That was just f'n amazing. 55 years of seeing rock bands and never seen anything like this- So precious. Just love these ladies to bits. How can you not. (UK)
I really don’t want to brag cuz I hate people like that. But I really wanted to say this cuz nothing like this has ever happened to me before. I was the person who shouted go Hanshin Tigers and I was also the one wearing the Ohtani jersey. It was so surreal to have Saiki address me like that. Interactions like that is what makes the maids the greatest band on the face of the earth!!!
@@shamalamadingdong5718 It really was so cool!! I also wanted to thank u so much for getting this vid as well. I wasn’t recording so I was really worried this moment would get lost in time. U really have no idea what it means to me that u got this.
@@evofilms4395 I am so glad that I was able to capture this then. I am grateful for your comment. It is nice to know that some of my footage makes other people happy.
@@shamalamadingdong5718 Again, it really means a lot to me and Ik it makes everyone in the fanbase so happy to be able to see this. Again thank u so much.
@@shamalamadingdong5718 7 Okyujis! I saw only 1 one man show last year in NJ. Then saw Band-Maid open up for TLRS but only played 4 songs. So my next Okyuji is Anaheim CA on 8/15th. If Saiki & Kanami ask me, Do I count their opening act show as 1 okyuji? 🤔
Thanks for uploading this great video ! Domo arigato Dingdong-San ! This was such a fun show. You could really tell they were sincere and having fun ! Another city conquered by the Maids ! I hope the crowd size was enough incentive for them to come back next tour.
It was definitely a lot of fun. There were more people there than a handful of shows on the last tour so there is a chance they go back one day. Knowing them they will go to Louisville Kentucky next time because they haven't been there before. Haha
@shamalamadingdong5718 I was very happy about that and happy for the Band. They went around Mid South last time. Needed to show them the love so they come back. They looked rested, relaxed, and put on a great Omajinai time for sure. Thanks for video 👍
Miku's ability to interact with the crowd and put her own MC show on during the set. Has definitely rubbed off on the other ladies over the years. I wouldn't be surprised if Miku was the one that orchestrated and suggested. That the others take more of a leading role in doing this kind of interaction. I mean it was her vision that put this band together to start.
It was really nice to see Michelle again. She has real heart and soul---such a genuine appreciation. Must have made her day when Kanami herself greeted her !
Love it! I'm jealous still that they didn't do Florida while here last year lol. I just saw them at Rockville in Daytona Beach and I just sort of assumed that they would get more and more popular to where they might not come back to the states and do these more small venue, more personal shows.
@@shamalamadingdong5718 100% agree with you Shamalama! You and I share the same desire to see more people get exposed to the music and band in general, and also that those of us who are firmly in the fandom have access to see our many times favorite band lol, live in person.
So you got to witness the "All gutter" Omajinai time, Shamalama! That's going to go down as one of the all-time great ones, right up there with the "Misa nose hole" incident and the time all of them had a go at the drum kit. I forget, are you going to the Minneapolis show in August? I've booked my trip and bought my concert ticket for that one. That's only a 500-capacity club, so it should be a ton of fun!
Yes I was able to witness the hilariousness. You never know what they are going to do next. I am not sure about the Minneapolis show. I don't think I will be able to fit it into my schedule. 😭 it will be a fantastic time and it is awesome that you are going. I know someone will have some cool videos to watch though.
@@shamalamadingdong5718 Sorry it might not work for you but totally understand. I tried really hard to reschedule my travel/schedule so that I could go to Nashville but just couldn't make it work. I'll probably take some videos in Minneapolis. I didn't take any in Austin just because I wanted to be completely in the moment the first time I saw them perform as headliners.
She was the first one Saiki gave the mic to. I was right by the second one Saiki gave it to. Miku gave me a pick at this show, too. Every time I see them they manage to exceed my already high expectations. Easily the best band I've ever seen or heard.
I met Saiki at a meet n greet in LA 2018 and thought she appeared a bit cold but more because of being shy, she is now grown into this warm personality that's far from Ice, what a great front person she grew into.
That was entertaining and fun, I just hope we have a fellow maidiac who is fluent in Japanese who could translate the last 3 mins of the video. Should’ve taken that nihongo for business class back in ‘08!😅
@@shamalamadingdong5718 I just want to say thank you for uploading the video. Your vids are a great help to folks like me whose countries aren’t on Band-Maid’s tour radar.☺️ we also feel the energy and the good vibes!
The people next to me made it seem like Daisuke went so he asked if Saiki went also but it sounds like they were watching it on TV but she didn't know which team it was. I honestly have no idea. Haha
@@shamalamadingdong5718 Hrm. My reply got eaten by RUclips. Daisuke posted on his social media that he had gone to see the Mariners v. Braves game on Saturday. Some folks had wondered if Saiki had gone with him since she's a big baseball fan, but apparently he went with another member of the support staff. Saiki asks him who he went to see, and he first mentioned the Mariners. It's not surprising he's a Mariner's fan; they have been popular in Japan ever since Ichiro Suzuki played there.
That was just f'n amazing. 55 years of seeing rock bands and never seen anything like this- So precious. Just love these ladies to bits. How can you not. (UK)
Absolutely awesome, these interactions are just priceless. Thank you for sharing the content!

No other band interacts with their audience like this 😊❤
This is true. Not to this extent anyway.
The most extraordinary band on the planet. The most extraordinary talented musicians. A unique and wonderful combination.
I will not argue with you. Haha. I always feel energized when I see them.
Saiki early was very shy, hiding as the Ice Queen and Kanami has really changed. Love this band!!
They just keep growing abd evolving. Such a unique experience.
Audience "MISA, will you marry me?"
SAIKI: "No, I won't give it to you; MISA is ours."
I'll ask again the next time I see them.
🤣🤣🤣 Saiki is hilarious.
This is better than any old meet and greet
Is it? 😂
Another awesome fun Q&A time!
Yeah it was a lot of fun. Kanami kept asking me how many times I have seen them so I finally shouted out seven! 😂
@@shamalamadingdong5718 7 Okyujis! I saw only 1 one man show last year in NJ. Then saw Band-Maid open up for TLRS but only played 4 songs. So my next Okyuji is Anaheim CA on 8/15th. If Saiki & Kanami ask me, Do I count their opening act show as 1 okyuji? 🤔
@@UncleYoshi i think seeing them live counts. Obviously it is a completely different experience but in my mind you have seen them twice. 😁
@@shamalamadingdong5718 ok 👌 Anaheim will be okyuji #3 👍🏻

What a fun video!
They are so entertaining.
Kanami slays me.....like she has a split personality....one for lead guitar.... another for talking to the audience...po....
It really amazes me because I just stand there thinking ,"Is this really the same woman who just blew my hair back 5min ago with her blistering solo?"
Daisuke, sugoi, Po! ❤🔥🏍
I was there center floor 10 feet from stage behind girl Saiki talked to. GREAT SHOW 👍 ❤
It really was an amazing show! The crowd was into it so that was great!
@shamalamadingdong5718 I was very happy about that and happy for the Band. They went around Mid South last time. Needed to show them the love so they come back. They looked rested, relaxed, and put on a great Omajinai time for sure. Thanks for video 👍
@@gmcjetpilot Omajinai time was hilarious. I have been watching clips people took of that. I could never get tired of watching them. You are welcome.
4:04 Akane's reaction to Michelle 😍
She is well known for sure.
Miku's ability to interact with the crowd and put her own MC show on during the set. Has definitely rubbed off on the other ladies over the years. I wouldn't be surprised if Miku was the one that orchestrated and suggested. That the others take more of a leading role in doing this kind of interaction.

It very well could have been. I know I enjoy it when they all get involved.
good job @MichelleGT , I was standing right behind you hoping Saki was gonna walk up to you, another one for you records
I thought it was cool also. After the show Kanami walked up to her and Michelle handed her a gift. It was precious.
It was really nice to see Michelle again. She has real heart and soul---such a genuine appreciation. Must have made her day when Kanami herself greeted her !
Kanami has a cartoon like voice 😁
I wanted to go so badly...!!
Thanks for posting
Too bad you didn't get to go. Glad you enjoyed this.
Hi number ✌, nice video! Would it be okay if I use a short clip of your video to the one I'm going to edit? Thanks!
Absolutely! Use whatever you like. I can't wait to see your video!
Michelle, were you one of the ones that Saiki handed the mic to?
@@shamalamadingdong5718 Yay, thanks so much! I just finished uploading. I added your video link in the description 😄👍
@@Metal_Auditor Yes! I'm so grateful for that moment and for what they do🙌🎶
@@MichelleGT yeah, I just saw that you posted your video, and I’m about to go watch it. I thought I recognized your voice.
I like how Akane is just eating a banana😁🍌
Love it! I'm jealous still that they didn't do Florida while here last year lol. I just saw them at Rockville in Daytona Beach and I just sort of assumed that they would get more and more popular to where they might not come back to the states and do these more small venue, more personal shows.
We shall see. These venues seem to be the right size for now but they need to bee seen by more people.

@@shamalamadingdong5718
Even One Ok Rock does these sized venues when they tour here.
In fact, they’ve played some of the same venues.
😁
This is cool
did they play hate, one and only, blooming, warning, secret my lips and finished with endles story what a setlist! best so far imo
It was amazing! So many songs that we didn't hear back in October.

@@mightydegu Nice! Their picks always fly over my head. Haha. They do seem to keep getting better and better each time
Hey, can you send me the file for this video? I want to use the clip where I proposed on my social media.
Any suggestions on how to send it? I have no idea what the best option would be.
@@shamalamadingdong5718 maybe sharing through Google Drive or using mega? How big is the file?
@@shamalamadingdong5718 I figured it out, used the screen recorder on my phone. Want me to post the link for credit when I share the clip?
@@TacticalBaconPatches Awesome that you figured it out. You don't have to give credit but I would like to see it when you post it.
Urayamashii➰✨
"Ice queen" they said ...
I think she has thawed out some
I could never call her that before but the past few years should put that to rest.
I met Saiki at a meet n greet in LA 2018 and thought she appeared a bit cold but more because of being shy, she is now grown into this warm personality that's far from Ice, what a great front person she grew into.
@@harryshaw9584 I met her at the Bochum meet & greet 2019 and easily made her laugh, so I already knew that "ice queen" melts easily 🙂
@@realdocloco How about "Cool Queen?" Cool like the Fonz lol. The cool kid who would befriend a nerd....
That was entertaining and fun, I just hope we have a fellow maidiac who is fluent in Japanese who could translate the last 3 mins of the video.

It’s so hard.
So, did they go to a Braves game, or maybe just watch on TV?
