How to REALLY get tickets for the Eraserheads Reunion Concert

EDITED: AUGUST 25, 2008

So, I heard this is not the case anymore. Sorry guys, the circumstances proved to be a bitch for this event and the organizers. There’s some good news, though, but we’ll have to wait until tomorrow (August 26) to find out.

I did not lead you on. The text below WAS the case until only very VERY recently.

Apologies all around.

Read about the NOW OFFICIAL DETAILS HERE.

Looks like some (if not all) of the things I posted on August 24 have come true

In addition, post with the press release letters are HERE.

Are you ready for this?

Tickets for The August 30 “One Night Only - Eraserheads Reunion Concert” at the Fort Bonifacio Global City will ONLY be available to you for FREE if you satisfy all of the following:

  • You are an adult smoker
  • You sign up at marlboro.ph
  • You submit a valid ID upon signing up.

Here’s what hasn’t been written anywhere yet in the event that you do sign up at marlboro.ph. You are expected to only upload a CLEAR SNAPSHOT/PHOTO of either of the following VALID IDs when registering (because, yeah, at one time during the sign-up, you will be asked to upload something):

  • GSIS ID (with photo)
  • SSS ID (with photo)
  • Passport (of course, with photo)
  • Driver’s License (with photo)
  • PRC License (valid with photo)

It is important that you submit a CLEAR snapshot/picture of your Valid ID (with an indication of the owner’s DATE OF BIRTH to ensure that you are an adult) so chances of your application being rejected is reduced to NIL. If you take a VGA photo of that, goodluck! LOL

Note that you will receive more than an email confirmation to prompt you that your application is being processed. When I say “more than,” maybe expect a phone call so make sure you provide the correct mobile/contact numbers on the appropriate/required field.

As already disclosed elsewhere before, around 35,000 tickets will be made available so there’s enough for virtually everyone. Validation of all submitted info are done tediously/painstakingly/manually by real live people so it may take a bit for you to receive feedback.

NO, you DO NOT need to collect packs of cigarettes and exchange them for tickets. NO, it is NOT open to the general public it being a “by invitation only” event. And NO, you do not have to start smoking! DON’T BE SILLY, YOU’RE NOT THAT DESPERATE! You would rather be listening to their CDs because they’d sound better there, anyway (remember their gigs in the past? Did they ever sound good? There you go).

Lastly, remember that photo of an Eraserheads Reunion Concert ticket on mulitply that we’ve seen a few weeks back? THAT’S FAKE, as verified. Sheesh, the lengths people would do to get attention.

You heard this juicy bit here FIRST! Now be good boys and girls and spread the news like wildfire. If you want to question my source, let’s just say it’s reliable. I mean, come on. Fritz = Rockstar. Gimme a break!

See you at the event!

        Too bad! Watch out na lang for the photos. I’m sure there’ll be lots of them on the net uploaded right after the concert :D

      Thanks for the info, dude. It’s a big help. Now, who’s the guy that keeps on barking those anti-tobacco statements? He should read your blog to clarify matters.

      I already registered at marlboro.ph. I’m just wondering why there aren’t etickets yet. How do you submit an ID?

      1. Fritz on 17.08.2008 at 03:22 (Reply)

        See where you can call them up at this page https://www.marlboro.ph/ACS/ContactUs.aspx and ask how you can send them your photo. I understand they accept faxed IDs.

    7. vans on 17.08.2008 at 20:03 (Reply)

      waaaaa… fanu yan wla aq nan mga gnun id.. sna ung mga nde nkpag sign up sa marlboro site. in time n andun n sa concert ay mkapanuod pren. =r

      1. Fritz on 18.08.2008 at 03:43 (Reply)

        WHY CAN’T YOU PLEOPE WRITE NORMALLY ON THE WEB FOR CRYIN’ OUT LOUD?! TEXTESE? SERIOUSLY?! Anyway, may I suggest that you call them up and maybe they can present to you a solution, which I doubt since there are also about 35k people out there who have valid IDs and who are just as eager. Good luck, mate!

    8. erms on 18.08.2008 at 01:04 (Reply)

      d ba pwede prc license? d pa naka renew license ko eh….

      1. Fritz on 18.08.2008 at 04:22 (Reply)

        Lemme clarify that I’m not in any way connected with the organizers. I wrote this post to clarify things with what I have recently myself found out. The people who are in best position to answer you are at the other end of the phone numbers written here https://www.marlboro.ph/ACS/ContactUs.aspx. As far as I know, it is of prime importance to them that they see your birthdate written on the valid ID to establish that you are indeed an adult. Since a PRC license may not be issued to minors, a PRC ID issued to you would necessarily mean your age is qualified. Inquire with them whether or not they will accept an expired PRC ID because, as I’ve already mentioned, I am not in any way connected with PM nor the event organizers.

      hi, is the concert be held in CCP or The Fort? ahm i was blocked upon registering because i tried it twice without finishing it then they gave me a hotline number to call and clear my name on marlboro website pero wala namang sumasagot sa linya. ive been calling for a week now pero wala pa rin. yung kuya ko wala namang natatanggap na email/text. yung concert hindi maintindihan kung tuloy ba aor ano ba talaga. napakamisteryoso kase. mabuti pa sana ngbenta na alng sila ng tickets nang mas madali yung buhay natin!

      1. Fritz on 18.08.2008 at 08:18 (Reply)

        With what I’ve gathered and from what I already mentioned, the event is going to be at The Fort. Let me AGAIN reiterate that: I’m not with in any way connected with the organizers. I wrote this post just to share the right info to readers. The people who can best answer you are at the other end of the phone numbers written here https://www.marlboro.ph/ACS/ContactUs.aspx. Like you, I’m only waiting for further developments regarding the concert. And, no, if they sold the tickets, knowing how much each EHead got as TF in order to perform together, I don’t think it will make your life easier as it will cost more than what we all can normally afford. Good luck on contacting them, it’s your only glimmer of hope, so far, AFAIK.

          calm down Fritz. :D He probably just commented without reading the whole post. :D

          I’m blessed then, none of the people who commented on my blog are like this.. :D They READ first.

          Nice post though. Very informative.

            Sana lang kasi lahat nagbabasa rin BAGO MAN LANG MAG-COMMENT. tsk tsk tsk :D WALASTIK!

    14. hana on 19.08.2008 at 22:52 (Reply)

      Hi Fritz! Thanks for the post. Not sure if Markku knows about this already. Sa dinami-raming tsismis kung paano makakakuha ng tickets na binalita ko sa kanya e lagi nya akong sinasabihan not to believe everything I read on the net.

      Well, you are reputable, aren’t you? hehe :) I’ll make sure he knows about this. Thanks again :)

      1. Fritz on 20.08.2008 at 00:14 (Reply)

        Hana, kala ko alam nyo na. Yes, go tell Markku para kitakitz!

        1. hana on 22.08.2008 at 16:22 (Reply)

          I’m not too sure if I will watch, I’m not a smoker e. Markku was a smoker. Pwede kaya yun? ahaha. Hayaan ko na si Markku mag-isip kung ano gagawin nya :)

          1. Fritz on 23.08.2008 at 05:09 (Reply)

            Saw the link at Markku’s rebelpixel site. W00t! Sana tuloy talaga (kasi who knows, di ba). And sana you both can be there!

        yes yes! Will fully charge the phone in prep for full coverage LOL

      lol @ the toopets…

      idiots, ya’ll deserve NOT to see the concert, stay home and try not to fuck up the gene pool.

      1. Fritz on 20.08.2008 at 10:31 (Reply)

        And the mostest toopitestestest, the most high grand queen of the damned race who can’t read much, has manifested her presence in the form of jen right there (on 19.08.2008 at 13:32). GOD I’M STILL SO RILED UP BY THAT STUPID STUPID STUPID QUESTION! ANG TANGA LANG!

    17. GlamFab on 21.08.2008 at 18:32 (Reply)

      Ei, Fritzie (it’s me…ur Loose-Your-Breath buddy!) I am so impressed by how you clearly blogged the info. I wanted to do the same thing myself but knowing my situation…

      I, too is as frustrated as you are answering some “GET-SOME-BRAIN” questions…My message for those who until now are getting nuts finding answers to their questions not discussed in this blog, please call the organizer’s office (search the number, i’m sure it’s published somewhere…be resourceful!)…Allow me to stress some points further, my friend…

      peeps, according to Fritz’s & myself’s very credible source the “concert” is not a public function but otherwise a PRIVATE EVENT wherein e-heads will be performing to entertain their guests that is why the “ticket” which is a PERSONALIZED INVITATION is FREE and non-transferable. To get one is to meet all the above-mentioned criterias and more…entiendes?…and they confirmed THERE IS NO TICKET/INVITE BEING RELEASED YET so whoever say they got tickets already, it’s no longer April to get fooled folks!; obviously, getting it is not as easy as buying one for an normal concert…so GOOD LUCK TO US ALL!

      1. Fritz on 21.08.2008 at 19:20 (Reply)

        I CAN HAZ VALIDATION! w00t! Thanks for the additional inputs @GlamFab (I know who you are, LOL).

    18. chi on 21.08.2008 at 19:40 (Reply)

      ei tnx po sa info…but im wondering why there are no calls inviting me to the concert? i talked with the operator this morning she just said wait for the details..anu yun? walang kasiguraduhan\?? huhuhu…i wanna watch that concert and i think once na lang yan..wala lang hehehe…well im not a smoker :>

      1. Fritz on 23.08.2008 at 05:10 (Reply)

        Baka dahil you are not a smoker, di kaya?

    19. disappointedbutwantstogo on 22.08.2008 at 13:02 (Reply)

      aaaarrrrrgggghhhh! i waited for more than 2 weeks for the confirmation but i didn’t get any.. so i called the marlboro hotline yesterday only to find out that they didn’t accept my id.. i thought they only need like a proof of the date of birth so i had my voter’s id scanned (and even faxed!).. the rep i spoke with said they only accept GSIS, SSS, PRC, TIN, Passport, or driver’s license which unfortunately i do NOT have!!! it’s so frustrating! it’s been several months since i applied for the SSS ID and i haven’t received it yet.. i don’t have a passport either.. and for God’s sake i don’t even drive so how in the world can i get a driver’s license?! i only have my voter’s id, company id, nbi and police clearance, birth cert… waaaahhhhh! can’t they accept such docus instead?! it’s valid anyway…

      1. Fritz on 23.08.2008 at 05:13 (Reply)

        Voter’s ID has your photo, right? Only adults can vote so I think you have to try calling them up again an explain that by this virtue, maybe they can take this as proof of your age. I have no authority over their rules nor do I have a say at how they filter applications. Good luck on the application!

    20. kurt on 22.08.2008 at 16:23 (Reply)

      i am already on the red list….where the hell’s the invitation and tickets? i still see this dude on his new motorcycle on the marlboro website….i need to see the eraserheads!!!! these kind of things only happen once…i’d be stupid to miss it…

    21. Jem on 22.08.2008 at 17:17 (Reply)

      Sir I have a question, what if you don’t have any valid ID? pero may kakilala ka na meron pero di naman sya interesado tapos sya yung mag reregister at pag nakakuha sya ng tix, pwede bang ako yung gumamit nung ticket nya instead na sya? parang ginamit lang sya to get a ticket. o may confirmation ba talaga sa tix na dapat yung nag register din yung mismong gagamit ng tix? thanks.

      1. Fritz on 23.08.2008 at 05:15 (Reply)

        LOL that’s cheating! I think they can validate the identity of the original person who applied. I THINK. Then again, I could be wrong. It’s up to you if you want to take the risk of being denied entrance at the gate of the event.

    22. ria on 22.08.2008 at 19:30 (Reply)

      hey great post! although nakuha ko na yung validation ng sakin. i was surprised by how fast they processed my application… 2 days! amazing. i really must look like a smoker with my awful drivers license picture.

      1. Fritz on 23.08.2008 at 05:16 (Reply)

        Hey! I smoke but I LOOK GOOD! YOUNG EVEN! Maybe it’s the genes. Hahahaha! Good for you! I still am not confirmed myself (crosses fingers)

    23. disappointedbutwantstogo on 23.08.2008 at 10:58 (Reply)

      will the concert really push through? only 7 days away from the said date but we don’t have real details yet.. no news on tv as well.. darn that marlboro registration thing, i don’t know why they won’t accept other valid IDs.. a former colleague told me she’s been registered to red list a long time but until now she can’t see any updates on the concert.. i hope this pushes through.. i filed a one-day leave from work just for this!

    24. GlamFab on 23.08.2008 at 16:23 (Reply)

      SIR Fritzie (as named by Jem) LOL…bagay sa ‘yo bro! But sorry for Jen, my source says your identity will be validated at the gates so kung ano man ‘yang binabalak mo don’t be foolish if you don’t want to end up behind bars (as in!).
      But I see some bad clouds comin’…
      Question: What would you feel if this supposedly “once-in-a-million-years” event won’t push through?

      1. Fritz on 23.08.2008 at 16:36 (Reply)

        I heard this bit of a bad news last night. That’d truly suck :(

        1. Fritz on 23.08.2008 at 16:40 (Reply)

          I hope though, by the awesome powers of my sheer and inborn rockstardom that a deferment could be arranged at least? :(

    25. GlamFab on 23.08.2008 at 17:01 (Reply)

      LOL why am I not so surprised you know this already!…I saw this coming the other day…huhuhu…what a diappointment, really but you’ll appreciate the reasons behind it…I’ll tell you when we see each other soon :0)…things in this world are truly getting more and more complicated..why does simplicity becoming extinct?

    26. chi on 23.08.2008 at 18:27 (Reply)

      darn it! hmmm…hay naku …i callled the operator this morning…no comment pa rin…anu ba yun??? im being nice naman e…except that i really dont smoke…i joined the marlboro thing just for the sake makanood lang ako ng eheads concert…fritz siguro employee ka ng marlboro”?”"?? hehehe…geh palakasin mu pa kita nyo! juk! :>

      1. Fritz on 23.08.2008 at 19:41 (Reply)

        chi, do you understand what a disclaimer is? Let’s say that you do and that you forgot I made one, do you know what you just did? Yes, false accusation, that’s what. Malicious, too. Where’s the disclaimer? READ!
