According to a comment in another blog, the promoter is Uniprom, Inc. the entertainment arm of the Araneta Group of Companies.
how about promotions or contest for vip passes? Im from bacolod and will fly there anytime just to see them. Im a big big fan since 1996.. Now im 28 but still shivers and shouts everytime i hear their songs or see their videos.
I'll try to post promos here. I'm sure a lot of radio stations would be giving out free tickets.
