Ely Buendia on Magic 89.9

Ely Buendia did an interview with Magic 89.9, a reason enough for me to turn on the radio. I haven't listened to the radio in AGES (Youtube and imeem are now my radio stations hehe), but thanks to an alert from Kiefer in the Circus Mailing list-- hello~, listers!-- I learned about the scheduled interview.

So, anyway. Here's a recording, and excerpts from the interview.

So how is Ely now?
"I'm doing very good. Just saw my doctor last week and said I'm in, uh, good shape."

Suzy: "What's next for you now that you're in tip-top shape? What can we expect?"
Ely: "Well, I'll be doing, I'll be going back to playing gigs in a couple of weeks, so I'm pretty excited about that."

Suzy: "A couple of weeks? Wow! You're superman!"
Ely: "No, I'm the six-million dollar man."

Suzy: "I thought it was 10?" [tawanan]
Ely: "No, it's only six." [tawa din]

May part 2 daw ba ng eheads reunion?
"I don't really know yet... But if they... have a good plan, and nice budget [tawa]... Definitely I'm willing to do it. Syempre, bitin din ako, e."

And how about Pupil?

"Pupil did a couple of shows without me... and they're doing well. [tawa] But as I said, I'm excited to go back playing with them."

Talaga bang pwede na siyang mag-gig ulit?
Okay daw talaga in two weeks, sabi nung doktor.

Nakakaaliw yung tawa ni Ely tuwing nagfa-fangirl mode si Suzy Lalo yung part na:
Suzy: "Isusulat ko to sa diary ko."
Ely: "Good luck."

Ely rocks. Period.
