Plastic Tree Update

Plastic Tree just opened their official Facebook account. When they first published it,many of kurages think that this is not the official account (especially in their info Ryutaro's name written as Ryutaro Nakayama),but they already stated it on their official website that it is their official facebook page. 

Please don't hesitate to like the official facebook page of Plastic Tree!! (^o^)/


Also on June 10th, Plastic Tree held a free live in Taiwan. The concert celebrated the band’s Taiwanese release of their latest album “Ammonite” on June 9th (previously released in Japan in April). Although this was the sixth time Plastic Tree performed in Taiwan, it was their first free live.

Despite the heavy rain that day, approximately 1,000 fans showed up to listen to the band perform for about 30 minutes.

Vocalist Arimura Ryutaro was the MC for the night, and he impressed fans with his humble attitude. The star expressed, “We’re a Japanese band and we’re so grateful to everyone in Taiwan. We want to thank you all for so many things”. The thankful comment was made in reference to all the support their Taiwanese fans gave to Japan after the Great Tohoku Earthquake.

Ryutaro even say thanks to the Taiwan fans in his twitter: @Pla_ryutaro: 高雄アンモナイト、無事に終了ー。メランコリックの雨はまるで祝福でした。三日間、ライブづくし。謝謝。謝謝。謝謝。打ち上げ。今日という今日は呑む (ﾟOﾟ)

Sasabuchi's cuckoo disband

as I already posted here a long time ago about Sasabuchi Hiroshi's new band called 'Cuckoo'. According to Bucchi's blog, they are now already disbanded. They decided to disband on 30 May 2011. Not much left to say about their disband since they are only released one maxi single which included three song titled "cuckoo no su no ue de" and the band was quite unactive lately.

CLICK HERE to download their song.


First maxi-single release from Cuckoo is out on 10 November 2010 and the band itself is consist of three members which are Sharaku Kobayashi (metronome), Ao Sakurai (Cali Gari) and Hiroshi Sasabuchi (ex-Plastic Tree).
Lets hope that Sasabuchi-kun will continue his works again in another band because I think he is a good drummer.

[Kuro Tent] Plastic Tree - Psycho Garden

Now I just want to share for you an old video from Plastic Tree.. its from Kuro Tent live, and the song is Psycho Garden..

Lately I'm in the mood to see the old Pura-tachi when Akira's hair is still red and they perform with a lot of energy.. and the drummer is still Takashi Oshodani..

well, I love this song and I love their perform here. Ryutarou is so full of energy *look on how he smash the microphone stand* and other member too as well.. look at nearly the end of the song where Ryutaro's sitting and headbang and also Tadashi, Akira and Takashi's energetic play that makes Tadashi seems like collapse at the end of the song *of course he is not really collapse*

PSYCHO GARDEN wa saikoo~~

Ryutaro's new GADGET GROW image

sorry about my late update on this, but if you don't know, GADGET GROW website already updated their recent photo gallery, including the picture with Ryutaro as their model. There is also another info where Gadget Grow in Sendai held a handshake session this month with Ryutaro Arimura (the event was succesfully held yesterday).

So here is the pic of GADGET GROW gallery in May.

somehow I think Ryutaro is look like a doll there. (i think of a porcelain doll when I see this pic,lol) but still he is adorable as always. and I like the clothes that he wears. somehow it looks so warms and it suits him well.

if you guys want to know more about GADGET GROW products, please check their website on http://www.gadgetgrow.jp/html/index.shtml and if you want to see their gallery, check it out here http://www.gadgetgrow.jp/html/gallery/index.shtml

Kuroyume and lynch

During the DAY OF LIGHT in ZEPP Osaka on June 2nd, Kuroyume isn't performing alone, but they are also invites another visual kei bands lynch. as their guest star. This is confirmed on Kiyoharu's twitter and also lynch. member twitter. lynch. played several song and they also covering Kuroyume's song [toge].

This is lynch. playlist during the DAY OF LIGHT live in ZEPP Osaka. (taken from one of the member's twitter)

is it a sign that someday Kiyoharu will invites lynch. to be on one of (maybe) tribute album? I don't know yet. But I also heard that Jitterbug was also invites to perform in DAY OF LIGHT. (didn't know anything about it). I wish someday Plastic Tree will also get a chance to perform with Kiyoharu or Kuroyume, since Kiyoharu always said that he is a fans of Plastic Tree.


Sorry if this update is so short m(_ _)m
