New Year Countdown 2015

Spent the last and beginning of the year at Resort’s World Manila for Year-end countdown.
Mitoy, Princess.. blah blah performed. but the reason we went there is because of this guy..

We were super close to Ely Buendia. This is the closest I've been to any concert. Thanks to Yeng’s fans. They went away after the Pop Rock Princess or whatever they call her performed so we were able to stay in front.

His first song was “Higante”.He sang 2 Eraserheads songs. Around 11:50 they stopped, then the host went to stage and let the previous performers and wait for 12 midnight.The Dawn also was there. Me and my brother were waiting for them to interact or to greet each other. Well they did but not that significant so we were quite disappointed.. haha… I can see his fake smile while having the countdown.. haha. but that's true Ely Buendia attitude so it's ok with me.

The perks of being in front of Ely Buedia.. we took his pictures, took stolen selfies with him… and we had eye contact with him even he is wearing eye glasses the whole time.  

After all these years I must say that he still has it. Sure, he does not have that energy of Bamboo or Rico Blanco but Ely is what he is now because he has this charisma and unique songs that can stand the test of time.

He barely talk during the set, but I don't care I just waiting what will he perform next. My favorite is his version of "Magasin" ballad style. He sang "Maselang Bahaghari", "Alapaap", Huwag Mo Nang Itanong" and of course "Huling Elbimbo"

It was really nice spending the new year with THE ELY BUENDIA. It doesn't happen every time.
