If you’re looking for good rock music, look no further than the 90s — the era where Pinoy classic hits like Eraserhead’s “With a Smile” and Rivermaya’s “214” were born. If you loved these songs, then you would’ve enjoyed the GetMusic NU Rock Years concert held last November 25 at the Smart Araneta Coliseum.
The concert featured OPM icons like Ely Buendia, Rivermaya, Ebe Dancel and Barbie Almalbis — who each performed their current and timeless hits for their dedicated fans. Here are some highlights from that epic night:
