Band Maid live shows are a big reason for their passionate support. Their fun interaction with each other extends to the audience. They don’t have “concerts;” they have “Okiyujis” or “servings.” And because you mentioned witchcraft? A standard practice in every okiyuji is when the band takes a break and Miku 🌹 has her magic spell time, called “Omajinai Time.” This is probably why so many people are spellbound over these Maids. Probably 🤷🏻
The Maids performing one of their (two) most performed songs: Freedom and Real Existence. The Maids in this MV are pure perfection, aren't they? I mean, what can you fault? And those faces... their attitude... their music... their playing... their story... and their joy! Band-Maid is a world treasure, imo! Thanks, Wyllow, for bringing the world's best hard rock band to your viewers!
Not only did you get Akane's gorilla kiss to envoke her drum gods to show her dominance, you also got Kanami's Saiki's Salute to show her affinity for Saiki
With all that new info I'm guessing that you know about all about "Pigeon Po" now. If not- Miku (Red rose) is an 810 year old pigeon and ends each sentence with the word Po, which in Japan is the sound a pigeon makes.
Everyone will have their favorite "maid", as BAND-MAID are loaded with talent and charisma to boot. But my eyes are on Akane the most - whenever I can get a glimpse of her, as (thankfully) in this song! She is a burning ray of of hard-hitting happiness. :D
I would reccomend buying Senheisser headphones refurbished direct from the company....you can get a $200 headset for $100 with the same warranty....enjoy
The surprisingly-good cheapskate option -- YINYOO KZ ZSN Pro Earbuds aka US$20 in-ear monitors -- several brands copy the same design I think. Survived my washer, so the waterproof claim isn't BS.
Depends, while they're a well known brand, there are some big differences in frequency responses. I started with HD280's, then a HDM280-13, and they were great, apart from wear and tear issues over time. A wire broke in the latter and while getting around to it I picked up a different model and it had a HUGE "bass" bias - I found the curve on-line and was able to correct it with an equaliser, though, and I recommend ANYONE with any interest in music do the same. I use a Creative Labs' AE-9 s/card and break-out box, which has the 280 correction built in as an option.
For ear buds with a neutral response on a budget I would recommend Sennheiser MX375's. Personally I can't use the ear canal types and have found the '375's to be the best for listening to all types of music. From ~£18.50 on Amazon, depending on delivery options
Honestly 😢.....NOW ....I can see why Paul Reed Smith gifted Kanami her own line of PRS guitars.....😮....... the chick is just BAD ASS! It's almost like I just saw Van Halen play for the first time in 1979( yes, I'm that old......LOL 😂)
Kanami just became the 1st Japanese artist to ever get a signature PRS guitar. At a special event, Paul Reed Smith personally presented it to her as a surprise while the rest of the MAIDs were in attendance. It was very emotional.
Kanami's main guitar is a private stock one-of-one. The PRS signature model in her name is limited to 200 copies and they will differ from personal instrument.
@@stephenchigwidden7504 I agree with one person who said (paraphrasing), "I wish I had $6,000 to buy an instrument I can't even play, because I want THAT guitar."😲 It's almost as sexy as Kanami!🤏
@@stephenchigwidden7504 Kanami’s private stock instrument is probably valued around $15,000. The signature model, around $6,000, and certainly at first, will be flipped for more.
Hello from Merseyside 👍 Lead singer Saiki's style is 🔥 when you get good close views. Larger comfortable open-back headphones, sennheiser, beyerdynamic etc... Get clarity on MISA's awesome bass lines. She's busy as usual in this song 💪👌
@@WyllowWisp I use noise cancelling headphones. You hear nothing outside them and everything inside them. I take them off to eat lol. Glad you like our Maids, they're a breath of fresh air these days. They're like watching an acrobatic performance without a net, always on the edge of their capability.
Wyllow Wisp , Thank you for continuing down the BAND-MAID Pigeon hole , Akane is the Happiest drummer on the planet , MISA !!! MISA !!! MISA !!! the Barefoot Bass Assassin .
great live performance! ♥ yer hair! Should also check out The Warning! Both bands are big fans of each other I suggest these The Warning songs: Money, Automatic Sun, Sick, Enter Sandman (official video with Alessia Cara), Evolve (live VMAs) & Dust To Dust (live Teatro)
Please try "THE WARNING" 3 sisters from Mexico 19 22 24yrs old.. Best Trio since RUSH.. These young ladies will blow your mind I promise.. try DUST TO DUST/DULL KNIVES (Cut better) LIVE AT THE PEPSI CENTER CDMX .. or EVOLVE LIVE AT THE MTV VMA'S 2023.. they also did a collaboration with Band Maid... 🌎✌️
For a fun experiment you could react to "No God" official audio, online live, and crowd live for a good example of why live is better. Or just the MV and official live for Domination.
The bad sound is your earphones. Band-Maid's live recordings are really great. You are missing a lot using those headphones. Band-Maid's live sound is panned - different guitars in different ears etc, as it would be if you were stood in front of them. Thank you for reviewing our Maids!
I actually do wonder if you had swapped the left and right side of those earphones 😛 Ok, jokes aside, this specific song, "Freedom", is just perfect for sitting back, relaxing, and enjoying without thinking too hard (at least to me). I do not know if others feel the same way, but I have always felt this is a pretty chill easy-listening song. Glad you enjoyed it too!
I think you need better headphones - the audio for this is fine, ok, it’s not the best mix, but there’s nothing in it that should be distracting. Miku is your favorite, you just don’t know it yet, Po. 😜
@@DaveJonesVideo I'm currently trying to save for some, yes! I have a pair of Sony for my walks, but the Bluetooth doesn't connect to my laptop cause they're defective - they also don't play very loud. So... For now it has to be that, better than nothing!

When Akane gets behind her kit and starts to play she basically turns into Animal from the Muppets; all smiles and flying sticks. 🥁

your headphones.
You need a good set of proper headphones to get all the bass or MISA and Akane.
@@zer0tzer0 I know 😭 Currently trying to save for some, hopefully soon...
forget those iPhone style earbuds. Get a pair of real "over the ear" headphones
