| | Thank you Kitchie for such an unforgettable performance! - We would like to thank everyone (near and far) who came to the 'Kitchie Nadal Live in Toronto' concert on August 6, 2005 at Toronto's Opera House. It is with confidence that we label the concert as one of the most successful 'pinoy' rock concerts held in international soil. The show's production and audio caliber was without equal. Thanks to all involved, we managed to pull the rabbit out of the hat. The show was simply magical.
| Kitchie Nadal Lands at T.O.! (August 2, 2005) Without further adieu, we'd like all to know that as of 10:05am this morning (August 2, 2005) 'Kitchie Nadal' and her partial entourage of guitar wiz 'Jack Rufo' and manager 'Roca Cruz' arrived Toronto Pearson International Airport in tip-top shape. The rest of her entourage will follow in two day's time. Kitchie's arrival also comes in conjunction with the unfortunate 'Air France' crash incident just a few hours afterwards which crash-landed the very same runway they landed on. Fortunately all passengers of the said aircraft managed to crawl out to safety before it manifested into a huge fireball. Kitchie Nadal, Roca Cruz, and Jack Rufo are all safe-and-sound. In fact, they did not waste any time and started discovering Toronto by venturing on the sidewalks of Queen Street West. |  |  | | This is not an impressionist's rendition of Kitchie's arrival in Toronto .. It's the likeness of Kitchie,Roca Cruz, and Jack Rufo (L-R) brought to you by an extremely excited photographer upon their arrival at the airport. | Kitchie and Jack seek a deal for the most sought after cell phone component (a memory card) .. at 'Pacific Mall' Canada's Largest Chinese Mall |

|  | Minerva Records Showcase Concert April 8, 2005 |
| Minerva Records - Is turning out to be RiR's first record label affiliate. We could not certainly do or handle everything on our own so it is crucial to have the help of friends who share our aspirations and join in as one collective family. Please support our independent scene and show up in as much gigs/concerts as we or our affiliate labels can put out. It would not only be a courteously nobel gesture but a small attempt in gratifying our shared goal of putting Asian talents in the mainstream music map.
