THE NEW MINSTRELS and the Circus Band are two of the hottest showbands of the 70s and 80s and each time its members will have a reunion, it’s always a big hit. We remember watching them then at Wells Fargo and Rino’s at Roxas Blvd. then and they really have a huge regular following. Now, they’re all set to sing together again in a special show, “See You in September”, to be held at the Theatre of the Solaire Resorts Hotel and Casino on Friday, September 2.
Music lovers and nostalgia trippers will surely be delighted to hear Louie Reyes with her “All Of My Life,” Ding Mercado and his “You’ll Never Find Another Love Like Mine” and Eugene Villaluz and his ‘Nat King Cole Medley’ of The New Minstrels and Jacqui Magno with ‘Bridges’ and Pat Castillo with ‘Somewhere In Time’ of the Circus Band plus Ray An Fuentes with “She Believes In Me.” Fuentes is the only member who became a part of both groups.
Most of them now reside abroad and are also busy either as solo artists or doing other endeavors, but from time to time, their loyal fans still ask them to do performances together to relive the music of the 70s and 80s and they’re just happy to oblige. For sure, their fans will also enjoy seeing them perform special numbers like “MacArthur Park,” the “Disco Queens Medley,” “Natalie Cole Medley,” “60s Boy Band Medley” and many others.
