Andy of the old Taiwanese expat-punk band DEPORTED re-visits Metro Manila with a new band THE OUTSOURCED (basically Bad Omen in disguise!).

BTW: I heard one of THE DEPORTED actually got himself deported from Taiwan recently! And that Andy is now working in congress in the US as the State Representative of MAINE! Heavy!
