Ok. I know this may sound bad coming after Saturday's Concert and before the November Araneta Concert but a there are a number of observations and thoughts going thru my head while watching last Saturday.
They are:
1. It's not a duet/duo if don't sing together. Pop Quiz: How many duets did Chin/Juris do that night? Answer: Zero, i think 2. Juris could have carried the concert alone. Chin sang once or twice but didn't carry such an impact 3. I would pay to go to a solo Juris Concert. How much would people pay to hear Chin play his guitar? 4. Their guitarists weren't distinctive. Their solo parts were not overly impressive. The drummer and keyboardist were the same 5. Juris can sing duets with the best on them. She hang in there with Ogie Alcasid (Of course, the experience and confidence of Ogie can be easily seen. 6. With some more exposure< juris has great potential 7. MYMP/Juris needs a great songwriter. She sang one of her original compositions but it was too "kitchie-nadalish" for me.
My point is that, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to see where the talent lies And if it gets to the point that the band is holding back on Juris' greater success, which would be a greater injustice? For Juris to hold her future on hold or for the band to let Juris pursue a career on her own?
If I were a record label, I would make an offer to Juris before their ivory record deal expires. But it would be for Juris to go solo, and not for the full band. Then I would invest money on Juris. With her talent, it wouldn't be such a risky investment.
I am sorry if I offended the Chin fans out there. I am just stating my observations and my fearless forecast
Chin and the other band members, if you get to read this, I mean no disrespect. I know you are talented guys, too. You wouldn't reach this level if you weren't talented. But from a business point of view, that is what I see down the road..
KAHIT ANO MANGYARI SA M.Y.M.P. I'M STILL HERE... ONE OF THEIR SOLID LOYAL FANS !!... OBSERVATIONS ARE ONLY OBSERVATIONS... WE DON'T KNOW WHAT WOULD REALLY HAPPEN IN THE NEAR FUTURE... KAHIT MAUWI MAN SA BREAK UP(wag naman sana ganun kadali plz LORD) AT LEAST NAGING MAGANDANG BAHAGI SILA SA MUSIC INDUSTRY HERE IN OUR COUNTRY AND TO THE PEOPLE NA SUMU SUPPORT SA KANILA !!... GO M.Y.M.P.!!...
parang story ng freestyle ah, magsosolo dapat si jinky pero ang nangyari eh si top ang umalis.
pangit tlga ang hiwalayan... tsk tsk tsk.. :D
and siguro indeh naman puro pera ang iniisip nila, maybe its their way of thanking their fans..

to me it's more of an intelligent assessment than a fearless forecast and i agree to you a hundred and one percent. juris going solo is not a bad idea. she is a gifted artist and i think she would be better-off having a solo career.
one thing that the band could also do to improve is to get a really talented male singer/song writer. look at southborder, they have three lead vocals and they are doing really well.

It may really sound crass and rude to some people but at the end of the day, it really makes sense to get a talented male vocalist and/or songwriter.
Loyalty may look good in a sound bite but reality does bite hard. A good manager should look ahead and map out a route for the group.
In the concert, the announcer called MYMP a "duo" not a "band". Does that make sense. Does that mean the MYMP is just chin and juris? Hmmmm...
well, pinoypz macuserz, you have an, well , i wudnt say it was a very gud point, pero you got a point there. Here are somethings that I have to say about that:
1. Juris & Chin dont really do duets a lot or half. Besides, ikaw pre, Juris' voice is the type na gusto mong marinig alone di ba? yung cya lang ang naririnig mo.
2. On your #2 thought, well sadly i agree.
3 & 4. no comment
5 & 6. sinabi mo pah
7. Well, Juris (as far as i know) wrote the songs "Paalam Na" (Soulful Acoustic) & "Rush"(Beyond Acoustic). They were great songs. Hindi lang napansin masyado. Actually im glad a bit na hindi na sila masyadong napansin kc ayoko naman favorite ng lahat ng tao favorite songs ko. You never heard of these songs cguro.
and yes nothing more about your career pursuit & business suggestions. all of them you got a point.
but ganito... from my band experience ( i dont know if this goes the same way with mymp)...
there's more onto a band than the career, the business & others...
there's this thing called companionship, yung pagkakapalagay ng loob nyo sa isa't-isa. yung grupo. yung barkada. Juris & Chin arent just bandmates kc eh. theyve been gud frends (???).
sa kaso on what you were saying, the companionship holds the band... for now...
sa mga bandmates ko, even if someone's not performing the same level as the other, there's this thing called companionship. but the problem is... hanggang kailan iho-hold ng companionship na e2 ang band.
anyways, i have a confession to make to you guyz - im not really a fan of mymp, but a super fan of Juris Fernandez. period.
grabe naman yan.From my point of view kahit sabihin natin n talented tlga si juris sa pagkanta hindi naman sapat yun para sumikat.A good song is not just composed of a voice of a ood singer kelangan din ng ibang sangkap gaya ng talent ni chin sa pagguiguitara. A band is like a team that creates a good music.kung hindi dahil kay chin di mapapansin at d sisikat si juris ng ganun.saka MYMP has a trademark of having acoustic kind of sound.kung dun nakilala at sumikat si juris un ang tatatak sa mga mind ng tao.hindi nila madaling makalimutan yun kaya susuportahan ng mga tao un.If I am juris bakit ako magsosolo kung mas kilala ako at mas sikat ako with the MYMP.tignan nyo ung mga dating Vocalist ng Southborder?ano n sila ngayon?Di ba wala?kahit sabihin n natin n talented cla mahirap p rin n gumawa ng pangalan kung mas nakilala k ng mga tao with your group.Si Ely Buendia nga na talented at magaling gumawa ng mga songs wala narin cya ngayon with out the ERASERHEADS.parang ganun din yun sa MYMP,ang MYMP ay hindi lang si juris.yan lang ang masasabi ko.

true... there is no such a thing as a sure thing... i was just voicing out my opinions that i think this is where this thing is headed
relaxdiego, what do you mean? like would i buy concert tickets (or co-produce the concert) if juris does go solo? yes, i would... i think thats a safe risk
or did you mean let's bet on it? sure, i would be willing to bet on it what/how much did you have in mind?
(by the way, do you play golf? sa golf course na lang natin pagpustahan )

All points are valid here. It's either they'd break up after some years or the individual members will evolve in their skills to become an integral part of the group. Only time will tell really.
I can think of a number of groups though where some members do not appear "distinctive". One of them is U2. You'll notice that the bassist and the drummer aren't really the reason why people buy their albums or go to their concert. And yet, they're still intact. Maybe the reason for that is the teamwork and dedication to the group. Who knows. It would do well for MYMP to study these long standing groups and follow on their footsteps.

Yes, I meant bet on it. I was thinking of putting up a betting pool. Kaso I don't think it'd be appropriate to put up that kind of bet in an MYMP fan forum. Hehehe.
i was initially thinking nga of taking on bets on this but then, you are right... it would be inappropriate here but i'm willing to bet privately only condition ko lang is that none of the bettors is actually a band member or has insider info... i dont think that would be a fair bet, di ba?
relaxdiego has all the insider info because he is really close with the band. i heard he dated juris in high school hmmm..

hehehe.. then i wouldn't bet against him bakas na lang kami sa mga tataya
dated in high school... cool ! too bad i'm too old.. otherwise, it would have been an interesting thought ...

and pare, everything i posted here is really my personal opinion i don't mean to disparage any of the other band members just saying that it is a natural progression of things to plot out what the future holds for the band and i guess i was just voicing out what other members of the audience saw and heard that night
like you said, they may take the cue from other bands and polish up their acts and reformat but the way it is right now, thats where i think it is going.. peace, dude!

Hahaha. No that's not true. I did hope to date her back in college though, except that we rarely caught each other during sem breaks. tsk. just my luck.

yap..akla ko ako lang nakapansin..pro sa dami nyang sa isa lang ako umaayon..korek napakalaki ng tsansa na magsolo c juris sa career nya..kz sobrang magaling pa siya kaysa sa ibang singer ngaun at hindi un maikakaila .sobrang ganda talaga ng voice nya at talagang darating ang araw pwede ciang mag-solo pero di ba if ur a fan of mymp parang pag nakikita mo c juris na mag-iisa d ba parang kulang ..para bang sanatytaung mga fan nya na tanging c chin lang ung nakakatiming sa boses ni juris..u know sa pag-gigitara nya..so ako na ung nangyaari ngaun suportahan na lang natin..atleast sa dami ng bagobg banda na nagsisilabasan..nangingibabaw sila!!!
sana guys, suportahan natin ang mymp as whole hindi lng c juris, kc ang mymp, ndi lnag nman xa e.. clang 2 ni chin.. napa-isip 2loy aq.. gaya nung k nyoy volante.. i didnt really knew that he was in a band until malaman q na the mannos left him dhil naiiwan cla at c nyoy lng ang nakikilala.. nagegets nyo ba ung naiisip q? bka dhil sa c juris ang mas nakikilala ng tao e magkaganun cla ni chin *harinawa hindi gawin ni chin un*
whatever happens to them in the coming year is up to the both of them, and to us, their fans.. on how we support them..
