Ever wondered why Piddig's covered theater is called Gaki? Did you know that Piddig in the past is synonymous to Gaki. And Why Gaki?
Gaki was coined after Prof. Luis Castueras, the famous Piddig musician who used to make Piano concerts in a makeshift stage located in the very Gaki Theater today. It is believed that gaki was coined after the word khaki. Prof. Castueras used to pronounce khaki - his favorite clothing - into ghaki. Soon people called him gakhi and later on called the concert place Gakhi.
Here are 3 rare recordings of Mr. Gakhi in the late 1950's.
