MISA, in a recent interview, was asked what she would most like to do in a concert setting. She responded saying she would love to perform an acoustic concert playing an upright bass! I say, ABSOLUTELY!! That would be pure GOLD!!!
I can see it happening. Me and others have been dropping hints for years and it was suggested to them in a recent interview that they should do a concert with a full on orchestra. Written by Kanami. Akane was very interested in doing it.
In France, children don't offer anything to Santa (Père Noël here). It's probably a question of education. This concert was sublime because it was in public and the stage was magnificently set up. A deliciously dreamlike atmosphere. The most beautiful image I remember is seeing Saiki playing Daydreaming on the piano with the whole band at the end. It still brings tears to my eyes. Of all the things the Maids are capable of doing, I think it's the acoustic concerts that I prefer above all. "Mistake" Miku would have said about Bubble and not Mirage written in filigree. No problem, it was a very beautiful video of yours. Thank you and Merry X-Mas Antony.
From Japan: Details haven't been announced yet, but it seems that an acoustic concert will be held in Tokyo and Osaka next March and April. I'm waiting for the announcement.
I also send you my best wishes and all the best for Christmas. Thank you for letting us watch part of this beautiful show with you. 🙏 It was very impressive that they pulled off songs that you probably least expected as acoustic. On the other hand, they already did Different last time, which was already wild. :) It's been a while since I've seen the full show, so thanks for giving me an idea of which video I'll be playing tomorrow. 😇✌ ___________________ 「 _"完璧なんてありえない" / Perfection?

Hi Ant, Merry Christmas. I think you are mistaken, the first acoustic CD wasn't sold once. It was sold at least 3 or 4 times from their merch site that I remember - over at least a year. The second (or a later) pressing even had a slightly different cover - just the colouring of it was different if I recall right. I'm certain this new acoustic will go on sale again too.
Kanami uses Alvarez or Alvarez/Yairi. Miku switched between her Zemaitis and a Taylor for this show and I must admit I preferred the tone of the Taylor. She also used the Taylor to play Memorable in The Day Of Maid Show earlier this year.
The '24 acoustic was amazing, even better than '21 IMO. My favorite off the stream was Wonderland. I remember starting to tear up because the arrangement & performance were so f'ing brilliant.
According to Davey (comment below) they have re-released the first acoustic CD. Just that they never mail fans to say they have, so when I do go and check it's not available. Because I talked over the start of Daydreaming the curious copyright claim has gone.
There seems to be a cultural thing where art should be unique, rare, hard to get. Doesn't seem to be much interest on the part of the band to do more production runs when sold out. That aside, the really interesting part was they rearranged the songs they had already arranged for the first acoustic.
Ant, thank you for this reaction to Band-Maid's acoustic set. These young women are SO talented and professional. To be able to take their "hard rock" sound and re-arrange it for an acoustic set must be very difficult, but Band-Maid (always) pulls it off faultlessly.
I got these songs all mixed up. They are Alone, Bubble, Choose Me, Corallium, Daydreaming and the clip at the end is H-G-K.
Listening to Band-Maid on Christmas Day. It doesn’t get much better than this. 😊
Thanks so much for sharing!
Merry Xmas!

I just about remember reading that in the fan clib mail.

I stand corrected. Just seems every time I go to buy it, it's not available.
@@AntMusic_ If I remember right, the last time I saw it on sale was last Christmas (2023). So not this year. (As you know it was recorded 2021)
Wait for a generic merch drop for which they do send out emails.
@@ericifune5543 I think the band or other fans will announce a new sale on social media. That's how I've heard of the news.
@@Davey-Boyd I placed my order for the '21 acoustic okyuji on 13 March 2024. So there has been at least one rerelease.
Merry Christmas

It wasn't Bubble that you missed. You were singing along to it. That played after Alone and you had it listed as Mirage for some reason.
Merry Christmas Ant ... we leave milk and cookies. Apparently he gets the meal when visiting you and desert when he arrives here :p .

MISA!!! MISA!!! MISA!!! 🥃🥃🥃🤙🏽🎄🎄🎄

Yeah, they never announced it was back on sale. It just appeared from time to time in the fan club store.
They did for the first rerelease. After, they put it up on Prime and they no longer bother with mass emails to fan club members.
😂🎉😂❤❤❤

They always do. Genius of Kanami.
