Just came from a rock concert held at the football field at Burnham Park, Baguio City, with the Melvin Jones Grandstand as the stage for the country’s best rock bands. The concert is aptly dubbed Rock Royalty featuring the most popular rock bands in the Philippines. The Baguio concert is but one leg of a nationwide tour that kicked off in Legazpi and Naga earlier this year.
