Eraserheads: The Reunion Concert is a 2008 concert film documenting the Philippine alternative rock band Eraserheads' reunion concert on August 30, 2008. It was released in Philippine theaters on November 26, 2008,[1] and on DVD on January 31, 2009. A live album was also released by BMG Records (Pilipinas) in the same month.
Background
[edit]In July 2008, the band confirmed they would reunite for a concert at the CCP Open Grounds on August 30.[2] Initially sponsored by Philip Morris, the company later backed out after facing criminal charges by the Philippine Department of Health (DOH) for violating the Tobacco Regulation Act of 2003 prohibiting tobacco companies from sponsoring artistic events; they had also promised a free but invitation-only show for adults and smokers.[3] The concert was later sponsored by Radiohead Productions with tickets being sold and the venue moved to the Bonifacio Global City Open Grounds in Taguig.[4]
The band went ahead with the reunion concert as planned, with Jazz Nicolas of Itchyworms joining in as session musician. However, it was cut short at the end of the first set due to Buendia being rushed to Makati Medical Center after experiencing chest pains.[5]
