And maybe he's had it with exploiters in the business.<br /><br />Christy Fermin said what? Laos or malalaos hardly seem to apply to an artist already assured of his place in the sun. Nothing more to prove, sabi nga. <br /><br />A trivia which might interest you: he and other e-heads were being interviewed by a panel of writers from PDI when one of the writers noted he had an absent look and was slouched on his chair. "Are you bored, Ely?" -- one of the interviewers asked. Ely said: "Nope, I always look like this." <br /><br />Malapit na daw lumabas yung ultraelectromagnetic jam part ii.

I don't want Ely to die. I practically grew up with his music...oh well, the E-heads' music. I'm happy that he's well now.<br /><br />I do hope that he can bounce back in the music scene and write songs again. Songs like the ones he made when he was still with the E-heads. His songs before are so different from the ones he's composing nowadays. <br /><br />There was this news months ago about him in The Buzz. It was reported that he went "amok" in Libis shouting that his life is miserable and that his recording company just conned him. Christy Fermin commented "ganyan talaga pag laos na" I don't know but I felt hurt with her comment.<br /><br />Sorry medyo napahaba ang comment ko :)vernaloohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07653720128817138648noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4800590664272013743.post-71480143572468795452007-01-21T19:07:00.000+08:002007-01-21T19:07:00.000+08:00Dimaks!

In Hollywood - James Dean, Marilyn Monroe. And the Kennedys. (But the Kennedys are a different story I suppose .. what a great and tragic family.) <br /><br />But our Ely should escape that fate.

I got a friend, one attack and that's it .. didnt know what hit him. <br /><br />Ah the battle of the schools. Basta magaling naman parepareho in their own way. Pero my next favorite band is Orange and Lemons. <br /><br />I would have missed the E-heads music if it werent for my children. During our out-of-town trips, they wouldn't play anything else. So their music just grew in me. Now, they're saying: You're not Pinoy if you don't know Eraserheads.Forever59erhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12132767206301934794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4800590664272013743.post-18933785885656811122007-01-19T20:20:00.000+08:002007-01-19T20:20:00.000+08:00You have to admire the guy though, he came from a ...You have to admire the guy though, he came from a gig or two before he had a heart attack. No worries, he'll get well and start writing songs again. Let's just hope he listens to his body this time, so that this doesn't happen again.<br /><br />I'm a fan of the guy.. don't sue me. ~_~<br /><br />On a lighter note: Another friend told me that you'd think the E-heads came from Ateneo and Parokya ni Edgar came from UP.
