Eraserheads cut short

"The Eraserheads Reunion Concert was cut short Saturday night when lead singer Ely Buendia was rushed to the Makati Medical Center after collapsing backstage during a 20-minute intermission of the planned 30-song concert.

The concert’s sudden end was announced by Buendia’s sister Lally who went onstage with Ely’s band mates Raimund Marasigan, Buddy Zabala, Marcus Adoro and concert organizers stating that the band’s lead vocalist and songwriter was in poor health. The band members apologized to the audience for cutting short their performance.

MTV Philippines President Francis Lumen asked the crowd for a minute of silence to pray for Buendia’s health".

Raimund Marasigan’s Post Eraserheads Reunion Message at Sandwich Yahoogroups

"after the first set i was so hyped. i went looking for buddy to check
up on him cos his bass effects was malfunctioning.

i found him coming out of ely's tent and said ely was rushed to the
hospital. we were all stunned and after a quick production meeting and
meeting with his family we had to announce that the concert had to be
cut short.

we prepared 3 sets. the first was just a warm up. the remaining two
was going to be the fun part.

there was more videos and light shows and pyro in store for everyone.

after getting fans family and friends safely out of the venue maps and
i headed over to saguijo bar to meet sandwich pedicab cambio and some
friends to hang. (See Bonus Video J)

after a few beers buddy arrives so we decided to play the second set
on borrowed equipment. thanx to mark maya for the stix. we had a
little help from ebe, kris, vin, aia and tani. by the time we were
playing el bimbo marcus shows up so he got to play also.

i guess we just did not want to go home to our posh hotel rooms all
down and defeated. i'm thankful we have great friends to support us,
cheer us up when we're sad, pick us up when we're down.

here's my new motto

drum now ask questions later

Is there Eraserheads Reunion Part 2? So here’s Mr. Raimund Marasigan’s Message Posted on Sandwich Yahoogroups.

"thank you thank you

dear everybody

before anything. i just spoke to day cabuhat. and she informed me that
ely's condition is now stable. and they're very thankful for all your
concern.

thank you very much for coming t the show. we really felt the cheering
and the singing and the love you all gave.

thank you for understanding that the show had to be cut short.

ely was in no condition (emotionally, physically) to play but he did.
and he gave it his all which is more than we could ask from him. given
the circumstances he was in.

we all wish him well. we are all confident that he will recover soon.

i promise to give you another eraserheads show as soon as possible.

again thank you very much

raym"
