20th Anniversary Live "FOLLOW ME" group trip

[maayalove66]

Hi all, I was so bummed because I missed this concert by 1 week, my first ever Japan trip ended one week before the show. I wanted to ask the people who attended, did they film the show at all? I'm hoping for a blu ray release since I missed the show..

Lol thanks for the pics, Scoop!

@maayalove66: Seems to be a lot of video camera recording during the concert itself (and the video looks beautiful) so here's hoping! I'd love to buy it

That is good to hear. I would definitely buy a video release of the concert, and it seems like a little while since the last concert video. It's also been 2 years since Maaya's Singer-Songwriter, so I'm anticipating a new album sometime this year.

Yes I will definitely get the bluray when it comes out. The listening experience wasn't the greatest at the arena seats whenever there was more than three instruments playing. I could barely hear any guitar at all. But it was pretty much what I expected. Maaya's voice stood out so I was happy.

I do agree with Scoop, in this big venue the sound was not that great, but it could have been really worse.

I think with a good mastering it will make a amazing DVD/BR.

Did she sing Shikisai in this concert?

how was it.. the live version?

Yes, the set list is on the previous page. It was pretty good even though like I said the sound at the arena wasn't that great.

Here are some other pictures in an album on imgur outside saitama super arena on concert day.

Too bad I for some reason didn't take a picture of the actual goods sales counter that was inside...

kbmurphy, do you have your pictures too ? I think it was with your camera we did take some in front of the purple thing.

Has anyone heard of Yyrkoon70 since the karaoke? Just thought it was weird he hasn't shared his thoughts here after the event.

[Jérôme.]

As he was moving his home, maybe he has some internet problems right now (and it was golden week, so I'm not sure he was going to work)

[naddie]

Seems he's travelling around the Chuugoku region right now so that may be why he's been silent for quite a while

I don't have a group picture of anyone in front of the purple banner. Wasn't my camera.

[Jérôme.]

I'm sure we have done one. Whose camera was it ?

[Yyrkoon70]

Yep I was traveling I came home yesterday night.

Trix came home yesterday too so he should be able to share his pictures soon.

I really enjoyed the live, the setlist was great, all her most famous songs were played and she really nailed it vocally. She keeps on improving year after year on the vocal and performing part and that's a delight for us. The BD/DVD will certainly be awesome!

She performed very beautiful versions of Pilot, Yubiwa and Sono Mama De. And she really did great on powerful songs like Triangler, Hemisphere, Shikisai, ...

I wasn't thinking at all at her last Rasmus song to open the live but it was fantastic with the lights and everything. By the way, Rasmus arranged the intro for that live, he told me on Facebook.

EDIT: And Maaya was more beautiful than ever!

How long would it usually take for a live DVD to be released?
