Not many singers on this planet could pull this off. Solo on the extended stage, totally exposed and owning it! Just smashing it. Saiki soaring on this banger.
I don't know how many Brits might have been there...But I know it was at least one.... ME!!. 🤘🤪🤘...Flew out in Nov from Scotland to be at this concert...I also flew out in Jan to see them at Tokyo Garden Theater...Both concerts available on DVD/BR (This one out in late March),..Long May They Reign!👑🥰
Misa says she likes to play without shoes so she can feel the kick drum directly into her body so she can play dead on the beat with Akan. Makes sense , as by the time the kick goes thru the production chain , could be some micro delay. Misa cares about the beat and accuracy, She is always ON it !
Glad you liked this one. Band Maid is absolutely one of the very few artists who consistently outperform their studio tracks. They make the audience part of the show. And the Maids are also a rare musical talent when it comes to songwriting. The test? Ask yourself to name your top ten songs from your favorite bands. Can you quickly name that many? Ask Band Maid fans. Not only will they struggle to limit their favorite songs to only ten, but you’ll probably find no two lists match. For their concert tours, they never play the same sets twice. They have so many hits that they have an abundance of songs to rotate in and out of the sets. You liked “Don’t you tell ME?” You’ll love “Moratorium,” “DICE,” and “Puzzle” 🤘🏽 PS Misa has stated in interviews that she simply “is uncomfortable” with shoes. She’ll wear slip ons for hot or grassy conditions
MISA the Barefoot Assassin plays a five string bass ! I love its gritty tone and the extra string helps her win most of these duels ! All of Band-Maids Official Live Videos sound great and the production is next level as well ! It just blows me away how good their live videos are and the band is pretty good too =) Please check out " Play " Official Live of course .
"You don't see that very often" is a perfect testment to the greatness of Band Maid. They write songs that are catchy... Songs that leave you no option but to enjoy and bang with it. They also are the best in any live setting. They execute and play like their lives depend on it. Every member is a phenom and they just play well and blend well together. They captivate and interact with the crowd and of course just to make it even better... they are charming as hell too.
Great reaction! One can't go wrong with any of their over 120 original songs, however this band excels in live concerts as you saw. They are able to bond with their audience in a special way that will fill their performances with high energy which is transferred back to the crowd which fires them up even more. Each of these Band-Maid ladies of rock are spectacular in their own right and are elite, top tier musicians who play seamlessly together to produce awesome songs of absolute brilliance. Enjoy exploring the incredible music of this wonderful group of artists called Band-Maid!
The audience participation you mentioned at 2:40; rather than being a Japanese thing, it is a Band-Maid audience thing. We also do it in the US. Saiki urges them on and gives a thumb up of approval. The guys you mentioned at 5:40; they just happened to get caught in the spotlight shining past Saiki.
If she wore shoes...she wouldn't be the Barefoot Assassin. Have you heard MISA speak? She actually sounds like Mr T...when she tells the engineers"I don't need no click-track fool" 👊😁🤘🤘🤘
Band Maid is another all female band proving Japan is from a different planet. Believe me, there are many! 😎 Thank you for your thoughts and views and I always prefer it when the channel pauses during the MV. Thanks again for repeating to support Band Maid by going to their channel, to watch the uninterrupted video.
Misa has said that she plays barefoot as she can feel the band through the stage, she was the only one that didn't wear in ear monitors for a while although I think she does now. She comes a cropper at festivals in the summer when it's hot and will then put on very minimal slipons as the stage can be very hot.
IIRC they mentioned somewhere that unlike the others she has pass-through holes in her IEMs. Makes me a little worried about hearing loss for her, depending on how large they are.
That was a fun reaction. Thanks guys. I'm still a relatively new fan of Band Maid as well but I think you should consider Hate? from the same show next. After that the official live versions of Puzzle, Manners/Black Hole, Play, No God, Freedom, Domination, Choose Me and Moratorium. Or in other words, you won't go wrong no matter which song you listen to, These ladies have reignited my love of hard rock.
BAND MAID "flexes" almost every time, in a different way every time. MISA (the bassist) is in no way under rated! She demands the spotlight when it's her turn. BAND MAID loves to share the spotlight with everyone - including the fans!
Don't You Tell Me! Oh, wait! You just did.🤘😂 As the Maids said at this huge, 17,000 seat Yokohama concert, it's "Chapter Two" for Band-Maid. What does that mean -- a new direction in music on their upcoming summer album... new battle gear... different stage show or venues... more collabs (The Warning, Lovebites, individual musician appearances? ** Just announced: Incubus and Band-Maid at Tokyo Garden May 1)... member and band projects like scoring movies, aniMaids, soloing projects like Cluppo... someone getting married or 👶🐣?? Pretty exciting stuff! Thx, Lee Jaay & Stan! [RECENTLY COMPLETED] BAND-MAID 10TH ANNIVERSARY TOUR SPIN OFF -- SOLD OUT!! Extra show of selected songs that were not performed at the 10th anniversary tour final at Yokohama Arena. VENUE：KT ZEPP YOKOHAMA DATE: February 22, 2024
It's a trope that bassists are guitarists who can't make it, but I think a good bassist hears music differently; from the bottom up rather than the top down. In MISA's case she started on guitar and her high school sensei/upperclassman/mentor asked her to join his band on bass. She borrowed one, liked it, bought her own and played in Prototype for five years before joining Band-Maid. She still plays guitar and keyboards, and you know she loves bass. You mentioned Lovebites and they were there, on the walkway rail about halfway down stage left.
You need to do hate from the same concert. Now just checking you have done NEMOPHILA haven't you? If not you better do AMA-TE-RAS. Also Korean band Rolling Quartz are a great rock band as well.
Some Japanese bands, old and new. Take your pick: BAND-MAID [All their songs... really!], LOVEBITES [Break the Wall, Raise some Hell, and all the other songs], BABYMETAL [All their songs, because they are all different], MAXIMUM THE HORMONE [Yoshu Fukushu], DEXCORE [Earthworm], CROSSFAITH [Catastrophe], SiM [Killing Me], NINGEN ISU [Heartless Scat], ADO [Unravel (LIVE)], UNLUCKY MORPHEUS [Black Pentagram], YOUSEI TEIKOKU [Astral Dogma, Patriot Anthem (Live)] and their other band: DenKare [Detonator], COLDRAIN [Die Tomorrow], CRYSTAL LAKE [The Circle], GIVEN BY THE FLAMES [Ronove], LONESOME_BLUE [Face the Fear], ANGRY FROG REBIRTH [2Step Syndrome], SILENTLY SHOOTING TRAITORS [Manipulate], ALDIOUS [Dominator], EAST OF EDEN [Evolve], TRiDENT [Ambivalent, Spoopy], KOKESHI [Fetal Sea], BRIDEAR [Light in the Dark, Ignite], CINQ ELEMENT [Destiny], MARY'S BLOOD [Marionette], GRAUPEL [Bereavement], DOLL$BOXX [Take my Chance], SOKONINARU [Tenohira De Odoru], HELLO SLEEPWALKERS [Flying Saucer], TELECiDE [Tied up Memories], NEKO [Ghost on a Record], MARDELAS [G-Metal], FEAR AND LOATHING IN LAS VEGAS [Tear Down], MERGINGMOON [Greyen], ROTTENGRAFFTY [Hallelujah], JILUKA [Mephisto, Overkill, Venom, Lluvia], BROKEN BY THE SCREAM [Emotion Cross-Counter], FATE GEAR [Unbreakable Wings], LYNCH [Devil], GACHARIC SPIN [Mindset], DIR EN GREY [Ningen wo Kaburu], X JAPAN [Kurenai], DAZZLE VISION [Second], DEVILOOF [Torture] _(Deathcore Band),_ JUPITER [My Enemy], SEIKIMA-II [Fire After Fire], NOKUTO [Life of Desire], GALNERYUS [Angel of Salvation], SAISEIGA [Ride On], BLOOD STAIN CHILD [Del-Sol], NEMOPHILA [Rise, Hypnosis], DADAROMA [Lucid Dream], PaleNeØ [aLiVE], Takayoshi Ohmura [THE CATACLYSM], HANABIE [We Love Sweets, Be the GAL], ZEILE [Deathside], A CROWD OF REBELLION [Re:Create of the Re:d], PALEDUSK [Area PD], POLKADOT STINGRAY [any song], MUTANT MONSTERS [Abnormal], BLACKLAB [Insanity], ASTERISM [Fiction, Rising Moon, Unravel, or Church], NOISEMAKER [Hunter or Prey], BiSH [The Night When Stars Twinkle], SCANDAL [A.M.D.K.J.], DEEP GIRL [I kill], Mrs. GREEN APPLE [Inferno], BRATS [Doudatte Yokatta], THE ORAL CIGARETTES [Frenzy Hey Kids!!], GIRUGAMESH [Drain], LiLiHoLi [From Darkness to Light], THE DEVIL’S KILLING MERRY-GO-ROUND [Diabolos], OTOBOKE BEAVER [Don't Light My Fire, Love is Short], and many many more...
The sound engineers didn't capture the audience singing back in the chorus. There's actually better versions of this from their other recorded concerts. I suggest Hate from this show as it's the best video from this live show they've uploaded.
Watch HATE? from this show. The band becomes a whole different animal. Band Maid will always surprise you.
Want to see them really flex, react to Hate asap. Stunning.
I suggest these Band Maid songs: Thrill, Dice, Manners, Bubble, Blooming, No God (live), Puzzle (live) & Hate? (live)
Not many singers on this planet could pull this off. Solo on the extended stage, totally exposed and owning it! Just smashing it. Saiki soaring on this banger.

I swear it seems like the farther north one goes in the British Isles, the more Band-Maid fans one finds 😊
Thats amazing!
That makes two of us then. Mind you there were six rounds of Overseas Lottery so I reckon a fair few

kanami my six string samurai🔥🔥🔥🔥🤘🤘🤘🤗🤗🤗🤗
The bass is an integral part of the BAND-MAID "sound". Never underestimate what BAND-MAID is capable of producing. Peace. 12.9
And we know BAND-MAID are what the word "AWESOME" was invented for :)
@@GaryHolloway-810 Of course! AWESOME is as AWESOME does. 😎 BAND-MAID are AWESOME!!!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
@@GaryHolloway-810 Yeah, before BAND-MAID there was no proper use of the word AWESOME.
if you think this live performance was intense, wait till you check out 'hate?' which is from the same concert.
I think this is the best of Saiki, ever, power up a couple of notches, tons of confidence….

Nice Reaction..Keep it Coming Over 120 Songs Plus ALL BANGERS ...INCREDIBLE GROUP
It's a Rock thing and has been from the beginning, These chicks are pure rockers and it's fantastic to see.
The whole song is epic but Akane's work on the drums to drive the beat is God tier. She's the best drummer in the world, imho.

If you want to see another duo Kanami(lead guitar) and Misa (bass) check "Hate?" from the same concert. Amazing performance!

@@stevehall5128 Ah yes, I recall that too
Highly excellent reaction gents once again. Hang on to your hat this is leading into HATE which levels up.

Misa doesn't wear shoes because she feels Akane bass better through the floor.
The sound engineers didn't capture the audience singing back in the chorus. There's actually better versions of this from their other recorded concerts. I suggest Hate from this show as it's the best video from this live show they've uploaded.
You sound like people who have never been to a concert and haven't really listened to much music in general. You'll get there. 😂
