BAND-MAID - Daydreaming Reaction

This is my reaction to Daydreaming. Enjoy! :)

Yes, they have toured the US. I got to see them twice in 2022, Phoenix and Dallas, and twice in 2023, Nashville and Denver, and would not hesitate to see them again!

Someone hand me a box of tissues. This song gets me all teary eyed every time I hear it.

Kanami can keep her mouth completely closed, yet sing to you with her guitar. I also believe that MISA and Akane are the most intuitively brilliant "rhythm section" in rock and roll.

The video was filmed in Taiwan in 2016 , the song that put BAND-MAID on the map was Thrill from 2014 , I saw them Twice once in 2022 in Seattle and once in 2023 in Spokane , both Amazing shows .

The only thing BAND-MAID's songs are alike is the love the band puts into performing them. BAND-MAID is one of a kind, like no other. ¡¡¡¡¡ BANDMAIDHEAD !!!!!

[@BillHallisey]

I started really liking Band-Maid when I first heard "Domination". I fell in love with them when I heard "Daydreaming" for the first time. I then realized that they were more than just a hard rock band.

Thrill went viral and saved them from being disbanded. They have toured extensively in the US the last two years but are overdue for a European tour.

I think there are 2 songs that are super important in their history you should do next. Thrill is their first music video. It went viral and that’s how most people discovered them a decade ago. It turns out it saved the band as well as it going viral convinced the label to continue to support the band. Alone is the other song, it was the first one fully composed by the ladies and accepted by the label. After which they took over full control of their song writing for albums and have only gotten better. Do the music videos for both. They’ve toured the US a few times. I saw them in 2022 and 2023 in California. I expect we’ll have to wait a little bit for them to come back, but I’ll be there.

Yes they tour in the US , most recently in 2022 and twice in 2023

[@waynebenedict5785]

"Thrill" was the first song that went viral and saved them. "Alone" was the first song accepted by their label and allowed onto a album written and composed by Band-Maid. For me, "Thrill" was first, then "Dice" and next was "Choose Me".

Sorry to say that they just finished touring the US at the end of last year- starting in 2022, approximately 30 shows and festivals in all. The rest of the world is now waiting. Glad you love the ladies- they are something special. I just celebrated 60 years of going to live shows- Rolling Stones April 1964, so have seen just about all there is in rock music, but nothing prepared me for Band-Maid.

Daydreaming, Bestie, About Us, Anemone, Endless Story, Memorable, PAGE, Wonderland, Awkward, Start Over, Mirage, At the Drop of a Hat and Smile -- an unbelievable range of mid-tempo songs from the greatest hard rock band on the planet - Band-Maid. "Daydreaming," "YOLO," "Puzzle,” and a host of others are world-class masterpieces. Although I love Daydreaming just the way it is and believe it may be Band-Maid's best composed and overall accessible song, I've always wondered if it was sung in English, how deep in the international market Daydreaming would have traveled...? Oh well, I'll stop daydreaming now. Maybe we'll see if Bestie can cut through to new markets. Thx SloMo, for another great Band-Maid reaction!

[@dazedandconfused318]

Thrill is the song that got peoples attention, it blew up on facebook and saved them from being dropped by their management/label

[@MusicMike747]

“Thrill.” The song that saved our Maids. And heck yeah they play in the US. I was lucky enough to see them about one year ago this month. Drove an 18 hour round trip and it was worth every bit of it. Can’t wait to see them again!

[@K.H.D710]

Their very first overseas live performance was at Sakura Con in Seattle, WA in 2016. Since then, they've been to the US 6 times if I'm not mistaken. They toured the US twice last year, btw.

[@bocatampere]

This song takes you into the places 🔥❤️ Great great song. Kanami is just something else 💥 That solo is so beautiful ❤️ Lovin’ Band-Maid.

[@polskabob359]

Yes,They play Here.I've seen them twice already in chicago

[@ScottT248]

To see where it all started, react to 'Thrill' the music video. They did come to the U.S. and just was at Lollapalooza in 2023. Do not know when they will come again, but I am sure they will at some point.

[@garyvincent5619]

Arguably, the two most important songs in Band-Maid history are 'Thrill' and 'Alone'. Their label was close to pulling the plug on them before Thrill went viral overseas (especially the US) and pretty much saved them. Alone is the first song composed solely by them that was accepted by the label. Kanami had been submitting compositions for a couple years, but they were all rejected. After Alone, almost all their songs have been composed exclusively by them. Re: Touring, they toured the US in 2022 and 2023. I would give it at least a 50/50 chance they will be back to the US this year. They may want to catch up w/fans in Europe or another part of the world. If they don't come back to the US in 2024, I think it's almost 100% they would be back in 2025.

[@polskabob359]

THRILLを初めて聴いた４年前から海外の人達が曲を聴き態度が変わるのが楽しくて毎日BAND−MAIDの曲を聴いています。彼女達のドキュメンタリーを観てからは、すっかり🕊️の穴に落ちてしまいました。
