Yokohama concert reg. DVD and Blu-rays are still available at CD Japan, Band-Maid Shop, Pony Canyon, and Amazon Japan. Band-Maid Shop and Pony Canyon still have the limited edition Blu-Ray which has a photo book and a documentary of the concert.

Amp I truly missed your band maid reactions. In my qualified opinion you’re one of the best reactors to band maid. Definitely in top 5. And I listened and watched dozens of reactors. Your analysis is always highly professional. Hopefully, you’re back.

[@AMetalheadsPerspective]

I appreciate you!

The fact is that, the venue (Yokohama Arena) has max capacity of 17k, and the show was NOT sold out. From within the venue, as I was there, it felt like 60% to 70% full, as there were empty seats at the upper deck floors. There are standard DVDs and limited Blu-rays currently in stores for the show.

[@AMetalheadsPerspective]

Thank you for the info!

[@K.H.D710]

According to the venue's information, the stage was set up to accommodate 12K people (with the center stage and the walkway), and the official announcement of tickets sold for the show was 8000. So your guess about 70% of the full capacity is correct.

Miku reminds me of Malcolm Young. Not that they sound alike, but they both play back up guitar with "simple" riffs, done with a craze precision that give a foundation to the grove. It's just that Miku sings while doing it.

[@joeking6763]

Stanley Clark - Getty Lee - Jaco Pastorius - Tal Wilkenfeld - Juna Serita - Timothy B. Schmit - MISA - Paul McCartney - John Entwhistle - There are many great bass guitarists! What makes MISA stand out is that she plays as a lead and not a rythm bass guitarist. BAND MAID is produced to enhance MISA to the forefront and each member of the band gets a share. That is how MIKU wants it. Kind of an all for one and one for all attitude. The talent that MISA has (she plays many instruments) shows when it's her "turn" in any given song. KANAMI and AKANE are also given a "turn" . MIKU is getting more space with the guitar but she splits her time with shared vocals with SAIKI. I say turns but it's all written into the song that they share all parts so there doesn't seem to be a given division of the time allotment for any given song. Here is a portion of an interview that sums up what I am trying to say. I really admire MIKU for this concept of her band. Japanese Interviewer: Since all five girls are cute, each of them has a different character. Those who want to see idols perform can also enjoy (each character individually). MIKU: NO!! Not just for one of them, all of them together! Japanese Interviewer: Kuruppo, you are a pretty good tactician. Clever! You thought of it. You really formed the band you wanted, right? MIKU: It's a Miracle! SAIKI: That's right! This was Part 2 of the TV interview - kzbin.info/www/bejne/j6u6doeKqpJnn6c

I agree with you! Everybody in rock and roll needs to view this live version of "Hate?" if they want to understand how to get an audience going. It's almost the perfect rock and roll song!!!!!

[@bocatampere]

Great reaction. Thank you. Totally agree everything you said. IMO..they are The Perfection of Rock Music. They have it all..Passion Work Heart Talent. Lovin’ Band-Maid 🔥❤️🤘🇫🇮

[@stevenclark7600]

Great reaction again,,They just get better and better dont they,,Saiki is sounding the best she ever has,she is a little older now and so experienced,and has melded into the powerhouse front woman we have today,,,,,i am a bass player,and yes Misa is the best imo.

[@Grum-monkey]

MISA is the second lead guitarist in the band. I wonder how long before Miku moves to be the third - she's getting close.

[@garykeeling2275]

I've heard that all five members of LOVEBITES were there. The cameras caught Asami, Midori and Haruna, who arrived first, but Fami and Miyako arrived later.

[@AMetalheadsPerspective]

That would be amazing if they were all there!

[@HaroMatsuRestarted]

I think there were only 3 members from LOVEBITES, as there is photo with only 3 members during the show and an after show photo in front of Yokohama arena with the same 3 members.

[@kent-oveprestberg3578]

All 5 members of LOVEBITES was there. I have a photoshot of it. ​@@HaroMatsuRestarted

[@BillHallisey]

Don't mind the interruptions, JUST CRANK IT UP!!!!!

[@waynebenedict5785]

This is brilliant! The song is great, but the MISA/Mincho back and forth is from another planet! I hope you got a chance to see/hear the Spin-off concert, if not, there is a bass/drum section that will send you into orbit! No limp gymnastics from these ladies!

[@jeffersoncosgrove1910]

Good to see you back. 😁👍

[@polskabob359]

Yes, their selling the blu-ray.I just got mine like last week 114$

[@BillHallisey]

How many bass/guitar "conversation/duels" have you ever seen in rock and roll?!!!!!

[@BillHallisey]

By the way, this is the best "F***k Off!" song I have eve heard. The lyrics (by Saiki) are brutal but funny!

[@chakouyang2545]

Happy seeing you back brother

[@npmushead6543]

I also wanted you to mention MIKU's sound from 17:27. Her sound adds a lot of depth to the song. I felt.

[@AMetalheadsPerspective]

100000000%

[@kakqu]

Great to see BACK!!!! I've been watching and enjoying your BAND-MAID journey from the beginning!🕊🍌🍻☕⚾

[@HaroMatsuRestarted]

New MV “Bestie”, a collaboration song with Mike Einziger from INCUBUS, will be released tomorrow (Midnight of May 1st).

[@AMetalheadsPerspective]

I was going to do that song for this video but I found out a MV was coming out.

[@grahamreed8774]

It is possible that the show was sold out, but not to the venues full capacity, because of the area taken up by the cat walk and centre stage.

[@AMetalheadsPerspective]

It doesn't really matter at the end of the day. I was more getting at the fact it was their biggest show and was happy for them

[@tooeaseebourne6338]

Nice to see ya back, good stuff,,,

[@bandmaidfanATL]

Glad you're back. Miku is the star of this for me. The battle reminds me of Wipeout by the Surfaris.

[@wallyrcarp]

Nice to see you again! 🍺
