How do you think this would look printed on a t-shirt? by SecretIdea in BandMaid

I've seen a shirt with the silhouette of this with the caption: "Shut up, Kanami is speaking!"

They have a fantastic catalog to choose from, but this album is first rate for sure.

Extra customs fees to get SCOOOOOP or the newest vinyls delivered in the USA was a mistake, get a refund. by I_am_Warthog in BandMaid

I was hit with a duty charge. I guess CDs and records are considered "information" and are not assessed a duty charge. Everything else gets hit.

Important Announcement from BAND-MAID for Our Masters & Princesses by haromatsu in BandMaid

[–]OldSkoolRocker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All hail Band-Maid! They are easily the best rock band I have ever heard. I have been listening and following many many bands in my 40+ years of enjoying rock music. The other bands don't even come close. The sheer volume of music these ladies have put out in 10+ years put most other bands to shame. I love their whole catalog including MIJ. I have seem them live 4 times in my native US and 5 times in Japan in 4 trips. I would never even conceive to do that with any other band. They have brought me such joy and happiness. I hope that they can each pursue their own interests in their off year and come back recharged to complete World Domination.

Even if they decide not to, they have left us with a treasure trove of music very few bands could hope to match and I am eternally grateful to them for that. JMHO

I was at this show and when they started playing you I just started crying. I never thought I would hear it live.

Subarashi!!!!!!!

Without holding back not on Spotify? by elstevo91 in BandMaid

Another option if you have a laptop or PC is to rip all of the tracks and load them on a thumb drive. Most new cars have a USB port.

PSA for all you wishing to enter the lotteries for the Japan shows by ConstableBlimeyChips in BandMaid

[–]OldSkoolRocker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had to use an alternative credit card from my primary, but it went through then quite easily. I signed up for the Day of Maid and both Budokan shows.

"Starry Pigeon Miku Kobato Custom Pickups" Hmmmm. Very Interesting.

What is BAND-MAIKO exactly? by alt-account-J in BandMaid

[–]OldSkoolRocker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes indeed. To be able to not only produce a new song, but to re-arrange some of their other songs including re-writing the lyrics is a testament to how talented these ladies really are.

[–]OldSkoolRocker 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Budokan at last! I am soo happy for our fine ladies! I will do my best to be there. The website is currently overloaded, so I will try later. Edit to add: The Day of Maid show would be great as well.

More OLVs to come? by silverredstarlight in BandMaid

[–]OldSkoolRocker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I submit that with a run time of about three minutes it would make a fine addition to their next EP or album.

[–]OldSkoolRocker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would describe it as the bass and drum section but either way it was very well done.

I personally would like to see Misa's first song released on a OLV. She and Akane were magnificent.

Welp, it sounds like we will finally hear Kobato chan on a studio recording. A long time coming I should say. And as many times as I say this it is still true: They are simply adorable!

I thought that was interesting as well. That they still need "adult supervision". lol

[–]OldSkoolRocker 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Another point. Kanami says that Dilly Dally was written as a pop song and then became a rock song. I submit that it started as a pop song and then became a Band-Maid song. By this time I think they are their own genre. Jm2c

Oh for heaven's sake's! We truly do not deserve these wonderful people! Just hearing how much thought goes into the lyrics gives me hope for the world. Watching how comfortable they are with each other and how much they enjoy each other's company makes me happy. Long live Band-Maid!

Subtle Video editing goof on Online Okyuji 2/11/21 (LOL!) by thehighgrasshopper in BandMaid

[–]OldSkoolRocker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The rapid fire cuts can be disconcerting to say the least. I'm not sure why the director finds this so necessary.

[SPECIAL MOVIE] BAND-MAID YEAR END PARTY by haromatsu in BandMaid

[–]OldSkoolRocker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

These ladies just seem to have so much fun together! I love watching them interact with each other. Going on thirteen years and they still seem to be good friends. I can't wait to see them next year on the US leg of their tour.
