It promised to be an intimate and enjoyable show with the Darrenatics, as his fans are fondly called, and it sure did not disappoint. </p><p>Here are some of show’s highlights: </p><p><b>The explosive opening number</b></p><center><iframe src='https://www.facebook.com/plugins/video.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2FOneMusicPH%2Fvideos%2F1252182401521434%2F&show_text=0&width=400' width='400' height='400' style='border:none;overflow:hidden' scrolling='no' frameborder='0' allowtransparency='true' allowfullscreen='true'></iframe></center><p>Darren performed Justin Timberlake’s “Can’t Stop the Feeling” for his opening number. Right from the start, the young singer showcased his voice as well as his impressive dance moves.

Darrenatics also sent in dares for him to do, which included singing the “PPAP Song” while sticking his tongue out and dancing with teen star Andrea Brilliantes, who was present to watch the concert. Two lucky fans even got the chance to have 20 seconds of eye contact with Darren himself.</p><p><b>Collaborations with the Darrenatics</b></p><p></p><center><blockquote class='instagram-media' data-instgrm-captioned='' data-instgrm-version='7' style=' background:#FFF; border:0; border-radius:3px; box-shadow:0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width:658px; padding:0; width:99.375%; width:-webkit-calc(100% - 2px); width:calc(100% - 2px);'><div style='padding:8px;'> <div style=' background:#F8F8F8; line-height:0; margin-top:40px; padding:50.0% 0; text-align:center; width:100%;'> <div style=' background:url(data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAACwAAAAsCAMAAAApWqozAAAABGdBTUEAALGPC/xhBQAAAAFzUkdCAK7OHOkAAAAMUExURczMzPf399fX1+bm5mzY9AMAAADiSURBVDjLvZXbEsMgCES5/P8/t9FuRVCRmU73JWlzosgSIIZURCjo/ad+EQJJB4Hv8BFt+IDpQoCx1wjOSBFhh2XssxEIYn3ulI/6MNReE07UIWJEv8UEOWDS88LY97kqyTliJKKtuYBbruAyVh5wOHiXmpi5we58Ek028czwyuQdLKPG1Bkb4NnM+VeAnfHqn1k4+GPT6uGQcvu2h2OVuIf/gWUFyy8OWEpdyZSa3aVCqpVoVvzZZ2VTnn2wU8qzVjDDetO90GSy9mVLqtgYSy231MxrY6I2gGqjrTY0L8fxCxfCBbhWrsYYAAAAAElFTkSuQmCC); display:block; height:44px; margin:0 auto -44px; position:relative; top:-22px; width:44px;'></div></div> <p style=' margin:8px 0 0 0; padding:0 4px;'> <a href='https://www.instagram.com/p/BMLu9tJDShg/' style=' color:#000; font-family:Arial,sans-serif; font-size:14px; font-style:normal; font-weight:normal; line-height:17px; text-decoration:none; word-wrap:break-word;' target='_blank'>Darren performing 'Stuck' with Darrenatic Kate Fernando. #OneMusicDarren</a></p> <p style=' color:#c9c8cd; font-family:Arial,sans-serif; font-size:14px; line-height:17px; margin-bottom:0; margin-top:8px; overflow:hidden; padding:8px 0 7px; text-align:center; text-overflow:ellipsis; white-space:nowrap;'>A photo posted by One Music PH (@onemusicph) on <time style=' font-family:Arial,sans-serif; font-size:14px; line-height:17px;' datetime='2016-10-30T10:15:00+00:00'>Oct 30, 2016 at 3:15am PDT</time></p></div></blockquote></center><p>Darren was able to collaborate with some fans through One Music’s online contests.
