May nakausap akong taga-mindanao, mga parents pala ang gumastos pa para makasali at makasama ang mga anak nila. Kunti lang support from LGU.
REy,
i know what im talkin about…alam ko rin technicalities na sinasabi mo.. kaya nga nde nanalo sinulog nyo sa festival nyo mismo eh…ngayon lang kayo panalo..lets see next year…
one more thing nga pala guys…nag show down nga pala ang Sinulog at Dinagyang sa Isabela last May 5, 2006…and guess what..a big BOOOOO lang napala nila from the audiences…by cindy of ILO_ILO
WOW talagang magaling ang mga taga ilo-ilo noh?? Is this true mga taga Lumad?? I wonder what kind of festival/place na mag BOOOO nang mga guest contingent,di ba greatful dapat sila dahil inimbeta ang mga winner nang aliwan?..because this is not a sporting or a lowly event..Imagine a cultural dance or shall we say an offering ritual is being boooed by this isabelan crowd??Ano ba ito mga walang pinag-aralan? You are shouting VIVA PIT SENYOR and instead of claps you will heared this crowd boooing ur performance??..Well if that’s the case the people from that place has a great taste of dancing/artistry and rituals better than the big cities because what i observed the manila and cebu crowd was really amazed of what they saw from Lumad Basakanon..How true is this incident?? Amidst the controversies of the aliwan festival we should learn how to appreciate our fellow filipinos especially if that’s a religious activity..Sinulog is not just a mere dance it is an offering dance to the Lord, its not for the price but for the glory of Santo Nino de Cebu..
Wahahahahaha Cindy joker ka ba sa peryahan or bingi ka lang…
nakakatawa ka naman kahit isa walang nag BOOOOOOOOO sa amin sa Isabela, ano ba naman yan gumagawa ng sariling kwento, kalahi mo lola Basyang noh! hehehehehehehe
Cindy b4 u judge sa out come ng Sinulog 2006 make some reseach kung bakit d naka pasok sa top 5 yong LUMAD BASKANON if marunong kang mag basa OK…..
Pag katapus ng show namin sa Isabela tuwang tuwa nga yong mga eskorts namin yong mga tanods, police, and other city officials na sumabay sa parada namin… proud sila kasi sa oras na yon naging part sila sa contingent ng LUMAD BASAKANON… ohhhh Cindy reply naman yong magandang kwento ha….
Kahit itanong nyo sa mga tao ng Isabela if may nag BOOOOOOOOO sa LUMAD BASAKANON ang naririnig lang namin doon ay clap3x in every change of steps, formation and props…
If may nag BOOOOOO nasa loob lang yan ng mga DINAGYANG naiingit lang kayo kasi dami nyong sinasabi before the competition, eh natalo kayo kaya ganun lang yan…. ^_^
Zaldy, Ano ba ang expertise mo? Ano ba ang natapos mo? Para kang bata na under 12 eh! Bading ka siguro!
Hindi ito contest ha….pero tatlo sa Iloilo contingents ang invited sa Independence Day Celebrations. That means Iloilo festivals are worth watching.
Naiingit lang kayo dahil hindi kayo kasali diyan. ako nakasali pa kahit tingnan mo pa sa picture.
Luis kasali kaya tong LUMAD BASAKANON kaya lang may nauunang booking sa Dipolog…
Luis anong bading? kaw siguro multong bakla……. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Zaldy…nde kami kagaya nyong mga udong na marunong gumawa ng kwento..wla naman akong pakialam kng ano man kwento mo tungkol sa tribo nyo…nde question d2 kng marunong bumasa ang tao..grade 1 nga marunong na bumasa eh…alam ko na ginagawa tong festivals to ofeer thanks to the Lord…im not questioning that…hindi bat may mga judges in those events..kasi tinitingnan nila ang performance ng mga sumasayaw.. at anong dance steps pinagmamalaki nyo Zaldy??? sayaw pambata? mukhang pinaglumaan na..ay naku lolo zaldy bago ka mag react dyan at gumawa ng sarili mong version…itanong mo kaya sa lahat ng taga isabela kng clappings maririnig mo dun..yun eh kng andoon ka nga.. hindi naman kasalanan kng mag BOO mga tao dun..lalo na kng “feeling magaling” lang naman nagpeperform…the fact still remains na hindi kayo panalo sa sarili nyong festivals kasi hindi kayo marunong sumunod sa mga technicalities ng festivals nyo….
syangapala feeling ko bading tong si zaldy..putak ng putak eh..talo pa ang babae…wahahahahaha…magkano ba natanggap mo sa 1M na nde naman dapat sa inyo? lols
Wahahahaha putak ng putak eh ikaw story ng story dyan ka lang magaling lola basyang Cindy…
Talo lang kayo sa ALIWAN dami mo pang pakulo… Baket ba sa festival ng Sinulog sayaw lang ba ang pag babasihan? wahahahahaha… Sayawan festival ba tong sinalihan namin baka naliligaw kami?
Pano Cindy tong Sinulog hindi lang sayawan ritual ito to give thanks to our holy child Sto. Niño… kaya d kami nag concentrate sa dancing lang… Kaya nga unique yong Palabas namin d katulad sa inyo sayawan ng sayawan takbohan ng takbohan parang play ground demonstration kahit d meaningful yong props ginagamit parin or ano pa dyan sa Palabas.
Malaki laki rin yong natanggap namin sa 1M Cindy mamatay ka sa inggit kasi nasa amin yon. Wahahahahaha
Siguro Cindy nasa state of shock ka pa rin noh, d mo parin matanggap yong pag katalo nyo, Laki kasi ng expectation nyo na makuha yong CHAMPION, eh paano sumali kasi yong SINULOG kaya dont blame us na natalo kayo, ok…. ^_^
hello people!
lumad basakanon already had accepted invitation from dipolog before the aliwan took place. it would be on june 10 this year.
it would be very unkind for us to cancel the engagement. at syempre may tour pagkatapos.
ganyan na ba talaga katindi ang desire ninyo na mapanood ang lumad basakanon? please just wait when the right time comes…..
pero kung gusto nyong mag sponsor ng plane tickets from dipolog to manila, then who are we to refuse…..
hi cindy!
lahat ng dancers ng lumad basakanon ay bago na ang mga cell phones.
please tulungan mo naman kami……
paano ba namin uubusin ang ISANG MILYON????
ayyyyyyyyyyy! ang cute ko talaga……. hi hi hi hi hi hi…….
since the 80’s, nakapag tour na ako sa mga places kung saan merong mga festivals. that includes of course ati-atihan, dinagyang, marajao-karajao, lanzones, maskara, pinta flores, and sinulog.
among those i mentioned, maskara and pinta flores are becoming more colorful while lanzones, marajao-karajao and sinulog are getting more exciting every year.
the others lose their identity. they tend to perform jazzy steps while wala namang jazz festival sa bansa, and ang beat nila hindi na iyong original or basic ng kanilang festival kundi patterned from techno or disco music na kulang na lang ay lyrics.
i don’t intend to offend anybody but this is just an honest comment.
we’re talking about philippine festivals, people! LET’S BE REAL!
TRUTH HURTS!
the truth is panalo na ang cebu.
to iloilo…… it hurts……. hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu….. waaaaaaaaaaa!
cute pa rin ako…. yeheyyyyyyyy……
hello to honest people!
wala pong naganap na showdown sa isabela dahil ang dinagyang hanggang sa kalye lang sila. hindi kasi magkasya ang malalaki nilang props sa entrance ng gym.
kawawa naman….. hindi kasi creative……. hindi kayang gumawa ng props na naitatago……
hahayyyyy…..
sana maitago ko rin na cute ako….. hi hi hi hi hi hi hi hi hi hi hi hi
hi cindy!
how i wish cute ka rin….
kaya lang hindi eh……
kawawa naman ako……nag iisang cute sa mundo……… hu hu hu hu hu
to caloocan drum and bugle corp!
idol ko na rin kayo ngayon.

Kala ko sa ALIWAN magkakaisa yong mga festivals, yon pala hindi…
Sana po magkakaisa tayong lahat, pakikita sa boung mundo na may magandang ibat ibang festivals at cultura tayo…
Salamat pala kay Sir Dodong at Noy Dinnes sa kanilang mga guidance, kung ala kayo hindi ganun katindi at hindi namin makukuha yong Sinulog 2004-2006 BEST in INSTRUMENTALIST… from CADENCE DBC LUMAD BASAKANONS INSTRUMENTALISTS…

ang ganda ng second edition of baliwan festival sa bhyo kagabi.
congrats eugene.
hinakot mo lahat ng awards.
We were there during the aliwan festival this year and were awed by the great performances of the different festivals in the philippines. The work and preparations behind every group is clearly shown in their bests. We were surprised though that Sinulog of Cebu won…
We think the Dinagyang of Iloilo won by a good margin. The festive movements and choreography is superb in the Dinagyang group. (I’m sorry Sinulog group..)

Thanks Walter for vosoting my blog and for enjoying the great show at Aliwan Fiesta. It was alao my first time to be there too. And I must say, that I am very very proud to be a Filipino after all those performances..
Mabuhay!
HI WALTER E.
walang duda sa performance…. it was great… oo…
pero jazz nga ang steps eh…..
HINDI original na PHILIPPINE festival….
hindi mo ba nabasa ang comment ni jack?????
kung sa bagay nasa california ka naman…… ok lang sa ‘yo ang jazz…… pero HINDI FILIPINO ANG JAZZ pare……
hindi ka siguro cute kung hindi mo pa maintindihan….
hi hi hi hi hi hi hi.
hi pype.
i admire the friendliness of the people from pamulinawen festival.
enjoy din ako nung nagcelebrate ang iba pagkatapos ng announcement of winners, at nagsisigaw pa na “TALO’NG ILOILO!” (exact words ‘yon ha, hindi ko gawa-gawa lang) lalo na ‘yong naka white shirt na nag accept ng award nyo for the float category.
pakisabi na cute din siya.
hi hi hi hi hi.
Friendly po lahat ng contingent maliban sa mga Ilonggo…
Mga Ilonggo itom ug kunot asa na inyong mga comments oi!
I agree with the observations of Walter during the Aliwan Fiesta. I was there too, and I can say, performance- and choreography-wise malayong di hamak ang Dinagyang kesa Sinulog. Their (Dinagyang contingent) movements were precised and the energy level is superb. That’s why we were surprised why Sinulog won! (sorry Sinulog group). I’ve been watching Aliwan Fiesta since 2003 and the Dinagyang Festival never failed me in my expectations.
Anyway, the judges have spoken and the Ilonggo group have humbly accepted their defeat as what I’ve read in the previous posts. Let’s leave it that way and let’s move on.
Also, I would like to congratulate the other festivals who did their best in entertaining the spectators. Most especially noted were the Ilonggo festivals (Pintados de Passi, Babaylan, Tultugan and Kahilwayan festivals). Makikita mo talaga ang overwhelming response ng audience after their presentation. It left the audience in awe.
Truly Aliwan Fiesta amazes me. More power. See you next year.

Oh yeah Dinagyang the jazz festival of the philippines…
mali ka dyan zal ‘di cute.
friendly naman iyong taga passi, at santa barbara na taga iloilo rin.
bakit kaya ganyan ang dinagyang?
PARA SILANG NASASAKTAN………
ayyyyy! hi hi hi hi hi .
hi cute na mario gomez!
nandito ka rin pala.
hoy mareng lugi!
lokong bakla lang ang nagsasabing ang jazz ay festival ng pilipinas.
parang kino-confirm mo na’ng talo talaga ang dinagyang.
ang cute naman.
Venus tutuo naman na jazz yong sayaw ng taga DINAGYANG…
nawala na sila sa sariling festival nila, para daw unique yong style nila kaya sila nag jazz. Sana nag coke nalang sila, cheap yong jazz eh… hahahahahahahahahahahahaha
Ayusin nyo naman ang mga grammar at spelling nyo! Kahit salitang tagalog hindi pa marunong mag-spell. Hindi kayo pwedeng paniwalaan kapag ganyan kayo.
The meaning of JAZZ is a big band dance music.
ahhhh big band dance music ganun nga ginawa ng DINAGYANG, vocalist nalang kulang hehehehehe…
We were on a vacation (our group of 10) in Manila last April and we chanced upon Aliwan Fiesta at that time. We positioned ourselves at the Quirino grandstand to catch a glimpse of the different festivals participating.
Of the 27 contingents who participated, we were really amazed and mesmerized at how the Dinagyang Festival contingent performed. They moved in unison, danced with grace and composure. The choreography was superb. Their costumes were beautifully done while their props were marvelous. And this group was very disciplined.
And we concluded that they should be on top. However, to our dismay, they didn’t get the top plum. Anyway that’s the judges decision.
To us, the performance of the Dinagyang Festival group is an example of how a Philippine fiesta is made, conducted and perfected. We hope the other festivals of the country can emulate the Dinagyang Festival.
Furthermore, we also noticed that the festivals of Region 6 (Babaylan, Pintados, Tultugan and Kahilwayan Festivals) were outstanding – from conceptualization, to the production, up to the delivery of their respective performances. Kudos too to the intelligent and talented choreographers who made all of these possible. Truly, these tribes really knows the very essence of “ALIWAN”.
CONGRATULATIONS to the winners and to the other festivals who did their best.
We were hoping to witness the Dinagyang Festival 2007 in Iloilo and be back again to the grandest fiesta in the Philippines – the Aliwan Fiesta.
MABUHAY and more power Philippine festivals.

Venus,
PANGIT lang talaga ang makapal ang mukha na sabihin sa madla na maganda sila lalo na kng hindi naman sila nakikita ng personal… ganun ka rin ba miss?
To tell you frankly…we humbly accepted the defeat…eventhough its quite obvious WHO the real winner should be…who care about the 1M? we were talking about fairness and justice here darling…
And to tell you miss…baka wla ka pa sa kalingkingan ko kung magkita tayo..nakakatawa ka tlaga…sabagay teenager ka lang yata eh..no wonder ganyan ka makaasta…goodluck sa promotion mo ng kagandahan mo!
wla poh ba pix ng pamulinawen fest>?????

To all the people!!!
I am not from cebu.i’ve watched sinulog every year, and i found out that lumad basakanon is a unique group. they had a superb performance every sinulog.Sad to say, sinulog 2006 was a bad year for lumad basakanon because they were given a 20 points deduction from their average score, because of certain technicalities. If they were not deducted of 20 points, they would came out as the grand champions in the Sinulog Free Interpretation Category and that would put them as Grand Slam.Anyhow, as to the result of the Aliwan Festival, we have to accept the decisions and the verdict of the judges.There are really people who can not accept defeat.Lets be professional enough in dealing and in accepting defeat.You know what, In joining a contest, it is not just by winning by its about having a good time.There should always be a winner and a loser.We have to accept the fact that others lost in the contest and others has to win.Why is it that other people, when they post their comments, they have to show their unprofessionalism and for not being cultured. If that would be your behaviour, you are just showing that parents had a poor up bringing of their childrens. Dont tell me that your parents raised you that way.I would say that all the contingents that joined that 2006 ALIWAN FESTIVAL were all great with superb performances, but as what i have said, it wa a contest that would have winners.Probably, the judges if not all, did not like the performances of other groups, that’s why they gave poor ratings to some. Lets unite for a better Philippines and for a better Fetivals in the future. We are not going to show our ignorance and foolishness to the world. Lets be human enough,guided with a strong sense of profissionalism.
Thank you very much and more power.
KIM
hi nicx mizzz na kita luv u so much ”taga ilo-ilo mga hambug”hindi marunong tumanggap na pagkataloh!!!!!!!!!!!! from sinulog dancer
I really like the performance of the Dinagyang festival during the Aliwan fiesta. I was glued to their performance from the start to finish. They moved in unison with a festive choreography. Overall production was perfected. They deserve to the champion.
CONGRATS AND MORE POWER!!!
