It's always heart warming to hear or even read stories about the humble beginning of the Eraserheads. The frequent visit at a carinderia, the story of hitching rides with friends and the 'sabit rides' on jeepneys during the wee hour of not having a ride to their gig; the unbelievable tale of Ely when he had to leave his id card to a store owner and promised to come back and pay their meals. Barya lang kasi ang dala namin....When you hear stories like this, and you see their faces on TV, it's no wonder that you'll feel wow...and identify with the character of the band. They are the common tao....that's why people love them.
