Thank you to all of you who came from all corners of Japan to gather at Yoyogi.
This year, we chose to have a 360° stage, against all odds.
Amongst ourselves, each member had debated between the 180° vs. 360°, and finally we decided on the current layout.
This time, without the V roads, some of you will have a hard time seeing (the stage), and so we cannot state that it is fair to everyone, but please bear with us.
Just a few days back, I had intruded on Oda Kazumasa-san's concert, and his wonderful voice struck so deeply within my heart, I found myself blinking back all my emotions.
Just as I'd thought, concerts are such ground-breaking things that revitalise and energise us.
An artiste once said, 「It is the norm for concerts to help one escape from reality, but these days, we live in a world where the bodily sensations that one experience from the concerts, help one to recover from one's day-to-day living 」, and his words had left a deep impression on me.
That being the case, not only will you all find a sprinkle of dreams and hopes at concerts, they might also help to pull your daily lives together. By thinking that way, I feel it is such an honor for me.
When I attend concerts, they move me emotionally, revive my spirits, recharge my energy, make me want to work harder tomorrow, etc.and it makes me realise that I have to work much harder so that those you who like us, will be able to feel the same way too. This will make us really happy.
And so, for the sake of Ishikawa's concerts, in order to charge up on my energy and courage, I will be attending Mr. Children's concert.
However, the only disappointing thing is that it is a guy who is sitting next to me. So disappointing (laughs)
p.s.
The yesterday's me (he attached pics of himself)
