ERASERHEADS made history as the first Filipino artist group to perform with a full packed audience at Peacock Theatre while loyal fans enjoyed non-stop OPM hits!

By Oliver Carnay

It’s a feat and challenging enough to think that Eraserheads was just in Los Angeles last year at the iconic Shrine Auditorium filling up the 6,500 seats, but Charles Victor Entertainment, the company solely producing the L.A. comeback this last Saturday (July 13) was confident enough to pull-off another streak of success at Peacock Theatre.  The hi-tech venue, formerly known as Nokia Theatre and Microsoft Theatre, is one of the largest indoor stages in the United States where well-known Hollywood big events and major musicians hold performances that could fill-up its 7,100 capacity.
 

As soon as 7:30 hits, the group immediately didn’t waste time serenading the crowd starting from ALAPAAP, segued with COMBO ON THE RUN, SEMBREAK, MALING AKALA, TOYANG, SHIRLEY, HEY JAY, LIGAYA .. they continued with JULIE TEARJERKY, HUWAG MO NANG ITANONG, KAMA SUPRA, SINO SA ATIN, INSOMYA, TAMA KA .. 

.. and of course other hits such as HARANA, TINDAHAN NI ALING NENA, WITH A SMILE, SUPERPROXY, and more.  The gig ended up with three encore songs PARE KO, MAGAZINE, and their signature song ANG HULING BIMBO.  

The two and a half hour concert was one of the most successful Filipino concerts to have hit Los Angeles this year.  Congratulations to Charles Victor Entertainment www.charlesvictorentertainment.com and his Los Angeles-based team Tommie Mopia, Marvin Cabaysa Aritrangco, etc., with community partners Inter-HealthCare Sports, Vynz Grabien Productions, Diamond Sponsors: PK Dreambags, PsychUp Nursing PC, Cerritos Infiniti.  For transportations and mobility needs of the artists: XYZ Global Express, Cerritos Infinity, and Victor AutoConnet.  Food sponsors include: The Embotidos, Manila Inasal, Fiesta Fastfood, Dollar Hits, Chowfun Express, Jollibee, Sweet Escape by Leng, Titos Bar & Grill, Titas of Manila, and Cebuchon sa Barrio XMC.  Lights and Sounds by DJ HeadThrasher.
