APO STORMS HOUSTON

As a fitting end to their second tour of the US this year Boboy,Danny and Jim stormed Stafford Theater in Houston with hit after hit coupled with their legendary wit which left the sell-out audience begging for more. "Ang sakit na ng panga ko sa kakatawa at kakakanta", Elsa, a Houston resident expressed what everyone was feeling.The APO performed for two hours and left the stage amid a standing ovation only to come back to tell the people that a storm had hit Houston and that no one could leave the auditorium due to the heavy rains. The audience cheered boisterously since it meant APO would be doing extra numbers to keep them entertained.

The show was frontacted by two local bands and one of APO's favorite co-singers Ms. Joey Albert who roused the people to dance with her local disco hits medley. APO's Houston show broke all records as far as Filipino concerts go. This was the first time a performer packed it in and it was the best show in memory they had witnessed. Below is a letter sent to the APO from a subscriber to their website named G girl:

DEAR JIM, BOBOY , DANNY & MS. JOEY,
