Eraserheads concert in December is the final reunion of the band

The Eraserheads reunion concert in December is going to be the group’s final reunion, its producers confirmed in a press statement.

According to Francis Luman, concert producer and president of WEU Event Management Services, “This will be the last reunion of the group that’s why we want to give the fans one last epic show.” 

Diane Ventura, co-producer and manager of lead vocalist Ely Buendia, echoed Lumen and said, “This is definitely the last reunion of the Eraserheads in the Philippines.” 

The show, aptly titled Huling El Bimbo, signals some kind of finality indeed and as such, the band is cooking something different and something big.

Ely said Huling El Bimbo isn’t like any other previous reunion concert. “Because we love our fans, we want to give them something different here. It’s the beginning of a new chapter in our lives and we also want them to have a special memory of Eraserheads as we move forward,” he said.

The band started rehearsing as early as October, promising an unforgettable experience, including an 18-piece orchestra, a drone show, and a hologram of the late Francis M. 

Photographer Jon, who also happens to be the lead tech for Ely Buendia, graciously shared some photos from the band's second rehearsals with GMA Integrated News.

Weeks after the initial release and selling out of tickets, producers expanded the capacity to accommodate more concertgoers.

The Eraserheads will reunite on December 22 at the SMDC Festival Grounds in Parañaque City. It marks their reunion after 15 years.

Composed of Ely, Raimund Marasigan, Buddy Zabala, and Marcus Adoro, the group is behind the classics, “Magasin,” “With a Smile,” “Pare Ko,” and many more. — LA, GMA Integrated News
