To think that less than a year ago I thought rock was dead. Thank you to the random stranger who commented on a video I was watching about music who told me to watch Band Maid. I've now immersed myself in their catalog, experienced them live and discovered a lot more new music through them. Rock is so, SO far from dead
Hi, my name is Wayne, n I am a BM addict. It all started 7 years ago when my son caught me watching Kpop videos, ya watching. My love of rock was petering out, i founnd iit so repetit. My son said, "Dad, try out BM Thrill." Since that day, I have felt like a teenager again. I have brought 5 BM t-shirts, 2 CD's, 1 magazine that I only dared to open once.
@@waynetubrHaha!! Seems like many Band Maid fans have an interesting journey finding them…and what a find. I also have tons of shirts, music and other stuff from them. Can’t seem to get enough!!!😂😊
Yokohama Arena, 2023 -- The most personalized, nearly four hour, big stage rock concert ever! And the music, power, performances, interaction, and the surprises... like Saiki's version of Choose Me on the piano, their redesigned battle gear, and a hint of what's coming next year... ALL SUPERB! BRAVO BAND-MAID! YOU ARE DOMINATING!! As I've always said, "You think you're going there for the music; you think you're going there for the Maids; you think you're going there for the joy and excitement. But once you get to a Band-Maid concert, you realize... it's all about the love." 🎀💝🎀 Thx, Richard!
Well said! Can’t get enough of these ladies who combine everything you could want in a band and a group of great people. Their emotion spilled over to everyone in attendance and I am sure to those who watched the live stream.❤❤❤❤❤
In the big arena where they belong! I’ll be watching the whole show over the next couple of days (busy with family over Thanksgiving) but they sound soooo good in the big hall! 🔥🎸🥁🎤🎼👏🏼😎
That is Sooooo Cooool.... Thanks for posting. That is a large arena, I think holding 17,000 max capacity. Nippon Budokan seats 14,500. Not sure what the attendance was, but the Maid's put that large stage use.... MISA and Saiki went for hikes..... Ha ha.... Glad I could see this song at Yokohama.... If I had time and money I would've been there.
They love getting close to the fans and still managed that in this huge arena setup! Feel very fortunate to be able to be there and to share this song with everyone.❤❤❤
Thank you Richard for sharing how you were able to record this is amazing -love the venue and the new look Maids cheers got any more please post them -I'll be looking forward.I have subed and liked and shared.
They only allowed us to record this one song so wanted to share it with everyone. Felt very fortunate to be able to be present for this great performance!❤
@@BMCanuck Yeah someone posted Akane doing her catwalk. Very nice! Hopefully get a chance to see them next year. Once they return to Europe. Fingers crossed..
Akane had a couple of the heart felt moment of the night. That one and her final bow to the audience at the end of the show! Hope they make it back to Europe soon!
What a show to perform your first solo piano song at. All the band have reached new heights of ability and professionalism, but Saiki is always so impressive in her performances. Me thinks that this his all the work of Kanami, to improve the capabilities of the band. With Miku playing more elements of songs on the guitar- not just rhythm, and Saiki now playing piano the future looks good.
Thanks for upload. I'll need to find time to purchase and watch the concert stream. The new outfits look great, and reading the news for the next year, new album, collabs with other artists, concert for songs not played here, and an acoustic okyuji!
This show was an amazing success, and Akane finally got a proper drum solo and man is she more talented than I previously thought. Only criticism I have is how weak to audience was for how big the place was and for how many people were there, should have been waaaay louder but it was still incredible to watch. Actually gonna watch it again later today.
Yes, I just started watching the stream and agree it was much louder in person. The audiences in Japan are great with everyone singing and moving in unison.
@@johnmatthew102 I think they learned from Shibuya. But I would have pumped the ambience up 20%, especially after the song. Maybe in the final release. ;-)
@@BMCanuck That’s true since they ware more enjoying being on the stage than the audiences, GOSHUJINSAMA and OJOSAMA being there,,,it’s only how I looked^^;

Not to worry. At the end of the concert an announcement was made to look out for a full album in the middle of next year plus a second acoustic set. World domination continues!!
Not gonna praise them for their excellent performance and stagemanship-that’s a given. That’s how I completely adore these ladies. I’m just gonna comment, WOW! Footage from inside a concert in Japan? What just happened??? Also, thank you for sharing!😊
They put a message on the screen saying we could record this one song and the a message at the end to stop. It was a big surprise but great of them to allow a fan cam!!
@@lurkmerchant MGMT may just claim rights and let it stay up. They have on other material. In either case I brought the stream and will buy the Blu Ray 😁
彩ちゃんがピアノ弾き語りでやってました。ピアノがステージ中央に運ばれてきたときはみんちょがついにピアノ弾くのかと思いましたが、その予想の上を行く彩ちゃんのピアノで驚きました。 The piano version was played by Sai-chan only. When the piano was carried to the middle of the stage, I thought we could finally hear Mincho play the piano live. But the one who played the piano was Sai-chan. I didn't see that coming.

i thought that too until seeing these girls. thats when i realized rock wasnt dead, it just moved to japan.
I think a lot of us feel the same. I haven't been this invested in a band in like forever!! and now all I listen is music from the rising sun!

what a year for the Maids !!! unbelievable what they have accomplished ....best band on the planet !!!
and an arena that they deserve !!
I don't need to tell you how awesome the live stream was :)
They have worked so hard this year. You could see the emotion of it all!!
@@GaryHolloway-810 can’t wait but will have to recharge first!!
Agree, agree, agree!!!
@@BMCanuck Hey thx for uploading this. It was great to get a different perspective.😁👍
Over three hours and 30 songs of rock n roll greatness. A show for the ages.
OMG!! The maids packed 10 years of greatness into this show❤️❤️
SAIKI also did an acoustic piano version earlier in the concert. What a great show. SAIKI’s voice got stronger with each song.
Her acoustic was a total surprise and so good! I have seen her several time since 2022 and her voice during this show was the best yet!!
A long way from tiny, sweaty clubs tied to amps with 20’ cables ❤
They showed a lot of clips from those day which was funny but also very nostalgic. Their success in miraculous and deserving at the same time.

Apt, after what Jimmy Page said to Akane :D
1:22にLOVEBITESのあさみどぴーが‼️
おお！ LovebitesがBand-Maidをサポートしているのは素晴らしいことです！
Loved how they all had a walk about.
Yes, they had fun with that! They always try to get close to the fans and managed that even in this arena setup.
In the big arena where they belong! I’ll be watching the whole show over the next couple of days (busy with family over Thanksgiving) but they sound soooo good in the big hall! 🔥🎸🥁🎤🎼👏🏼😎
It was a fantastic concert. Glad you are taking your time to watch it so you can really take in everything that happened!!
This is how BAND-MAID should be seen. Im so proud of the Maids!
Me too! They are so deserving of this and even in this large arena were able to create an intimate and fun connection with the audience.
BAND-MAID... Welcome to the BIG time !
They are officially rockstars!!!❤❤
They owned the big venue
They made great use of the cat walks. Was great to watch them in an arena setting. So well deserved!
The Maids Dominated Po!!!!!🙉😻🙃🤩😊
Stellar performance!😊
Yes, no one can put on a show like the maids!
Incredible! 👍
Mincho in black I love it very hot and sexy she is so awesome ssooooo talented this is wonderful
You could tell she loved it. They all looked great!!
Damn, that’s a huge stage setup. So happy for the ladies!
And so well deserved. We are all lucky to witness this band and group of 5 great ladies give their all for us and each other!!❤❤❤
So nice to see the Maids performing on a big stage. They are natural arena rockers. Ten years gone, many more to come! Well done ladies.
Well said! They are an awesome band😊❤!
They will keep going for another 10 years for sure!
Can't wait for the new album next summer!!

ありがとう
彼らがこの一曲を録音することを許可してくれたのは幸運でした。みんなと動画を共有できて嬉しかったです。❤😊
Sooo, perfect, the queen of rock being protected by a trained assaian.
Good one!!! They made great use of the cat walk!!
1:22 Lovebites members were in the audience. From the man in red in front of Kanami to the right, it seems to be Asami, Haruna (hat), and Midori.
I think Peter Lim from Maid News Network confirmed that and said hi to them!
衣装が新デザインだぞ～！
はい、彼らの新しい衣装は美しかったです！❤😊
Mincho's costume looked like a chief maid.
Thanks for a great video and song❤
Felt very fortunate to attend. What a wonderful concert!!❤❤
撮影していいって言われても見るのに夢中で撮れなかったから嬉しい😂楽しかったですね！！！！
嬉しい驚きでした！そのためにそこにいるのはなんと楽しいことでしょう。素晴らしいショーと楽しい!!❤❤❤
Love it!
What a show! They got quite emotional and nostalgic about their 10 years together.
Love It! What a vast Arena. Last gig I went to like that, was U2.. Anyway thanks for sharing buddie.
And they still managed to get close to the fans when ever they could!!❤❤

@@BMCanuckShe'll probably improve over the next few years and add another layer to the Maid sound.
It will be interesting to see how they continue to evolve. One of the big reasons they are such a great band!

Thanks a lot!!!
Was so happy they allowed us the share this song! Couldn’t keep up with all the action haha!

I was there and the crowd was actually really good and super loud, you just couldn’t hear it from the stream.
Yes, I just started watching the stream and agree it was much louder in person. The audiences in Japan are great with everyone singing and moving in unison.
And I think having the audience mics turned down improved the sound quality of the live stream. It was surprisingly crisp.
Guaranteed they raise the audience volume in post-production.
@@johnmatthew102 I think they learned from Shibuya. But I would have pumped the ambience up 20%, especially after the song. Maybe in the final release. ;-)

You are welcome. Was surprised they let us record it. They really made good use of the cat walks.
お疲れ様です。ただいま群馬帝国に帰還しました🎉

どのくらい入ったのでしょうか、さすがに３階席までは埋まらなかったようですが、行けなかったのが本当に悔しいです。

BAND-MAIDは好きで曲作りも素晴らしいとは思いますが自分は音楽ライブにおいてはお金をやたらかけたり派手な演出はいらない派なのでこれを見て複雑な気持ちです。花道はあってもいいとは思いますが広い会場ゆえにやたら花道が長かったり極端な話しライブハウスのような小さな所でもバンドの個性と曲がしっかりしていれば横浜アリーナのような立派な会場じゃなくても観ていて面白いものです。某音楽プロデューサーが昔こんな事をいってましたが舞台の装置をみて僕はいくらお金がかかってるかわかると言ってましたが音楽プロデューサーなのに内容じゃなくそこかい！と思ってました。個人的には音楽ライブは舞台や演出にいくらお金をかけたのではなく内容の濃さだと思っていますので。彼女達のように有名になり出世するとまわりに色んな人がつくのでこうゆう立派な会場で少し過剰な演出もしょうがないのかも知れません。今後彼女達の個性が奪われないことを願うばかりです。
このイベントは主に過去10年間に彼らが達成したことを祝うことが目的だったと思いますが、これを行うには大きなアリーナが必要でした。これからももっと小さな会場でファンとの距離を近くしてライブをしてくれると思います!!
現地にいたけど、アリーナでも相変わらずBAND-MAIDらしさ全開で最高のライブでした！
100%同意します！参加した人たちにとってもバンドメンバーにとっても魔法のような体験だったと思います。
日本人は撮影許可されたら、撮影しかしないですｗ
皆さんも写真がないほうがコンサートを楽しめると思います。 10周年記念フィナーレに参加するために日本に来ることができてとても楽しかったです!!
Audience appears to be 100% men.
Was more like 80%, but it’s no different from any other hard rock/metal show.
There were more women there than I had thought. Some of them seemed to me to be in their twenties or thirties.
Oh, no more than 99% haha! There actually were a fair number of princesses but everyone kinda dressed the same as it was so cold and damp today.
