I first heard Tytan almost 40 years ago and bought Rough Justice at an import record store in Shinjuku. The reason I bought it was probably because of the cool jacket. When I listened to it, the NWOBHM vibe was so good that I still listen to it today. At that time, Tytan was not introduced on the only heavy metal radio program or magazine in Japan. I had no fans around me, and I thought I would never have a chance to see Tytan live because there was very little information about them for 40 years. So I couldn't believe that they came to Japan this time. I still dream about the fact that I went to that concert. I couldn't believe that I met so many Tytan fans at the show. Kevin was in tears of joy at the chants welcoming Tytan. Thanks for a great night.

Kev's such a great bloke. I'm honoured to have met him and, like your good self, sat down with him and Dave DuFort. It doesn't get a lot better than that.
It was great being present when these two gents reunited on stage and backstage. I hope we will see more of these. Hopefully, Les Binks, Simon Wright and/or Steve Mann can do some ad-hoc reunions with Tytan.
Well, it ain't too shabby for being recorded on a mobile phone from the audience. The quality of the song and the great performance shine through. Who knows? Perhaps there will be an official Tytan live release sometime soon.
Unlikely. I was part of the team that put the shows together and we hoped to record all three bands on both nights but we never managed to put an agreement together. It was filmed with two cameras, so some better footage should surface at some point...
Love performances like this where the vocal isint perfect but the intention and veracity of the singer is 100% kick ass! RR is a fantastic combination of RJD, DC, and Ian Gillan. 🤘🥃
I'm still waiting for the "Midori-cam" from these competitions !! I want to see her expressions while watching/judging! ( Thank you Midori for doing these 'events' ❤🔥💚❤🔥 ) 🐺 dreg👁
I am not a big fan of growling, but it is cool in moderation. That's why I said only 1 or 2 songs. Just to maybe spark more interest in the band by those who love that sort of stuff. @@PaulEMoz
Yes! Absolutely! She was also the best of the bunch too, better than Dr. Mikannibal IMO. Maybe a song called "Blackbites" or "Black & White". Haruna having fun with the blast beats.
