Ogie reeled off one of his best impersonations onstage like the character “Bansot Me”, his jokes are extremely funny without any vulgarity.
He is indeed a consummate performer, who proved his mettle for the last 30 years and counting. Ogie Alcasid is excited about his upcoming 30th Anniversary concert on Aug 24 at the Big Dome.
One of the most exalting moments in the concert was Ogie’s rendition of his composition “ The Lord is My Savior”, a song he wrote for his wife Regine Velasquez-Alcasid, after going through rough moments when she lost her Daddy Gerry a few years back. The crowd shouted “AMEN” and feel an extraordinary spiritual vibe, a soft melody with incredible vocals that will put one straight in your feels.
