In the monastery, monks sing no love songs, nor folk songs, nor hiphop songs, nor rap songs but only Gregorian Chants...
It's only during the monks' home visits when they are given a chance to sing out with all their might songs of these genres...
During my 2006 home visit to the Philippines, i was given an opportunity not only to dine out with my family and friends, go on pilgrimages to historical-holy places, but also to try sing these songs of the ordinary....
the following images were all taken during those late- hour nights spent on those Videoke bars with my foster bro and friends in manila and as well as in naga city Bikol.
