Ok. I was one of the many fans who wanted to see them play music together, and yes I was able to see them together, and it felt different really seeing and hearing them.
It's like a certain flashback of growing up in their music.
The music though seemed different in a way that more guitar exhibitions were done, and of course their music mainstreamed to the NOW music, and ely has improved his vocals.
I am posting a link of how excited the crowd seemed to be on that particular night: http://www.esnips.com/doc/dace618a-94c8-4d43-8565-de058073399c/eheadswagm0nangitan0ng.
Though, the concert was cut short, I kudos the fans of eraserheads for basically understanding why it has to be cut.
I just hope though that the reunion of the 4 was not just merely about money (but, you cannot subtract that fact!)... :)

too bad i wasn't able to watch that concert. and to think i had never seen them perform live ever since i became their fan (that was like 14 or 15 years ago).
yep! i was in grade school then and now i'm already 25 years old, still listening to their music, still a fan that is. and they definitely have to do a 2nd concert or else, i would regret not participating that night for the rest of my life.

I believe they will have a second concert. The turn-out of the august concert was so great that I guess they will be thinking of another concert.

i only have two words for the band...group hug! XD
though the concert was cut short, i honestly think that no amount of money (PhP 800 or PhP 1300) will ever equate to the sensory experience brought about by seeing buddy, ely, marcus, and raimund play together (as one one band).
i was saddened that it was cut short, but if ever they're planning to do this once again, i'd be more than willing to purchase a ticket...yet again :D

Yey! That's a true groupie talking (err writing). Yes, i will purchase again if it will happen (minus other pal's cynicism and skepticism).

I only appreciated the songs of the Eraserheads a few years after they disbanded... it was only then that i realized their songs were actually good because they were able to stand the test of time... and the reunion concert was a great way to relive those days of glory for them...
Sad to say it had to end with Ely being rushed to the hospital... but i heard that there will be another one... as soon as he is fully recovered from his operation...

that reunion concert was such a blast, and eventhough it was cut short due to ely buendia's condition, its worth it. what even makes it so memorable to me is that, i was able to watched it with my 10 year old son ( he is quite big for his age),he like eheads too, (influenced by mommy, of course).
hearing their music gave me nostalgic memories of my college days..and how i always got startruck when ever i see Ely in person...:-)
if there will be a repeat performance, i will definitley be there again 100%:-)

I was young when they really hit the waves. But I grew up with my cousins listening to their music.
