The recording continues!!
Here’s something to give you an idea of what it looks like:
Those of you who read Taki’s column in Guitar Magazine will probably already know this… But Taki-kun is currently hooked on shochu. Thus, in the recording studio he likes to put a black tea bag in a 9mm Iichiko and make “9mm black tea Iichiko”.
He doesn’t drink during recording, so he’ll always start sampling it at the end of the day’s work. Keeping the sweetness in balance with honey and granulated sugar, the next batch is currently in production!! It’s great how he’s able to make it so easily with ingredients that are readily available at the studio.
Also, things like these are piling up at the studio with each passing day. (laughs)
The recordings are proceeding favorably!
Please look forward to it!!

「Recording days」
HERE came to hang out with us in studio today! ☆ They brought us a sample of their first album “Shinu Kurai Daisuki Aishiteru Baka Mitai” that’s released on 3/6.
And they brought us snacks, too!! These apparently enjoyed great popularity during HERE’s own recording, too… Sylveine and Elise!! Also… Bikkuriman! ヽ(￣▽￣)ﾉ

Thank you.
There’s no doubt that today is going to be another good day of recordings!!

Secret exchange with the telephones!
As it just so happened, the telephones were using the same studio starting from the same day as us! That’s reassuring!!!
Seeing as both bands are close friends with each other, they couldn’t leave their meeting simply at just providing each other with moral support. (laughs) They did something together!
First…
At 9mm Parabellum Bullet’s room. ☆
Then…
At the telephones’ room. ☆
As to just what it is they did together, it’s still a secret. ( ´ ▽ ` )ﾉ
Look forward to each band’s releases!!

Today is the third day of recording!!
There was heavy snow in Tokyo on the 14th.
9mm started recording on that day.
As expected of the 9th anniversary year… we’re off to a good start. (laughs)

We’re making good progress with each passing day.

As they were checking the recordings, they were doing their usual air drumming thing which you’ve seen in the DVD off-shots! They’re still going at it as much as ever.
They’ve started today’s recordings as well!

※ He won’t be using it in the actual recording. (laughs)
Be excited for it, everyone. ☆

「School campus festival tour, school two」
■ 10/28 @ Konan Women’s University
「Umi ga Mieru Oka Matsuri ～Pop to Maam no Koi Monogatari～」
The second show was at a women’s college!! We thought the venue would be just this mass of girls… (laughs) but there was a large number of men in the audience, too, working as staff. The tickets were all designated but it ended up as such a hot show! Kanpai!!
And again with THE BAWDIES.
And of course the way back in the car felt like another field trip all the way home.

The next one’s on 11/1 @ Chuo University!
The goods can be purchased without a ticket so even those of you who don’t have one, do come around.

「School campus festival tour, school one」
Featuring THE BAWDIES and 9mm Parabellum Bullet, this two-band school campus festival tour spanning five locations began on October 27th!!
■ 10/27 @ Nagoya University of Commerce & Business
「Sagamine Matsuri ～ Utae! Jigoku no Kazoe Uta!!」
The opening day of the tour!!
The collaboration goods got a good reception.
The show was wild, too.
Good job on the first day, everyone! Kanpai!!
With THE BAWDIES.
There was a great atmosphere both in the dressing room as well as on stage, and both bands had fun from beginning to end! Everyone set their seats facing each other during the trip to Kobe… it was like a field trip. (laughs) And everyone with a beer in hand of course.
The cameraman for this commemorative picture was Rui Hashimoto!
Both the bands and Rui all looked chummy.
