sanjyuuSEVEN debut performance

on 2nd august, my band, sanjyuuSEVEN, which was formed about a month ago, made its debut at JFR, an event at dago tea house...

it was a big event, cuz there were lots of guest stars...

there were a lot of cosplay players too, with lots of costumes of course...

there were good costumes and laughable costumes... the better ones are rather awesome, but unfortunately we didn't know who gonna be the winner, cuz the real cosplay competition will be held on the next day..

there were 15 audition bands, and we had the 11th turn... the events were delayed for about 2 hours or so, and so our turn will be at 9 pm!! aaaaaargghh... so late...

monk-monk, me and shandy got there at about 2.30 pm, and as soon as we got there, we asked for the freepass and got inside.

there were a LOT of hard-rock bands, with lots of screams and growls... and i rather didn't like them...

the first band i like was Rozuka. their play was good, better than the others, although they played hard-rock song too... after that Belle de Art came onstage. this band already had a big name, so they easily gathered the audience. this band has the same colour of music as we have, and they play the same cover as us! seems like they are also fans of L'Arc~en~ciel... they played the fourth avenue cafe and blurry eyes.. their techniques are close to us, but they got a lot better popularity..

hmm, another band that i like was 9tenchi. they played 2 songs, hard-rock, but the one i like is DOZING GREEN by dir en grey. it was awesome!!

what else?? la lumiere played versailles song, the drummer was very good..

senritsu was the only band who had 2 keyboard players... they are also good. they played malice mizer songs, i think...

the last one, d'noir, was also a band which was formed quite a while ago, like belle d'art. their 2 guitarist have amazing skills.... wheeeeew.... belle d'art (no doubt), la lumiere (acceptable), kabuki clash (don't know bout this one...), black fuji (what the??!!), and 9tenchi (no doubt, also)

whaaaaa?? d'noir was not through??!! rozuka also??!! i reaaaaally don't know what is inside the juries' heads...

the black fuji?? i reaaaaaly don't like them!!!

as for us, i think it was good enough for us to be able to get to the semi-finals, as this was our debut, and we were just formed for about a month ago...

the other bands were formed for about, a year ago, or maybe more...

or the members of the bands already got many experiences, like rozuka, which is formed by people who were key-players in their former bands...

oh, and for our performance, well, it's not bad, but we got the audience's attention. well, there's nobody who got on their feet and went to the front of the stage, maybe cuz NOBODY already knew us... we are a new band, afterall...

we played LINK and STAY AWAY by laruku...

there were some mistakes made by each of us, like shandy, who was very active, he forgot a little of the lyrics... juan, monk2, and myself missed a little of the notes, but i think we played well overall.

ok then!! we'll try again in the next event!!

nyaaappy~~
