>pBack in December, the group played to an audience of 75,000 people at the SMDC Festival Grounds in Parañaque City. The 30-plus songs in their set list comprised of some of the band's biggest hits, including “Ang Huling El Bimbo,” “Alapaap," "Minsan," "Spoliarium," and "With a Smile." They also brought out special guests like Jazz Nicolas, Gary Valenciano, and more. It was the first reunion concert they've done since their 2008 to 2009 campaign.>pEsquire Philippines Editor-in-Chief Paul John Caña wrote of the recent show:>p

"That’s what was so great at the EHeads show last night. It wasn’t just about the chance to see the four guys together again playing the music familiar to many of us with fancy lighting and state-of-the-art effects. It was about sharing the experience with a cross-section of Philippine society who were all there for the exact same reason. From pre-pubescent teens to senior citizens, middle-aged couples and LGBT partners, entire groups of barkadas and solo fliers, sossy-looking kolehiyalas decked out in their Saturday-night best side-by-side with simple folk giving off tambay-sa-kanto vibes—Eheads fans are the opposite of homogenous and come in all shapes and sizes. They all came out to celebrate and it was a beautiful thing to watch.">p

Buendia, Marasigan, Zabala, and Adoro have each gone on to perform in separate acts since the band's official breakup in 2002.>p
