arcorhyme live at Grand Cru (vol.7): report
On Tuesday I went to arcorhyme's monthly dinner show at Après-midi Grand Cru. My friend Peter in visit from Australia also came along.
Like last month, there was a set by Love of Peace and Hope, the GS cover band of Takanami K-tarō together with The Phantom Gift's Sally Kubota (bass) and Charly Morita (drums). This one went first.
I especially really liked the last song they played, "jiyū ni aruite ai shite (Now the time for love)" by Sawada Kenji's band PYG, on which the three guys sang chorus that sounded really great. Go hear the original at YouTube. I'll have to pick that up on 7" sometime. :)
Then arcorhyme came on stage, and after one song performed just by the two, they were joined by Sally and Charly for the rest of the show! The big highlight was a brand new song called "code name=Lonely Heart", a ballad (if I recall right) on which K-tarō sings leads. I really hope we'll hear it again soon on a new release!
Set list:
Sawada Kenji's reijin / Candies' yasashii akuma / Chiaki Naomi's X+Y=LOVE / Hirota Mieko's kawaii uso / arcorhyme's code name=Lonely Heart / arcorhyme's Charade / arcorhyme's aoi neko
Peter is a big Pizzicato Five fan, he also loves the early Sony releases, and it was his first time he got to see K-tarō. Needless to say he had a great time. :)
The next edition should be on Tuesday, November 18.
