MASOCHISTIC ONO BAND Live Tour 2015

[nggallery id=32]

MOB’s first live tour took place in Kobe and Makuhari in June and July.

I arrived in Kobe a day early so I could line up for goods. Took the first train on the Port Liner to arrive at around 6AM and already there was a sizable line. Obviously these were people who were staying at the hotel near the venue. (I didn’t stay there because there is absolutely nothing in the way of food, convenience stores, etc. in the area.) Apparently there was a high school swimming tournament at the venue next door so there were a lot of students passing by. Their puzzled looks when they looked at the event schedule for World Hall were hilarious. Didn’t have any problems buying all the goods I wanted, though the line was pretty hot. Near the goods entrance were the present boxes and they had separate boxes for HIRO-C and Kamiya Hiroshi, and ONO-D and Ono Daisuke. XD After goods, my friend and I went back to our hotel to catch up on sleep.

The set list for all four shows were the same, except the guests were different for Kobe and Makuhari. At Kobe it was Miyake Hirofumi (aka Hiropon, whom you have probably seen as the bassist at OrePara), and at Makuhari it was Oka Naoki. The corners were also the same but with different contents. The videos shown were all the same too, though I was hoping they would be different.

Before the event, they plays songs that were sung at karaoke for OnoD’s birthday episode such as JoJo, FLYING IN THE SKY, Dragon Night, Guren no Yumiya, etc. The audience got really pumped up just listening to the songs. Finally when the lights went down, there was a video played on the monitor with the band members explaining what they thought “rock” is. After, each of the band members were called up onto the stage with the announcements recorded by Lenne Hardt (American seiyuu affiliated with Aoni Production). While the back band came onto the stage from the side, HIRO-C and ONO-D came from below via a pop up mechanism on the stage. Read more…

Lots of updates for Kamiya Kiramune-wise today. Kamiya’s new artist photo as well as the jacket covers for his upcoming mini albums were uploaded, and the track lists for the CDs were also announced.  A short CM for Haregou and a fairly long (4 minutes!) comment video are also up on the official YouTube account. The comment video will only be available for a limited time until July 30 however.

The track lists for the CDs are as follows:

  3. JAM packed TRAIN (Switch Back)
  4. my life my time (GLIND HOP)
  5. Runaway Train (Not fade away)

“Hare Rock” is of course a pun. It is written as “roku” which means 6, and the CD contains covers of Kiramune member songs with a rock taste arrangement. The goukaban versions will include a DVD. Haregou will have a PV for HA-RE? GO! and Hare Rock will have a new PV for my diary.

The lottery for Kamiya’s first live will begin July 11 and it will be limited to members of the Kiramune Star Club.
