They are all extremely happy ,smiling each other ,making faces ...especially Kanami is like a puppy playing around ...

[@Gaius__]

Yeah, they are having genuine fun playing together. Like a bunch of kids in a garage band, just enjoying the music. It's great to see.

[@paul_laws]

Misa's runs in this are FIRE. Not as prominent as usual but she's still working her arse off in the background. Akane, of course, stole the show here 🍌🦍🥁💥 Edited to add: The transition to Kanami's solo was absolute perfection.

[@falkarios2944]

This is a very good performance of this song, the drum solo from Akane is insane.

[@Jonas_S_]

Saiki Atsumi - Born Feb 8, 1994 26 years old MISA - Born Oct 15, 1992 27 years old Miku Kobato - Born Oct 21, 1991 28 years old Kanami Tono - Born Sept 28, 1991 28 years old Akane Hirose - Born Dec 14, 1990 29 years old

[@goodsong6732]

We all know the exact age of Saiki and Miku but the other three I think you are also right.

[@David-yt6kp]

The whole band has input, but it is Kanami's music composition skills and Miku's lyrics and vocal arrangements that are the genius behind Band-Maid's sound.

[@powbobs]

David Akane and MISA write their own parts after Kanami sends them the basic songs.

[@lawrenceflower8418]

MISA is playing her new Black Cloud Private Reserve Bass. It has a very nice tone. She has just got a gloss black Fender, Rock Bass, fretless bass. Can’t wait to hear that on stage :) The ladies are in their late 20s.

[@nussekuddenxxx6564]

Wow! I guess we know what she is up to then during the isolation! Fretless is something else. You are not alone to now waiting for a live performance with that!

[@warrenlauzon5315]

25 is the youngest, 28 or 29 the oldest.

[@charlesvelten5124]

She's playing her Gibson SG 5 string (custom made I think) red bass during this song.

[@lawrenceflower8418]

Charles Velten on the Band Maid fan site there is a video of MISA playing her new red base. In the video it is referred to as the described in my comment. Is that the same thing? My knowledge of the base is limited to what I read on MISA’s vlog.

[@gringopablo]

Her new fretless bass is a 4-string, right?

[@GaryHolloway-810]

Hi Alex. Akane thrashed those drums into submission. That's what she calls 'Domination'. Kudos.

[@brandydynamite5877]

Once again, superb performance from the ladies. They never disappoint!

[@grumpyuncle6859]

1:31 You got it right, Alex. Saiki says "Hey Shibuya, is that all you've got?" "C'mon! You can do better than that!" "Bring it on!"

[@topographic1973ify]

Misa's new red bass really has a nice tone that is a little more punctuated and stands out a little more on this song. That drum solo is great.

[@tamatamappi]

Akane (Drummer) the eldest, 30 yo. Miku (rythim/bc.vocal) and Kanami (lead guitar) are around 28-29 yo. MISA (bassist) is 27 yo. And the youngest, Saiki (Lead vocal) is 26 yo~

[@triceyambae4579]

I can understand you want LONGER. I guess they know that. "Freedom" was 6th song of the concert. From "Rin-ne" to this "Freedom" they played 6 hard and up-tempo songs without a rest. That's their responce, may be. Miku Kobato - Rhythm guitar, Backing vocal, Lyricist, Band founder (Oct 21, 1991) Kanami Tono - Lead guitar, Composer, Main arranger, Backing vocal (Sept 28, 1991) Akane Hirose - Drums, Backing vocal (Dec 14, 1990) MISA - Bass (Oct 15, 1992) Saiki Atsumi - Lead vocal (Feb 8, 1994)

[@JDsHouseofHobbies]

I re-watched the blu ray again on my new TV today and I saw things that I originally missed. I loved the show and I SO hope I get to see them live!

[@imrekalman9044]

These girls were not born, they *descended*.

[@hiawatha.g]

Akane was shy about taking drum solos for a long time, so this is a big moment for her. And of course, she burnt the house down.

[@joki5346]

Maybe our wish for her first drum solo during a concert in Bochum last year and the tremendous applause she got after she had fulfilled our dream, encouraged her to do more solos with the conviction, that the audiences would love it...of course they love it!

[@hiawatha.g]

@@joki5346 would have loved to be there. I saw them in LA in Oct., need to see them again, it's like heroin.

[@tasminoben686]

@Weser Joki Moin Joki, logen erfüllt sie damit Träume! So wie Mikus kurze Sologesangseinlage! Wärest du so lieb mir mal die Geburtsdaten der Members zu schreiben. Einer hat sie hier geschrieben, aber die Zahlen erscheinen hier als am. Punktschrift und die Zeichen versteh ich nicht. Ich schreib dir auch nochmal auf deinen letzten Komment. LG Ben

this performance is so funny :D you need to buy the whole Blue Ray :D

[@philproffitt8363]

YES.. 7.1 surround is like being there too. If they would re-issue bluray with English subtitles (song translation + Miku's words) I will buy it again.

[@imrekalman9044]

@@philproffitt8363 Me too, although I have the DVD only.

[@warrenlauzon5315]

I have changed all my phone, tablet, and computer backgrounds and wallpaper to Band-Maid photos. Does that make be a sick person? Working on new ringtones now...

[@joki5346]

I took Akane´s drum solo from Bochum last year as my ringtone, and it works really good, people around me are wondering about something weird coming out of my jacket. kzbin.info/www/bejne/bn_UkKWbf6dnibs ...always a pleasure to watch.

[@boomstick900]

No Band Maid shower curtain? Pfft, amateur

[@derwolf9670]

the girls crushed it...as always

[@alexn4843]

Yes Miku sings. She was supposed to be the lead singer but didn't think her voice was strong enough to sing the types of songs she wanted the band to play so that's why they recruited Saiki. So she took on the roll of back up singer and learned to play rhythm guitar (Kanami being her teacher). There used to be a version of this song from their Zepp concert on YT. In it Miku sings at the same spot in beginning as this one but then towards the end Saiki goes a bit into audience to sing and gets kidnapped by that audience so Miku had to take over lead vocals to finish it up. Though that one didn't have the bad ass Akane drum solo in it, like this one.

[@Inosuke_Hashibira75]

⚡️Akane⚡️ The Goddess of Thunder⚡️ She is awesome

[@jan-ovepedersen5764]

I've been Band-Maid'd - no way back, my new favorite band for sure

[@Muzicman-ut3jr]

It’s nice that you check out and react to the music but you’re missing the most important aspect, these girls are enjoying being on stage, if you go back you’ll see MISA and Saiki making faces at Akane, Akane in return makes a funny face as well! It Kanami approaching Miku who seems out of touch for the moment before a Kanami brought her back with a look like come on girl be happy we’re gonna play Budokan next year

[@sacluvsBM]

Band-Maid will do another live stream on August 16th. Be there or be square. Sacramento loves Band-Maid.

[@nurrahmat1333]

Im 90 generation and this band is totally different, love with the way they make a noise

[@charlesvelten5124]

MIKU IS LIFE, KANAMI IS LIFE, BAND MAID IS LIFE !

[@daft4343]

Gorgeous backdrop!...again glorious Band Maid.

[@garyhardy5907]

MISA has a beautiful voice I finally seen her singing backup on stage. and Akane can sing too ! I've seen them all sing harmony together on a short clip saying America. they sound great together🎵🎶💥

[@curtisrrobles7885]

MISA!!!! MISA!!!! MISA!!!!!! Welcome back. I'm glad you finally got to this song. I know you'll love it. Akane goes off on the drums. Misa is our Dark Queen and she is the oldest in her late 20's

[@AlexNChannel]

Yes it's true it was amazing but the thing i saw it was l, how happy they are singing playing together, and that connection it's amazing

[@powbobs]

Curtis R Robles Miku is the oldest.

[@bobespirit2112]

Love your BM reactions. Funny though how you just realized how much Miku sings, and not the first time she’s sang a lead vocal part 🤣. The vocal interplay between lead singer Saiki and Miku adds a tremendous dynamic that few bands have. Adds a unique spice to BM 🤘🏼😎

[@chaoticrager1722]

This band always make love to my ears

[@gt1man931]

I love them. The tracks are always too short.

[@joki5346]

I feel the same way...and 4.33 min is too long for most songs coming out of the radio nowadays.

[@miqoto]

In the beginning of the song, Saiki is saying Shibuya!! Come get some!!(make more noise). Even if you watch the whole concert, you'll still want more😁👍

[@joki5346]

That´s the reason, why I took part in the lottery for Nippon Budokan next February. I hope and pray, that everything goes well to have more than a DVD at home.

[@user-kp4id6wx9y]

All Japanese girl bands look fun. The members are full of smiles.

[@franshendrix1404]

Just one more thing to add: KAAAANAAAMIIINNCHOO!!

[@winwinwin282828]

The transition from Akane solo to kanami's solo give me goose bump6

[@littlechap100]

Haha - the big guy fell in love. Beautiful to see. I've been binge watching Japanese rock since discovering it last week. So far I think Band Maid are the best live, Wagakki Band are the most interesting but I fell in love with Lovebites. Really appreciate your reactions. More J rock please.

[@littlechap100]

Oh, meant to ask - have you checked out Maximum the Hormone? Death metal with humour. Amazing.

[@JuanSan66]

Jewels of four minutes!, need more?, take another one!

[@brettmarlar4154]

These women do more in 3 1/2 minutes than most band do in an hour! Perfect dynamic shifts, lots of little random changes to keep things interesting. The don't get overly self-indulgent by adding sections that detract from the meat and potatoes of the song. They get in, get out, move on to the next song. I'm a huge Progressive Rock nerd, so I love long, musically exploratory songs. But there's something to be said for the concise, efficiency of Kanami's writing style, where to add more parts would actually diminish its emotional impact.

[@wanderleyjesus6772]

It is a micro prog rock. (I am also a prog rock fan)

[@franshendrix1404]

How old? Not so hard to answer: MIku = 29 Akane = 30 Saiki = 26 Kanami = 28/29 Misa = 28-30 Kanami and Misa are the hardest to guess, though I am 75% sure Kanami is 29 but she looks so much younger. The top 3 are 100% certain because we know exactly when Miku and Saiki are born and Akane can be determined by the last birthday pictures posted. I do have a suggestion, but it is not on the official channel and seemingly not one reactor reacts to non-official posted content.
