「SCANDAL TOUR 2017『SCANDAL's 47 Prefecture Tour』」 Osaka performance report

---

【SCANDAL TOUR 2017『SCANDAL's 47 Prefecture Tour』】 started on 3/11 at Kumamoto B.9 V1, with performance ＃20 at Zepp Osaka Bayside on 4/22.

For the live, plenty of songs were selected from their best album 『SCANDAL』 released in commemoration of their 10th anniversary. HARUNA got the crowd going with,「We've done 20 performances of this tour and each one has been awesome, but we believe that today will be an even more awesome night. So, let's do it, Osaka!」, and both the girls and the audience heated up rapidly with a straight rock number.

With it being SCANDAL's hometown, the Kansai talk wouldn't stop during the midway MC. The newly completed Zepp Osaka Bayside is next to Universal Studios Japan, and in particular, RINA's stern pronunciation of "Univa" invited the laughter of the venue. The second half of the show started with, 「I'd like to deliver both our minds and bodies powerfully」. The mid-tempo songs captured the hearts of the fans and burst the upbeat songs in succession. During the encore they looked back on last year's 【SCANDAL 10th ANNIVERSARY FESTIVAL 『2006-2016』】, the event held at Izumiotsu Phoenix on their day of formation. They announced their event that will be held at Billboard Live OSAKA with, 「We'll talk about what we're doing this year」 and 「We'll be celebrating 8/21 in Osaka this year too」. With the venue never ceasing their cheers, they said, 「We'll deliver an Osaka special」 and finished with three encore songs, ending their live with excitement and enthusiasm.

Additionally, with their 11th anniversary live that will be held at Billboard Live OSAKA, they will be the first artist featured on the Japanese production of MTV『Storytellers』. Look forward to this as well.
