Eraserheads’ Ely Buendia, Raymund Marasigan, Buddy Zabala and Marcus Adoro will be finally sharing the stage again as they are set to reunite in their “Huling El Bimbo” concert on Dec. 22.

The former bandmates announced the much-awaited event which will be held at SMDC Festival Grounds, through a poster on their respective Instagram pages today, Sept. 19. The poster is reminiscent of the cover of their iconic first album “Ultraelectromagneticpop!” released in 1993.

Buendia, Marasigan, Zabala and Adoro earlier hinted about their reunion by showing photos of an inverted letter “E,” also on their Instagram pages.

Eraserheads — known for their hit songs “Pare Ko,” “Ligaya” and “Alapaap,” among many others — was formed in 1989 and played together for over a decade before disbanding in 2002.

The rock band reunited for a concert in 2008, but it was cut short when Buendia reportedly collapsed during the event and was rushed to the hospital. The following year, Eraserheads held a concert entitled “The Final Set.” Buendia also teased about the band’s return last year, saying it might have a reunion if former Vice President Leni Robredo runs for President.
