endorese Red Horse Beer. The Muziklaban is one of the most important event in our Philippine rock history, searching for new breed of artist that will be added and contribute to the rock music scene.
