My ex-wife and I are hanging around with musician Noel Cabangon (born 1963), at the Conspiracy Garden Café in Quezón City.
We got close to Noel when my wife wanted to write about him in 2000, for her magazine Earthian, where we would regularly meet him at The 70’s Bistro (established 1992). Noel attributes our regular watching of his performances as the reason why we became an item.
Conspiracy Garden Café was established in 2003 by a cooperative of visual artists, writers, musicians, academicians, and social activists; the Conspiracy Garden Café has become a favorite watering hole for like-minded people, as they listen to the nightly performances of established and up-coming artists. Whether it is folk music, rock n’ roll, spoken word poetry, or even experimental music, there is something for every type of audience here.
