BLEACHERS BREW EST. MAY 2006

Someone asked me how my blog and newspaper column came to be titled "Bleachers Brew". It's like this, it's an amalgam of sorts of two things: The bleachers area in the stadium/arena where I used to sit when I would watch baseball, football, and basketball games and Miles Davis' great jazz album Bitches Brew. That's how it got culled together. I originally planned on calling it "The View from the Big Chair" that is a nod to Tears For Fear's second album, Songs from the Big Chair. So there.

Get ready for the 2010 Ateneo Sports Calendar


Outtakes from the shoot. Top: With the Swimming Team: Sean, Bianca, and Kats (and me sitting in for Evans).


Below: The Blue Babble Battalion's Gico and the Men's Volleyball Team's Julborg.

Yes, it will be out this December 2009.

Am having real fun with this improv shoot. Hope you like the results. It's a different from the artsy direction we took for the 2009 calendar. These are not the pics. They're just outtakes. Watch out for more details in the next few days.

Featured teams:
Men's - basketball, football, volleyball, badminton, judo, swimming, fencing, and tennis.
Women's - volleyball, swimming, fencing, tennis, judo, and chess. And the Blue Babble Battalion. There could be more as I hope they make it.

The shot we're using for the combined swimming teams is something I wanted to do for the 2009 calendar but didn't seem to work out. This year -- well, I am insisting on it and trust me, it looks fab!

For those who are asking who from the women's volleyball team -- well, it's Gretch, Dzi, Fille, and Jem. Kara, I'm asking her to be on the cover. Hahaha.
