    All it takes is for anyone with a true music background to see the Maids just once. They immediately see the power and talent of this band. The Maids will be a worldwide phenomenon and one of the most popular bands ever.

    I love this format of introducing various bands to fellow roadies , it's a refreshing change from the usual reactions

      I agree. I like that. Then there are two genuine roadies that have toured with the great bands in the same session. And I like when he is showing proudly bands that he likes, to roadies that have no clue. I do not know if this guy has the powers to approach BAND-MAID or if he was just talking. He absolutely wished he could though. That was obvious.

    Choose Me is one of my all time favorite songs from the Maids, and the song that I started getting back into playing bass with. But as awesome as this song is, Kanami has come out and admitted that she can't write songs like this anymore...not because they are too hard to create, but because they are too EASY to do. lol

  • @realdocloco

    I know that light in his eye throughout the whole song! And I'm sure I had the same one the first time I saw them. The "where were they during all this time? "light in the eye.

    Bandmaid really needs someone in the US to help them open up a US based online store. They could have merch stored/shipped from here and available from here because it is so hard to use their Japanese website/store. The other day I was thinking that I would love to have a Bandmaid workout shirt to wear to the gym and it would be really nice if one were easily available on line.

    • @Parker--
      @Parker-- Před rokem +4

      They have a limited time one right now. If you go to their site, the link should be up under the merch link. Support them by buying something off the store. Show them it's something they need to make permanent.

    • @stevehall5128
      @stevehall5128 Před rokem

      The frustrating thing is there are probably plenty of fans who'd be more than happy to run regional (e.g. North America, Europe) fulfillment operations out of their garage or basement just to contribute to the community and get some free shirts

    Nice reaction and it is really nice to see the music pros. Genius idea for a podcast. And it got me to buy your book. Band-Maid's 10th anniversary year is turning out pretty good. Band-Maid was in the US last October on tour, opened for GnR the week they got back to Japan. Then in January, their biggest venue ever at Tokyo Garden and with a new song written during the October US tour. Then back again at the beginning of February to open for The Last Rockstars in NYC and LA, and filmed a music video for the new song Memorable while in LA. Then back again this coming May for three festivals and several concerts and then back again in August (no announcements yet.). Live Nation seems to be coming through for them. I hope they are collecting their frequent flyer miles. Plus they are fitting in a Japanese tour in-between, finishing at an even bigger venue in Yokohama in November. Real bunch of slackers. 🙂 I am sure people have told you The Warning and Band-Maid finally met each other in person at Aftershock in Sacramento.

    The band's hard rock sound, which is contrary to the maid's appearance, has gained support from rock and metal fans around the world, and the total number of views on CZcams exceeds 170 million.
    In 2022, the band performed at the music festival "AFTERSHOCK," and their U.S. tour, which drew over 20,000 people, was a huge success, with all venues SOLD OUT.
    Immediately after the U.S. tour, the band also performed in Japan with Guns N' Roses.
    In 2023, the band will celebrate its 10th anniversary, and will hold its 10th anniversary tour around the world, with tours in the U.S. in May and August, and appearances at major international festivals to be confirmed one after another.
