Hi.
A few days ago me and Tomoya went to see Lakeside live!
I'm not really used to funk music, but it was very, very fun!
As the live was getting closer and closer to the end the audience was standing up and at the final song everyone was dancing, it was a truly amazing view!
This year I want to see gigs of various genres, I want to get inspired.
Lives are the best.
We want to perform soon as well~~
Lately, we're spending all of our time recording... the songs turned out to be quite awesome!
Because of that, yesterday I fell fast asleep.
Ho~t.

Hunting and the Universe

If I were a girl,
I would probably be in love with Nagatomo*.
On that belated day, the one who was deeply moved, here's Tomoya.**
Idaho! Personally, I like it!
Monster Hunter is too absorbing...
I really got into it...
I need to be careful with gaming too much.
Lately, just like a typical drummer, I was playing with a long sword but I kept hearing about the awesomeness of the gunlance.
I've changed it quickly, and now I'm in the middle of intensive training.
With Ryota, in our free time we're doing nothing but hunting.
I want my weapon to gain the highest level.
Having said that, some time ago,
we visited Roppongi planetarium.
Since I don't know when, I wanted to go there.
The last time I visited it was in Junior High... or in was it in elementary school?
I really enjoy stars.
The reason why I got into them is because I read "Universe Brothers"*** and it made me feel the unstoppable infinity of the Universe.
And
it felt different from the usual planetariums.
"Till the end of the universe", it was great.
I could feel again the solar system, all of the universe.
This picture was taken as we were going to the Van Gogh exhibition, capsule-toys series!
Well then, well then

We were at Shibuya station,
and discovered something unusual.
Vending machines made it to that level... Amazing.
Purchasing seems fun.
I'm sleepy!

Here's Shingeki* Tomoya.
Yesterday we held a little drummers' meeting!
In Shinjuku
Takao-shi from UNISON SQUARE GARDEN
Daisuke-kun from Base Ball Bear
Bunta-kun from TOTALFAT
Tsunoken from GOOD BYE APRIL
Monster Hunter is totally awesome. I love it, that's for sure.
After, I traded my guild card with Daisuke-kun! (laugh)
Today if you go to the bookstore you'll see GIANT KILLING volume 18! It came out! Hot!
That being said, I'm reading.
At least three times.
Well then,
Tomoya
* He's probably referring to "Shingeki no Kyojin" manga series.

How are you guys?
It's been a while since I last blogged.
I wonder, what did you think of the recent USTREAM?!
Well.. it was what it was! (laugh)
I want to do it again soon, so definitely keep an eye on it~(^^;
Today, I was totally immersed in my work so I didn't go outside at all. So much snow has accumulated!
Everyone, if you go outside, watch your step(^_^)
Later!

Answer is Near & Budokan Live DVD release! Finally!
Yesterday I forgot to post (^^;
Speaking of what I was doing yesterday, after 10 pm we were live on air at TOKYO FM's SCHOOL OF LOCK!
The audience and the show itself were hot! It feels like it gave us a lot of courage! (@゜▽゜@)
Everyone who still haven't heard it, please certainly check it out!
In my opinion, in those moments when you like feel like up against a wall, it makes you become positive.

My mouth ulcer hurts and eating is problematic. Here's Tomoya.
Finally, I arranged
the full set!
Tomoge's*
ProTools set!
The speakers,
the trackball,
and the Protools keyboard.
In order to get used to it, I'm in the middle of intensive practicing.
There are so many things I don't get, so I'm receiving help from various people.
I'm doing my best!

Fooling around.
Gunlance. Here's Tomoya.
Yesterday we performed at the live that coldrain invited us to.
It was truly an honor, extremely fun!
By the way, Fear,and loathing in Las Vegas were totally awesome.
They always give me motivation.
Everyone who came to see us, thank you!!
On this picture, I'm with Katsuma-kun from coldrain and Ucchii-san from EGG BRAIN!
From now on, Ustream!

MONSTER ROCK

I realized that iekei ramen is like home... Tomoya here.
Did you watch Monster Rock?
The startling efforts that the team puts into planning shock me every time,
but this time they came to our assistance at every opportunity and our beloved nikumaki onigiri shop, NICK'N ROLL, came to make some especially for us*.
The whole shop.
…Amazing, right?
As expected, freshly made nikumaki onigiri was exceptional.
Because we chatted for about 4 hours, I realized the people from the show had to cut many parts (laugh).
Thanks to everyone who watched it!
Since then, we are once again in a period of intensely producing new music.
Starting today, I'll be seriously spending some time alone in the studio. So, I need to do my best!
The day before yesterday I was also in the studio all day and actually I played drums yesterday too.
Really cool songs are being completed bit by bit!
I don't know when you'll be able to listen to them, but please look forward to it!
Well then.
Tomoya
* As far as I know, it's the fifth time that Monster Rock gives nikumaki onigiri to the band members when they come on their show. Maybe it's some sort of tradition now?

Ryota here.
It's really been a long time (--;)
Today, I'll write a lot!
The recent event at Bottom Line in Nagoya was extremely lively!
The energy of the audience was too amazing and somewhat eager.
As expected, Nagoya was really great!
Thank you coldrain for inviting us!!
Starting today, we're going to continue recording daily, it brings an incredibly good feeling!
He said his legs were sore, but Tomoya kept doing his best.

Right now I'm in a Monster Hunter phase and at that time I reached Level 6.
Finally, this picture...
He's been cutting my hair for more than 10 years...

That's all.
I'll write again tomorrow.
