Did you celebrate Valentine’s Day? ❤️❤️❤️
Yes ... I lovingly ate the ENTIRE dinner my wife cooked for me :p .
I went to BAND-MAID's ball. It was the best party since Al Capone had his St Valentines day masquerade.😏
@@GaryHolloway-810 Your comment is giving me vibes of B-M's Don't You Tell ME video 😀
@@artomatt Haha. Yeah B-M's ball was exactly like that but without the posh, rich diners.😂
I think she's asking " Did you buy ME anything for Valentine's Day? " 😆💌
I’ve seriously never seen a band that so obviously loves performing live more than Band-Maid.
If you're a musician or just a knowledgeable listener, and you still love a fun vibe - THIS. IS. YOUR. DREAM BAND.
True
This band plus musician-reactors on CZcams have made me a much more knowledgeable and attentive listener!
a flautist laughing and a drummer laughing would have very different outcomes. Her guitar is the "Flappy Pigeon" and has a pigeon on it.
An often overlooked part of this video is just how loud the crowd cheered after this blistering 2 songs were over! Give it to them, they earned it!
Add seen in local papers after Band-Maid concerts: “For sale; very heavily used drum kit. Played only once.”
ha!---I like it !
Very cool
Im almost 52 and have been to a lot of concerts in my life. I have only had the pleasure to see Band-Maid once in Chicago and it was the most fun concert I've ever seen. The constant smiling and obvious joy of being up there playing and the amount of interaction with not only the crowd, but with each other as well, made it a 1000% enjoyable experience and i cannot recommend seeing them live enough. And i was even toward the back of the venue right behind the sound board, i wasn’t even up close where i would have had more fun. It was also the best mixed concert I've ever heard.
Alots of people said they were the best band on stage that day
I understand that many journalists said the same, in print.
I have heard that from several sources. And their streamed show - live and on replay - got a shit ton of views! More so than many of the "big" acts to play there. People took notice of our Ladies that day!
@@ricksgamemisc10worth searching for the Rolling Stone review.
7:09 That guitar is Miku's signature Zemaitis guitar, its official name is "Flappy Pigeon". Miku helped design it and there are lots of Easter eggs in the design. Even the case it comes in is cool.
Finally someone gets "Zemaitis" right 😉
@@realdocloco Great guitars! Originally from England!
@@Davey-Boyd Yes Tony Zemaitis came to (little) fame in the early seventies, and his guitars were adopted by some famous musicians (Ron Wood and Keith Richards amongst the first ones). He died a long time ago and the brand is now owned by the japanese Greco company. Japanese luthiers are reknowned for the meticulosity of their work and Zemaitis guitars are still works of art - I own two, including Miku's "Flappy pigeon" model.
@@realdocloco And I think the Greco company have done a fine job of keeping the Zemaitis brand true to Tony's dream. Japanese workmanship is renowned in the guitar community worldwide. Zemaitis found a good home after Tony's death. I only own one.
Love how Kanami does a little princess twirl during the drum interlude between songs.
Band maid at lollapalooza set has gotten the most veiws of all bands that played there on CZcams the barefoot assassin and minchozilla duel in the sun in chicago they are the living legends known as band maid
Band-Maid where they really come to life and shine the most, or when a band manages to play the camera crew and production team dizzy. 🤭❤🔥🤘🏻

Saiki all happy and smiling as Misa and Kanami are battling it out. Knowing full well what awesome musicians she's got around her. Yeah, Saiki, good thing the maid outfits didn't put you off to the point that you didn't continue with the band! Such an unlikely and incredible story Band-Maid have. And the world is so much better off for it. Very grateful for your existence!
Can we please get 2 BAND-MAID videos a week? It's too stressful to wait for Sundays. hahaha
I ain't too proud to beg. Please Ms. NittPicc! Have pity on us poor Maidiacs. A lot of grim reactors out there.
About a minute and a half into Hate? Akane loses a drum stick and grabs another without missing a beat, you can see it in one of the camera shots from stage left. These ladies work hard, and they do it regularly in hot clubs and on hot outdoor stages. Even for video shoots, they all seem to either be cold enough to see their breath, or hot as blazes like the Influencer video where it was almost 99F. There are no divas here, just five young women living their best life. I have so much respect for their work ethic, their determination, their talent and their commitment to their audiences. What other bands write love songs to their audience, like About Us and Memorable.
No dead weight in BM. Each player is unique and BM and the Maidiacs wouldn't be the same.
This is a common tactic of Band Maid. They will take 2/3 songs for each tour season and add extra bits to increase the wow factor. What is unusual is they will only do that specific extra bits that tour. They do not repeat it next tour. That is how sure they are of their musicianship. I have seen most of the fancam versions of Dice/HATE and the performance levels are all top notch. Except the version from their tour finale at Yokohama. That version was OFF the charts.
Correct, they debuted this Dice/Hate? double with the extended duel feature at this concert (the kickoff for the 10th anniversary second half) and continued playing it through Yokohama. (But you know that.)
"They do not repeat it next tour." True until this okyuji, where they revived the 2018 tour duel during "Don't You Tell Me".
The extended feature in the middle of "Domination" Official Live from Line Cube Shibuya is a one-off AFAIK, no one's ever corrected me anyway.
@@TherealSeriousMoonlight They will not do it exactly the same. The Don't You Tell Me exchange was shortened. Also they have done multiple intros for Play. And about 3 versions of drum solo in Freedom. I am sure there are other examples.
@@DAVID-io9nj 👍
Things I learned today: your defense mechanism makes us happy!
Thanks for a great reaction!
It was nearly 100° that day in Chicago ! 12 hours before this,they were just completing another concert . Their stamina and joy for performing is second to none ! If Band Maid ever needs a flute player with tons of energetic joy, they should have you on speed dial ! ♥️😁
The 2022 US tour had taught these talented ladies well about pacing and stamina. I was fortunate enough to catch 2 of their NY local area shows toward the end of the tour. By then, they had cut their set down to 17 in NY and 16 in NJ when Kanami had to run off the stage for a brief rest before finishing up the show. They were still amazing.
You may be thinking of Aftershock. I was there and it was 80ish degrees.
@@_DriveTime You may be right, I was not there. But it was still a hell of a feat to pull off that amazing show after only 12 hours in between! And yeah, I have heard rumors that Aftershock was brutally hot (2022) and may have really hurt Kanami right out of the gate. It certainly didn't help. Thankfully that was a very short set.
Yeah, Frank, 12 hours between shows - 90 minutes the night before and then that power packed hour just 12 hours later. Whew!!! That's a lot.
@@charlescoleman4017 They were running on 'banana power' and laughter from watching the Band of Maids channel ! 😆
Miku plays a guitar made by Zemaitis. It’s called the Flappy Pigeon, a signature model she designed. There’s a video on YT of when she visits the location where the guitars are made. Po.
Your reactions have become a Sunday morning ritual for me now. Thanks!
You should also note...At the beginning of the second verse, Akane looses a stick and doesn't miss a beat !!
That's our gorilla for you, gotta love her! ♥
If you look closer, you'll notice she actually threw it away... she must have broke it.
@@motley22crue Some online speculation is that is was SO hot,the sweat caused it to slip. Whatever the reason... She's still perfect ! ♥️
It's at 11:20 in your vid , the 1st time.
Nitpicc actually paused it as Akane-san was grabbing a new stick. lol
Aside from the video producers having their heads up their butts, this was stall a great performance and I'm sure they woke up a lot of new people in the audience. I LOVE Kanami and MISA's "Crazy Eyes" when they were gettin' it! Could you imagine being in the audience and watching this performance not knowing who the hell Band-Maid is and then this guitar battle commences?
....cute doggy
The members were super pumped up for this festival.
Especially Akane if you watch carefully you can see the rack toms on the kit rocking about (the kit was on a mobile stand and at one point the band's tech had to make a running repair).
You can see the power of her kicks distorting the front of the bass drum, she broke two sticks in this set.
I was at the Chicago show the night before this performance. They played an 18 song set that did not get over with until around 1am. And it was a very high energy show. Then roughly 12 hours later they had this performance. They are unbelievable! Once I saw you get excited about the Misa/Kanami solos in Dice, I knew you were going to have your mind blown with their Hate performance.
Did they start at 11? The Nashville show was like 18 or 19 songs and it was an hour and 45 minutes.
Miku plays on her signature model from Zeimatis called Flappy pidgeon, its beatifull one. I also like the look of another model - Aces and eights
I will join patreon support few weeks later, when i finish a watch along tv show.
Interested in Miku's guitar you there is a video of Miku doing a walkthrough of the zemaitis factory where her signature flappy pigeon was made.
Yeah that's a good one :)
Hail the Flappy Pigeon! Only 50 exist and Miku’s is #01.
Zemaitis
@@enol8603 One out of 25 isn't bad for me.😁😁
Akane got the nickname GORILLA for a reason! 🤣
Misa-Kanami Battle in Yokohama 10y Concert is maybe best two minutes I’ve ever seen 🔥❤️
Loving your take NP! By Lollapalooza the Maids were in full swing for their Anniversary tour and blew away the crowd who were not really expecting hard rock instrumentals for this festival. I think the Maids have developed a taste for festivals too! So many smiles! And just by the way... Akane now my favourite drummer in the World.
So - years before this I swore I'd never go to Lollapalooza again, as the crowds were so insane for the headliners that it just wasn't worth it to endure them. Then Lolla announced their lineup. I can't NOT go see Band-Maid when they're playing in my backyard (more or less). Then - they announced that they'd be playing the previous night too in a midnight show at Park West. So - two shows within about 12 hours of each other. Being an old fart, I promptly looked for a hotel downtown and after recovering from a small heart attack at the prices of hotels during Lolla, I did my thing. (I've spent a lot of money to see this band and don't regret a cent of it!)
So here's the thing on the crowd. Remember this - there was NO other act the entire day that did hard rock or metal. I did see a small indie group that was nice to listen to, but otherwise it was all hip hop or (gasp) DJ's. Band-Maid, luckily for me but not the ladies, played early - at 1 or 2pm or something like that. Many attendees don't even show up that early. The crowd I thought at the time of the start was disappointingly small for this reason. It was not at all like their regular shows, like the one I saw at the HOB San Diego, where the crowd is all in, insanely loud and it's just a big love fest. But here, the number of fans did increase, especially after they had another cool bass/guitar duel in their awesome track "Don't You Tell ME!". The show the night before was also far from sold out, but it was late, and it does make it more difficult for surburbanites like myself to attend. Both shows were needless to say, fantastic!
I hope they do this same thing next year, because I'd do it again in a heartbeat!!
maybe try airbnb or sonder? Good alternatives to hotels. I've used them when traveling
@@Bekka_Noyb I have too but for some reason it never occurs to me when it's in chicago.
Wow, sounds like I was at three of the same shows you attended!😂. Yes, well worth the hotel price. I also thought the show the night before was awesome too! Met new fans that drive from New York!! #bandmaid
@@jeffreykuska7877 🤘😎😁
Thank you for reacting to this live performance and BAND-MAID in general. When I first watched a BAND-MAID video it was THRILL (2014/15) and I was taken back by their talent, their song of choice which was in contrast to their outfits and, I confess, their kawaii appearance in general. That said, after the second song I heard from these five gals (REAL EXISTENCE) it was the music that carried me into fandom. Lastly, and just as important to me, their kinship with each other and their genuine charisma put them on top of every other talented act today. I hope you continue to enjoy our magnificent, yet humble, five powerhouses.
Band-Maid commented in a interview after their appearance that it was the hottest concert that they ever played. Misa actually had to put her shoes back on after the first song.
MISA MISA MISA in shoes ... I only have a couple of photos ;) .
You may be thinking of Aftershock. I was there and it was 80ish degrees.
This was hotter apparently @@_DriveTime
Now you've done it! You are now a full-fledged Princess and Maidiac. So Miku has her own Zemaitis guitar - The Flappy Pigeon, she has used other custom Zemaitis but this is her personal model. And the section where you stopped to talk about Akane is where you can see her throw a broken stick away - seamless and no big deal - that's how pro they are.
The sheer joy you have of just seeing MISA and Kanami jam......I just love seeing it :)
Now, for the love of MISA I have something special for you. Sayonakidori acoustic version is just MISA, Akane and Miku. I promise, from your musicians angle, you'll love it.
They play this song/Hate/on Yokohama 10th anniversary show...that one good camera shot 😉 It's on the new blue ray &dvd.
Best live band on the planet,i am an old fella and seen them all,late 70s onwards,these ladies are in İMO.the best songwriters,players.total joy to watch,so glad i found this band,great reaction NP.
Great reaction! 🙂 Boy oh boy, you are a welcome addition to our Maidiac community! Rediscovering them through your eyes is so much fun! 🤘😋🤘
💯
Great point Dave ! Her enthusiasm was so Unleashed!!!!! it made her dog think something was amiss ! 😆♥️
Any chance we can get your reaction to the Manners/Black Hole pair ??? It has simply never stopped being my favourite of all !
A new level of excitement! "Yeah, it was great! But was it 'Startle the dog' great? Hahahaha @@frankandre4385
@@wave8359 When she does...she better not have the dog in the room. She'll have an out of body experience ! 🤯
If you want to see them live with better camera work, they are taking pre-orders for a DVD/Blu-ray of their Yokohama Arena show on November 26th 2023. The deluxe package comes with a behind the scenes video as well. That show was easily the best concert I have ever seen and I'm 60. It was the tour final of their 10th Anniversary Tour and it lasted 3 & 1/2 hours! It should ship out March 27th. I believe it will have English subtitles, too. Again, thanks for your fun reaction! Can't wait for next Sunday!
Interested! Where can you pre-order/buy it? (Sorry for my ignorance)
@@andreasvomdorp7852 Band-Maid's Official website, CD Japan, or from Pony Canyon's website. I have used all of these places.
@@andreasvomdorp7852 CDJapan is where I ordered mine.
I’m also interested, where can I pre order?
CDjapan, HMV japan, tower records.
All provide international shipping
speaking of Akane, about 12:55 (your time line) she cracks a stick, tosses it and grabs a new one without missing a beat, also because they have been together for 10 yrs now with the same lineup, they can read each other like a book, and because they are all top-tier musicians there is no ego crap about 1 maybe 2 members carrying the band
Another great reaction video! Thank you for your enthusiasm and all the love for this amazing, wonderful band! We were waiting to see this, 'cause we knew your head would explode. LOL! If you want to get a good look at Miku's guitar, do an image search for Miku Band Maid Flappy Pigeon. Made by Zemaitis for her and with her design help. Very beautiful instrument! In Dallas in 2022, fans there had a big cake made of her guitar - the Flappy Pigeon - for her birthday - October 21st.
I usually avoid reviewers who interrupt the music videos in mid-play because mostly they are trying to be cute or witty but a very few, you being one of them, point out some details that I have clearly missed, despite me already having watched the video about a dozen times. Keep up the good work, I look forward to more of your reviews.
have a look at "【#ZEMAITIS Factory Tour】Guest-Miku Kobato from BAND-MAID｜岐阜県のゼマイティス工場にバンドメイドの小鳩ミク氏が訪問。" Miku tours the Zemaitis Factory whilst they make her signature flappy pigeon guitar.
and my god that Misa v Mincho battle wow
That was a really interesting vid ... all the instruments are indeed hand MAID and finished. MIKU as a luthier ;) .
Ohrenje maid a new version of Saiki's doc, it was uploaded last week.
The camera direction is obviously lost BUT it also give us wonderfull and unusual shots of Akane and Saiki during the guitar/bass "duel". It's such a pleasure to witness how much they enjoy themselves!
Thank you very much for your wonderful comment. Some say that rock was born in America, developed in England, and was perfected in Japan. There are many great groups in Japan, including "Baby Metal". “Band Maid” Kanami has composed over 130 songs, all of which are wonderful. She is also said to be a genius. Miku, who plays the side guitar, writes all the lyrics. “Akane” on drums and “Misa” on bass are amazing technicians as you can see. In particular, ``Akane'' has amazing stamina as well as technique, and is called the ``gorilla.'' Singer “Saiki” is also a great singer. It is rare to find a group with such world-class members. All the new songs are amazing. Please enjoy it.🤩
God i wish more reactors were like NittPicc :)
Nah ... this makes it special ;) .
@@PANIC_aka_PinD Hmm, you know what you're right, stuff all the morose reactors :)
@@GaryHolloway-810 My mom always told me ... if it wasn't for my bad cooking, you would not know what good food was like when you go out :p .
@@PANIC_aka_PinD Haha. Mom always knows best. Tho depending what outlets you dine at you're not always sure if your eating animals that humans would normally eat.😂
@@GaryHolloway-810 That's my MOTHER IN LAW ... who is actually a fabulous cook of all things unidentifiable ;) .
That's Miku's signature guitar, the Zemaitis Flappy Pigeon. It has a rose engraving in mother of pearl and dozens of big and little pigeons engraved in the metal front.
Prescription: Take one Band-Maid video as often as possible. Possible side effects include: Melted face and/or brain. Worth(?): Absolutely!
Been looking forward to this because I knew it was going to be a giggle-fest.
Also, this wasn't even the only song in their set to use a back and forth between Misa and Kanami. They revisited an arrangement that they originally did in 2017-18 on another song earlier in the set ("Don't You Tell ME").
They are Queens of Transitions!
Great work, NittPicc! Always a pleasure! Funny, I've actually seen other reactors tear-up and their pets become "concerned" during forays down the pigeonhole. It's what us Maidiacs call, "The Power of The Maids." REALLY looking forward to you checkin' out some of Band-Maid's more mid-tempo or acoustic stuff. "Sayonakidori" (acoustic),"Daydreaming" (mv), and "About Us" (live mv) in particular. Also, the docs by Ohrenji are OUTSTANDING. Saiki is where to start with those (I'd recommend doing them one at a time as they are pretty long). Thanks much and keep smiling!"! 🕊
The camera missing a lot of the solo parts was super frustrating!
The Maids, of course, killed it!
😂😂😂reaction!
LOOOOL. You were not ready. You thought you were.
Band-Maid... the only band I follow that I expect to be surprised and every. single. time. they manage to surprise me MORE than I could ever imagine. I was watching this stream live and the raw POWER and ENERGY of Saiki during this set was something to behold. She was on FIRE! Saiki is always mesmerizing to watch, she grabs ahold of you and doesn't let go, but this set was a whole other level, honestly the whole band was like full SuperSaiyan for this set, lol. My bias is MISA and I always get on her side for shows but somehow always end up watching Saiki on stage.
They opened a lot of eyes and ears on this day. 😎🤘
This is a kick-ass performance… so raw and fun! And you know there are quite a few people in that crowd who have never heard them before, so that’s awesome to think about. And, as cool as it is to see them display their talents this way, my favorite moments are Saiki’s smiles as her bandmate’s are going off!
This should be mandatory viewing by up and coming performers and also for many so called established rock bands yeah looking at you Motley Crue. These Rock Goddesses give their all and it's about entertaining the crowd and not about buffing their own ego's. Weird as it may sound, I always feel like an immensely proud Uncle when I see these amazing musical unicorns slaying it on stage. Love your B-M reactions, you fan girl out as much as you want because we're all doing the same. FCK I love this band 👍🍻
Their live performances are unmatched 🤘🏻
Thanks for your entertaining and informative reactions. You are one of the best Band Maid reactors in my opinion. Keep up:)
Their shows are pretty different. I think they played over 100 different songs across their 2023 tour. They tend to have a set of openers and a set of closers but they mix up what gets played in the middle considerably. One of the things that was consistent for every show after this one was that they played Dice+Hate? with the extended guitar/bass duel. I saw them in Anaheim which was rather hot and the notable differences were that Kanami chugs water before coming in slightly late but EXTREMELY aggressively on Hate?, also instead of sitting Saiki watered Akane.
They really seem to try making every set special in some way. The night before I saw them in Anaheim they played Shambles for the first time live in Sacramento (roughly a week after releasing it online). At my show they played Rinne for the first time live outside of Japan. Once they got back to Japan they dropped IIRC 3 unreleased songs across that leg of their tour.
Might be Manners+Black Hole(*) twofer contrast time. Have some coffee during Manners -- comfy yet spunky, deceptively simple(**) blues groove -- the bass comes out swinging. Had enough coffee? Black Hole is a crazy BPM, often 5-6 different random-sounding parts which gel through masterful composition and musicianship -- with some prominent bass. I've heard it many many times and it's still melting my brain.

Welcome Home Princess NittPicc! It was worth the wait to see you react to this one. Miku's guitar is her signature model "Flappy Pigeon" made in a very limited edition by Zemaitis with only 80 of them made. Each of those guitars has Miku's signature and comes with a certificate with Miku's signature. She helped design it as well. Ohrenje posted a newer version of the Saiki documentary last Monday, so I don't know if he is planning on updating the rest of the documentaries. The documentaries are pretty well made, so I think you will enjoy them. Please take very good care of yourself and have an awesome week! I'm looking forward to next Sunday.
People complaining about the mix or saying it isn't good are missing the mark. This is a pretty decent recording of a live outdoor show with no post production.
There is nothing I can't hear in this.
It's because they are used to the pro shot live vids.
The original Hulu feed was good. This version has been downloaded and reuploaded enough times that it's become overly compressed. The treble, especially Kanami has become muddled.
People complain about the video, but I doubt they would do better. They had only so many cameras and so much to film. The bass and guitar call and response was done earlier in the set, and and this was the first time done for "Hate." The director could not have expected it.
NittPicc, rumor has it that Akane's drum kit has applied for a restraining order against her! LOL! Akane is a beast! A gorilla, to be exact. She refers to herself as half human - half gorilla. During the 2022 US Tour, she would eat a banana on stage, sign the peel and then toss it into the crowd! It was an awesome bit of fun!
Yeah, and they all thought we were completely insane for wanting them to sign garbage and throw it at us. But they did it anyway XD
@@chrisbergsten1429 It was a blast! I just wish I had gotten one of the banana peels! LOL!
They also performed 18 songs at Park West overnight, less than half a day before this set started!!!
Akane doesn't play drums. She beats up her drum kit 😆🥁🔨
Rumor has it that her drum kit applied for a restraining order against her! LOL!!
I found it.....its..."Don't you tell me"...live at Zepp Tokyo....more of Misa and Kanami treating the audience to a battle royale....enjoy....better audio and video....brings tears to an old man's eyes
Lol, just when you was telling Akane was killing it in your video, she just was killing one of her drumsticks in Lolla.
I think the reason we love Hate so much is because the Maids have so much fun playing it. They get to go wild. Especially Saiki, since she wrote the lyrics. And Dice is just quintessential, hard rock Band-Maid at its finest. Thx, Ms Picc! 🤘😂
Make sure to react to their April Fool's Project (2018-2019) Band Maiko - 2 MVs, Secret Maiko Lips (cover of "Secret my Lips) and an origtinal, "Gion cho".
8:19 - "Look at that guitar!". That's Miku's signature model Zemaitis, the 'Flappy Pigeon'. It has a pigeon and her signature engraved on it and is available to buy.
Not any more ... SOLD OUT ;) .
There hasn't been a Flappy Pigeon for sale in the wild since Dec 2022. Last one that sold went for over $6000. They may move privately, but I think most of us take the "From my cold, dead hands" approach when it comes to our FP.
We love 🎀BAND-MAID🎸⚡🥁your reaction is great!!!😎🤘
I believe they were first on stage that day! I can hear the organizers at the end of day..."Man, we should've made Band-Maid the headliner today! We'll know better next time!" 😳😬
They for sure is one of the most entertaining bands to see live.
Mostly because they always give 100%.
Misa and Akane is one of my favourite rythm sections.
Kind of reminds me of Geddy Lee and Neil Peart. Always in the pocket.
About Valentines day? Nah.. haven't been in a relationship.
Obviously not good for my psyche.. Because of different reasons.
You for sure must have had a great one!
You're such a bundle of joy, so don't see any reason for why a man shouldn't give you any attention!
Thanks for the great reaction.
More fun to come ;-)
I’m glad you are enjoying your journey. I knew you were going to click with these ladies. As others have mentioned Miku’s guitar is her Zemaitis signature model with a number of elements she helped design from the large flying (flapping) pigeon down to her hand written Zemaitis logo under the strings between the pickups. As far as I know it’s also the only Zemaitis model with the metal front cut away to reveal the rose inlay she wanted on the body. It’s one of the prettiest guitars I’ve ever seen.
That guitar-bass battle was just HNNN so good! If only the camera work at that live was better, but we take what we have, right? ♥
Always a pleasure to watch you react to the Maids, Nitt ! ♥
Miku has a real nice line of guitars from Zamaitis. You have to look for it, but there's a video that shows all of them. It might even be in the documentary about Miku. She has some outstanding designs. She has a really nice Flying V. I just LOVE watching your reactions, it's about the same experience as a live show with Band Maid, lol.
What I love are the HUNDREDS of people who being won over from knowing noting at all in the middle of the afternoon. I am reminded of 1979 in Germany at a festival around 3pm tons of GI;s and Germans and the announcer just said Jets SCORPIONS! The Germans in the crowd surged and the GI's waiting for Cheap Trick and The Who just looked a a lab puppy hearing siren.
Enjoyed your reaction …Can’t wait for your next Sunday reaction…good times!
Here’s to Band-Maid! Rock on Pigeon, Gorilla, Barefoot Assassin, Ice Queen & Princess Genius who only has eyes for Saiki.
🤘🕊️🦍🥷👸🏻👀
Though many people were disappointed in the video work done by the Hulu channel people I figured to look at the bright side of getting views from the backstage cameras and of Akane from an angle not usually seen. Glad you watched this. They performed this duo also at the Yokohama final concert of the tour, and also at all the stops in between.
The only thing we completely missed was one of Kanami's solos and MISA's first part of the duel. We pretty much got everything else we would have wanted to see, I think. And we did get some neat shots of Akane, who tends to get a bit ignored in the back. So I can't really be mad about it.
This was a great reaction! It’s always nice to see people smile or laugh while enjoying something. And there are a lot of these emotions in your video! I love this!
BAND-MAID is always amazing! I really enjoy seeing your reactions to this band.
Since you haven't talked much about Miku, you should watch their live video "Sayonakidori" Acoustic Ver. on their official CZcams channel. This is one of the "Miku songs"! And of course, you should watch BAND-MAID documentaries by Ohrenje!
Thank you for the video! More BAND-MAID on the channel! And I suggest you to watch another Japanese all female band called Lovebites. You will be impressed. They are much heavier than BAND-MAID! I suggest you to start with their live video "Holy war" from their official CZcams channel!
In case you weren't aware, Band Maid uploaded a high quality live version of "Hate" to their youtube page and you can see very well what they are doing. Fantastic camera work.
I saw them a few days after this performance. Everyone had seen this video and we were ready for the transition between the two songs and the huge duel. Life changing.
Great reaction and when they hit the stage the temperature was between 95-100F. The girls later said this was the hottest show they've ever played. Also, the lyrics to HATE? were written by the main singer, Saiki, about her friend's husband caught cheating on her, which caused a huge scandal in Japan.
Akane is beating that kit like it's rented... which of course it is since they're touring! My heart hopes the video director is learning and growing in their role. They certainly earned a spot in Band-Maid lore, for good or bad. Good thing the fan-base are kind people. Thanks for the reaction!
So nice to see another female reactor recognizing the brilliance of this band!
It's so refreshing to see a reactor being so much in love with this amazing band,as I have been since discovering them some 2 years ago. Don't they just melt your brain and fill your heart space reserved for the great ones who come along and blow you away. I just love how the two Japanese all girl hard rock and power metal bands Bandmaid and Lovebites just keep getting better with each new album, as we are seeing the rebirth of those two genres before our eyes and in our ears. I hope you show your enthusiasm for lovebites when you react to some of their amazing music videos and esp. their live performances as they are on par with bandmaid"s, so I will be subscribing to this channel and when I can will support you on Patreon when I can,so keep up the positive energy and love for my favourite new artists from the west coast of Canada
Most of their live solos are pretty much the same, but they quite often add new intros which are always very cool. They had some super cool intros at their recent Yokohama Arena show. Totally badass!
Besides the sheer joy of watching their live concerts, I think you would really love owning some of their concert blurays.
The reason is that you have spoken in the past on how the song might sound differently with lyrics or without. Well, on their concert blurays, they usually include 2-3 "White Room" videos that take a song and film it as a pure instrumental. No singer (with no disrespect meant to the wonderful and talented Saiki). But it isn't just filmed as a straight video. It is filmed as a whole (like you'd expect), and also 4 additional versions each featuring JUST one member. Want to watch the song played with total focus on Misa? You can. On Akane? You can - etc. And they remain mostly static, letting you actually SEE what they are playing. But further, one of the more incredible aspects is that often times, the song sounds *completely* different without the vocals - like a totally different song.
Obviously maybe don't watch until you've reacted to everything you wish on the channel. But I think you'd really enjoy owning and watching them eventually.
Request: Puzzle official live 😉
Legendary performance 🤘
They recently had refined their "Fighting gear." They commissioned @kimikatrock, a boutique vintage dress designer, to develop gear unique to each personality. I think the Look is Maid Cafe Biker Chic, Po! You can clearly see it in their latest offering, "Unleash Live MV," Po! 🦍🍌
It took a while for the penny to drop, but Kanami's dress is the Band Maid logo - genius design.
The first song ends when everything but the drums stop.
The drums are the beginning of the second song.
Also, it was in the 90’s that day.
They were drenched in sweat.
It's such a pleasure to see you enjoying this video with such joy and happiness. Being this band is one of my favorite bands I've ever heard. And I'm 60 years old so I've seen all the major rock bands over the decades
Hello again to the awesome Princess NittPicc, I hope you are having an awesome week and that this weekend will be even better. You have probably heard this several dozen times, but Band Maid released a new live video of the song, "Don't You Tell Me" from their 10th anniversary tour finale at Yokohama arena. I'm pretty sure you are going to love it. I think Yokohama arena was the biggest venue they have played at so far and during the concert they played 33 songs over the course of about 3-1/2 hours and the concert was full of surprises during the show. They will be releasing a video of the concert pretty soon, and I'm definitely going to get that video even though I watched the livestream of the concert 3 or 4 times already. Please take very good care of yourself.
I gotta tell ya, Nitt... the Band-Maid Rockville festival performance is as World Domination worthy as it gets... for any band. The security guard and side stage gathering is fun to watch, too. Experience it at: czcams.com/video/vjZkNeoGmhc/video.html
Please watch the BAND-MAID Documentary / SAIKI Ohrenj serie about each member (this is the hint to get the first one), you will get a picture a context of them and the band, as you love their work so much (and I do love their work too.)
I was hoping you would do this one soon! You looked like you were on a rollercoaster 😂. Dice was my very first song from them. Still love it! I'm kicking myself still because I could have seen them at lollapalooza but didn't go. Btw Miku's guitar is her own brand Zemaitis guitar called the Flappy Pigeon.
You're starting to get a feel for what Band-Maid is and what they do, right? You're turning into a fan-girl? You need to watch Band-Maiko *"Secret Maiko Lips."* They are more than you suspect.
