Author  Yugel  Losorata  extracted salient points from his many years  making music, being in a band, writing  news and features, and keeping up with  the  euphoria and struggles  of being a writer-musician in the Philippines. By way of narrative essays that jump from personal  struggles  to  privileges  while  hobnobbing  or being friends  with celebrities, he crafted a true-to-life tale  of a  Filipino recording artist and performing musician who happens to be a rock journo, too.    On one hand,  Losorata  stumbled  enough in his attempts to crack mainstream success. But in his own right, he tasted a bountiful of small wins amid the backdrop of Philippine showbiz  rich in heritage and artistry,  heavy on  bitter twists and turns.            Losorata  - songwriter, performer, music journalist, reflective - has gone through it all. He felt compelled to genuinely tell his story and share pop culture through his eyes, especially that his life mirrors that of a dreamer facing difficulties and  surviving  the whole shebang with dignity intact and without regrets.
