Little trivia:

Nag basa2 ko ginagmay about JDLC and I came across an article from Philstar, an interview with JDLC sometime in 2008.

Then Hanopol makes a stunning revelation: “Nag-open pa kami noon sa Pink Floyd sa Hakone.”

I guess it was the open-air festival at the Hakone Aphrodite — “Seikei Gakuen Jofudai” by Lake Ashi. So, what was it like to open for Floyd?

“Wow, ang ganda!” Pepe enthuses. “Ibang klase ang Pink Floyd ’no. Panahon ng ‘Atom Heart Mother’ and tsaka ‘Ummagumma’ ’yun eh. Umaakyat nga ’yung fog pag parteng crescendo.”

I reckon this is Mike and Pepe's time with there former band Speed, Glue, and Shinki. circa 1971-72. Before forming JDLC mark III in 1973. Sa japan ni sikat ang Speed, Glue and Shinki. gitarisa nila kay hapon. si Shinki Chen. Three-piece band gihapon.

Pink Floyd did a show in Hakone Aphrodite, Hakone, Japan in Aug. 06, 1971.
