Peabo Bryson and Jeffrey Osborne,
Doing shows with Regine Velasquez !!

PEABO Bryson and Jeffrey Osborne, two of the best African-American 
balladeers, are due in Manila for a concert with Asia's Songbird Regine 
Velasquez on Nov. 10 and 11, 8 p.m., at the Araneta Coliseum.

Entitled "Celebration of Love, A Night of Love Songs, Hits, and Duets," the 
concert is another pioneering effort from Viva Concerts, the same producer 
of Regine's successful "R2K, The Concert" last summer. Bryson, Osborne, and 
Regine are expected to perform their greatest hits as well as knockout duets.
Tickets to the concert are priced at P1,500, P1,200, P600, P500, and P150, 
available at all SM Ticket Outlets, Araneta booking office, and Viva 
Entertainment Center.

"Celebration of Love" is brought to you by Viva Concerts in cooperation 
with Mossimo and Purifil.

" The Indelible Marks of Peabo & Jeffrey "
  
 
by Vina Vidal Vicent

"HE's a typhoon that will make me not want to go back home to 
\the United States," so declares singer-composer Peabo Bryson 
when asked what he thinks about the possible win of Texas 
Governor George W. Bush in the US presidential elections. 
(As of this writing, the Florida recount is still ongoing.)

Bryson voted via absentee ballot while he and fellow performer 
Jeffrey Osborne were here in the Philippines for a two-night 
concert at the Araneta Coliseum Friday and Saturday. The 
concert was an amazing shows of talent and musicality that, 
undoubtedly, only the veterans in the music business can bring.

"I hear Regine is very cute," Bryson says about their special 
concert guest, Regine Velasquez. Bryson and Osborne were 
introduced to the press upon their arrival in the country a few days 
before their performance. "I've also been told that her talent far 
exceeds her beauty. She would be more than adequate 
representation of what you have here in the Philippines in terms 
of talent," he adds.

"I think being recorded by another artist is the single greatest 
compliment that an artist can receive," Osborne says of Regine 
recording remakes of their songs on her recent album. Regine's 
performance at the concert definitely made the foreign artists 
stand up and pay attention.

Anwered by RVML 1 & 2's unofficial secretary :

Well, Viva's now making that correction in their promo.. 
They are probably afraid of being barraged by people's 
complaints after the show. I saw an ad of the concert on 
today's newspaper (Phil. Star). Peabo Bryson gets top 
billing. Then there's a note at the end: "with the special 
participation of Ms. REGINE VELASQUEZ," with a
small picture of Regine beside it.
