User:Paco Laxa

Born Ivan Raphael Laxa on September 11, 1982; Paco Laxa is viewed to be both "Contra Bida" and bearing strong leadership qualities. He is the nephew of Actors Tony "X44" Ferrer and Nick Romano who were veteran actors in the early 70s. Having cousins such as Maricel Laxa - Pangilinan and Mutya Laxa it wasn't difficult to see how he ended up attending Theatre Arts in U.P. Diliman where he pledged to the Alpha Phi Omega Fraternity. He finished the course shortly before he went to prison in 2001 for alleged drug involvement and assault with a weapon with two other fellow actors. He was released 2003 for lack of evidence where he told the judge that he only had a gun and that the gun was licensed. Ivan met his band in a Karaoke bar in Toronto where he DJd in 2004. They played until the late 2006 when they split up. The band was called CR02.
