Ang pagkaka-alam ko kaya umalis si Rico sa Rivermaya dahil gusto nyang mag-artista kaso alang tumanggap e. Mejo nayayabangan yata… Sa totoo lang nung nawala si Bamboo noon sa Rivermaya diko na idol ang Rivermaya.

during the few years i spent college back in the PI, that was like 90’s, Rivermaya used to pay alongside with Wolfgang and Razorback at Weekends Live….can remember where it was located been away for many years ;)..and i really like the “bandstand” during those times. RiverMaya members the original line up i mean, had certain difficulties with one another which i think were quite hard for them to work out among themselves. Rico is a talented guy…but at times when someone wanna be in all places at the same time, he needs some companions.No man is an island…
