It's painful to hear Saiki talk in this interview, her surgery did wonders. I hope they can resume touring in 2021, definitely want to see these ladies live.

[@keimahane]

I was thinking the same thing. She must have been in so much pain during those live performances before it. Listening to her today is a completely different Saiki.

[@charlescoleman9278]

I saw these amazing Girls in Los Angeles and they even exceeded my expectations! Yeah, they're very cute especially with the Maid's outfits, but make no mistake, their music is legit! Easily the best band I have seen in decades! Go see them if you get the chance!

"Thrill" is stronger than most Western rock tunes. We need more heavy metal tunes like "Thrill" and even more USA fans will follow.

BAND-MAIDのサウンドとビジュアルで本当に世界中を虜にして、世界征服を果たしてください✨ 　絶対できると思います 一番に音のバランスとメロディーラインが聞きやすくて、それでいてベースとギターとドラムの各所でのアクセントの有る演奏がたまらなくて 　ダブルボーカルもとても良いですね 　ドスの利いたメインボーカルにサイドボーカルの小鳩さんの声のギャップがこれ程合うとは 　コーラスもハーモニーを作っていて、今までに無いバンドのの上にみんな綺麗で可愛いときては、聞かない理由が見つかりません とにかく音楽はジャンルを越えて最高です

Hard to listen to Saiki prior to her vocal surgery. But man does she sound utterly amazing today. Incredibly talented rock singer.

[@Lpmgato1]

As a 70 year old Texas cowboy, I only recently discovered Band Maid. They're a GREAT band, creative, exceptionally talented. They're also charismatic, charming, outgoing, personable. They seem to truly care about each other, not only musically, but as friends. I admire their character, sincerity, humility, as much as their amazing musical capability. They're one of the truly super bands performing in the world, today. I would pay most anything to watch them perform in live concert. Thanks so much for this and other videos. Blessings and peace from rural North Texas.

[@DS-xk6yr]

Something I like about them that they push/carry at least some of their gear from the van 00:30 into the venue themselves. Look at Saiki pushing that big cart with no complaint! It probably weighs more than she does. That's cool. It shows commitment and a lack of rock star snobbery. I really respect that.

[@Buzzramjet]

You do know they have a road crew now. That was three years ago. I remember watching their very early show where they were moving their own equipment on stage I think in France. Not sure and maybe a hundred people there. NOW big shows with full road crew.

[@dwoodwoo65]

In the London comic con video posted, you can see almost 10 minutes of them setting up their own stage. And that was only in 2016. I love that’s they are working class committed to rock.

[@thissailorja]

To be honest, i have had suitcases that weigh more then she does. She might be 40k soaking wet with boots on. Just saying that she and rest of the ladies are pretty tiny. Misa is what 5'7 and about 50k or so? She is the tallest. Miku is just over 5 feet tall. This is why Misa doesnt wear shoes, or one of the reasons anyway.

[@jalsol]

@@thissailorja I heard that Misa likes playing barefooted is because she likes to feel the ground shaken

[@fernandonovo6149]

It's amazing what Miku Kobato did....she had a concept for a band...when to her music management team and convinced them that her idea was good,,,,,having won them over she recruited Kanami through the Internet and from there each other member were recruited through personal connections....starting as a 4 person band the group realized that Miku's voice was not ideal for the music they wanted to play...so Miku he's back to her management and they suggest a young singer Saiki.....Miku's intelligence tells her to not tell Saiki about the Maid outfits and gets Saiki to agree to join the band.....and at their last practice before a show reveals the maid outfit....lol.......what an amazing driving force for this band

They are such brilliant musicians and yet completely humble...

[@paulcrist7285]

I Think it is part of Japanese culture to not just do something,do something and be excellent at it.And if you see interviews,like when they go to Miku's home town,when they are just standing there and answering questions there is in no way that the parents of each of these musicians would be very proud of.And that's another story to hear,...one day.

[@CMike-te1xs]

Saiki had the same throat surgery that Aimi of Stereopony had. Glad Saiki recovered; sadly Aimi didn't heal that quickly and that was the end of Stereopony. Haruna Ono had similar vocal problems early in her career, but made a full recovery when she changed vocal coaches.

This isn't rocket science. Band-Maid is a genuine hard rock band that writes, produces, arranges and performs their own music. You take a drummer who ranks with the best ever, a bass player who is probably the very best bassist working today. A lead guitarist who is better than good and two vocalists who can really sing and this is what you get. The best hard rock band on the planet today. They need exposure on American TV and a summer festival tour across the states. And they will be legend. Sacramento loves Band-Maid.

[@mikeat2637]

I'm an American in my 70's and i have been following rock and roll since the late 1950's and I played in some bands when I was a lot younger, played bass and keyboards. When I first heard Band-Maid I had been involved in Asian music for about two years or so, after learning about Wagakki Band, BabyMetal, SCANDAL, Aldious and several other groups. When I first heard Thrill, I was so impressed that I dived right into Band-Maid. I have to say the band, as well as other Japanese groups, have restored my faith in true rock and roll, which is dead in the US, sadly. Watching those young ladies has impressed me so much. Miku has done a fantastic job in putting things together and enlisting the best. Akane, Misa and Kanami are, in my opinion, three of the finest in the world in their particular instruments, and Miku has done a fantastic job of learning to play a great ryhtmn guitar and in Saiki you have a true rock lead vocalist. She has the grit and the charisma that puts her right up there with Yuko Suzuhana of Wagakki Band and Suzuka Nakamoto of Baby Metal in terms of stage presence and crowd control. But the best thing about Band-Maid is the the ladies always look like they are having fun up there, which is something you don't see every day. All they have to do is keep doing what they are doing, they are a hit machine. One thing I just remembered, about 30 years ago I had the opportunity to see The 5,6,7,8's play here and I was very impressed, because by that time female rock bands had really died out here in the US. So I did have a little experience with Japanese rock. One last thing, I think Band-Maiko is a wonderful adjunct to the main group and their songs regarding the geisha culture are inventive and great music. Just keep it coming.

Thank God. I love her voice!

[@saldiven2009]

Yeah, according to her twitter back then, she left a practice with her through feeling odd and went to a doctor. They did an examination and found polyps on her vocal chords. They apparently did a laser treatment, and she was able to perform at an upcoming gig she had about a month or so later. One of the noticeable symptoms of vocal chord polyps is having a hoarse sounding voice because the chords cannot close correctly. You can tell in this video that her voice sounds a bit hoarse when she speaks.
