BAND-MAID / Real Existence [Live at Akasaka Blitz 2017] 

Please, could you tell us what happenned to Miku 7 months before this? Thanks

@@victordiaz91929 Saiki had polyps removed in July 2017...2 weeks later,in August, Miku had nodules removed. They planned their procedures closely as to not interfere with their schedules. Miku's problem was not as serious as Saiki's so you hear very little about it.

​@@frankandre4385thanks for the info

Imho this is the best live release they have ever done, second is Shinkiba Studio Coast. These 2 concerts are far from complete. What a shame.

@@kent-oveprestberg3578 I think their concert in japan with The Warning is in two days....that should be a metal festival!

2017年7月5日の事故で禁止になったんでしたっけ?

@@457op661 日付までは覚えていませんが、ステージまで流れて行ってしまったダイバーがマイクスタンドにぶつかり、倒れたマイクが小鳩の顔面を直撃したのだと聞きました。 地方の小箱はステージまで近いですから怖いですね。

I think that the feeling that they played the songs with more power is mainly due to the stage and the closeness with the public. Every time I watch the show at Tokyo Garden and compare it to other performances like this one, I feel like that particular "something" is missing.

@@instrumentalmaid Maybe you are right. Of course, the goal of band-maid is to play their music in front of as many people as possible. Misa once said that her big dream is to be able to play in big halls and stadiums. This is absolutely normal for an ambitious musician. It is a problem for many fans, who of course want to see the band as close as possible. A real dilemma. But I'm sure...even if they could play big stadiums, they would also keep coming back to clubs like Eggman.

​@@instrumentalmaidsome of that might the venue itself and some issues with the production team on the TGT show. For one thing, the vocals on the blu ray sound cold. That and the harshness of the guitar sounds make me think first that the voltage levels were on the high end. Some guitarists keep a piece of gear called The Brown Box for such occasions. Running gear through any voltage conditioner would've helped on that side. Would've made the amps and PA warmer sounding as they should be. I don't know how much fault lies in the acoustics of the venue though. Personally, I'd rather see them do a show for video that didn't split its focus trying to do a Livestream as well. Instead of 8500 seats with people who don't know if they can shout or clap, shoot a 4000 seat hall with two shows back to back to choose from. Just my 2¢ worth. 👍

Yep you said it 😄👍🍻

I think so
