We challenged ourselves on taking the risk by joining in some competitions and prove that we have somehow improved in our musicality and chemistry as a group. Some place here on our area has this baranggay fiesta celebration wherein one of the highlights of their week-long celebration is the battle of the band. So we practiced hard, selecting and choosing the best songs to play on the competition and practice again and again until we got it all right.

Our main goal was to play the song neatly and accurately as the original song was. We performed just as if we were practicing, not much of showmanship and show-off the song like the original artist's performance.
To our surprise we got the judges heart! There's this feeling inside you that you cannot explain well when you're the champion. Even the cash prize seemed to be a bit low, winning boost your pride showing everybody that even without that high-end musical instruments, you can play the music with your heart and sound like the original.
There's no harm in trying, nothing to lose but the time and effort for practicing and working harder to make your music much better and better, experimenting what's good, better and best.
