Hey, there! Welcome to Bottoms Up Events blog!

This will serve as an event/party information board and reviewer. We will be advertising upcoming events as well as reviewing how the events themselves turned out. We’ll be detailing things like who organized the event, where it was held, when it was held, if it was themed or not, if there were any sponsors, the general sense of the event considering the DJ, taste of music, approximated numbers of people in attendance, price of the tickets, price, quality, and range of the food and/or drinks available, and other things such as ease of finding parking space. We will also be including a photo corner where pictures captured from the event by us or some of our friends will be uploaded.

Feel free to look around and enjoy this blog. Come back often, too! And don’t forget to tell your friends about it!

MODIFY: A Bottoms Up Review

The Junior Philippine Economics Society (JPES) organized Modify, a car show, last July 3. It was a fund-raising event to fund more projects for the Economics students and was held at the Grove by Rockwell in Libis. It was pretty well promoted, the organizers made use of tarps, streamers, online promo mats, and radio plugs on Magic, Wave, and 99.5. They even made use of their speedster bus at one point to rake the people in. The event was sponsored by various companies such as PLDT’s myDSL, the Bar, and ETC. The party was themed around the checkered flag usually linked to racing, so guests had to come in either black and/or white attire. It was a pretty lively event although the venue was not that accessible to people who didn’t want to bring a car or did not know how to get there. However, the Grove by Rockwell did have an upside to it, too, as it hasn’t been overused by the party scene yet. Lighting in the car show was a little problematic as they relied solely on the venue’s lamp posts making it hard to fully appreciate the cars on display but the lights used in the party itself were all right. Similarly, in terms of music, they kind of fell short in the car show portion of the night since they didn’t make use of any, actually as it seemed like they focused so much on the cars but the choice of music during the party was great.
