Singer-songwriter Ogie Alcasid can hardly believe he will soon be singing in front of a live full-house audience. The OPM icon, who should be halfway across the Pacific Ocean by now, is bound for the West Coast, where tickets have almost sold out to his three night-concert for Filipino-American communities starting Sunday, March 26.

'It's been two years na tayong lahat ay nasa bahay lang and, of course, working under very, very strict health protocols. But as far as the live entertainment is concerned, ngayon lang talaga nagsisimula for us,' Ogie da Pogi, as one of his famous nicknames go, enthused in a pre-departure digital media conference.
