YES
Finally a Ringo-sung version of Tsukiyou no Shouzo!!! I can't wait for the DVD release of these. |

This isn't full orchestra versions... Its way more stripped back by sounds of it. Well, compared to Expo/Bon Voyage anyway. I ain't complaining. The exact opposite, actually, I gotta hear these.

Hey guys! Just registered so I could post about the shows. I went last night. First Ringo show ever, 10 years waiting for that day. I have to echo what has been said - a bit too much soft jazz-type stuff, not enough fast tunes at all. Very few old songs too. Tons of SG. Some of the arrangements were crazy good though and brought new life to the newer songs.
Her voice is something else though! Soooo good... Overall I think this is one of my least favourite live shows she's done in her career, but it was still so good to go. |

So Kyary Pamyu Pamyu went to tonight's show (as an audience member) and tweeted about it. I don't know whether this itself is anything noteworthy or important in the scheme of things, but at least I can give her brownie points for being into Shiina Ringo.
However, the pictures from the NicoNicoDouga stream are interesting. Looks like Ringo's been funny hat shopping once again, hope to see this part of the stream sooner or later:

I think it's pretty hard to argue pre-phase 2 Shiina as a projection. The things she did, the things she made all pointed to a pro-individual, pro-female statement. She was counter-culture (in an admittedly commercial, hit factory sort of way) and now she is not. Her statement may still be pro-female, but it seems very much in a "stay inside the lines" kind of way. Which is fine, if underwhelming or muted to some on the outside.

True. People change. Maybe I'm oversimplifying her development a bit...
Also, Frecklegirl, I read that some of the songs were sung in English. Did anything strike as you as being interesting or wonky about the translations of the songs, or were they pretty right-on? I have a love-hate relationship with Robbie Clark. Haha.

I noticed that the Toukatai shirts are completely different to the Hantakai shirts.... could this suggest that they are indeed different shows? Or just a way to make a quick couple thousand yen?
I kinda hope they're different, at least different setlists and we get 2 blu rays. My wallet hopes they're the same show. Hantakai are fanclub only right? Or was that the cinema sessions? Surely they wouldn't pull a 'rock' show for a smaller audience? That would be crazy and piss off a lot of people...
