They also enlisted all-around open hitter Bernadeth Pons to complement Tots Carlos and Jema Galanza’s games, along with those of Jia de Guzman and Kyla Atienza’s, although Creamline fans are as much eager and thrilled as the rest over the return to competitive play of Valdez, who missed the All-Filipino conference due to a knee injury.

“Yung team na healthy all throughout the season will make a big difference this conference—lahat pantay-pantay na talaga, including yung support ng mga teams,” said Valdez.

“We are very excited if you may say so but it really entails a lot of responsibilities to match and manage the expectations of many,” said Chery Tiggo head coach Aaron Velez.

Rex Orange County announces dates for ‘Live in Asia 2023 Tour’

ENGLISH singer Alexander James O’Connor, known professionally as Rex Orange County, returns to the road this fall for the Live in Asia 2023 Tour, which includes a show in Manila on October 8 at the Araneta Coliseum.

The tour kicks off on September 15 and runs through October 21 with Rex performing in New Zealand, Australia, and various Asian cities, including Manila on October 8 at Araneta Coliseum. Other shows are in Hong Kong on October 10 at Star Hall, Taipei on October 12 at Zepp New Taipei, Jakarta on October 14 at Beach City International Stadium, Singapore on October 17 at Star Theatre, Kuala Lumpur on October 18 at Zepp KL, and Bangkok on October 21 at Moonstar Studio 1.

Promoted by AEG Presents Asia & Insignia Presents, tickets for Rex Orange County Live in Asia 2023 Manila are priced from P3,180 to P4,770 (excluding online fees). The general on-sale started on June 16 through www.InsigniaPresents. com or at TicketNet outlets nationwide.

This tour marks Rex’s first headline shows across Asia and includes highly anticipated dates in some of his biggest streaming markets.

These dates follow Rex’s multi-city run in North America in 2022, where he performed sold-out shows at iconic venues such as The Hollywood Bowl, Forest Hills Stadium, Red Rocks Amphitheater, and a soldout hometown performance at Gunnersbury Park in London for 20,000 people.

Last year, Rex released his latest album, Who Cares?, which reached #1 in the UK, #2 in Australia, and #5 in the US. The record features standout songs like “Amazing,” “The Shade,” “Keep It Up,” and “Open A Window” featuring Tyler, The Creator. The collaboration marked their first since Tyler’s 2017 album Flower Boy Complex praised the album in their ‘Best of 2022 So Far’ list, describing it as “sobering, uplifting, fun, and honest all at the same time, making for a great addition to his expanding catalog.” Rex followed up with the release of his single “Threat,” which was hailed by The New York Times as “a tender take on self-doubt.”
