Winners of Randy Jackson's "ABDC" join Gary V's Celebration

They're the highly celebrated dance group who recently performed during the Lakers' halftime show at Staples Center, appeared during the MTV Movie Awards and have been trekking the globe following their highly acclaimed fame and following from their recent victory on Randy Jackson's America's Best Dance Crew reality MTV series. They've won the hearts of millions of MTV viewers through their uniquely choreographed dance routines and seamless performances and on Saturday, June 7th, 2008, they will be at Gary Valenciano's 25th anniversary celebration at the Nokia Theater along with Martin Nievera and Apl.de.Ap of the Black Eyed Peas.

They are the Jabbawockeez.

Prior to their victory on Randy Jackson's "America's Best Dance Crew", the group also performed and competed on "America's Got Talent." Most popular among the youth, the Jabbawockeez are recognized for their unique style of dance and the marionette masks they wear while performing.

After their June 7th, the celebration will continue in Stockton on June 13th at the Stockton Arena.

Five of the ten original members of the Jabbawockeez will be joining the Filipino-American community's celebration. The members are Kevin Brewer, Rainen Paguio, Phil Tayag, Chris Gatdula and a surprise member of the group.

Numerous posters and advertisements have been placed all around Northern and Southern California Filipino establishments to advertise Gary Valenciano's 25th Anniversary tour. Calls have been pouring in from customers who want to reserve and buy their seats at the beautiful Nokia Theater, Stockton Arena and Comcast Arena. Promotional teams have been actively spreading the word to fans, friends and fellow Filipinos. Concert goers have been cheerfully responding to Gary's concert celebrations.

People not familiar with Edgardo Jose Santiago Valenciano, most popularly known as Gary V and "Mr. Pure Energy", might wonder what's the big deal behind his concerts. He's a father of three, a loving husband, a man of faith, charity work and a respected musical performer who has been able to give his all, regardless of the Type 1 diabetes he's been coping with for the past three decades. Gary has entertained Filipinos across the globe, bridging them together through his musical hits, songs of praise and love. His anniversary celebration is in honor of his fans and all the forces, which made his career possible.

In a world of chaotic politics, dwindling home values, uneasy economy and the decreasing dollar, Filipinos who naturally look for the positive in each situation are coping with the changes and are looking for a fresh breath of energy. That's where Gary V fills the need for an escape, link to their "home" and reason to shout for joy.

"Take Me Out of the Dark", "Sana Maulit Muli", "How Did You Know", "Lead Me Lord", "Kailangan Kita", "Hataw Na" and "Di Na Natuto" are just some of the musical hits Gary will be delivering through stellar performances on June 7 at the Nokia Theater and June 13 at the Stockton Arena. They're concluding the tour in Seattle on June 15.

After his concert on June 7 at the Nokia Theater in Los Angeles, Gary V, the Jabbwockeez, and Martin Nievera will perform up north at the Stockton Arena on June 13.

THE REBIRTH OF GARY V at 25

There are more than just Gary V's boyish good looks on the cover of his newest album 'Rebirth'. Just released under Universal Records, it is the 25th in a remarkable 25-year career the man known as Mr. Pure Energy celebrates this year.

The agelessness wells from a clarity of purpose that rings like a pure note. While his electrifying live performances dares viewers to remain stuck to their seats or unmoved by the grace of the music he creates, he remains solidly focused on inspiring others to be the better person they never realized they could be.

"I appreciate life more because of your work, and how inspiring it is," wrote Eric Sembrano on the message board of Gary's website (www.garyv.com). Eric, a registered nurse from Los Angeles, California, mused, "How easily we forget that there are other people that have worse problems than ours. Others complain about relationships, some complain about financial hardships, and others are just not satisfied with their lives. In reality, I have patients who can't even scratch their noses; are bedridden and just don't have the quality of life that most people have. I just want to thank you for all the humanitarian work that you've done, you bring so much joy and happiness to everyone and that is the greatest gift that you have."

For his part, Rainier Julius of Cebu confessed, "I always remember your message, 'Sometimes we are hit in the highest peak and the deepest valleys of our life, but don't forget that those valleys are needed to appreciate the great heights of that life.' Dyan ko hinuhugot ang lakas ko pag may problema ako."

Gary's new album, 'Rebirth' explores new depths of the wellspring that sustains him and the audience he has always held in high esteem. It has 15 tracks consisting of interpretations of some of Gary's favorite and most meaningful songs like Mandy Moore's "Only Hope," a Michael English song originally recorded by Lea Salonga called "Mary Did You Know," and his perennial show-stopping version of the classics "Lean on Me" and "Stand by Me" as well as some of the most emotive songs including "He Won't Let Go," and "When I Hear You Call," both instant classics.

"Rebirth is not about trends but rather it hopes to cater to the rhythms and beats, harmonies and melodies played out in real life, filtered by emotions nestled in the human heart," Gary writes in the liner notes.

Even as 'Rebirth' soars with the evocative, it also rips out the beats that make every Gary album jump for joy. In fact, son Gabriel's remix of "Shout for Joy" is both exhilarating and propulsive and gives props to Michael Jackson's "Wanna Be Starting Something." The self-penned "Ohhh" is old school funk that has Gary flawlessly scatting midway.

Fittingly, 'Rebirth,' which opens with "Only Hope," ends with a stripped-down acoustic version of the same track.

While fans had a sneak peek of 'Rebirth' while it was still in the works via pod casts on Gary's website, the full album was launched on April 13 on 'ASAP 08,' ABS-CBN's Sunday noontime variety show.

Fans abroad will have their taste of 'Rebirth' as Gary leaves for the first leg of his 2008 World Tour to coincide with his Silver Anniversary. He is scheduled for spectacular shows on June 7, at the Nokia Theater in Los Angeles; June 13 at the Stockton Arena in Stockton, and June 15 at the Comcast Arena in Seattle Washington. Gary's 25th Anniversary American tour is made possible by State Farm Insurance, Tribune USA, Alas Cargo, Home Sweet Home Improvement Inc., PH Care, Mami King, SM Realtors, Smart Pinoy and Western Union. B&B Management, All Access Promotions and Kewlit Co Productions are the forces that proudly stand behind Gary's milestone celebrations at the prestigious venues. Gary will perform with sons Paolo and Gabriel together with Jason and Joshua Zamora and Mico Aytona, his band Powerplay and musical director Mon Faustino, and very special guest Martin Nievera.
