This video should be shared with whoever wants to know what it means to see Band-Maid live. It’s got all the elements (except Miku and Misa blocked by the pillar).
@@chrisbergsten1429 Kanami... Being so close to her for two hours completely changed my feeling about her. Previously, I was appreciating her, so to say, theoretically. My real crush was Misa. But during those two hours, Kanami occupied a huge place in my heart. She is really, really, really great. Not only as a musician, but also as a person. May God bless her in all her endeavors.
Vlad, this is simply a superb video! I'll be seeing the Maids live for the first time at the Zepp Haneda shows (25th and 26th Nov). Watching this performance makes me want to hop on the plane right now!!! 🤘🤘💕💕
Yes, it was an amazing OKYUJI, that's for sure. Such a tiny club, hot as hell. The locals call it "Hamburg's loudest sauna" 🙂 But the atmosphere was so incredibly intimate, it seemed like we were fused together with BAND-MAID in one cohesive whole, where nobody understands anymore who's playing the music and who's listening to it. Oh, unforgettable experience! Shout some extra shouts for me at the OKYUJI in Japan! I wish you a few truly hunky-dory days in the Land of the Rising Sun! In the Land of the Maids! 😍
Lost in music doesn't begin to describe it. Kanami is a pure rock machine. They say she is not technically perfect! Oh really. She plays with her soul and is the most prolific riff machine in the business. When she and Band Maid play they bring supreme happiness to all. Bless them for the treasures they are.
I also don't understand when some guitarists say that Kanami is not technically perfect. I think it's because her style is unusual. She's really not reminding us of anyone else, as Ryan Mear put it. So, it may seem to some musicians that she's playing "incorrectly," and they interpret it as a deficiency. In reality, Kanami is just a phenomenon of different proportions. She's not "a guitarist" in a usual sense of the word. She could better be described as a composer and a mastermind behind the band. She's not just doing her thing of playing the guitar, she puts every other member in place, and she makes a lot of room for them to insert their own pieces of the whole tapestry which is a BAND-MAID song. Despite being the mastermind of it all, she takes her 20% of the whole and does it perfectly. But then some professional guitarists frown and say, "Kanami is not perfect." Because if they would be in her place, they would try to steal the show completely, fighting with the other band members for greater exposure...
@@markhunter8554 Lack of understanding, I would rather say. The reason why there are so few good bands, is that many people who are musicians by profession, don't really understand what is music. It's a highly technical field of human endeavours, no doubt. That's why it's so easy to be absorbed with technicalities. "Oh, he played it this way, and then this way, he's a great musician!" While in reality, it was just an amazing show of skills and no music. On the other hand, there are many people who are very musically-minded, but who are not good at any instrument. Miku is like that. Her mind works very well when it comes to composition and harmonies, but it took her years before she mastered the guitar. Now she gradually turns into a very interesting guitar player with her own style, just listen to "hatofull" album. In BAND-MAID, she was always doing those dual vocal things, which are quite unique. They were unique in MAID in JAPAN times, and they are unique in Unseen World, albeit different. But as far as the rest of BAND-MAID is concerned, they are perfect musicians in every sense of the word, i.e they are both musically minded and technically proficient. It was funny how Saiki commented in her interview for the Unseen World Score Book: "Kanami's fingers now move so fast it looks disgusting." 😂
@@VladimirChupin As far as what you said about Miku, it reminded me of something George Martin wrote in his memoir. In essence he wrote that there are incredible musicians who are not songwriters and some songwriters who don't even play an instrument (if memory serves he mentioned Lionel Bart as an example).
So well said, I'll translate it: Thanks to the contributor for posting valuable live footage. In Japan, BAND-MAID is still a minor existence, but I believe in becoming a full-fledged Budokan over time. The more you know, the more you hear, and the more you hear it, the more you become addicted.
OMG! THIS BAND! Just when you think you have watched enough clips to figure them out... then you stumble across this :O Holy CR@P! This is phenomenal, this is leveled up +100! This is what we loved about the club sets of the up and coming hard rock bands in the 80's... but SO much better!
The support and respect Band Maid members show to one another is beautiful and inspiring to see! Gotta love these beautiful ladies, both as musicians, and for their exemplary character.
Yes, it was a wonderful night! 🤘 The whole show was amazing. It was hot like in a sauna, but BAND-MAID made us forget about the heat, they have filled us with energy from a different world!
One of the best rock bands today I think. So much energy to their music, seems like a blast to see them in concert. Every time I watch these girls I'm blown away how good they are as musicians.
Of all the live fan cam footages I've seen so far, this one is my favorite. It's so up close and personal, the sound is raw and racy in the best kind of way. Thanks for this amazing footage. It must have been an amazing experience to be there in person.
Definitely 🙂 That OKYUJI was amazing. We all felt like that extreme heat was fusing us together, the band and the audience became one. It was an incredible experience. This will probably never be repeated, because BAND-MAID is getting bigger, and the 200-strong venues are a thing of the past...
I just noticed (watching this video I don't know how many times lol) that at 1:56 Miku played the part that Kanami usually does. If that can happen more often if would really free up Kanami to do even more brilliant playing. And Kanami tickling Misa's chin at 10:27 was priceless.
I'm really happy, that they did again proof, that Rock 'n' Roll will never die. Awsome musicians and such a good show. You can see how much fun they have, one of the things which makes a band great. And I hope I will never see anymore a comment, that you cannot understand the lyrics. No need for it.
Same for me 🙂 I even have it as a "Live CD" in my audio player. The sound was good enough to listen to it just like a live album. Bartoz Glowacki even created a CD cover art for it 🙂
Brilliant video. I love all these incredibly talented ladies, but to get front seat to Kanami was a gift. Her composing is as good as it gets. Her riffs tell a story as much as the lyrics do. I love listening and watching the masters play, I get the same feeling when Kanami plays. And I never tire of how the band interacts with each other. Thank you for uploading. Cheers from an Aussie fan.
Its so amazing to see so much talent squeezed on the the tiny stage of a venue so divey there's a pillar in the middle of the stage. Yet these ladies take it in stride, rock like they're in a major stadium, sounding great and smiling the whole time.
Yes, I know--it's impressive that they just go out and do their stadium show vibe kicking major ass! It's beautiful how nothing phases them--they just conquer whatever is in front of them WHEREVER they are!! Same with their online shows these days.
@@johnmiezejewski81 Definitely! They remind me of Cream in 1966, albeit different genre of music, they match Cream's creativity and virtuosity. I admire so much about Kanami, Misa and Akane, I could write all day about them. Also like how they support each other, including Miku and Saiki, on stage. Beautiful to watch that!
Incredible band. Awesome! To me, Band Maid and Love Bites are the most exciting bands in the world today. I'm a 70 year old Texas cowboy......Blessings from Texas!
I lived in Oklahoma so I'll forgive you for being from Texas. Seriously, gonna give you another band to check out...Aldious. I don't think you'll be disappointed.
@@johnmiezejewski81 Right on, John, Aldious is another great Japanese band, indeed. So is Love Bites, D Drive and the young trio, Asterism. All feature awesome young women on guitar. As one reviewer asked, "What do they feed these young female musicians in Japan?" To me, Japanese bands are the best in the entire world now. I despise rap, and hope the beautiful master musician ladies of Japan can indeed take over the music industry, world wide.
I have seen many Bands live BUT and this is a huge BUT, I have never seen a Band as good as Band-Maid live! The energy these Girls put on stage is amazing and you can always see how much fun they have and how much they love what they are doing. No matter how many songs they play the perfection is always on top! Gosh I love these Ladies.... (fun fact! Watch the Girls drinking Water in the Beginning while Misa first takes her Beer^^ and then the Water)
You may wish to download the originals before crazy RIAJ blocks all these videos! They remove one video in approximately two a three months, absolutely randomly. I don't know, they may decide to remove them all one day... 🙄
I was there, stood in the first row. This was the best 2 hours of my life. Thanks for uploading this awesome Show. Now i can enjoy it every Time and the good feelings come back! :)
Well back again, wish they would let me like it everytime I visit,hoping for a Band-Maid European tour in 2024,I also hope you and family are well,till next time.
This vid just makes me..... smile. Sure it's a phone cap, but the energy, the interplay between the band members, the interplay with the audience, Kanami just destroying it, the laughter, and the skill, oh the skill. I love this band so much, having a blast and rockin the joint to the ground. October, the Dallas show, I will experience this thrill. Yeah!!!!!!!!
This morning I was able to re-schedule my appointment for a US visa interview! I'll go to the Consulate this Tuesday! Initially, they have given me a slot on October 20, 2023 🤦♂ Yes, twenty-three! It seems somebody cancelled his or her appointment, and the slot was released. So, maybe I'll see you in Dallas, then! 🤘 I was so disappointed that I would not be able to see the girls in the first post-COVID US tour, but now, it seems, there is a good chance for that!
@@VladimirChupin That is awesome!!!! I'll be the older pot bellied dude in a headband and a Kanami shirt. If you see me, please introduce yourself to me. I'd love for me and my wife to meet you! See you in Dallas!
I'm glad they seemed to have so much fun! The stage was so tiny, it must have been hard moving around, on top of how hot it was in there. They still rocked our faces off with so much energy and joy :D
3 of my favorite songs in a row. 😃💕Akane kills on drums and she soloed. I loved Akane swaying to the music of Kanami's cool guitar solo. Miku is playing well and with much more confidence. Saiki seems to having a lot of fun. This was well filmed and the girls sound great. Thanks for posting this gem of a performance!
Absolutely fantastic! Never seen Band-Maid live, unfortunately, but this is the closest it gets. I feel I'm right there. And what a wonderful performance!
That was unexpected for all of them. Watch Kanami's face just before that moment. She looks at Saiki, as if asking her, "What do you want, my beloved? I have something for you, you'll like it," and than says "Europa" with her guitar. Priceless.
The Moratorium part with Kanami’s solo intro (7:15) would justify a video by itself! These girls are just having fun while creating a masterpiece... 0:26: eye contact plus smile to the camera man... 8:56: proud Saiki hiding in the corner to let her baby shine. 9:15: the baby is going crazy...
It has been a little more than a month since that glorious night in Hamburg and I keep coming back to this video almost on a daily basis... this is pure gold!!!
Wow Vladimir,,,,so good you have done an Awsome job for the fans,,,to see that great solo from Akane was brilliant then bang Kanami takes the stage & just Rocks out ,,well oh wow ,,I hope Jimmy Page & Carlos Santana view this ,,just a great job ,,thank you so much ,,,❤️❤️❤️🎸🇳🇿Robby Aus.
Amazing vid.... thank you so much! Shows so much more than the girls playing... all the smiling and the interaction with each other, and Akane’s drum solo! Love it! The New York show cant come fast enough!
This is so much fun to watch...they all seem to be having the time of their lives...great to see Kanami so up close and personal with a grin on her face a mile wide throughout. And of course Saiki playing the crowd like a marionette...so awesome. This has me extra pumped up for NYC in Sept. Thanks Vlad!!
Vladimir, thank you , you are doing God's work. This band is the hope of rock and roll. I saw them live one time and it was life-changing. I imagine you have saved up enough points to live 500 years.
Thanks so much for uploading this Vladmir. For those of us who can't get to see Band Maid this year, it at least gives us a flavour of what Band Maid are bringing to the table. As I am a big Kanami fan, you were perfectly placed :-)
I may be wrong, but I think this video will become a kind of Band-Maid classic, showing how they totally rock the stage. And it should be a rock lesson for any aspiring rock band prior to get on stage!
Already 23 thousand views, and counting. Oh man... I fully agree. It turned to be probably the best piece out of the whole concert. Three of their best songs, plus Akane's solo, plus Kanami's solo... Incredible.
Какие же они классные!! :Д просто невероятные!! ну как их не любить?! :Д боже мой Канами?! что ты творишь с этой гитарой?! продолжай :Д обожаю этих девчонок! как бы хотелось к ним на концерт попасть, ну хоть бы раз в Киев заглянули! эх... крутяжки!!
Who's here after watching Vladimir's 2022 BANDMAID US TOUR videos? Holy Sh## you're so damn close to the Rock Queens. Great stuff. Sounds frkn incredible!!!!!!!Need more KANAMI SOLOS!!!!!
I checked the statistics, and actually, the views for this video dropped by 50% when I started uploading the new videos from the US Tour. Clearly, people switched to the newer stuff.
From Japan I'm amazed that a BAND-MAID video has been uploaded to RUclips in Japan by sponsor Vladimir Chupin. Thank you for spreading the wonderful live footage. BAND-MAID may be the only band with such dedicated fans. And this may be the first attempt by a fan. Thank you!
Yeah, I thought, why not 🙂 It's a direct help from the fans to their WORLD DOMINATION. I see that the videos actually get thousands of views through the advertisement. I hope more people will know BAND-MAID through this promotion!
The performance is one thing, it's f* AMAZING! But holy shit, you're standing soo close!! My god. This must have been such an intimate and good feeling concert :D Wish I had discovered B-M back then but only found them 3 days ago :'( Hoping to see them live once touring starts up again! Thank you for making me feel like I was there
Thanks for being with me at this show! 🤘 Yes, being so close to BAND-MAID at a concert is a life-changing experience. Their energy just flowed through me, changing me in some very profound way...
The Band Maid supporter part of me wishes they could play much bigger venues to get more exposure. The selfish part of me is glad they still play venues like this sometimes. Even when they reach the level of recognition they deserve I hope they continue to do so. Besides, they truly seem to be having a blast.
Ken100, I understand 100% what you meant. This clip reminded me again how much they appreciate and treasure the opportunities where they can perform in front of the real Goshujin-sama and Ojou-sama no matter of the space size or qualities of the facilities they are provided. I'm proud of them. They are real artists.
It seems to be a garage but it is a well known institution in Hamburg for over 40 years. And because it is so tiny audience and musicians love it. It creates a privat atmosphere as you can see in the video. The audience is only one feet away from the stage and I feel blessed that I was part of it. Small selection of bands who played there: Jango Edwards Halloween Warlock Philipp Boa & The Voodoo Club Canned Heat Kathrina & The Waves Manic Street Preachers The Verve H Blockx Alex Harvey Band Rammstein Mouse On Mars Skunk Anansi Cardigans No Doubt Ugly Kid Joe Nada Surf Dr. Feelgood Blink 182 Slipknot Lemonbabies Papa Roach Queens Of The Stoneage Disturbed The Hives .... and so on, and so on. 15-20 gigs every month since 1974!
@@showgee it will happen. www.inkcarceration.com In Mansfield on July 11th at the Ohio State Reformatory. This festival drew 40,000 last year. And they appear on a Netflix production of Kate portraying themselves. That will further expose them to thousands more.
First, thank you Vladimir for posting this video. I lost track how many times I've watched it! There are so many great parts in this video, but my favorite part is at about 10:08 right after Mincho's solo as they're kicking into Moratorium. The look and smile on Sai-chan's face is just happy overload awesomeness! So cool every time I see it.
Vlad you have outdone yourself! Thank you very much for posting all these from their European World Domination tour, excellent quality. I have a ticket to their Dallas show and intend to study these for reference;-) I appreciated your Misa vantage before but Kamani steals the show with her solo before Moratorium. I love how they all react to it. Beautiful women, great personalities, technical wizardry, tasteful music, and "service" uniforms Japan should declare them a national treasure. But what I really love about them is how they love one other & have fun!
While being in Hamburg, I stayed with my sister who lives there. The day after the show, we watched the Queen movie, and afterwards I've shown them the Bubble MV. I have never seen this Queen movie before, but I knew, of course, that Bubble is a tribute to Freddy Mercury. It was great to finally see all the references to the movie the girls have inserted into Bubble MV. I think the greatest thing about that movie and about Bubble is that feeling of unity of the band, which is highlighted so strongly. In the same way as Queen was great when they were united, BAND-MAID feels the same way. Kanami seems to think about it a lot, maybe as a result of Queen movie and Bubble. In her interview in GIGS Magazine she says that BAND-MAID is the cause of her life, and even if she ever starts writing songs for other bands, or playing as a guest musician in other projects, BAND-MAID is forever central to her. And during her recent report on the European tour, she says she shared a room with Akane, and again she thought to herself, "What great people we are, getting along so easily, and being so friendly to each other!"
@@VladimirChupin I think of the music business as a corrosive acid on bands' personnel. And when I discovered Band-Maid they had been in the business for awhile. But what struck me about them was their cohesiveness. I saw an interview with the whole band and of course I don't understand Japanese but the personalities were just fascinating and enchanting. I couldn't tell how much was "put on" or real since they do have a great sense of humor. So when they started on Kamani's devotion to Saiki and how she appreciated Saiki tying her bow etc I thought she's just joshing but after watching more interviews performances and the music videos you begin to appreciate Kamani's earnestness about all things. I love how she jams with band members and how the others appreciate her attention. I have seen Saiki adjusting her head piece for her during a performance in one of your videos and it shows the affection for her. I also like how during her solo before Moratorium you gave us a view of Saiki just beaming at her. I also love how Kamani gets all up in the audience before she retreats back to Akane! Your Hamburg footage is just great even with the sixth member of the band blocking the view of Kobata & Misa. It's only Rock & Roll but I like it. Thanks again! ruclips.net/video/YzWETTu-4iE/видео.html
Your my spirit animal Vlad, you have been to more than one BM show, and been so close to these Subarashii artists, I'd be remiss if i didn't say i was jealous, and that your 1 of the luckiest SOBs on the firkin planet!
Beside my admiration for their personalities and musicianship I´m glad about the fact, that they don´t change their instruments after every second song. Look at the effect-boards on the floor and together with the technician at the PA they can create the sound which fits. Nice to see that they tune the instruments by themselves.
There was that guy, a musician... what's his name... Axe Japan! He said in his video about Kanami's guitar rig, that she has some pedals, which help her to retune her guitar on-the-fly, without the need to change it. Probably you refer to that video, right? ruclips.net/video/YBhf-PUECtk/видео.html
If you check the videos for their concerts in Japan which are on DVD you'll notice both Miku and Kanami change their guitars. The fact they don't on tour is more down to the fact they can only carry one guitar with them when flying ?
@@thomasrotweiler Yes, I also thought the same. Last year, Aeroflot has lost their luggage, when they were flying from Moscow to Helsinki, and Kanami had to run around the city musical shops in order to rent a PRS guitar. She said, they found only some very old vintage one for her, and she had to play it during the concert. No such luxury as changing guitars during a concert on tour...
Vlad, I happened to be at the show in Helsinki, but it took me a while B4 comprehending what Kanami was trying to explain in 'English 'why she had to play the vintage PRS found at a local shop in Helsinki instead of her own. And I'm a Japanese fan, lol. twitter.com/kanami_bandmaid/status/1063139053812547584?lang=en

Well whoever hates Miku and Misa will probably love this video. Lol. The sound is a little bit screwed up though.
Kanami is on fire...best band around in 2022 .
ただ見せるだけじゃなくてお客さんと一緒に楽しんで盛り上げていけるPLAYが出来るって凄い。これは本当に凄い事だと思います。
2014年頃のライブなど、やはり小さな箱から這い上がってきたバンドですよね。場の作り方と流れ、会場との一体感が凄い。
Kanami looks so happy.
She is a beautiful soul.
Same as Akane!
Gotta love her!

貴重なライブ映像を投稿してくれた投稿者に感謝します。
日本国内ではバンドメイドはまだマイナーな存在ですが、そのうちに武道館を満員にする存在になると信じて応援しています。知れば知るほど聞けば聞くほどにシビレてしまい、今では中毒になっています。
So well said, I'll translate it:
Thanks to the contributor for posting valuable live footage.
In Japan, BAND-MAID is still a minor existence, but I believe in becoming a full-fledged Budokan over time. The more you know, the more you hear, and the more you hear it, the more you become addicted.
This band need to be world-wide famous. Its a crime almost nobody know them outside japan. A crime against the god of rock himself.
This is almost unreal they should be superstars and they are playing in small venues...This band deserves way more attention
Patience. The Maids won't quit driving towards the goal of World domination. And neither will we.
I would have loved to have been there. So cool
Amen and right on! They are that good!

I still recall this show as the most impressive thing I have experienced in my life.
On August 17th,I went to a concert in Osaka,Japan. I am convinced that they are the number1 hard rock band in the world.
We all wholeheartedly agree 🤘
Kanami has a beautiful smile.
She's adorable in every way, as well as being a KICK ASS guitarist!
Akane's & Misa's reactions to Kanami's Moratorium solo are priceless and it just shows how much they all enjoy being on stage together.
The support and respect Band Maid members show to one another is beautiful and inspiring to see! Gotta love these beautiful ladies, both as musicians, and for their exemplary character.
Kanamie just shreds that guitar -She is truly a Queen of Rock-as are all these ladies -They have earned my greatest respect
もっと売れてほしい
超ワイルドにソロしても、みんなに頭ナデナデされちゃうのが、みんちょらしくて微笑ましいですね(^o^)
Even if KANAMI solos very wildly, it's smiley member can touch her head.
Saiki has such a unique voice. Powerful yet soft.
She's my favorite singer. 😄
the BEST BAND ON EARTH!
True! 🤘
1000%
And a few other planets!!!
Dude. Sick video! I love being able to watch without all the cuts of the regular concert footage!
Yes, it was a wonderful night! 🤘 The whole show was amazing. It was hot like in a sauna, but BAND-MAID made us forget about the heat, they have filled us with energy from a different world!

Most of the people seem to be deaf on both ears...

I think Hamburg is my favorite of all fancam lives. They were on freaking 🔥!

Its so amazing to see so much talent squeezed on the the tiny stage of a venue so divey there's a pillar in the middle of the stage. Yet these ladies take it in stride, rock like they're in a major stadium, sounding great and smiling the whole time.
Yes, I know--it's impressive that they just go out and do their stadium show vibe kicking major ass! It's beautiful how nothing phases them--they just conquer whatever is in front of them WHEREVER they are!! Same with their online shows these days.
I love this video and I love the comments here. Of course BAND-MAID. Everything is full of love.
Thank you very much Vladimir Chupin.
Glad that you've found it enjoyable :-) That was a memorable night indeed... Full of love and excitement.
Kanami is so good at guitar. I'm legitimately jealous of her skill.
I could watch Kanami tear that PRS up for HOURS!! Mad respect for everyone else in the band, but as a guitarist, she speaks my language.
So right on
Spot on assessment of Kanami & her great skills but I'm a bass player & we can agree to disagree. I feel the same way regarding MISA.
@@johnmiezejewski81 So true. Misa is amazing, also, as is Akane on drums. Band Maid is an exceptionally talented group, for sure.
@@Lpmgato1 Said it before & I'll say it again...Kanami, MISA & Akane could be one of the best power trios...ever!
@@johnmiezejewski81 Definitely! They remind me of Cream in 1966, albeit different genre of music, they match Cream's creativity and virtuosity. I admire so much about Kanami, Misa and Akane, I could write all day about them. Also like how they support each other, including Miku and Saiki, on stage. Beautiful to watch that!
Incredible band. Awesome! To me, Band Maid and Love Bites are the most exciting bands in the world today. I'm a 70 year old Texas cowboy......Blessings from Texas!
I lived in Oklahoma so I'll forgive you for being from Texas. Seriously, gonna give you another band to check out...Aldious. I don't think you'll be disappointed.
@@johnmiezejewski81 Right on, John, Aldious is another great Japanese band, indeed. So is Love Bites, D Drive and the young trio, Asterism. All feature awesome young women on guitar. As one reviewer asked, "What do they feed these young female musicians in Japan?" To me, Japanese bands are the best in the entire world now. I despise rap, and hope the beautiful master musician ladies of Japan can indeed take over the music industry, world wide.
Thanks Vladimir! You are the best!!
I have seen many Bands live BUT and this is a huge BUT, I have never seen a Band as good as Band-Maid live! The energy these Girls put on stage is amazing and you can always see how much fun they have and how much they love what they are doing. No matter how many songs they play the perfection is always on top! Gosh I love these Ladies.... (fun fact! Watch the Girls drinking Water in the Beginning while Misa first takes her Beer^^ and then the Water)
This is simply awesome, Mr.Chupin. Thank you again for capturing this moment.
Kuruppo! 🕊🤘
Download the originals, before they are blocked...
AKANE!!!KANAMI!!!AKANE!!!KANAMI!!!AKANE!!!KANAMI!!!
So right on. I love this band. Along with Love Bites, these two Japanese female bands are the best in the world, in my view.
And yet another Important Rockumentary, TY Vlad, You Rock
Sweet, adorable, genuine, RnR shredding guitar Goddess Kanami --- LOVE po
Saiki's smile is to die for.
Kanami is really going mad!!! Awesome!!! Thank you for uploading!!!
You may wish to download the originals before crazy RIAJ blocks all these videos! They remove one video in approximately two a three months, absolutely randomly. I don't know, they may decide to remove them all one day... 🙄
I was there, stood in the first row. This was the best 2 hours of my life. Thanks for uploading this awesome Show. Now i can enjoy it every Time and the good feelings come back! :)
Well back again, wish they would let me like it everytime I visit,hoping for a Band-Maid European tour in 2024,I also hope you and family are well,till next time.
Me again,this is dare I say as a good as I've watched anywhere, official or the website that shall not be mentioned,Vladimir thankyou so much.
This vid just makes me..... smile. Sure it's a phone cap, but the energy, the interplay between the band members, the interplay with the audience, Kanami just destroying it, the laughter, and the skill, oh the skill. I love this band so much, having a blast and rockin the joint to the ground. October, the Dallas show, I will experience this thrill. Yeah!!!!!!!!
This morning I was able to re-schedule my appointment for a US visa interview! I'll go to the Consulate this Tuesday! Initially, they have given me a slot on October 20, 2023 🤦♂ Yes, twenty-three! It seems somebody cancelled his or her appointment, and the slot was released.
So, maybe I'll see you in Dallas, then! 🤘 I was so disappointed that I would not be able to see the girls in the first post-COVID US tour, but now, it seems, there is a good chance for that!
@@VladimirChupin I understand each word. but for the life of me, I can't understand what the hell you are saying.
@@edwardmcalister8743 Sorry 😱
I'll see you in Dallas, that was the message 😂
@@VladimirChupin That is awesome!!!! I'll be the older pot bellied dude in a headband and a Kanami shirt. If you see me, please introduce yourself to me. I'd love for me and my wife to meet you! See you in Dallas!
They sound so incredible live!
I can do nothing but smile.
I'm glad they seemed to have so much fun! The stage was so tiny, it must have been hard moving around, on top of how hot it was in there. They still rocked our faces off with so much energy and joy :D
kanami intro, hype crowd, saiki jumping and the rest of the members hyping is the reason why i always watch this vid 'classic bandmaid'
Oh, Kanami's solo was *magic*. It's a special thing to be alive in the Band-Maid era.
To be able to see kanami doing her stuff so up close ....OMG
3 of my favorite songs in a row. 😃💕Akane kills on drums and she soloed. I loved Akane swaying to the music of Kanami's cool guitar solo. Miku is playing well and with much more confidence. Saiki seems to having a lot of fun. This was well filmed and the girls sound great. Thanks for posting this gem of a performance!
Did you notice at 1:56 that Miku played the part that Kanami usually does.
Thank you Vladimir, I believe one day your video will be used as historic record to present the greatest Band Maid in early days.
RIAJ will probably block it, one by one. 😒
So, download the original while supplies still last. The link is in the description.
Absolutely fantastic! Never seen Band-Maid live, unfortunately, but this is the closest it gets. I feel I'm right there. And what a wonderful performance!
Yeah, it definitely is! That was an amazing OKYUJI, very intimate and burning hot 💥🔥
My all time fav fan cam video.
Thank you Vlad.
🤘🤩
They make these beautiful noises!!!
I love when Kanami starts playing Santana, watch Akane's face priceless. I love these women.
That was unexpected for all of them. Watch Kanami's face just before that moment. She looks at Saiki, as if asking her, "What do you want, my beloved? I have something for you, you'll like it," and than says "Europa" with her guitar. Priceless.
Kanami ちゃん🍀
音楽の神様が降りてきてますね(*´艸｀*)
BM always blows me away but this set just blew away blown away. i’m not even sure this kind of enthusiasm is legal.
It's the proper substitute for the mind-altering drugs 😜 Therefore, it's not only legal, but must be promoted by the state 😎
The Moratorium part with Kanami’s solo intro (7:15) would justify a video by itself! These girls are just having fun while creating a masterpiece...
0:26: eye contact plus smile to the camera man...
8:56: proud Saiki hiding in the corner to let her baby shine.
9:15: the baby is going crazy...
Band maid are absolutely awesome. Thanks for this performance
It has been a little more than a month since that glorious night in Hamburg and I keep coming back to this video almost on a daily basis... this is pure gold!!!
Me too :-)
Same to you...and with my obligatory pot of tea.
me too :D
Just wait 5 to 10 years and you'll realize just how lucky you were to be so close. AMAZING.
Wow Vladimir,,,,so good you have done an Awsome job for the fans,,,to see that great solo from Akane was brilliant then bang Kanami takes the stage & just Rocks out ,,well oh wow ,,I hope Jimmy Page & Carlos Santana view this ,,just a great job ,,thank you so much ,,,❤️❤️❤️🎸🇳🇿Robby Aus.
Amazing vid.... thank you so much! Shows so much more than the girls playing... all the smiling and the interaction with each other, and Akane’s drum solo! Love it! The New York show cant come fast enough!
This is so much fun to watch...they all seem to be having the time of their lives...great to see Kanami so up close and personal with a grin on her face a mile wide throughout. And of course Saiki playing the crowd like a marionette...so awesome. This has me extra pumped up for NYC in Sept. Thanks Vlad!!
Scream and shout and sing along! :-)
Vladimir, thank you , you are doing God's work. This band is the hope of rock and roll. I saw them live one time and it was life-changing. I imagine you have saved up enough points to live 500 years.
BAND-MAID saves lives, that's true. It saved mine.
Holy mother... why did I miss this?!
🤘
Thanks so much for uploading this Vladmir. For those of us who can't get to see Band Maid this year, it at least gives us a flavour of what Band Maid are bringing to the table. As I am a big Kanami fan, you were perfectly placed :-)
I may be wrong, but I think this video will become a kind of Band-Maid classic, showing how they totally rock the stage. And it should be a rock lesson for any aspiring rock band prior to get on stage!
Agree, I thought the same after Vladimir´s Amsterdam - video with You, Freedom and Real Existence already, but this one tops it all.
Already 23 thousand views, and counting. Oh man...
I fully agree. It turned to be probably the best piece out of the whole concert. Three of their best songs, plus Akane's solo, plus Kanami's solo... Incredible.
Какие же они классные!! :Д просто невероятные!! ну как их не любить?! :Д боже мой Канами?! что ты творишь с этой гитарой?! продолжай :Д обожаю этих девчонок! как бы хотелось к ним на концерт попасть, ну хоть бы раз в Киев заглянули! эх... крутяжки!!
Best live footage I ever seen. Kanami is out of this world 🔥🤘❤️💥
My favourite Band-Maid video of all, perfection.
Who's here after watching Vladimir's 2022 BANDMAID US TOUR videos? Holy Sh## you're so damn close to the Rock Queens. Great stuff. Sounds frkn incredible!!!!!!!Need more KANAMI SOLOS!!!!!
Yes, I saw some comments, people were obviously checking the older videos as well. Probably RUclips is recommending it.
I checked the statistics, and actually, the views for this video dropped by 50% when I started uploading the new videos from the US Tour. Clearly, people switched to the newer stuff.
From Japan
I'm amazed that a BAND-MAID video has been uploaded to RUclips in Japan by sponsor Vladimir Chupin. Thank you for spreading the wonderful live footage. BAND-MAID may be the only band with such dedicated fans. And this may be the first attempt by a fan. Thank you!
Yeah, I thought, why not 🙂 It's a direct help from the fans to their WORLD DOMINATION. I see that the videos actually get thousands of views through the advertisement. I hope more people will know BAND-MAID through this promotion!
The performance is one thing, it's f* AMAZING! But holy shit, you're standing soo close!! My god. This must have been such an intimate and good feeling concert :D Wish I had discovered B-M back then but only found them 3 days ago :'( Hoping to see them live once touring starts up again! Thank you for making me feel like I was there
Thanks for being with me at this show! 🤘
Yes, being so close to BAND-MAID at a concert is a life-changing experience. Their energy just flowed through me, changing me in some very profound way...
They're so wholesome. Got me all googling eyes.
みんちょかっけぇ……🥰
The Band Maid supporter part of me wishes they could play much bigger venues to get more exposure. The selfish part of me is glad they still play venues like this sometimes. Even when they reach the level of recognition they deserve I hope they continue to do so. Besides, they truly seem to be having a blast.
They'll play in Summer Sonic this year but that is in Japan. They need to get exposed in a music festivals abroad like Download.
Ken100, I understand 100% what you meant. This clip reminded me again how much they appreciate and treasure the opportunities where they can perform in front of the real Goshujin-sama and Ojou-sama no matter of the space size or qualities of the facilities they are provided. I'm proud of them. They are real artists.
So agree. They deserve to be main stage at a festival.
It seems to be a garage but it is a well known institution in Hamburg for over 40 years. And because it is so tiny audience and musicians love it. It creates a privat atmosphere as you can see in the video. The audience is only one feet away from the stage and I feel blessed that I was part of it.
Small selection of bands who played there:
Jango Edwards
Halloween
Warlock
Philipp Boa & The Voodoo Club
Canned Heat
Kathrina & The Waves
Manic Street Preachers
The Verve
H Blockx
Alex Harvey Band
Rammstein
Mouse On Mars
Skunk Anansi
Cardigans
No Doubt
Ugly Kid Joe
Nada Surf
Dr. Feelgood
Blink 182
Slipknot
Lemonbabies
Papa Roach
Queens Of The Stoneage
Disturbed
The Hives
.... and so on, and so on. 15-20 gigs every month since 1974!
@@showgee it will happen. www.inkcarceration.com
In Mansfield on July 11th at the Ohio State Reformatory. This festival drew 40,000 last year. And they appear on a Netflix production of Kate portraying themselves. That will further expose them to thousands more.
I LOVE KANAMI SO F MUCH
First, thank you Vladimir for posting this video. I lost track how many times I've watched it! There are so many great parts in this video, but my favorite part is at about 10:08 right after Mincho's solo as they're kicking into Moratorium. The look and smile on Sai-chan's face is just happy overload awesomeness! So cool every time I see it.
Yes, Saiki is jumping like a rubber ball, overfilled with joy 😍
And that's after two hours on high heels!
These ladies are amazing!
@@VladimirChupin Yes, I hadn't thought about that. 2 hours in high heels and she's still going bananas! That can't be easy.
Can't believe how close up on the band you all got. Amazing!!!
Greatest fan-cam
みんちょヤバすぎる！曲全部作ってこのプレイ凄すぎる
Vlad you have outdone yourself! Thank you very much for posting all these from their European World Domination tour, excellent quality. I have a ticket to their Dallas show and intend to study these for reference;-) I appreciated your Misa vantage before but Kamani steals the show with her solo before Moratorium. I love how they all react to it. Beautiful women, great personalities, technical wizardry, tasteful music, and "service" uniforms Japan should declare them a national treasure. But what I really love about them is how they love one other & have fun!
While being in Hamburg, I stayed with my sister who lives there. The day after the show, we watched the Queen movie, and afterwards I've shown them the Bubble MV. I have never seen this Queen movie before, but I knew, of course, that Bubble is a tribute to Freddy Mercury. It was great to finally see all the references to the movie the girls have inserted into Bubble MV.
I think the greatest thing about that movie and about Bubble is that feeling of unity of the band, which is highlighted so strongly. In the same way as Queen was great when they were united, BAND-MAID feels the same way.
Kanami seems to think about it a lot, maybe as a result of Queen movie and Bubble. In her interview in GIGS Magazine she says that BAND-MAID is the cause of her life, and even if she ever starts writing songs for other bands, or playing as a guest musician in other projects, BAND-MAID is forever central to her.
And during her recent report on the European tour, she says she shared a room with Akane, and again she thought to herself, "What great people we are, getting along so easily, and being so friendly to each other!"
@@VladimirChupin I think of the music business as a corrosive acid on bands' personnel. And when I discovered Band-Maid they had been in the business for awhile. But what struck me about them was their cohesiveness. I saw an interview with the whole band and of course I don't understand Japanese but the personalities were just fascinating and enchanting. I couldn't tell how much was "put on" or real since they do have a great sense of humor. So when they started on Kamani's devotion to Saiki and how she appreciated Saiki tying her bow etc I thought she's just joshing but after watching more interviews performances and the music videos you begin to appreciate Kamani's earnestness about all things. I love how she jams with band members and how the others appreciate her attention. I have seen Saiki adjusting her head piece for her during a performance in one of your videos and it shows the affection for her. I also like how during her solo before Moratorium you gave us a view of Saiki just beaming at her. I also love how Kamani gets all up in the audience before she retreats back to Akane! Your Hamburg footage is just great even with the sixth member of the band blocking the view of Kobata & Misa.
It's only Rock & Roll but I like it. Thanks again!

So good on so many levels.. just recently found them..Thx for the video👍😎
Welcome to the family! 🤘
Thanks. I love this girl's
Extremely fantastic
Good audio on this 👍. Lovely to see just how much they enjoy playing together.
that guitar solo in the middle just kills. The singing sounds great.
kanami goes absolutely nuts in a reserved maid kinda way and it always makes me cry
#KanamiAwakens
#MinchoAwakens
#みんちょ覚醒
Long live BAND-MAID
🤘❤✌🇬🇧
9:15-9:24 crazy how fast she is it looks sped up 😲Kanami what a beast she is!🤘🏻
Your my spirit animal Vlad, you have been to more than one BM show, and been so close to these Subarashii artists, I'd be remiss if i didn't say i was jealous, and that your 1 of the luckiest SOBs on the firkin planet!
🤘 BAND-MAID forever!
This might be my favorite Band Maid video now
Beside my admiration for their personalities and musicianship I´m glad about the fact, that they don´t change their instruments after every second song. Look at the effect-boards on the floor and together with the technician at the PA they can create the sound which fits. Nice to see that they tune the instruments by themselves.
There was that guy, a musician... what's his name... Axe Japan! He said in his video about Kanami's guitar rig, that she has some pedals, which help her to retune her guitar on-the-fly, without the need to change it. Probably you refer to that video, right? ruclips.net/video/YBhf-PUECtk/видео.html
If you check the videos for their concerts in Japan which are on DVD you'll notice both Miku and Kanami change their guitars. The fact they don't on tour is more down to the fact they can only carry one guitar with them when flying ?
@@thomasrotweiler Yes, I also thought the same. Last year, Aeroflot has lost their luggage, when they were flying from Moscow to Helsinki, and Kanami had to run around the city musical shops in order to rent a PRS guitar. She said, they found only some very old vintage one for her, and she had to play it during the concert. No such luxury as changing guitars during a concert on tour...
Vlad, I happened to be at the show in Helsinki, but it took me a while B4 comprehending what Kanami was trying to explain in 'English 'why she had to play the vintage PRS found at a local shop in Helsinki instead of her own. And I'm a Japanese fan, lol.

Good sound quality for an audience recording... and being so close to the band makes it a really great video!
