Band-Maid: Anaheim CA 4K Full Concert! Aug 15, 2023

Hey Band-Maid Fans! I made it to The House of Blues in Anaheim CA for my 3rd Band-Maid Live and had an Amazing Experience! This is the ENTIRE FULL SHOW straight through from beginning to end.
I had the regular VIP ticket but wound up upgrading to The House of Blues VIP seat way in the back. It's a long story why I upgraded which I will cover in my upcoming videos.
Enjoy the Show!

Can I know, what is your highlight song for this show? For me, Rinne. Anybody else?

[@WanderingSoulsWebzine]

@@foong171183 Rinne, is a great surprise indeed. Didn't expect that to be in the setlist and it's a great song. Their setlists make me happy everytime though. Some of my favorites are always there. Songs like Domination, Play, No God and Daydreaming. What I always like about their gigs, there are changes in their setlist every gig. You never get the exact thing every gig. That keeps it interesting. Especially for people who go every time (or a lot). Thanks for putting out this question. Anyone else wants to answer this?

[@jamesredman1263]

@@UncleYoshi The way you describe your impression of Band-Maid is similar to my experience. My youngest son had given me some names of Asian bands he thought I might find interesting. When I heard Band-Maid's music video of Choose Me in late 2015, my immediate reaction was "Holy crap! They rock!" The more I listened and learned about them, the more I respected their dedication to making quality music. They were the first band in years that moved me to buy their CD albums. And while I have been learning about more Japanese rock and metal bands since then, and liking many, they have continued to be my favorite band since that first listen. So, I am 71 and grew up in the US as rock was also growing. I remember Elvis Presley becoming famous in the 1950s, Chuck Berry and Buddy Holly writing their own songs, then the Beatles in the 1960s pursuing more variations in subject and music composition, and others also exploring. This approach developed all the best bands to follow. I see Band-Maid as one of the great bands in all points - creativity, depth and complexity as appropriate, musicianship, vocals with feeling, and also a wonderful stage presence. They bring satisfyingly strong music, joy, and hope for the future. In the US, in this century rock has been suppressed by the big recording companies in favor of rap. There are some good bands here, but "Top 40" radio tends to ignore them. Japan has continued to develop MANY good bands, and the world is becoming more aware of them. KZbin and other video platforms are helping do that. Band-Maid always does their best.

I feel like Kanami's English is getting better and better 💚 Kind of random but during Freedom, if you look at the front row, you can see a guy jumping up and down. Right below A-chan's kick drum. That guy was causing some trouble, and was jumping up on some guy. At 1:27:05 you can see Saiki telling him to settle down. That guy pushed me aside to get close to the front lol He kept thrashing and stepping on me. Around 1:27:25 she tells him again to settle down At some point, Saiki and I kept making eye contact and staring at each other because of that 😅

I made eye contact with Saiki when they started playing Domination and at 1:40:15, I screamed "Spotify" and made eye contact with Kanami when her and Saiki asked how we knew about them. The mosh pit did get a little crazy especially when they played freedom. The craziness of the pit got the girls attention a few times and if you look carefully after their last mc, you can see they started to get worried looks on their faces. But on the bright side that did case Miku, Saiki and Kanami to look in my general direction. I like to think they all saw me! It was so worth it to get there almost 3 hours before the show started!

ここ最近のファンカムのみんちょの演奏は神がかってる！ライブに作曲にめちゃめちゃハードなのにめちゃめちゃ練習してんだろうな・・・

[@UncleYoshi]

みくちゃんが言ってましたけど バンドメイド は大体毎日 8時間ぐらい練習してする事言ってました‥。かなみちゃんが特に練習してると思います‥。

[@lurkmerchant]

8時間ってフルタイムの仕事で週末も休みなしってめっちゃブラックやないですか？ 😂😂😂

[@johnmatthew102]

At the end of Rock In Me, Miku says "Thank you, kurrupo!", not "thank you for your phone", lol. Kurrupo ties in with Miku's pigeon identity (it's complicated) and she also uses the name for her solo projects and tiktok channel.

[@UncleYoshi]

I first thought maybe Kuruppo had something to do with Dr. Slump anime where gacchan the baby bee speaks like that & eats anything in sight 😂

[@foong171183]

Can I ask a question? How do you discover Band-Maid? I discovered it because of my master final year research (during COVID time) about the Japanese music industry and I've found this band. I'm instantly in love and addicted to their music. What about you? Was it someone recommended to you? Put your thoughts here.

[@UncleYoshi]

I discovered Band-Maid on KZbin around 2017 or 2018 when it suggested Thrill music video. Then went down the rabbit hole 🕳 of many excellent Band-Maid songs 🎵 many have similar experience like me with the Thrill video

[@foong171183]

@@UncleYoshiAwesome! Believe or Not. My first song wasn't Thrill but Dice then Real Existence and Thrill was the last. So, backward right. The funny thing is...at first, I saw their looks from the thumbnail, I thought they were a group similar to K-pop until I listened to the Dice. Like you, I just went down to the pigeon hole and never turn back till now.

[@UncleYoshi]

@foong171183 ahh ok, it was Dice 4 u. And I stand corrected...it's pigeon hole 🕳 not rabbit hole. 😅

44:05 I just notice that Saiki-san seem to be a little bit unstable motion that may be a temporary lack of oxygen ? she goes incredibly hard on this song ! 45:05 I`m ok, no worry 👍! I guess😁

[@UncleYoshi]

Don't worry. Sai chan is well prepared!

[@foong171183]

Finally, I finished watch this. Gosh, its takes me 1 day to finish this. Thats why I keep commenting few times. I wonder who got Saiki's pick at the end. That was the first time she tossed a pick. Also, Uncle Yoshi what phone are you using? Its very clear even though you were at the very far end.

[@UncleYoshi]

I bought the Samsung Galaxy 23 Ultra 512 GB b.c I knew this is the best phone to record shows. The camera can shoot in 200 mega pixels resolution. Someone got lucky getting a pick from Saiki 🥰 Thanks for watching the entire concert. Multiple comments are always welcome 👍🏻

@@UncleYoshi No prob, Uncle Yoshi. I'm glad that you recorded it and uploaded onto the YT. Otherwise, I don't know where to find the entire concert. Thanks again, Joe - Malaysia.

What's your most favorite moment and song during the show? Maybe you can react about your feelings and excitement at that show. Looking forward to your YT contents.

この前のゼップ横浜の時にも思ったんだが、バスドラの響きを少し制御して、音の粒をクリアにした方がいいよね。 横浜の時はスネアの音も死んでいて、正直、音響にはウンザリした。

ギターのミックスレベルをもっと上げないと、サウンドの派手さでバイツに負けるよ。もったいない。

[@タチツテト-d8b]

好みの問題じゃない? そもそも音楽に勝ち負けある? バンメ好きの僕からしたら他のバンドのサウンドは単調に思えて、物足りなく感じるし。個人差有り過ぎて評価出来ないと思う。

[@tamotsuish]

同感ですミサがベースリードしてるし　サイチャンのうしろでカナミンチョは自由に演奏するときがあります 音量あげすぎるとヴォ－カルたいへんでしょ?(小夜なき鳥のバックでミンチョは結構責めてますが（笑） ギタ－をしっかり聞きたかったらｲﾝｽﾄの曲で堪能シテください! メイドの皆はテクニックをひけらかすより、会場をいかに盛り上げ楽しめるかに焦点をあててそれはそれは楽しいライブてです。 ドラマ－どうし仲良しですからお互いのすきなようにやれば良いと思います・・・・・ バイツも良いバンドですし違いがある方が楽しいかも　　お気持ちは察しますが・・・・・すきなればこそ・・

昔バンドやってたオッサンですが、最近BAND-MAIDばかり聞いてます（笑）。ドラマーだったのですが、このドラマーはスゴイですね。ツーバスじゃなくツインペダルをなのがまた良い（笑）いろいろ批判する人もいるみたいですけど、これは完全にもう死んだはずのROCKに間違いない！（笑）
