COCO MARTIN,

VICE GANDA IN

ASAP NEW YORK

SEEN IN THE CITY:

(NEW YORK) – Why watch ASAP NY?

Let me enumerate the reasons why:

Because, this is the very first time ABS-CBN is bringing the ultimate showcase of world-class Filipino musical talents in the biggest city in the world of performing arts – New York! Coco Martin, Vice Ganda and Onyok of the long-running and consistent top rating ABS-CBN teleserye (also being shown weeknights on The Filipino Channel) “Ang Probinsiyano,” will also grace “ASAP in New York” happening on Saturday, September 3, 2016 at the Brooklyn Barclays Center, according to an official email sent to this Columnist by ABS-CBN’s Global Corporate Affairs & PR Office. Billed as special guests, the trio will be in addition to previously announced hottest performers, namely, Piolo Pascual, “Born For You” leads Elmo Magalona and Janella Salvador (aka #Elnella), Kathryn Bernardo, Daniel Padilla (aka #KathNiel) of “Pangako Sa ‘Yo,” Enrique Gil and Liza Soberano (aka #LizQuen) of “Dolce Amore,” Kim Chiu, Gerald Anderson, Maja Salvador, Gary Valenciano, Martin Nievera, Zsa Zsa Padilla, Yeng Constantino, Angeline Quinto, Luis Manzano, Billy Crawford, Klarisse De Guzman, Kyla, KZ Tandingan, Daryl Ong, Jay-R, Jolina Magdangal, Morisette Amon, Erik Santos, Jona Viray, Jason Dy with the special participation of Ms. Charo Santos and the ABS-CBN Philharmonic Orchestra under the baton of Gerard Salonga!

Because, ASAP, directed by the ever reliable Johnny Manahan is the longest-running (it has aired about 1,121 episodes as of presstime, per Wikipedia!) musical-variety show in the Philippines – since it first got shown on February 5, 1995!

Because ASAP is the first live entertainment program in the Philippines to be broadcast in true high-definition picture, the other being a sports program, again, according to Wikipedia!

Because it’s the biggest concert-party of the year for Fil-Ams, ever!

And because, it’s happening in New York!

This is happening in less than 9 days! What are you waiting for? Grab your tickets now: http://m.ticketmaster.com/tfc-presents-asap-live-in-ny-brooklyn-new-york-09-03-2016/event/000050A9D2A8770E
