MC:

Quiz MC this year was based on Prefecture, Scandal got 4 out of 5 questions correct so "lost" a Hokkaido Seafood dinner, Timo joked she wanted to join the Seafood dinner so please call her. Mami wanted to answer differently, for the last question they failed on and so gave us funny looks afterwards :D The prize was drawn from ticket stubs.

Mami mentioned they this years costume was not going to be used after the show, so let's give it away, so 4 more ticket stubs were drawn.

Later MC mentioned about the new album Honey and Haruna also mentioned she brought a car and now listens to a lot of music during the drive. We reacted more about Haruna driving then the new album, so they joke about it.

amazing setlist, this gives me hope of seeing kimi ni shittochuu on some future dvd or tv broadcast :D

The setlist is awesome. I'm so surprised they actually played Kimi ni shitto chuu, would LOVE to see that live, mostly for the guitar solo. And I can't wait to hear Platform Syndrome. .clap.

Wow! Kimi ni Shittochuu is one of their best and most underrated songs. An all time favorite. Also, I still remember the Seishun Amigo song. It must have been great fun! Love to see that one too...

Apparently, Seishun Amigo was done as a full on dance number. wildthing will fill us in, I hope.

Forgive me for being a late fan of them but I don't think I've heard seishun amigo. Is it a cover?

Yeah sorry about my post a bit all over the place, lots happened on stage for this live.

Yes as stated on their playlist Seishun Amigo (Shuji & Akira cover) is a cover.


There was a little bit of MC-ing where they mentioned, since they started their career from Dance school, they should do a dance number.

They were singing it and well its a popular song, so everyone was cheering them along, then during the interval of the song Timo was first to do a cartwheel across the stage left to right and then Mami did a cartwheel right to left, after which obviously we were waiting to see what Rina and Haruna would do, Rina ended up doing a leap frog over I think it was Haruna, we got all a bit excited at this point and I think Haruna did also jump over Rina. It was a lot of fun to watch!

Lol. I'd love to see that!

I wonder if this show will be aired or be included in their dvd/blu ray release.. I want to see them dancing out of curiousity. Amazing setlist as always.

@wildthing
Just wondering, how was Kimi ni Shitto chuu? I always wonder how they I'll pull off it live.

These kind of live are rarely filmed for TV, hence no video crew, the only likely video camera was at the back of the venue if any.

Why wouldn't they pull it off, the crowd by then we were already enjoying ourselves like crazy

Before the live, via a video on Club Scandal, they had already told us to expect so rare songs to be played that day.
.clap.

04. Kimi ni Shittochuu
07. Seishun Amigo (Shuji & Akira cover)
09. Futari
10. Platform Syndrome (New song)

WHAT!

GOD, Futari! Finally! Is there gonna be a vid release by any chance?

Also, any comments on Platform Syndrome from anybody who was there?

I thought they've been playing Futari for quite some time now. Or is it just me?

No, actually this is the first time this song has been played live. I honestly thought they were gonna intruduce it during their joint band tour.
