Ken’s Voice <12.10>
Happy birthday to me.
I'm doing a song recording recently! Before the recording, I prepared everything I need, like humidifier, inhaler, taking manipulative treatment, mask, taking vitamin and a lot of water!
And ask Tatsuro how he takes care of his throat when I worked with MUCC.
I keenly feel this time that body is an instrument for singer.
I've taken care of my guitars like changing the strings and polishing the body, but never taken tare of my throat before.
Actually it's too much of a bother, but I don't get a cold so far because of these I guess.
Oh, I'll be vaccinated against influenza. It's getting cold these days, so take care of yourself and don't get a cold!
ハッピーバースデイ トゥー ミー!
最近は歌いれ突入してます!今回は歌いれを周りからかためてみました。
加湿器、吸入器、整体、マスク、ビタミン、たっぷりの水!
ムックのプロデュースでたつろうにのどのケア方法きいてみたり。今回感じるのは、歌は身体が楽器なんだなってこと。ギターは弦かえたり磨いたことあるけど、喉に気をつけたことなかったなあ。正直、とってもめんどくさいんだけど、おかげで今年は風邪ひいてません。ちなみにインフルエンザの予防接種にもいく予定です。みんなも寒いけど身体に気をつけてね!
祝自己生日快乐。
最近我正在录一首歌!在录音前,我准备了所以需要的一切,像增湿器,呼吸器,进行了调养,口罩,吃了很多维生素和水!
在和MUCC工作的时候还咨询了Tatsuro他怎样保护嗓子。
我敏锐地发现对歌手来说身体就像是乐器。
我已经保护好了我的吉他,比如调弦和打磨琴身,但是之前从来没有保护过我的嗓子。
实际上这非常麻烦,但是我至今没有感冒过,我猜大概是因为这样(有在保护嗓子)。
哦,我会去接种流行感冒疫苗。最近变得冷了,所以保重自己别感冒了!

2008.09.19 Vamps Live Report from JaME
VAMPS Live Report
LIVE REPORT - 19.09.2008
The first tour of VAMPS showed a promising future for this new band.
On August 1st and 2nd JaME was able to attend the first two concerts of 'newcomer' band VAMPS, consisting of a pair of anything but newcomers, HYDE and K.A.Z. During their first tour the band played several concerts at different Zepp venues all over Japan.
As the fans were waiting in the hall, a big digital clock was projected onto the still closed curtains showing the time. As 7pm approached, the whole hall was surprised to see the clock not switch to 7 pm but instead to 6:60. It proceeded tick past to a number most fans are familiar with: 6:66. At that moment, the intro of the show started; the curtains opened and the band appeared, starting off with a HYDE song, MADE IN HEAVEN, an excellent opening song with an interesting introduction.
The stage was decorated to look like an old mansion, complete with candles, a fire place and a deer's head on the wall. Keyboardist Jin performed wearing a mask from within a cage on the stage. It wasn't just the stage that was decorated; the walls of the hall were completely covered in graffiti stating obscene words. The hall decoration fit perfectly with the band's performance: rough and chaotic yet good.
Songs like MASQUERADE (from HYDE'S 6 6 6 album) were proof of HYDE's versatile voice as he sang the song with clarity, switching to a raw voice at the right moments. He did this during the whole show and it definitely gave the songs more depth.
HYDE switched to an acoustic guitar and together with bassist Ju-ken he started a long intro to the song PERFECT MOMENT. Although unfortunately the acoustic guitar sound was set a tad too soft and sometimes got lost in the bass line, the intro was mesmerizing and left the audience silently staring at the stage admiringly.
During an MC HYDE teasingly introduced his fellow band members at high-speed, to which the audience reacted with a frustrated noise. After doing this again, and getting the same reaction from the fans, HYDE pointed at each member and let the fans say their names. As he looked at the audience victoriously, he joked "see, you already know!"
One thing that was obvious during the shows was that HYDE, K.A.Z. and Ju-ken made a great front trio. They played together well and interacted with both each other and the audience, which made the show a little more than just a concert. Along with the stage, the shows felt complete and it was truly a small spectacle.
On the first evening VAMPS treated the fans to UNEXPECTED (DIST.), a rockier version of the original HYDE ballad. Just about every fan sang along, which was just as impressive as seeing the band perform the song. The second night of the tour they played not only UNEXPECTED (DIST.), but also EVERGREEN (DIST.), with an updated version of the old ballad.
Another nice surprise for both evenings was Lucy in the sky with Diamonds, a cover of a song from The Beatles. VAMPS' version is a lot heavier than the original version and definitely had its own touch. Played live this song is very strong and made the audience rock out.
But the absolute highlight of the show was the very first song released as the unit VAMPS: LOVE ADDICT. The band made the fans clap the rhythm, before starting the guitar intro. This glam sounding song was performed with fitting light effects and the band rocked out as much as the audience was. The fans kept clapping throughout the whole song and enthusiastically sang along the "hu-hu" parts of the song.
The band ended the second night with MIDNIGHT CELEBRATION. As the song started, light bulbs were let down from the ceiling by chords hanging above the stage. The further into the song, the more chaotic the stage and light effects got, something that suited the song perfectly. Near the end of the song the light bulbs started swinging around violently and really made it look as if the hall was shaking on foundations along with the song. The song really made a great end of the evening, although it probably made the audience just crave for more...!

VAMPS第一次演出显示出新乐队的美好未来
在8月1日和2日JaME能参加由一对老搭档,HYDEh和KAZ组成的新晋乐队“VAMPS”,的第一、二场演出。在他们巡演期间乐队将在全日本不同的ZEPP场馆表演。
歌迷在场馆内等候的时候,一个巨大的电子计时投影在演出即将开始时显示着时间。在接近7点的时候,整个会场都震惊于时间并没有显示7:00,而是6:60。时钟继续滴答出现了歌迷熟悉的一个数字6:66。此刻,演出开始了;幕布被拉起成员们出现了,第一首歌开始于HYDE的MADE IN HEAVEN,一首激动人心的开场曲和一个有趣的前奏。
舞台被装饰地像一个老式公寓,点满了蜡烛,墙上有一个火炉和一个鹿头。键盘手JIN戴着面具被关在舞台上的笼子里。不仅舞台被装饰了,整个场馆的墙壁上满是污秽言语的涂鸦。舞台和乐队的演出结合地非常完美:粗犷杂乱但很棒。
MASQUERADE(出自HYDE666大碟)这样的歌显示出了HYDE多变的假声,当他清澈地演唱时,又在适当时机转变成真声。在整个演出中他都是如此演绎给歌曲带来更深刻的印象。
HYDE带上了吉他和贝斯手JU-KEN开始了PERFECT MOMENT的前奏。很不幸他的吉他听上去有点舒缓并且有时候没有和贝斯统一,前奏是迷人的,歌迷们静静地站在台下聆听。
在HYDE MC的时候,他嘲讽地快速地介绍着他身后的队员们,台下的观众发出了抱怨的喊声回应着。再次介绍后,歌迷们发出了同样的回应,HYDE指着每一个队员,让歌迷们说出他们的名字。他得意地看着歌迷,他开玩笑地说“看,你们已经都认识了!”
演出时HYDE,KAZ和JU-KEN表演了三重奏。他们一起完美配合和观众们一起互动,让演出更胜过一场演唱会。除了舞台以外,演出非常成功并且真地是一场小型演出。
第一晚,VAMPS对UNEXPECTED做了更改,把HYDE的民谣版本做成了摇滚。就像乐队表演一样感人,几乎每个歌迷都在跟唱。巡演的第二晚他们不仅表演了UNEXPECTED,还有EVERGREEN,是以前乐队的新版本。
另一个惊喜就是Lucy in the sky with Diamonds,甲壳虫乐队的成名曲之一。VAMPS的版本被原唱更重,并且有它自己的风格。现场演奏这首歌非常的激烈把观众都带动起来。
不过演出的亮点绝对是VAMPS发行的第一首单曲LOVE ADDICT。在吉他演奏前,歌迷们就开始随着节奏鼓掌。烛光非常符合这首歌的灯光效果,乐队和听众一样被带动了起来。整首歌歌迷们都在鼓掌并且狂热地合着歌曲的“HU-HU”部分。
第二晚,乐队表演在MIDNIGHT CELEBRATION中结束。歌曲开始的时候,吊灯被舞台上的吊绳放下。到歌曲的高潮部分,舞台更加杂乱,灯效更多被运用,让歌曲的演绎更完美。接近尾声的时候吊灯开始旋转,看上去真地像整个会场都在随着乐曲震动。这首歌给演出一个完美结局,即使这样会使观众期待更多......!
