2010/10/27-28 BUCK-TICK CC Lemon Hall; Tokyo, JP
The CC Lemon shows were basically a re-order of the Saitama show, with ONE song difference between the 2 dates.
Day I:
Also- just checked after a sneaking suspicion & realized that out of 11 Buck-Tick shows, I have only seen ONE that didn't include ICONOCLASM or スピード (or both). You'd think a band with well over 200 songs would have a bit more rotation of the non-current-album songs... I mean, I do appreciate getting to hear every song off the new album (and I spent probably way too much time during the show taking notes on chord positions & who played which part >_<;), but that still leaves 7 other slots, and if they're only changing one of those... oh well.
Oh- also? On the second night, we got to our seats, & the girl to my left was like "Ah, Eric-san?" Apparently she remembered me from a "B-T session organized by Luna Sea-kei people". ha!
Imai posted the pre-show BGM tracklist, which featured quite a bit of Django Reinhardt (gee, I wonder why? (hint: see setlist track 7)), some more Klaus Nomi, & a Japanese jazz band called The Spoil (who apparently were inspired by the 'playing old songs in a new style' of Blue Rondo á la Turk, The Stray Cats and Klaus Nomi (6 degrees!)). Oh, and there was also a song that totally sounded like NIN, only with a female vocalist (to the point I actually said, out loud, "This totally sounds like NIN...")- which turned out to be... How to Destroy Angels (aka Trent Reznor and his wife). Ha.
Today there's a bunch of Halloween parties. And a typhoon. With expected rain of 18mm/h around 8pm. GUH. (For reference, light drizzle is ~1mm/hr, and 'normal' rain (fairly heavy for here) is about 4-5). Not exactly something I want to deal with while walking half a mile in costume. -_-; Might end up just saying screw it & staying home for all I know, we'll see. Anyway, time to go hang the laundry (inside). :P"
