Along with his actual beverage, Raymund Marasigan was swilling down the rhymes and rhythms of rap act Skarm: always an appreciative man despite his stature, always the sort to savor good work and not merely wolf it down, no matter the source. \u201cTapusin ko lang si Skarm, ha,\u201d he said when I asked for a few minutes of his time, his head still mildly bobbing despite his distance from the sound source, dancing without dancing, in place but never stationary. As soon as the duo was up, he reemerged, equally eager about some other band\u2019s new music: the Eraserheads\u2019, a sort of wily phantasm that has evaded its fans and, well, the band itself for over a decade. I mean, everything\u2019s coming up roses now, but the quartet did break up, and a teary reassembly wasn\u2019t going to materialize right after \u201cgraduation.\u201d Hindsight and the passing of time were luxuries then, but they are within reach and much needed now.
