Four individuals.
Thousands of fans.
One night.
The night was August 30, 2008. It was the much-awaited comeback of the band that redefined Pinoy rock. And I was there to witness it all.
At 8:15, the band came to life. Singing the the song Alapaap, it was the start of another chapter in OPM history. Then, came the other popular Eheads songs: Sem-break, Toyang, Wag mo nang Itanong, Ligaya and many more.
The song Lightyear was the last one for the first set. But it felt different that after the song, Ely kneeled down and leaned on his guitar. An intermission of 20 minutes began.
But then 20 turned to 30 then to an hour. The band came to the stage minus Ely. His sister announced that due to overwhelming feeling his brother has to be rushed to the hospital.
It was the end of a dream, but then that one hour of pure nostalgic feeling will always remain inside of me.
