Saw Boredoms at Kyoto Seika University's gymasium this past weekend. It was EPIC, starting with the first song (which followed an excellent and psychedelic extremely loud DJ set) featuring two of the drummers paraded around the in-the-round stage on sort of mikoshi-esque platforms carried by eight men each. They did film it, so we will see if it gets a proper release, and is not embarressingly produced like their last live DVD.

The set blew my head off. Seems like the kind of thing many of the "old-Shiina" diehards would love; rocking, extreme, and insane. They are definitely a "live" experience, I almost never play them just to listen to them. For me, they only really make sense in a live context.
