The theme park concept was the draw for Salo-Salo Fest, which promised unlimited rides to go with a generous lineup made up of both OPM legends, up-and-coming stars, and even a couple of foreign acts.
MANILA, Philippines – Two years without live music is way too long, so one can imagine the collective sigh of relief from musicians, fans, and the industry when gigs and concerts slowly but surely returned this year.
If you think about it, theme parks are the perfect venue for music festivals. You have everything that a music festival needs: a wide selection of food and drinks , built-in activities , and perhaps most importantly, actual bathrooms – no disgusting portaloos with endless queues.Salo-Salo Fest had a two-stage set-up, which seemed key to the festival not going overtime as these events tend to do.
Each stage was a decidedly different experience so it actually felt like you were going to two different music festivals. The connecting thread, of course, was the theme park’s rides.Shuttling from one stage to another, it was impossible to ignore the rollercoasters, the spinning pendulum, the acrobatic planes. Getting on one meant in-between sets was a trip.
“I just want to say that for two years you watched me on your tablets, your phones…and it’s so nice to be here right now,” he said.
