Schwarz Stein Reincarnation Tokyo

 Earlier this year they made the remix album Reincarnation and a coupling gig. Then it was announced that they would make a mini tour (Tokyo and Osaka) and they also made a survey asking what song fans would like to hear remixed for this tour. 

Yesterday was the first gig of the tour and there were some things that surprised me. First was that they played the DEMIGOD version of Addictive Epicurean (I prefer the new regular version so I was happy though) and second was which song made it to become a new remix; Current. I was hoping people would vote for a more rare song (I voted for the alternation of generations since that’s the only song by now that they haven’t played live since their reunion at least).

Before the DEMIGOD release Current was played quite a lot at lives. Another thing about the remix, there were very subtle changes (a friend said she didn’t even realize it was a remix at first). I was hoping for a bigger change and for a different song.

Since the set list didn’t change much from earlier this year I’m also curious what songs people voted for to hear (I’m gonna ask Kaya and Hora at the next live). 

There were also no new merch despite that being included in the questionnaire and prices had increased (1 cheki with them now cost 3000yen and a random cheki was 1500yen) not sure if that was because they didn’t have any afterevent and that’s comes with a 3shot cheki. 

Kaya mentioned he had a cold last week and that he still has a bit of a cough but he pulled through. I managed to get a front row place this time so he took my hand during Succubus when he leaned in, I wasn’t knocked in the head this time (might not have mentioned that but last year i got kaya’s elbow in my head xD it’s ok, i don’t mind it getting rough). Like always I had so much fun and it’s sad going back home having to deal with every day problems. 

Points from the mc

1. There will be another anniversary live next year . 
2. My event in December is a ”no plan”, meaning they don’t know what they’ll do then yet. 
3. Kaya suggested Hora also make a calendar, he suggested he make a ”fireman” calendar (apparently Kaya is into that xD, doesn’t surprise me)
4. Kaya also suggested Hora stagedive. He said no and during Succubus when Kaya leant down on us I saw Hora pushing him a bit. Some of us waved at him to stage dive during succubus when he got close but he didn’t.
5. Kaya said they’ll probably change the setlist a bit for Osaka.
