[edit] bamboo's roots

i don't know who wrote the article on BAMBOO MANALAC... most of it is fairly accurate... except for him being the son of an influential political icon (Muslim family)...

i myself am a Muslim and related to BAMBOO (he is my nephew)... my mother and his paternal granfather were siblings (and they hail from the province of Pampanga...)...

i don't know his mother personally, but im pretty sure she isnt muslim either...

[edit] Offered to Rejoin Rivermaya?

This article doesn't cite its sources of information. For example, I think the info that Bamboo offered to rejoin Rivermaya, but Rico Blanco, its current frontman, refused is a very relevant info. It is important that this info be cited.

[edit] All Unsourced Statements

Pretty much this whole article is unsourced. One problem here is the almost total lack of information on Filipino music on the Internet. Aside from isolated sites here and there and legions of clueless dalagas on message boards ("o luvs ko ang kanta nila!!!") there's really not much to find. We really shouldn't put the controversial statements back in until they can be sourced but it would be an interesting add to the biography if we could find a source. I'm all googled out, though - anybody else?

[edit] Bamboo's real family

Bamboo's family is really messed up.

I should know since i'm his cousin. His mom is my dad's sister. He is not muslim and I know.

I see him almost every time I go to my other cousin's house. He is a Catholic and so is my family. I hope the person who made this will make this change.--Joncrimson 07:48, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
