Really glad you enjoyed it; I did as well!

As some of the members here already know (hint-hint), we've got a really fun idea in the works that should lead to something really interesting. I'll post more details about it when the time comes but suffice to say, it's going to be really hype.

If you are a regular here, please check your PM inbox. If you are a fan and want to be involved in something interesting, post as much or send me a PM anytime!

Hot on the heels of last week's debut performance of "Uchouten" (which you can view here), B'z have also made an appearance on CDTV for their 2014->2015 special to reign in the new year. On the program, the band again performed the new single due out on January 14th. Today, you can already watch a subtitled version in the Dailymotion video above or download it here.

Thanks for the video and a happy new year to all B'z Fans!

Aww today gets better and better

[Kogorou]

Once again a great show!
And once again a little bit of evidence that Tak is not playing the Wall-of-Amps on Stage
[spoiler][/spoiler]
I wonder what he is playing throught - those are not solid-state amps, they are tube-amps (They seem familiar but I can't put my finger on it)

Oh and I have something comming up in a couple of weeks

I nearly died of all the hype today - the cover, the next live recording and the new years speech and last but not least watching a Queen-Special on TV with my father
This day was pure hype (thanks to everybody who made this possible - thank you)

When it comes to TV appearances, I think the most difficult part is that all of the instruments have to mesh with the studio's sound system and are happening with several acts coming and going. I've seen a lot of situations where the forward-facing amps are for both decoration and for hiding certain cables/speakers that aren't as aesthetically pleasing, while the actual instruments are being routed through the local sound system so that it's ensured the sound is properly captured for the broadcast without any interference or issues. Of course, there's not as much time to set up for most of these shows, and often there are several different performers on a given night, so I guess that's just the easiest solution. After all, the sound there isn't actually being distributed with the in-studio audience primarily in mind--while there are a few hundred in a studio, there are millions watching at home.

In general, I've read a few times that B'z have never liked appearing on TV since there's a lot less preparation and control over everything when they have to go into these pre-configured studios/venues that have a lot of moving pieces and not a lot of time to properly work their magic.

They'll be back on TV in a couple of days, with one of the last two scheduled performances they have on the books. Should be hype!

EPIC NIGHT will be backing up/promoting EPIC DAY. Pretty funny, I love it. Thanks for the New Year message, I'm looking forward to their next performance on TV (which is happening very soon?) too.

Yay new Avatar
Now I am eagerly waiting on the Issue of Young Guitar *sits down and waits*

And this is why we all need a japanese Amazon account:

Rocksmith 2014 × Limited Edition Tak Matsumoto DC Standard Aqua Blue

Wow, nice! I don't recall seeing those two bundled together.

Something off-topic:
I still have two OnePlus One Invites to share?
Anybody cares? Send me PM. (I don't want them to go to waste)

Here we have a subbed version of the recent B'z appearance on music panel show Shinnen Dakara Kantetsu de Ongaku Night. B'z performed "Uchouten" for the series and were the first to appear on the episode. In addition to subtitling the new song, the video also includes the hosts' discussion about the band before and after the performance.
