[@meacenastiberius9438]

Freakin great rock and roll. These gals will live forever.

[@alanstaiji]

EMI is my favourite. Miss her

[@marcfriedlander2479]

She's great....but Etsuko was the best.

[@ShikataGaNai100]

Good luck to Emi-chan in all that she does in the future.

[@stevend6184]

OYFG Love it!!!!

[@ricksamericana749]

Risa Kawano is an amazing drummer, well done Shonen Knife.

[@stevejones8660]

This is Emi here.

[@ShikataGaNai100]

Yes, Risa is also excellent, but it is Emi playing here.

[@stevedvd272]

Great Track love it, these girls can really rock

[@PaulEngineer]

Shows in 2023 - this song still a highlight for me.

[@shoknifeman2mikado135]

By the end Emi had become the best SK drummer of all

[@capybara8868]

Bravura performance by Emi! 👏👍🏼🌹♥️

[@ericbarnett6771]

Rock and Roll in its purest form.

[@shoknifeman2mikado135]

Goodbye Emi-chan, you will be missed, you made the last 5 years the best for SK since Michie left!

[@melenciofranco0125]

shoknifeman2 mikado hie from the very start how how manny band members SK have?

[@shoknifeman2mikado135]

Originally it was 3, then 2, then 3, then 2 again, then 3 and now there's 5 members! :)

[@melenciofranco0125]

[@shoknifeman2mikado135]

melencio franco- No problem

[@ShikataGaNai100]

Who else misses Emi standing on top of her drum kit?

[@stevedvd272]

what a fantastic rocking band

[@wildwombat]

Emi toured with SK to Melbourne Australia with Ritsuko & Naoko. EMI was so energized I will always remember her power.

[@deathstar7766]

My favorite version!

[@princeeverlove]

I love Green Tea...but I LOVE EMI MORE!😍

[@shoknifeman2mikado135]

I hate green tea, but love the song

[@scottscott4674]

What a lot of fun. Really enjoy their music.

[@mdjcsmith]

1:16 drops the right-hand stick and catches it without missing a spot!

[@meacenastiberius9438]

No kidding, she did..thats a pro

[@RevYars]

She probably had spare sticks sitting ready and grabbed one, still a quick reaction

[@wildwombat]

I applaud your eyes sir/madam

[@soberman01]

Who knew there were so many cute female punk rock drummers in Japan? Naoko is probably running out of options. Emi had the best smile, and I loved it when she would climb over her kit during a drumroll. She was so petite!

[@ShikataGaNai100]

Naru on bass too...

[@c.s.4428]

I'll take a cup!

[@tubridge]

Emi sure has gone visual. I thought she was trying to scratch her back with that drumstick, it's almost a baseball swing!

[@tubridge]

***** Nope. Look again, or read it at www.shonenknife.net/news.html?id=n210 dateline 2015/5/27. Emi did not finish when the last US tour did.

[@anonymousanonymous-rl4mb]

***** Dude that's Emi, lol, on here acting like a godamn expert leaving long ass paragraphs Source: I be knowing shit.

[@shoknifeman2mikado135]

+Geo Murch Jr. Emi left because she simply got tired of the constant touring... let's face, we love Naoko, but, she is a real workaholic and Emi just couldn't take the pace. (On the Overdrive tour, she came over to the hall after eating, laid down on a bench a few feet from me and, fell instantly asleep... she slept over an hour, with other bands playing at earbleed decibels!)

[@geotechmore8855]

shoknifeman2 mikado​ Emi is an awesome drummer and person too from what I can tell :) I hope she continues to play drums even though she's not with Shonen Knife on tour. I hope she can rest up now :) Touring can be draining. I was lucky to see Emi play a few years ago here in Hoboken, New Jersey at Maxwell's with SK :) The place is no longer a punk venue and no longer booking International artists sadly. Now they only book local artists and no more punk bands. Quite sad. But at least I got to see Shonen Knife when Maxwell's WAS a punk venue :)

[@shoknifeman2mikado135]

Yes Emi was great... the last 5 years were the SK renaissance , but, all good things must end :s As for seeing SK, check for tour dates near NY city next time, they do Brooklyn on every tour, for instance.

[@theautisticavenger]

[@iloveshonenknife1]

Naru ROCKS!!!!!' Nuf said. The job is yours if you want it Naru.

[@tubridge]

iloveshonenknife1 If you meant you want to hire Naru for your own band, she might be available when permanent bassist Ritsuko gets back to work. But no matter how awesome, she was picked to be a temp at Shonen Knife. Enjoy her while you've got her.

[@capybara8868]

@@tubridge Still going strong as domestic bassist!

[@johnny-r]

I hate green tea but I LOVE Shonen Knife! In fact, I hate almost everything but I love Shonen Knife.

[@andrewpowell1734]

Who's playing bass?

[@stevejones8660]

Naru Ishizuka.. She plays bass in most Japanese shows.

[@ShikataGaNai100]

@@stevejones8660 Naru, Ritsuko, and Atsuko all play bass on the last album...and all three (and Emi) are in the video for "Sweet Candy Power."
