Ghost Photographer (*bwahahah*) (2009.5.29 02:47)

When I took some phone pictures on the way back from the few days of recording, that strange face behind me got photographed. (^_^)


We'd been filming a PV for the past couple days, so we were quite worn out. (^^;)

But I saw that strange face and felt quite better. (^_^) He's quite a nice manager-san. (^_^)

There's always a swell of music lectures with him, so he might show up a lot from here on out. (^_^)

Incidentally, I had to keep it a secret until we were on tour, but I boldly died my hair blond. (^_^)

For a while my hair was on fire. (bwahahah) That bleach was so hot it was like my scalp was on fire, it was really painful... (^^;)

You all be good kids and don't copycat me. (^_^)

Well then well then

P.S. Wow, three whole years went past before I knew it... With the tour this past year, I haven't had much free time, and the posting has been stop and go (^^;)

but I'm always grateful to all of you.

In order to make a good stage show, we've gotta give it our all, so please watch over me during the long days from here on out. (^_^)

Time for a Go For It renewal... (^^;)

Rehearsal Rehearsal Rehearsal (2009.5.21 20:27)

The arena days approaches, you know.

I'm stuffed into my studio as usual. (^^;) We had rehearsal the other day, so I headed out to music store for the first time in a while, with the exception of CD stores. (^_^)


Pro studios's ceilings are always surprisingly high, and really wide. Well, it's a rehearsal for the stage, so it's natural of course, but still.

Sometimes it makes me nostalgic for the 6-jou rooms of Machi Star. * For when I used to tromp back and forth with a guitar strapped to my back.

These days there could be an explosion and I still wouldn't leave the house.


Well, no matter how much I longed for Machi Star,

frankly, I've got so much equipment now that I can't possibly carry it all by myself. (^_^)

Although, this is compact, for tour usage, traveling resources. My house is full up with recording items and machines I never use.

So, we earnestly rehearse, but even though it's broken up over several days, it is intense... (^^;)


Completely put down. (^^;)

When these tours are over, I'll drop weight in a flash, and then I'll really give a happy shout. (^_^) but my body weight decreases with my stamina. (^^;)

Body weight → as before, stamina → as before... So they say...

Is it the commander's turn? (^_^) For the second time this week, I'm tentatively enlisting in Satan's boot camp. (^_^)

Yeah, thanks for the daily muscle pain.

Well then well then everyone...

Please do somee good sweating yourselves, okay? (^_^)


[ * 6 jou = about 10 square meters. ]

Install Complete~ (2009511 23:59)

I'm like an insomniac shut-in now. (^^;) At last the system migration is finished.


The OS and the Mac and the software are all new, so it was an install from scratch... The upgrading, authorizing... There were so many things to do I couldn't even count them... (^^;)

PC efficiency is getting really high, and these days DTM is becoming more familiar, * and I've been wondering about all the people who use Pro Tools,


but since I'm such a heavy user system upgrades always put me hard to it... **

But for software like this, there's only foreign sites. So I'm forced to rely solely on translating software... (^_^)

At long last I have jumped over that waterfall and bought Mac Pro. (^_^) Who knows if I'll put it to good use though.

I've got some ways to go before I sleep and the days keep coming...


Thus ends the space lecture. (bwahahah)


[ * which is ironic, since i had no clue what he was talking about. DTM would be an acronym for DeskTop Music, i.e. the making of music with a desktop computer. usually, this means what we would think of as 'computer-generated music' but it's also expanded to include music augmented by computers or post-processed with computers.
** literally, they put him in the four and eight kinds of buddhist suffering. (^_^) ]

rain Rain RAIN... (2009.5.8 07:31)

GW is over, and it's been nothing but rain... (^^;)

This has nothing to do with that, but...


I finally bought a Mac Pro. (^_^)

So now I'll really be a shut-in... (*major (^^;)*)

Well, it's for work use, but if I think about the huge install ahead of me, it makes me a little faint, so. (^^;)

Now I'm all excited. (^_^)

Well then well then, let's not be defeated with this rain, and give today all we've got. (^_^)

It was GW. (^^;) (2009.5.3 00:11)

I didn't even realize it was GW. (^^;)

If I'm even a little a little bit of a shut-in, I end up completely cut off from the outside world... (^_^)

Well it's not exactly for that reason, or even those kind of reasons, but still. (^_^) I've been going to the Tokyo Dome in between recording sessions.


Man~ That was really the best live. (*joy*) It's been a while since I've seen this kind of live, that's the feeling I had.

There my respected elders were right there on stage before my eyes, and I put my fighting spirit on and headed for the arena with great meaning.

I'm itching to get back to it now. (^_^)

The Tokyo Dome... I remembered that sacred night... As for me, even now, man, it will always continue to be a special place for me.

Well then well then, everyone please enjoy your vacation at your east. (^_^)
