Nightlife Hub 12 Monkeys Is Setting Up Shop Once More
It's no longer in the South.
(SPOT.ph) Remember when live music and perfomances were a regular occurrence? It feels like centuries ago we would drive out every weekend to music bars to watch our fave local bands, both known and indie, jam out and play unforgettable tunes. Yes, there are more and more acts playing in the country once more, but we're not quite out of the panini-defined woods just yet. Still, it's nice to hear that one or two of our go-to joints are making a comeback. Case in point: We know where popular music joint 12 Monkeys Music Hall & Pub is set to reopen.

Here's where 12 Monkeys is set to reopen:
On September 26, 12 Monkeys broke the news on Instagram that they are set to reopen at Estancia Malls in Capitol Commons, Origas. Finally, a prime gig spot that's not in the South. Fans of the live music scene are familiar with their old joint at Century City Mall in Poblacion as well as their outpost in El Pueblo Real de Manila in Pasig where the likes of Parokya ni Edgar, Up Dharma Down, Bullet Dumas, and more performed. While there is no confirmed date for the reopening, SPOT.ph reached out to their account and was able to confirm that the place is currently under construction. We've got our fingers crossed it'll open up in time for all the upcoming Christmas parties.
This reopening follows a slew of "closed" notices on some of our fave gig spots in the Metro. Think everything from Cubao hangout Today x Future to every college student's fave Route 196. Even old El Pueblo in Ortigas changed immensely through the years. With this notice though, we're starting to see a light at the end of the tunnel.
