    Band from Boracay Island

    Hello Everyone.. im myk. i am filipino, just had my visa so i can stay now here in hongkong and have a job. im just wondering, coz b4 me and my band play in boracay island in the philippines for almost 2 years. That's how i met my wife and now were staying here in tung chung coz she teaches here in a school in central. my problem is.. bcoz my bandmates dont have visa, is it possible if they come here and we will just go to bars and have an audition.. or we really need an agency so they can get a working visa.

    You would need a visa - no reputable bar is going to employ you without one. And there isn't a shortage of Filipino bands here, some of them really very good indeed (ex-recording artists - e.g Rockstar 2, Tara Polo, etc) so unless you are in that league I wouldn't get my hopes up too high if I were you.

    But just go out there and talk to the Filipino bands - ask them how they did it.
