Yeah, we know youâre still reeling from the relentless onslaught of concerts this whole year. We are, too. 2012 snuck up on us when we werenât looking, and stole our hearts along with our wallets. If this year was any proof, more and more foreign artists seem to be realizing just how much Filipinos love a good show, with concerts scheduled almost every week (or, during âpeak months,â two to three per week!).

The weather forecast predicts rain for the coming months. The concert forecast, meanwhile, promises Pinoy concertgoers their first taste of snow in August. Snow Patrol, that is.

Manila is in for another wave of concerts this stormy season, with August promising an incredible rock feat: Three bands thundering in the Big Dome in a span of four days.
