The Vikings are coming.

Three of the more popular Manila bands will invade the city this November with the Crows & Vikings Tour.

The Baguio leg of the tour which will headline Typecast and the Valley of Chrome will also have the punk band The Republicats.

“The Baguio leg will be a little different and special since we will be having the Republicats, actually coming back again,” said Baguio leg organizer Felix Deyta, Jr.

The Republicats was last here in August 10 where they basked with local artists and Vagabond Albert Ascona of The Vagabonds and Eddie Siojo at Pasa-Kalye.

Deyta said that the Baguio leg will be the 10th of the 15 legs of the Luzon portion of the tour which will be launched on Oct 20 at Sitio Tr3s Grill in Malolos, Bulacan and ends on December 15.

Organized by his Trabahador and e-Pub, the Baguio leg will be at the Concoctions Bar and Resto from 8 p.m. until 12 midnight.

The bands has several hits with Typecast having Against the Rope, Valley of Chrome’s Balang Araw and Maskara, while The Republicats was behind the  hit Disconnected.

Tickets will be P200 only that is inclusive of one free drink. Three local bands and one from Dagupan are expected to join the three Manila bands during the event which will start at 8PM.

“Expect the three bands to rock Baguio and entertain our music lovers,” said Deyta, who has been behind several concerts here. His previous gigs included that of legendary Dong Abay formerly of the 90s iconic band Yano, which made Santong Kabayo Banal Na Aso one of the decades most iconic songs.  

Deyta wants also to make the Baguio leg, which has Z-Radio as official radio station, memorable with various activities during the day with the artists for them to enjoy the cool city.
