「Kushiro show→ in commute to Obihiro」
Finishing our show at Kushiro, we’re now in the middle of our commute. The rain halved in the evening. The moon is running side-by-side with our bus. Thanks to its light, the bus is a pretty yellow color.
Kushiro club green, the venue for today’s show is usually a club just like the name implies, and because of that, it seems they didn’t have the equipment a rock band would need to do a show. So, as to how we were able to play then, it was thanks to the initiative of Mr. Wataru who’s managing a studio in Kushiro. Lots of rock-loving youngsters gathered up the necessary equipment, built a stage on the stage-less floor and let us perform on said stage.
Knowing all that… if we hadn’t been able to make it into a hot show, we wouldn’t be real men!! HORMONE relentlessly whipped the audience into a frenzy tonight as well. We were watching them from the dressing room and the side of the stage. The level of humidity was gradually getting higher and higher, and by the time HORMONE got off stage and it was our turn, it’d already reached 100% ages ago. Water was trickling down the backstage walls. The guitars and drum set were colored pure white from the steam. But none of that mattered during the show: hands and feet slipping from the sweat and humidity and stuff like that happening is nothing out of the ordinary. It was a great, enthusiastic show!! Kushiro’s excitement was amazing. People weren’t just being riotous: I could tell everyone was listening carefully to the more intricate songs, too. The show ended with the venue being completely soaked. We had a great time.
I was watching the stage-builders deconstruct it afterwards, and they were really working hard. I think they enjoyed themselves just the same as the other audience members. Like the other two venues, I feel like I want to come back here. Thanks to everyone for coming. Let’s meet again! Stay healthy until then.
Now then, the bus should be arriving at Obihiro shortly. Tomorrow’s the fourth show! Looking forward to our second show at MEGA STONE. With that, later!
