The Ventures performed at the Dusit Thani Hotel in Manila on January 17, 2012. They made a very quick trip from Tokyo to Manila in order to participate in this event. The group visited Manila back in September 2010 with the standard Japan summer line-up with Gerry McGee on Lead, but this time of course, it was Nokie on Lead. There is an article written by RJ (Ramon Jacinto) who promoted this concert, telling about how The Ventures influenced his life. We will be posting a link here shortly so you can read the article and see the photos. Enjoy!
