I have always liked Josh Groban for his voice. His performance on the Emmy’s just shows how good he is as a performer. Apparently, he can also rap. The moment he sang ‘The Simpsons’ in his tenor voice, I was speechless until the very last second of his bit. Imagine, Josh Groban rapping! I am definitely in awe!

Anyway, I still like Eraserheads. When I first heard the chords of Alapaap as they started, 10 minutes after 8:00 pm (yes! there was a countdown), I started jumping up and down, accidentally pulling the strap off my bag. Well, back to my story…
Ligaya followed and then there were fireworks. Hearing and watching them play together after a very long time brought back memories of attending their gigs three times in a row. Buying their albums (in casette tape) and listening to their music on the way to the province. Memorizing song lyrics on the album cover which was covered with each of their scribbled autograph. So there they were, several feet away from me, and with a space as big as The Fort it certainly felt like kilometers. A group of fans would shout, “Group hug!” in between songs, as they played 13 other songs. The last song, Lightyears was somehow anticlimactic since the show was not really supposed to end with that. It was great nonetheless. As my mother said, we were part of history. Okay, music history.
