Did we even watch the same performance or what because from the moment they entered that stage, they were on fire, so underwhelming doesn't really sit right with me 🤔
Sa pinas man yan or sa ibang bansa, SB19 never performs half heartedly. They do their craft with so much passion & intention. They even curated their setlist not only to show their versatility, but also to cater different audiences.
Ewan ko lang sa inyo ah, pero kahit as a fan, I never expected them to show up their with bonggang props, or costumes, or even stage set coz first and foremost, that's a big music festival. Aside sa little to none ang control ng esbi sa production, it's their first time. They're doing it pa as an independent company. They have to take that into consideration PLUS the weather.
I know they'll wow the audience, fan or casuals, with their songs and talent alone and THAT THEY DID so what is the issue here? 🤦♀️
From local stages to global performances, @SB19Official definitely has given A'TIN moments worth remembering. ❤️
Look back to some of your faves while listening to your own setlist. Just search “My SB19 Setlist” only on Spotify.
you started with how SB19's performance lacked pinoy representation, then suddenly it's about their fandom set your expectations high. ano ba talaga?
if some fans acted arrogantly or set unrealistic expectations for you, then that's another issue entirely. that might explain why you expected more, but it doesn't support your claim that the performance lacked pinoy representation. huwag mong gawing basis yung issue mo sa fandom para i-criticize yung performance, bc those are two completely different conversations.
and yes, your opinion is subjective. mine is too. but saying "it's subjective" doesn't really address the point i raised. i'm not questioning whether you're allowed to have an opinion, i'm questioning the reasoning behind it.
hindi ko alam bakit may mga tao talaga na sinisira yung safe space ng boys which is yung sarili nila FB HUB. Alam ko naman na nang hahatak kayo para may mga mag subscribe pero wag nyo idaan sa misinoformation kasi di nyo alam magiging impact nun sa artist. papansin talaga kayo.
ang tanga naman ng take na 'to.
SB19 spent almost an hour performing mostly filipino songs on one of the biggest music festivals in the world. their styling even incorporated indigenous-inspired elements as a tribute to filipino culture. ano 'to, kailangan ba nilang mag bahag at mag-kutsinta on stage para lang masabi ninyong may representation?
they proudly stood on that stage as a filipino group.
THAT IS ALREADY A REPRESENTATION.
hindi yan nasusukat lang sa dami ng cultural references na kaya mong isiksik sa isang set, kundi sa kakayahan mong dalhin ang sariling musika sa global stage and prove that it belongs there.
also, this is lollapalooza. baka nakakalimutan niyo kung anong klaseng event 'to. it's a global music festival that brings together ppl from different countries and musical backgrounds. many in the crowd were seeing SB19 for the very first time. to win over a crowd that diverse, they need smart festival pacing, undeniable talent, and professional execution, not over-the-top, forced theatrics just to satisfy your personal definition of "gigil."
kaya hirap na hirap tayong umusad sa international scene, eh. hilig ninyong ikahon ang opm sa sarili ninyong unrealistic standards, tapos kayo pa ang unang magrereklamo na stagnant ang industriya. kayo rin ang mga unang naghahanap ng mali, kahit wala naman kayong naiambag kundi maasim na opinyon dito sa x.
casual listener din naman ako, which is why i find this argument weird. the setlist was literally designed to reach people beyond the fandom. they performed some of their biggest, most accessible songs instead of filling the set with deep cuts that only fans would know. that's literally how you introduce yourself at a festival.
as for the costumes, lollapalooza isn't a costume competition. most artists perform in outfits that let them move comfortably bc the focus is the live performance. i'd rather watch a group deliver live vocals and own the stage than rely on flashy outfits to make an impression.
at isa pa, wag na tayong mag lokohan gamit yang "as a casual" card. kasi pag chineck naman ang account, very obvious na may iba kang mas pinapaboran. wala namang masama don, pero don't act like you're coming from a completely neutral standpoint. if you're gonna critique, at least be upfront about where you're coming from. otherwise, ang dating tuloy, hindi ka na nag-a-assess ng performance, parang naghahanap ka na lang ng anggulo para i-downplay yung achievement nila.
