Ely Buendia is now safe and in a stable condition after been reported transfered from Makati Medical Center to the Philippine Heart Center.

He was rushed to Makati Medical Center last night during a 20 minute break from the much awaited and anticipated Eraserheads Reunion Concert.

For those who don’t know yet, Arnel Pineda (who is a Pinoy) is the new front man of the 80’s legendary rock band “The Journey”

From the unknown (or locally famous) Arnel Pineda, comes the international sensation and lead singer of a very famous rock band!

Before there was none (or few) website for Arnel Pineda.. now there are more than a handfull… Now, I’m creating my very own Arnel Pineda Fan site! yahoo! :D

Visit my Arnel Pineda site here!

I was going to post this the same day of the concert but I encountered some problems with the list.

I kind of split them in two.. first half was written on my phone’s notes and the other one recored on my video cam (withouth the video just the audio).

So here’s the first part of the list, from the phone

  • Spin
  • Am I Ever Gonna Find it?
  • Quasimodo
  • Simon
  • Hanging by the moment
  • Blind
  • Take Me Away
  • Somebody Else’s Song

That’s the time when my phone went dead and I started using the video camera to record even just the audio. I haven’t ‘transcribed’ it yet coz of lack of time.. will update this post again.

one thing is for sure, most of the song from the ’second half’ was taken from the “Who We Are” album, and that “Broken” was the last song!

Great show!

Yep, saw Jason Wade and the rest of Lifehouse last night from their Araneta Coliseum  concert!  This is the first time I ever watched a foreign (super) band live… not to mention upclose/patron seat! Yeah!

Photo above was from Strange Fruit… I have not searched yutube yet for any footage of the concert, but I will soon…

Overall, the show was great and I’m sure with the crowd’s reactions (pinoys) Lifehouse will definitely come back again here!

bro’s requesting a redtube plug… here it is.. :D of course I have to do my badjojo and yuvutu too.. harharhar.. :D

Eraserheads Concert update

Since a lot of us are searching the internet for the Eraserheads concert update and concert ticket, I might as well blogged about here, since the more you blogged about the more chances of people finding the information… tulong sa kapwa, public service. :D

First thing’s first… Apparently, Marlboro (the cigarette company) is sponsoring this (monumental) Eraserheads event and a ticket has been posted from one of Multiply’s user.

I’m betting after this event (August 30, 2008) tons of video are going to be uploaded on yutube!

Special Movie/Video Links

Here’s the second part.. this is about Redtobe (the misspelling), redtube and the hunt for red october, errr or tube8.

These words are special websites that tons of people are searching too… including xhamster..

Final note… Eraserheads concert will be a blast!

Topic: Concert and Music

Yes sir! August is the month of Eraserheads with the buzz all over the blogosphere that there will be an Eraserheads concert after so, so many years of waiting!

This will be a one night concert and not totally a reunion, but the fans don’t care as long as the pinoy fab four can be seen together playing, pwede na un!

No other details yet are being announced, not even the venue nor the ticket price… only thing said from sandwich/cambio’s mailing list (Raimund Marasigan) is that there will be no cover act.. it’s going to be pure 100% e-heads..

Ayus!

Update: Above is the photo of the ticket… And our trip to Canada is on the 26th! Holy smoke!

I just reserved myself one (1) concert ticket at the Patron Seat for the Lifehouse “You and Me” Live in manila concert on July 26, 2008 throught TIcketnet.com.ph!

THey will contact me through email or call me up my cell once the reservation has been finalized!

This will make me stop doing redtube and tube8 for a while and concentrate on just preparing to see the concert, my first ever concert!

Started watching the sequel to Lethal Weapon tonight.. but got too sleepy to finished it… So me and my wife just went to bed instead… of course not before doing this quickie post.

Will try and watch it tomorrow. Probably may have to watch a movie trailer of it on Utube to motivate me further coz honestly, the start of the movie bored me a bit.. or it could be just the time.. it’s late. 11:52pm

Tonight too, before I hit the sack, i will be getting all those July Gigs from the usual local bands (philippines) for Pinoy Banda… Geez it already july 13 and I have no update on the gig schedule….

I just couldn’t find time to update that blog… Maybe I should sell it? Any takers?

How about for Tube8 and Redtube blogs? Anyone interested in those? Hmm… Those are money earners btw.

eraserheads reunion concert

yeah, there’s has been some blogs and news about it… read some details here

Could you believe that? After all these years, an eraserheads reunion concert… and all it took was a couple of million pesos (each)! Lol

Let’s continue with the current favorite song shall we?.. this time with Ugly Kid Joe’s Utube video..

Qoutes the lyrics from the song..

My child arrived just the other day;
Came to the world in the usually way
But there were planes to catch and bills to pay.
He learned to walk while I was away.
He was talkin’ ‘fore I knew it.
And as he grew he said,
“I’m gonna be like you, Dad.
You know I’m gonna be like you.”

Ah the joy of being a father… and the main character of the song missed the birth of his son, including the first steps! Who would want to miss that?!

And the cat’s in the cradle and the silver spoon,
Little boy blue and the man on the moon.
“When you comin’ home ?”
“Son, I don’t know when.
We’ll get together then.
You know we’ll have a good time then.”

This is the part of the song where the father and son talked and that they will soon get together when there’s free time (the father) which there will never be.. always busy apparently.

Well, my son turned ten just the other day.
He said , “Thanks for the ball, Dad. Come on, let’s play.
Could you teach me to throw ?” I said, “Not today.
I got a lot to do.” He said, “That’s okay.”
And he walked away and he smiled and he said,
“You know,
I’m gonna be like him, yeah.
You know I’m gonna be like him.”

Another scene from the father and son moment where in the baby is now a young child. Asking to play with his Dad, the dad is still too busy to spend some quality time with his boy. And the boy, being innocent as he is, still idolized his dad.

Well, he came from college just the other day,
So much like a man I just had to say,
“I’m proud of you. Could you sit for a while ?”
He shook his head and he said with a smile,
“What I’d really like, Dad, is to borrow the car keys.
See you later. Can I have them please ?”

The boy has become a young man. The father here starts to ‘bond’ with his son… a little late but still he tried. But his son but this time has his friends where he probably confides with coz he has no father to watch over him while he was growing up. Well he has a father but with all the stuff going on, no time for him.

I’ve long since retired, my son’s moved away.
I called him up just the other day.
“I’d like to see you, if you dont mind.”
He said, “I’d love to, Dad, if I could find the time.
You see my new job’s a hassle and the kids have the flu,
But it’s sure nice talkin’ to you, Dad.
It’s been sure nice talkin’ to you.”

Though the song is upbeat and sounds so happy, the song is actually a very sad one. It still makes me sad when it reaches this part of the song… The father is now old and is missing his son… But now the son is busy with his own family that he has no time for his own son, let along his Dad.

And as I hung up the phone it occurred to me,
He’d grown up just like me.
My boy was just like me.
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)

And so the song ends. Sad.
