MUSIC LYF: Everyone Wants To See "The Lumineers"

Perhaps some people are just plainly curious about what the buzz is. Or maybe a good promo team is backing this phenomenal folk-rock group act called The Lumineers. The fact that tickets to their shows sell like hotcakes to every stop means that the interest is far from just the result of bandwagon phenomenon. The group has been capturing audiences as the successful release of their self-titled debut album last year proved they have what it takes to conquer and draw in more people. As publicly stated, "A big part of The Lumineers story is the amount of concert tickets the band has sold," with their early 2013 headline shows in the Northeastern US and tours of UK, Europe, Japan and Australia quickly sold out. It is said that they packed every US show they have performed in last year, with the tickets gone within hours. Released by MCA Music for the Philippine market in late January, The Lumineers' first album peaked at number 8 on the Billboard 200 chart on strength of the singles, "Ho Hey" and "Stubborn Love". Critic Robert Copsey of Digital Spy rated the album positively, stating, "One act wholly deserving of riding the rustic folk-pop revival wave are The Lumineers. Since forming in 2005, the Colorado-based trios were largely ignored until word of their catchy banjo-pop spread with the help of the lead single 'Ho Hey', a number about smug love set to marching drums."

Its The Morning Rush Book 2! Anyenyenyenye!

If you are a rusher, you can relate to the title, and what I mean of "Rusher" is a loyal listener of the trending radio show of Chico, Delamar, and Gino from RX 93.1. The Morning Rush has been in the radio for more than a decade, which dates back to the 90's and now has evolved into a naughty and nice radio show from the tandem of Chico and Delamar and now came the  new jock to make the radio trinity. 

Yes, indeed I am a rusher for about two years now, and loved the trio for their unlikely chemistry and their team ups which also made them a sought after hosts in many events that I have been to. The first book was a success with the support of loyal rushers and also by the public because of the funny and witty lists which has been part of the morning rush topics where the listeners were able to contribute.
