Hmm fair enough.

If you guys wanted any of the tour goods from Expo 14, HMV has a bundle available to order and it ships worldwide. Costs 5000 yen but you get all this junk:

EDIT: I also notice they have the tshirts and stuff too (ALL shirts are 3500 yen)

(I really really love clothes. Like for real.)

Yeah, I agree that she has been repeating herself. But... I do think her quality has been pretty good considering how much material she's written overall.

A type of music she hasn't done yet that I'd love to hear her take on would be 80's electronic. Something like Depeche Mode or Eurythmics "Here Comes the Rain Again" type stuff.

^ Yes, like a concept album of sorts. The synth or electronic equivalent of Heisei fuuzoku (maybe sans rehashed old songs -- though I certainly wouldn't mind them rearranged and self-covered).

That is the Ariamaru Tomi Box. I think it's actually pretty small, so everything inside it is postcard sized or smaller. Here it is next to some other goods:

Ordered 3 tshirts for friends. Can't beat being able to get official goods from overseas this easy. They already shipped em too...

[deadgrandma]

So, it's arrived. It is what it is. People who liked the previews are gonna eat it up. People with concerns over the previews, are gonna carry those same concerns through the entire show. The Blu Ray audio is pretty clean but has nothing on other releases, even EXPO 08 or Bon Voyage. Hope you like Aya and Bambi, cause they're spotlight stealers. Can't say much more than this right now. I will watch it a couple times before I decide with 100% certainty if this was worth the cash.

More than anything. I hope that this is the end of the Sunny era of with the release of EXPO 14.

Anything else next Ringo, just rip off Goldfrapp or something. Hell, just fucking release Reimport part 2. Get Otomo Yoshihide to partner up with you again, that was amazing :-p

Another getting the academic version other than Turtlefu?

[deadgrandma]

Probably not, cause by time I go through all the deputy shit (I don't think it's shipping international), it will cost almost as much as the real DVD.

Though that damn collector demon keeps whispering in my ear...
