You think you're going there for the music; you think you're going there for the Maids; you think you're going there for the joy and excitement. But once you get to a Band-Maid concert, you realize... it's all about the love. 🎀💝🎀 Thx, John!
Miku’s Magic Pell Time, you MUST participate or feel th3 wrath of the pigeon. I saw them in Chicago last year. I have been going to concerts since 1985. I have never had more fun at a show. They are in the top tier with 4 other bands I have seen live over the last almost 40 years. Each are for differing reasons but Band Maid was just pure fun.
You have discovered the fact that Band-Maid fans are willing to travel long distances and are some of the nicest people around. We're just happy to be there and glad to see everyone else there as well.
I enjoyed your concert report. And I'm always looking forward to your BAND-MAID reaction. I'm Japanese and live in Japan, but I've been listening to their music for 5 years, but they haven't come to my town yet, and I haven't met them live. Seeing them live, the best hard rock band in the world, is the only dream left in my life. I live for that dream. Thanks for the great video. I dream of the day when I can meet you somewhere in the world. I'm looking forward to BAND-MAID's reaction from now on.
I've seen a few Vlogs from that concert. First i saw was from Michelle who doesn't do reactions, but does covers. As a guitarist she is a big fan of Mincho and has brought a gift to her twice. Very sweet girl, so recommend checking it out. Yes.. she is the one spesking japanese during the gig.
Sorry I missed you at the show. I was there starting at 6:30am to be on the rail for the show. I was right in front of MISA for this show. This was a great show and happy to see that you really enjoyed the show. Band-Maid does more than just sing songs for their shows as you witnessed. This is why they call it an okyuji (serving). It truly is a magical moment in time spent with amazing music and musicians and one of the best fan bases in all of rock (imo). I saw them Friday night in my hometown of Atlanta as well and was on the rail, again, in front of Miku and MISA. I was able to get a guitar pick from Miku at that show as well. Crowd interaction and participation is major, integral part of a Band-Maid show. They feed off of the crowd energy and the more we give them the more they give it back to us during the show.
I need to go to about 1000 more Band-Maid concerts. You need to come to Japan to watch them. IMHO, the energy here is about 100x higher. After I saw them in Kumamoto to begin their 10th Anniversary tour, I couldn't sleep for a week I was so pumped up.
Really awesome that you had that amazing experience with Band-Maid! I had a great time when I saw them in Austin, Tx., they are just a great band and great ladies that deserve everything that they get because they work hard and earn it. I am still happy that I discovered them about four years ago, hopefully I can go see them again in August. Band-Maid forever!!!
Glad you enjoyed it ,, it is a whole different experience to see them live - no video does justice to the energy the Maids have during a show . Welcome to the community of Maidiacs .
great video man and thanks for taking the time, I'm in the music business and as a studio musician having worked in Tokyo, I am so proud of having you guys support these girls, it almost makes me tear up. I have seen them first in 2015 in Japan and at that time was wondering how that concept of theirs would work over seas, and here we go, they are doing exactly what I could not achieve, bur their success allowed me to re-live my early days as a musician hoping to making it instead of being stuck in a studio helping other people sounding great.
Man the work you do in studio in very important and though I know it can be a thankless job, you’re the real one making the music happen for a lot of bands and I genuinely appreciate and respect your line of work! 🙌🙌
@@JohnReavesLive thanks, greatly appreciated, Studio work Is hard at times because you are forced to play what the artist envisioned and not always jives with what you think should be played!
Dude. The crowd in Daytona was WAY bigger than I thought it was and it just warmed my heart seeing that many people see them live again or for the first time.
Thanks for sharing! and for your channel! Band-Maid is the reason I went back to search for good music all over the world. They resucitated my love for music!
Normally I'd be envious, but I was able to see them in Detroit on May 24th. Great crowd and energy. While it was fun to see them in a smaller venue, I hope someday they can attract larger crowds and play in larger venues. They deserve it.
I have seen a few Japanese bands live, and there is a kind of magic that they bring with them. And I put that down to friendship, all the members are friends who like doing what they do, which allows them to play around with each other on stage. And it comes over to the crowd that they are enjoying themselves, it also leads to special moments that you'll never see them do again. I saw Band Maid in London when during Miku's Omajinai time, Saki wanted to mess with Miku's head so sat at the drum kit, and it ended up with them all playing the drums. Mind you it always happens during Omajinai time, they seem to like messing with Miku's head, which is why Miku is always checking to see what they are up to. It's cute and fun, and the crowds love it. Babymetal are always pulling faces, sticking their tongues out or poking each other. And Japanese bands always make you feel as if they really want to be there, and are so happy you are there as well, that they make you part of the family. I have also seen a lot of western bands that can make you feel as if they are just going though the motions, that they don't really want to be there, it's just another show. I have seen Band Maid live 3 times now, and every show is different in some way, even if it's the same set list.
It is pretty funny that they played in a bowling alley. I'm glad the show was awesome, and that you had a good time. I'm hoping when they come back in August they'll come up near PA.
Saiki was the most impressive to me at the show. Sounded fantastic live. She hit every note and was strong through the end of what...20+ songs? For the first time in my life, I waited after the show to get everyone's autograph for like 1.5 hours only to find out they didn't want anyone to see them not in costume so no autographs. That's the only bummer in the whole night. Plan on seeing them again somewhere when they come back.
I think it is more about the COVID, they try to avoid situations that lead some of them get sick and have to cancel the tour. In the past they did "meet and greets" and take pictures with fans. But in the stage they speak to the fans and beave carefree while take a rest.
Was at the show with my kid but I tend to find a spot first and just hang there (Dad pays for the trip/tickets, she buys the beers lol). We were about 30th or so in the GA line, went in and walked up to the rail on the right (Kanami) side of the stage. Had part of it cut off (when Kanami was back by her board/mic we couldn't see her) and only got most of Akane's kit. It was my fifth Band-Maid show (did DC, Philly, NYC and Boston in the fall, and followed up with #6 in my hometown of Detroit on Wednesday). Being that close to the action was surreal. As I told a friend who I brought to the Detroit show whose musical tastes are similar to mine, you WILL have fun at a Band-Maid show! Glad you enjoyed it John (and have a few more great songs you've heard from them that don't have official vids, like One and Only, Screaming and Hate?), they crushed it as usual. Now to decide which August show to attend...
As much as these ladies deserve to sell out stadiums, I hope they never stop doing these smaller venues. They are so personable and involved with the crowd. I'm glad you got to see them live! Best show I have ever been too! And jealous that you got to hear them do Memorable! I can't wait to see them again!
❤ Awesome right- saw them in Houston on May 14th they were spectacular live I will keep this memory forever Love me some Bandmaid -Rock On John Reaves-and thank you for sharing your BM experience cheers take care 🎉
John, you have done it again my friend! I watched your concert travel blog and as usual, you provided some great content for those of us that were not there, shared a fact about Nashville I did not know which is the parking sucks and then took us to eat Ramen with you (which is one of my favorite foods)! DUDE, it was the car ride home where you had me in happy tears as you explained how Music might not be in your life the way you had envisioned but the way that you have kept music in your life and how it fits in now is right where you feel like it should ❤❤❤ You are a beacon of wisdom and positivity and if you were not doing what you are now with music, I would have never seen your channel which has filled my life with joy because you sir are making a difference in this world🙏👍 At the end of the day, if we can make just one persons day better, even if it is our own sometimes…it was a great day! Let’s continue to have those!! I am up in Indianapolis, just 3.5 short hours from Nashville so if you are ever up this way for a show, please let me know👍
Thank you for a great fan cam, what a win BM live and your favourite ramen all in one night, you definitely got hit on the backside by a rainbow 😄 Your passion for music and the Maids really came through so for what it's worth you now have a new Aussie subscriber, looking forward to you sharing more of your dive into the BM pigeon hole. What a fcken band Viva the Maids peace and love Po 👍🎼🥁🎸🎤🍻
Soooo Jealous, you get to say you were at the famous Nashville bowling okyu-ji that will be added to the Band Maid lore. Years from now many stories will be told of that and other incredible experiences seeing the Maids to incredulous youngsters saying 'really grandpa, you were there!'
Great job with the travel vlog! I so badly wanted a margarita and a pair of bowling shoes when you started! Band Maid was very good, a lot of talent there. Life does send us some curveballs from time to time it’s a matter of adapting. John you have a huge support group out there that I know is sending you positive vibes! Thanks for the ride along!:-)
We'll glad you enjoyed them yes they are better live they blow it out of the park when there live I just hate when it's over .It's amazing seeing a band that's just that damn good
Great meeting you at the concert ! Great clip of your first Band Maid concert. ( I do mean first!). The Maidiacs are an awesome group of people open to talk to anyone. I have met people from other countries at their concerts. The band is so genuine and make people happy! It’s more than a concert when different cultures can make friendships! Thanks again to you and Band-Maid. #bandmaid 🤘🔥
*John* It's great you get to experience *BAND-MAID* live they are such an awesome band and everyone should experience this band live to bad I missed you I was at the show in *Nashville* but I was up at the railing in front of *MISA*
I was at this show on the rail in front of Kanami. I looked around to find you but didn't see you. Glad you had a good time. I was there since 6:30am with the "dawn patrol", you should have come hang with us! The okyuji was a life-changing experience, wasn't it?
Stevie Ray used to play at the Bronco Bowl a lot. It looked like they were having fun and the set sounded great. I bet if Saiki watched a couple Earl Anthony videos, she would have done just fine.
Happy to see that you had such a great experience! When you get to hear amazing music, experience meaningful self reflection, and enjoy some tasty ramen it's been a good day.
Kept my eye out for ya until the show started. Never saw you, but you were about 10 feet behind when the show started and you walked right by my Tundra in the pay lot 😂
I'm happy for you that you were able to go, and that you enjoyed yourself, and I'm looking forward to seeing more Band Maid reactions from you. Now for the important question, did you say "Moe, Moe, Kyun Kyun?" Omajinai Time is the most important part of the Okyu-ji, You MUST join, or at least that's what Miku says.
Such a great vlog on your experience. I really hope that Band Maid will tour here i Europe eventually. Really like your positivity. You seem like a really nice and cool dude👍 I love how all of the band except Miku just went bowling during the Omajinai time😄
Very awesome experience, wasn't it? I saw them live at the Buckhead Theatre in Atlanta on May 19, and I think I'm going to see them again on August 6 in Minnesota, I'm not sure yet but I'm trying to plan it out now.
Thanks for sharing John. Wish I could have been there. Any place Kanami goes with her bonnet though I'm represented in spirit. Thanks for sharing! Now I want ramen though, damnit...
There is nothing better than experiencing the Band Maid live visual, aural and spiritual musical orgasm LIVE! I could not make any of the events on this East Coast leg but I will see them again in August in Sacramento. I LOVE THEM ALL BUT AKANE IS MY DRUM GODDESS. Thanks for sharing John ( Oh and i was a prog rock jazz fusion drummer back in 70's and 80's. The only feeling better than playing live is being with Band Maid Live, online or any other way)
Man I remember right before they came out at my first show. I turned to my buddy that hadnt really heard them yet and said "they are going to start with dominaiton and I'm not going to be ready for it. I just hope that if they black hole its was later in the set so im over the initial shock" nope black hole was track three lol! I made up my mind in that show that I would see them again on the tour because it was just too much to take in with just one serving. Saw them three times this year lol. twice on the rail and thee of the best nights of my life!
Sorry I didn't see you at Nashville. Yes, this Okyu-ji was a sellout. Like you said, you can watch every live video and it still doesn't do justice to how it actually is, at a Band-Maid concert. I learned one thing from this show, Band-Maid sucks at bowling! Oh, and a new word. "Trap-ped".
@@JohnReavesLive I love it that you just even mentioned how much you love ramen. Don't know why, I just do. I really admire and appreciate the msg you are sending AND the love that you're spreading. I've been on a similar journey and I guess I wanna say, thank you. You got a great soul and I think your subs feel it too. I know I do. Keep on rockin'. 🤘🏼😎
They were so fun live! And honestly the crowd was amazing here! If you ever get the chance to see them live it’s worth it! And if you come to a show I’m at we’ll have a blast together! 🙌🙌
I was near front row for the Charlotte show. I had no idea I was almost the only person fist pumping, clapping and jumping up and down the entire time. (Until I watch videos from the back rows) I still don’t get how anyone can just stand there 🤷🏻
What a great set list! The only thing that bothers me is to hear Domination the first song.... I see myself ordering drinks for all my homies and there it go, one of the best choruses known by humaniti and some specific type of aliens and I need to go back to where my friends are pack of a bunch of margaritas just because a f"ck!ng youtuber told me that they are delicious 🤬😡..... thanks god I didn't go to that concert because i'm already pissing me off!!! 😉 Po!

Yup. You can see her little form briefly up front in this video LOL
Thanks for this John
Michelle is great. Her cover of From Now On was unbelievable.
God Saiki's gritty vocals on Manners.. Her live vocals are so good.
Yes!!!! I was just about to post that they were really rocking that groove on Manners. Totally killed it🤘🤘🔥🔥
Saiki in studio recording and on stage, always makes me wonder if it's the same person singing.

You're doing important work too! Band-Maid for example clearly values their "staff" a lot.

I love the Japanese bands.....there's a kind of sincerity there that I really appreciate
Loved the pic with Arlo ! Nashville seems to have brought out the " A " team for Band Maid ! ❤️
It is pretty funny that they played in a bowling alley. I'm glad the show was awesome, and that you had a good time. I'm hoping when they come back in August they'll come up near PA.
I saw another video where in Omanji time all except miku did play some bowling
Their August schedule has been out for at least a month. Nowhere near PA this year. August is mainly rockies area and West coast.
Saiki was the most impressive to me at the show. Sounded fantastic live. She hit every note and was strong through the end of what...20+ songs?

That’s a bummer, but I don’t think we maidiacs would care about that. Although, I can see where their coming from
I think it is more about the COVID, they try to avoid situations that lead some of them get sick and have to cancel the tour. In the past they did "meet and greets" and take pictures with fans. But in the stage they speak to the fans and beave carefree while take a rest.
@@hernantapia2180 VIP ticket holders still get to meet them and get a pic or two !
@Frank Andre no they don't. There isn't a meet and greet anymore.
@@armynurseboy I was misinformed...
Saiki sounded so good on Manners
Nice meeting you John....Fun show !
Was at the show with my kid but I tend to find a spot first and just hang there (Dad pays for the trip/tickets, she buys the beers lol).

15:20 The girl that Saiki gives the mic to in the front row is another TH-camr named Michelle, who flew out from Oakland, CA to see them play.
Cool Stuff! I met fans from all over too at the Charlotte show. Band-Maid fans are truly the best. Glad you had a great time, I know I did.
Thanks a lot for sharing your experience!!! 🤘🔥🤘

what'up. really amazing done,Johnreaveslive~✋
Kudos for sharing your “moment” in the car after the gig.
I’m excited to see how your path develops as a reactor, as a fan, as a musician.

Glad you got to the venue & enjoyed the concert.
Thanks for sharing your video great show

*John* It's great you get to experience *BAND-MAID* live they are such an awesome band and everyone should experience this band live to bad I missed you I was at the show in *Nashville* but I was up at the railing in front of *MISA*
Thank you for the beautiful message!😊
They are amazing live!!
I was there, sorry I missed you. Would have loved to have had some ramen too. Great show! Thanks for sharing your experience.
Awesome!! Glad you liked them as much as you liked them in your reaction videos!!🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤
i was in the front row at this show and it was so fun! Great video!
I was at this show on the rail in front of Kanami.
I looked around to find you but didn't see you. Glad you had a good time.
I was there since 6:30am with the "dawn patrol", you should have come hang with us!
The okyuji was a life-changing experience, wasn't it?
Sugoi¡¡¡ thank you¡¡¡
Stevie Ray used to play at the Bronco Bowl a lot. It looked like they were having fun and the set sounded great. I bet if Saiki watched a couple Earl Anthony videos, she would have done just fine.
Earl Anthony > Mark Roth 😂😂
@@ronoda Earl is a lefty. Us "correct" handers gotta stick together. LOL
Somebody please tell Misa to _wait for the pin setting machine!_
Happy to see that you had such a great experience! When you get to hear amazing music, experience meaningful self reflection, and enjoy some tasty ramen it's been a good day.
This is fantastic.
I was there... I looked for you, but missed ya. It was a great show, the drinks were good as well :).
Kept my eye out for ya until the show started. Never saw you, but you were about 10 feet behind when the show started and you walked right by my Tundra in the pay lot 😂
That was me and my phone blocking your view of Misa's solo. My bad
Had a great time. Me and Johnny had a great time meeting you.
I'm happy for you that you were able to go, and that you enjoyed yourself, and I'm looking forward to seeing more Band Maid reactions from you. Now for the important question, did you say "Moe, Moe, Kyun Kyun?" Omajinai Time is the most important part of the Okyu-ji, You MUST join, or at least that's what Miku says.
Many thanks John,been waiting ur vlog.Great content.Our ladies r awesome.
Such a great vlog on your experience. I really hope that Band Maid will tour here i Europe eventually.
Really like your positivity. You seem like a really nice and cool dude👍
I love how all of the band except Miku just went bowling during the Omajinai time😄
Definitely seeing more younger fans and women in the crowd!
Fantastic vlog man. Would love to see these girls live.
I didn’t know you were coming to Nashville concert. I missed getting a selfie with you. Maybe next time. I drove from St Louis area.
I’m so fuckin stoked!!!! You stole my line!!! Thanks for the vid … the Maids just ROCK!!!
Very awesome experience, wasn't it? I saw them live at the Buckhead Theatre in Atlanta on May 19, and I think I'm going to see them again on August 6 in Minnesota, I'm not sure yet but I'm trying to plan it out now.
Great video!! Thanks for posting!
Great video. Thanks for sharing. Po!
Thanks for sharing John. Wish I could have been there. Any place Kanami goes with her bonnet though I'm represented in spirit. Thanks for sharing! Now I want ramen though, damnit...
Jump Jump Jump
Great Vlog John!. Thank you very much for sharing your experience.
There is nothing better than experiencing the Band Maid live visual, aural and spiritual musical orgasm LIVE! I could not make any of the events on this East Coast leg but I will see them again in August in Sacramento. I LOVE THEM ALL BUT AKANE IS MY DRUM GODDESS. Thanks for sharing John ( Oh and i was a prog rock jazz fusion drummer back in 70's and 80's. The only feeling better than playing live is being with Band Maid Live, online or any other way)
Man I remember right before they came out at my first show. I turned to my buddy that hadnt really heard them yet and said "they are going to start with dominaiton and I'm not going to be ready for it. I just hope that if they black hole its was later in the set so im over the initial shock" nope black hole was track three lol! I made up my mind in that show that I would see them again on the tour because it was just too much to take in with just one serving. Saw them three times this year lol. twice on the rail and thee of the best nights of my life!
☺
Stay cool John Reaves. We'll see you around.
Shame I had not been keeping up with your vids. I was at the show would have tried to say hi. I was up four people from the front.
Thanks so much nice report!
Perfect day :) apperciate your thoughts
Sorry I didn't see you at Nashville. Yes, this Okyu-ji was a sellout. Like you said, you can watch every live video and it still doesn't do justice to how it actually is, at a Band-Maid concert. I learned one thing from this show, Band-Maid sucks at bowling! Oh, and a new word. "Trap-ped".
Dude! I got the SAME shirt in Daytona
It would be great if they start the concert with Moratorium!
I love me some ramen too! Lol.
🙌🙌 lol ramen is my obsession!!
@@JohnReavesLive I love it that you just even mentioned how much you love ramen. Don't know why, I just do.
I really admire and appreciate the msg you are sending AND the love that you're spreading. I've been on a similar journey and I guess I wanna say, thank you. You got a great soul and I think your subs feel it too. I know I do. Keep on rockin'. 🤘🏼😎
I'm also obsessed with ramen, hah. I love making my own, although it's mostly the shoyu type.
@@robwebnoid5763 you make your own? Good on you! 🍜 Yum!
helloo rock not my cup o tea but i'd be down to go
They were so fun live! And honestly the crowd was amazing here! If you ever get the chance to see them live it’s worth it! And if you come to a show I’m at we’ll have a blast together! 🙌🙌
John! How were you in Nashville and I didnt know!?
RAMEN!!!!!!
I was near front row for the Charlotte show. I had no idea I was almost the only person fist pumping, clapping and jumping up and down the entire time. (Until I watch videos from the back rows)
I still don’t get how anyone can just stand there 🤷🏻
Miku: "Omajinai time is the most important time in Okyu-ji."
John: "I have no clue."
You found out, didn't you? Because you were tra-peed.
Band Maid
I attended a few years ago already in love with the band. But I am not a fan of their last few releases.
A bit surprising and disappointing they’re still playing at small venues
What a great set list! The only thing that bothers me is to hear Domination the first song.... I see myself ordering drinks for all my homies and there it go, one of the best choruses known by humaniti and some specific type of aliens and I need to go back to where my friends are pack of a bunch of margaritas just because a f"ck!ng youtuber told me that they are delicious 🤬😡..... thanks god I didn't go to that concert because i'm already pissing me off!!! 😉 Po!
What the F:ck I Need to say it..... DOMINATION ALWAYS NEEDS TO AND IS GOING TO BE THE LAST SONG OF THE SET!!! Po!!!
I came from to Oregon to Nashville to see them live it was absolutely amazing. I’m glad you had a really good time
Glad you enjoyed and had fun!
