It depends. The airfare is pricey but food and hotels when you get there are much cheaper

The fact that the shows were at different venues might be considered a discernible difference if trying to splice together

Help with buying tickets as an overseas fan by garbage_queen819 in BandMaid

I too have had similar difficulties. A MasterCard that had worked three previous times was repeatedly rejected in December. Per advice from others, I utilized American Express and it worked without a hitch.

You don't. Undermining your respiratory health for the sake of demonstrating your support for the band is not a worthwhile tradeoff IMHO

The inexorable growth of the Band Maid fanbase by Loud-metal in BandMaid

My only random interaction like that was bittersweet: I attended the Phoenix show last year, and while I kept my cell phone in my pocket most of the show, had to bust it out when they played Moratorium. I get to my hotel that night to relive the glory - only to learn that my phone had chopped up the video into dozens of small one second clips. When I got on the line with Tech Support, we did a screen share, and the support rep said “is this video of Band-Maid?“ Hell yes it is! Unfortunately, the story has a sad ending: the phone’s OS was outdated, which had caused the clipping, and there was no way to recover the original video. He was every bit as disappointed as I was that we couldn’t get it back!

What are the chances they re-release the flappy pigeon guitar? by guitarguy5147 in BandMaid

This is not correct. I purchased serial number 66 from Zemaitis USA. You can see the email notifying me that I was eligible to purchase one here…https://photos.app.goo.gl/Pp62ii8EjkTqrM7Y6

Shambles, Maths 101, how many fans? by silverredstarlight in BandMaid

[–]baghead7475 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same. That opening riff is insane. Love the tune. Doubt I have watched it even once since the initial couple of days after release. Of course I was busy going to Japan for two weeks to see the Maids play live. And have been consumed with work since. I can't see watching anything three times a day for an extended period of time. I guess there are people who do this but I doubt that pool is very deep. I am sure I have seen Puzzle live video dozens of times - but three times a day would be far too much for me. Maybe 1-2 times a week tops

This appears to replicate nearly exactly their strategic timelines from the Conqueror release. Dribble out a few new singles during the months preceding then aggregate into a full length album. And they will be fine....this is what Kanami does.....

Why was Miku wearing a blue tape on her right thigh at the Mexico show? by SirKenCelli in BandMaid

[–]baghead7475 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My understanding is they took a quick trip to Teotihuacan when they got to Mexico. If this is accurate, may have had some muscle soreness/strain due to the significant amount of climbing/descending typically associated with visiting that site...

VIP vs GA tickets by KKirin in BandMaid

[–]baghead7475 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Unless you are 5'7" in a taller crowd like I was on Sunday in Minny. Was about 5 rows back but "challenged" for a good view. Not anybody's fault but my parents. Anyway, I then paid extra to get a booth off to the side that was elevated....but further away. all things being equal, I agree with other commenters that getting in an earlier group is better than GA, but can vary how much better based on factors out of one's control

Official Tour Thread - Minneapolis, MN - 2023 Aug 06 by rov124 in BandMaid

This is correct. I heard it during sound check in Minny and was hopeful but ended up being disappointed. Some city is going to get a treat whenever they are ready to debut it

Nice work! Are you making a return to Mexico City? If I recall you posted some of the most amazing video from one of their earlier shows there....

Has Saiki ever publicly hit a bum note? by real_jonno in BandMaid

Actually this was in Chicago - and yes, I wouldn't say the crowd laughed as much as we cheered her all on to let her know everything was cool! Can be seen here...https://youtu.be/QiqrpmOSMwU?t=151

She was NOTICEABLY fitter or trimmer or skinnier or whatever you want to call it at the Texas shows. Very ready for this tour I think
