京都は最高だった! Kyoto was amazing!

9月14日の土曜日は朝の9時頃からでて、本当に一日頑張って移動からリハーサルからライブと京都のライブは大変だったけど、最高だった!

September 14th was a really long day traveling to Kyoto, rehearsing with the band there, and doing a late night show…. but it was an amazing show!

 

ライブ会場の METROも絶対またライブをやりたいすばらしい会場だった。

The venue itself was really great too. I can't wait to go back there again to perform.

今回は天気の悪いなかでのライブだったけど、満員になった会場のライブは本当に盛り上がって楽しかった。

This time the concert was performed in some really bad weather but we had a full house for the event and it was great…!

FUTENのバックバンドをつとめて、一緒にジャムセッションやコラボできて、この特別なイベントに参加できた。

このイベントは毎年FUTENのオリジナルメンバーであったドラマーの追悼ライブ。

彼も自分と同じバイカーで、バイクで亡くなられたという残念な話を聞きましたが、こうやって多くの人が集まっているのをみて嬉しかったです。

The Lo-Fi played as the band for FUTEN. We jammed and we were able to do FUTEN songs together and it was a real privilege at this special event!

This event is a tribute event for Fujitani-san who is the original drummer for FUTEN. He too was a biker and it meant a lot to me that we were able to play for his show.

It's great that so many people came here in his memory.

土曜日の深夜なので完全クラブな感じのライブは久しぶり、、、、!!!

---------- English --------------

We're about to get into rehearsal... and tomorrow we're heading to Kyoto to do a show with FUTEN with our good friend B-Bandj.

It's been a few years since we initially booked a show at the Kyoto Metro venue.....!


Last time was when we were supposed to perform with DAN BAKER when he came here on tour.
Unfortunately the earthquake and following disaster forced us to reschedule.

It's great to have an opportunity to finally play, but also with a good friend as a yearly tribute event to the original drummer for Futen when they played as a band.

He was also a rider like me and motorcyclists all know that crashes are inevitable. You do your best to prepare for it though.

Hope we have a great show!

If your in the Kanasai area we'd love it if you could drop by!

Live report Nakatsuka Takeshi event @ Jz Brat

中塚さんのイベント7月16日は本当に楽しい一日でした!沢山の方に楽しんで頂けて感謝しています!スペシャルゲストでDan Bakerの時に一緒に共演した B-Bandjも一緒にまたステージを盛り上げてくれて、パーカッションにWinchester TETE Boyeが入ってくれました!楽しんでくれた皆様、ありがとう!

We did a really fun show at the Jz Brat located in the Cerulean Tower in Shibuya.
This event was hosted by Nakatsuka Takeshi who was also the host when we did the studio live on Nippon Broadcasting's "Suono Dolce" show.

We were really excited when we got the call asking us to be in his special event at the Jz Brat. We played with some really fun bands like LIL and the POP ORCHESTRA. Also we were pleasantly surprised to meet someone that had attended our show in Sapporo back when we released Stereo Soul and toured in Hokkaido.

For this show too we had B-Bandj join the Lo-Fi stage to MC over our tunes.
Our special guest musician was (from Ghana) Winchester "Tete" Boye. The music was really vibin' and as far as we could tell, it must have been a good show considering all the smiles from the great audience that night!

A special thanks also to the great staff that night that made it all happen....
