Here's a new update about the Eraserheads concert.

This is one of the news I got from the Eraserheads mailing list, it was posted there via an email post by Raymund Marasigan himself in the Cambio mailing list, he goes under the username asmatik88. And after this email message, hope everyone can still wait for the official announcement regarding the concert, venue and where to get tickets, we got one more month to wait for the big event of the Eraserheads and I know it will happen only once in a millenium.

here's his reply and some thoughts about the Eraserheads reunion. read more below

dear sandwich, cambio and pedicab listers
yes there will be an eraserheads concert
yes im playing drums
it will be on august 30
i havent met the band
and we havent rehearsed as a group
im thinking that will all happen in august
im sure you have read the blogs and newspapers and whatnot.
a lot of things there are not true.

at the moment
the final venue has not been confirmed.
and the promoters are still dealing with the tickets and crowd control
issues.

the promoters promise to answer these questions soon. maybe this
coming week so standby. there will be no front acts.

it will be a long set.
no theres no talk of an album or tour.

please dont email me privately. ill answer your questions (if theyre not silly) in the cambio, pedicab sandwich mailing lists.

have a good weekend
rayms marasigan

a few thoughts
no i dont miss playing drums. i have a drumkit set up in the house and
i play all the time. i have a lot of drum gear, percussion and drum
machines.

i love playing drums.
i even play percussion in church on sundays when i can.
diego cas and mong have drumkits and we make a lot of noise and jam.
mike d has a vistalite (see thru) vintage kit. really cool and really loud.

we used it in mayrics last week.
i love playing drums for cambio.we played 2 gigs last night.
on occasion im honored to play drums for sugarfree, chicosci,imago,duster and the dawn.

i get asked this a lot.
im sorry i dont mean to offend but i dont miss the eheads or get senti
about it. it was a college band that turned into something we could not control. the music lives.

but thats just me.
im also a big music fan and i know how it means to other people so please dont send me hate mail. haha. im really not a bad person. its just a gig.

yes we all agreed to play 1 gig but were minimizing the drama.
i will give it 110 percent. thats the sandwich way.
if i give any less diego will kick my butt on stage.

drums not drama

Maybe you can send this to raymund then. a lot of us fans are sad that the eheads we've loved all this time for not being sell-outs are now helping marlboro promote cigarettes despite the current ban on tobacco ads. send him this link..
kami boycott kami... kahit masama loob namin. mali yun eh.

The 4 guys should realize that more than seeing them together again on the stage, people are more excited to see them finally patch things up. It's not just about music - it's about brotherhood. As they put on their Circus album sleeve, "Its not the trip, it's the destination."

Ooopps.. Typed too fast there. It was supposed to be "its the trip, not the destination" :).. Anyways, I hope this one night gig becomes a good "trip" indeed. I dont know for others, but I personally find it easy to detect when musicians have connections or not, especially when they play live together.
