"No, it was fun today. But it's not enough. I'd like to buy it. Anyway, I want to use about 50,000 (laughs). I would like to scatter it in such a place," says Ishizuka. At the end of the interview with the typhoon club, where the shopping switch was turned on. Currently, they are performing at various live houses not only in Kyoto but also throughout the country. Let's hear your impressions of the first one-man performance at Umeda Club Quattro last night.

 

 

ーーHow was your first live performance at Umeda Club Quatro last night?

 

"Of course, the sound is good. I don't have any anxiety. It was easy to play." (Ishizuka)

"Sure. It was easy to play" (Yamamoto)

"Of course the equipment is good. There is also a shower. I couldn't enter because I didn't have time." (Ina)

 

What are your memories of a live house called Quartro?

 

"I lived in Osaka until high school, so when I had Kuatro in Shinsaibashi, I often went to watch live. "Miki Instruments" (Ishizuka)

"It's history or history. I felt something like the power of the place called Quattro. Let's actually play "(Ina)

"I have a feeling of when I was a Piccadilly (Umeda of the movie theater) The space is the same, and there are still seats from the cinema era."

 

ーーー Have you ever noticed something at the live show last night?

 

"The live performance is the best since now is a band. I was able to confirm that in yesterday's Quatro." (Ishizuka)

"It was interesting. Now it's no longer affected by the environment, but I thought it's like that." (Ina)
