You should get a clinic
Previously, I have adored Ely Buendia and Francis M.'s ILAW album. I also have specified that I would willingly listen to Wasak Waltz anytime of the day.
I have watched the teaser video and it served its purpose, I waited patiently. Sir Ely becomes a doctor in this music video/nirvana. Will look online where his clinic might be.

Like a box of pure joy
Pictured above is a box and its contents representing the happiness of age-confused teens living in the world full of absurdities - which can actually be written in pleasing, even happiness-inducing soundtracks of Pinoy life. I love the Eraserheads and this box set was made to make every fan happy.

Wasak Waltz
I was born into consciousness when the Eraserheads (the band, not the music) was already history.
Introduced to their music by a good friend, I got hooked instantly. There was once a time in my life where that friend and I lay down on a cold, tiled floor while the sound system was playing Ligaya. There, we contemplated on how unlucky we are that we live in the time of the post-Eraserhead revolution. It was depressing as hell.
Depression was only cured by the fact that all the members are still alive and kicking and are still making music.
One particular song is currently on my replay. Its Wasak Waltz, track number 8 in Ely Buendia's (Vocalist of Eraserheads) and Francis M.'s (pioneer Pinoy rapper) album I.L.A.W. (In Love And War). Listen to it and I promise you, you'll feel happier immediately after. It is a certified ear canal drug.
UPDATE: A friend told me that Sir Ely Buendia would be shooting a music video for Wasak Waltz. I saw the tweet and he sure knows how to keep his fans happy. I will be watching out!

When Luck Loves You
I just bought a double cover back issue of Myx Mag Phils. I was so lucky, given I bought a magazine feauturing 3 of my favorite artists. Pupil, Sandwich and Lady Gaga (in no particular order). Judging by the facts, I could have won a lottery that day.
To top it all up, I only had to pay 30 Pesos for the package.

New Music Album
Shown in this video is the album cover, just in case you can't read. Click the sleeping rectangle to hear the first song in the album.
I just bought Ely Buendia's Wanted: Bedspacer album. Its an original copy because the thought of downloading a knock-off, subpar album from an Eraserheads member is just awful.
The album has 10 songs. I never heard of their lyrics before so I'm 90% sure they are new songs. I kind of see techno in it, a dash of indie and a sparkle of true music, a new solo artist named Ely. Its music that wasn't made for the audience but was made for the urge of making it.
This is supposed to be a review of the album but its hard criticizing an album which happened to be my dream, a techno, indie Ely. My suggestion is you buy it and be happy with me.
If you live in Iloilo, you can buy the album at the second floor, upper ground floor whatever of the mall. Some people who are still raising funds tend to hide this album behind April Boy's music. Be sure to dig well!

Eraserheads Box Set!
Last year, around September, news broke out of the formulation of a box set consisted of all the albums of Eraserheads
. A few weeks after it was confirmed and the box set was targeted to sell out March 2010. Now its April and finally, I made myself understand I have to wait some more for the set.
First of all, I am a 16 year old giant fan of the Eraserhead
s. Last year, the Eheads were just another old band I didn't care about until I got hold of a copy of their music. It was nighttime and it felt like I have memorized all the songs on my computer. I listened to Toyang, got interested and listened to Fruitcake, after sometime, I was in a live concert, happily dying in front of the Eheads. I was in love with their music
because anyone can easily imagine theme selves in it. Every song can easily be about you and it feels good.
I am religiously checking NU107's website which is supposed to be the first one to blog about the release of the blog set. There are still no photos or updated info about the box set and the latest is the fan photo contest, where your photo with the Eheads can be included in the box set, which ended March 5, 2010.
So for now, I am totally clueless of what is happening in the creation of the phenomenal box set which was supposed to be release last week of March. Waiting is not one my favorite things to do and waiting for a treasure box of your idols is purgatory. Only a backstage pass to The Fame Monster can make me feel happier now that I remembered all about the box set I heard about last September.

Watch Waiting Shed by Ely Buendia Online!
Photo from here.
Hello readers!
You might have heard of Ely Buendia. The guy who wrote a couple of songs and sang for Eraserheads. The same guy who revolutionized the alternative rock music scene of the Philippines. The exact same guy that makes me sad at night, wailing why I wasn't a college student during the late 1980's so I could have lived alongside him. I'm just asking if you know HIM.
Guess what, he's also into film-making and I just saw his Cinemanila entry, Waiting Shed here.
After I saw it, I immediately thought of making a film about my classmates inspired by an Eheads song. I have a camera and the guts so why not?
