「Happy birthday」

The day after LESSTHAN*RIOT was 9mm’s birthday.

The members had completely forgotten about it and we were surprised by all the speakers suddenly congratulating us during the wrap-up party. Really, thank you very much. Going so far as to having it written on such a lovely birthday cake, the four of us are really happy. We turned 5, by the way. If we were a dog, we’d be a proper adult at this point. It’d be around the time for us to receive a wife. But for a band, what’s the alternative to a wife? A musical instrument?

To get back on topic, I want this band to go on for another 5, 10, 20 years… even if my family, the staff around me, the fans of course, and finally if even the passers-by tell me to “please stop already“. I’ll at first pretend that I’m giving up, but then I’ll optimize the band’s configuration by getting another 3 people who are type B like me, withdraw my statement about giving up, and keep going with it for as long as I still possibly can. (By the way, the type B amongst us are Takuro, Taki and Kazuhiko. Well, even though I wrote all that, I’m actually not good at talking about different blood types and the variations in personality that come with them. Like, for example, how should you even judge the character of a type B person whose parents are A and B? Is it fine to call that person a pure type B? That, or like how in the previous staff blog, the fact that they wrote “Moo Hun” instead of “Mon Hun“. I’m interested in that kinda stuff, but those things are not the point. For now, please just replace the words “band” and “blood type” with the word “hairdo” and re-read what I just wrote).

Tomorrow is the preview screening event of the DVD! I’ve no idea what I should do there, so I think I’ll check YouTube for videos of people’s speeches at various plays and stuff. It’s going on sale very soon, which coincidentally means our Free Live is also approaching. Looking forward to it. Later.
