Many came, and many got turned away. The Pnoy Apparel/Alpha Psi Rho event "A Sammy Thing" (in reference to the cartoon character Sammy the Sun) at San Diego State University on December the 9th was so popular security rolled deep (police car and all) in an effort to "control" the crowd. So apologies to the many people who could not get in and missed an all-star jam featuring the hottest Fil Am talent.
The charity event is part of a bigger project called "Shirt the Kids," which is raising money for shirts for children in the Philippines as well as monetary support addressing children's poverty in the Philippines. Please visit here for more information on the "Shirt the Kids" campaign.
A mixed crowd of young and professional-age Fil Ams packed SDSU's Montezuma Hall. People nudged through thick crowds to buy gear from vendors and to support artists buy purchasing their music. The performance space featured a steady barrage of Fil Am performers, including Geologic, Kiwi, Ashley Robles, Bambu, Supreme Soul, Son of Ran, Angie Girl, Hi Fi and many others!
Congratulations to Pnoy Apparel and Alpha Psi Rho for delivering an ambitious yet successful event. I'm sure we'll be seeing more of "A Sammy Thing" around the nation in the months ahead!
