Montana Younger Set Association

When this Bglante bought a top-of-the-line CD player to rekindle a dying passion for music, little did we know that it touched a responsive chord among aging music lovers. Baby boomers all, we came to realize a common denominator that threw us back to the realm of nostalgia.

It was a dream come true for the core members of the Montana Younger Set Association to be back in harness through our common passion for music. Montana, a fishing community in the outskirts of Baclayon proper, is populated by culture and music vultures, one of whom is the famous Oscar Real.

Thus this Bglante, Real of the Bukang Liwayway Dance Troupe fame and former Baclayon kagawad Bebot Apale took it upon ourselves to revive what was once the remnants of the younger set generation that dominated the cultural and musical scene of Baclayon in the 60's and 70's.

The response was spontaneous. Amid the oldie but goldie sounds of Gary Lewis and the Playboys, the Beatles, Dave Clark Five, Chicago, among others, a meeting was assembled two Sundays in succession. Then the meetings became so frequent that it has become second nature to the three of us.

It was indeed exhilarating to reminisce the good old days let alone if it was tied with a common bond-the love for music.

It was this kind of love that brought us back to the lost horizon of long forgotten years now but a fleeting shadow looming in the dark past and waiting to be remembered for old time sake.

And what better way to remember the past characterized by a restless and carefree generation than to bring them together under one setting. All told, a reunion of sorts is forthcoming of what used to be the young ones graduating into the young once.

To give flesh to the plan of a homecoming, the trio of this Bglante, Oscar and Bebot, more members of the once active younger set club are invited to form the core group.

If plans do not miscarry, such younger set members as Mar Talictic, now the manager of the Social Security System-Tagbilaran branch , former Baclayon vice mayor Ursing Jayectin-Ongcoy, Rosario Ay-ad Brillata, a retired public school teacher, to name a few, are invited to an organization meeting today.

What is in store for the Montana young once as we meet today is the possibility of a big jam session cum reunion, exactly the same thing we did 40 years or so, ago. We set the big day on September 11, incidentally the birthday of Oscar.

Our generation had undergone several transformations. Many have died already while some others have since changed their religious beliefs. But no religion nor death can stop the spirit of our young years from living on. It may be a tall order for others to follow but since music is the universal language of the soul, it is not hard to imagine that what starts in Montana will spread throughout the land.
