wow,3 new songs is wonderful !

Interesting, it has been a while since they've played Hitotsu Dake...

About the 3 new songs... It's quite interesting when it comes to their titles. Onegai Navigation sounds like a fun song... If we get another 3 or so more new songs then we should also expect a new album I guess

"Can Beer" make me think of the drama "Hotaru no Hikari" (ホタルノヒカリ).
Those who'd watched the drama should know what I mean haha!

Congrats! TGE ,i am envy  .pinch.

I cant wait the new song !

Woooow. It's been a while since they last played Hitotsu Dake and they were very young back then!
About the new songs.... can't wait to hear them!

it's a great setlist 

IMAGE would be the likely new single

Soooo loking forward to friday 

^ have fun!

Thank you!
I'll arrive in Japan on Friday morning, then entrance and check-in procedure and in the evening there's the concert. This will be a super-monster-hammer-day for me (because I probably won't be able to sleep during the flight) but after I've fallen asleep for I guess 24 hours I will write a report! Promise! 

Hasenfu-san reporto yay~~ .clap.

Have fun there

Anything about the setlist of day 2?
.stars.

The SCANDAL band twitter tweeted something about that -

"内容は10日間が終わるまで、我々とみんなとの内緒で！"

"Until the 10 days are over, the contents of the lives will be a secret between us and those who came!"

They want the set list to remain a secret. I'm guessing SH will honor the girls' request?

Ohh, I guess we'll also be respecting that notice. 
Well then, I can patiently wait for Hasenfu's write up a week later, and this would also help her to rest more and still be enjoying to that memory

No, we'll allow the set lists to be posted. I mean, why not, if they've been posted online by Japanese fans already? The set list for the first day can be found here on page 2 of this thread.

It's just that the set list for the second night hasn't been posted anywhere yet. However, a fan that went said that they played 16 songs, that the set list really differed from the first night's, and that they played 2 new songs that they didn't play the previous night.


Edit: Well, the band keeps saying that the content of the lives will remain a "secret" until all 10 performances are done and all of the Japanese fans are respecting their wishes, so we too on SH should respect their wishes as well.

I have a feeling that the band will announce something pretty big *cough*new album/arena live dvd*cough* on the last day of the tour. 

5 new songs so far; it'll be interesting to see what they sound like. I have a feeling that whoever wrote Can Beer (I'm gonna guess Tomo since she has an affinity with food and song titles ), called it Can Beer on purpose instead of Beer Can lol. I'd love to see why, haha.

Ah, that's right. According to a few fans that went to the first day, SCANDAL is playing the new song that'll be their next single. Until the song and details are 100% confirmed by the band themselves (at the end of the tour, no doubt), I won't post which song here + I'd like to ask that no one else post it here either because possibly incorrect info shouldn't be passed around. Just letting you guys know that it looks like there are some news to look forward to at the end of the tour~

Also, "Can Beer" seems like it was romanized a bit incorrectly. As "缶ビール" (kan biiru; canned beer) is an actual word in Japanese, I'm sure the correct title is the same. So, romanized, it should actually be "Kan Biiru" with the English translation as "Canned Beer."

Ah thanks for the info, Jade!

I wouldn't be surprised if the band didn't release an album by the end of the year tbh. Because they're producing and composing everything themselves, of course it would take longer than the times it took in previous years. Although, they do have enough songs (that we know of) to be released in a mini-album so it just really depends on what the management and the band decide. But then again, they could also just be following their usual single-before-album schedule.

Haha that makes so much more sense lol. Canned beer. Maybe it's a continuation of Orange Juice or it could also be something completely different lol. I really can't wait for these new songs~

Also on the tracklist from other sites there are a few details.

Onegai Navigation
-Unconfirmed info-

Kan Biiru
Vocals by TOMOMI, maybe it's like Kill the virgin or Houkago 1H.

Really looking forward to these songs .love.

I think it's really fair to assume that TIMO is involved is a way or another in the Can Beer song lol ^^ I expect it to be lyrics and vocals but not music.

Onegai Navigation by -Removed-? Well that would be a good news as it means they keep on doing their songs from now on like they started since the album STANDARD basically.

I think they have enough material now to get a new album before the end of the year after all these days they spend recording. But they can do whatever they want (or want the company needs), maybe we will got one this year, maybe one early 2015.

Personally I think we will get a single and album in November, but that is just my opinion and my hope =P September/October is the end of the tour, festivals so I suppose they will release something after that period (end October; early November?).

I don't see any reason why they would not release something new after that period because as said earlier they have recorded new songs. Well unless they will take some vacations and then come back in December with a single, an album and then the tour promo.

Onegai Navigation by MAMI/RINA? Well that would be a good news as it means they keep on doing their songs from now on like they started since the album STANDARD basically.

Well, in their blog posts, the girls have thoroughly highlighted the fact that they're the ones that are composing the music as well, so more than likely, I think that Tomo might be involved in the composing aspect as well as the lyrical. Last time we heard a song composed by Tomo was in 2011 for Very Special, and even then Rina was also credited for composing too. 

Gotta admit though, it seems that Mami's really found her calling to be a composer more-so than a lyricist imo, but honestly she's great at both.

I do think that they will release something soon, more likely a single, but judging by other artists, both Western and in Japan too, those who compose, write and arrange everything generally take longer to release an album, e.g ONE OK ROCK's last album was released in early 2013, SEKAI NO OWARI's last album was in 2012, but of course there are a few exceptions such as UVERWORLD, who generally take only about a year to release a new album. 

I am hoping for a new album, but who knows, like what we've both mentioned, it really is up to them and their management to decide what'll happen. 

Anyways, mods, I apologise for going drastically off-topic lol~

Do we have news about the other set lists?

@syakmp: Maybe TIMO will start o compose music more now that they all doing it but I think she is more interested in the lyrics part. But we will see! About their next album you are right but don't forget that it's unlikely that all the songs will be 100% SCANDAL, It will most likely be a mix (their songs and "normal songs" with the help from other composers) so it's not like suddenly they would need 1.5 or 2 years to release an album. For that too we will see hehe .love.

i'm kinda predicting that some announcement will happen tomorrow... because they're already halfway through... but I can wait until the 10th day for some announcements

HaRuRiNaMaMiToMo wrote:Do we have news about the other set lists?

The Japanese fans are seriously taking to heart what the band has said about the content being a secret until the end of the tour and are not saying what the set lists have been.

hanautasancho wrote:i'm kinda predicting that some announcement will happen tomorrow... because they're already halfway through... but I can wait until the 10th day for some announcements

Again, they've been pretty admant with saying how the content of the tour is a secret until ALL of the performances have been completed (check out scandal_band's many tweets about it), so it's pratically guaranteed that they will NOT be announcing anything until the entire tour is done.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

My friend went to last night's live, day 4 @ Akasaka BLITZ, and he confirmed that what I had mentioned here is definitely a fact: SCANDAL truly is playing the new song that'll be their next single. Again, I won't post which song here + I'd like to ask that no one else post it here either until the details are 100% confirmed and publicly announced by the band themselves. But yes, it does look like a good announcement is coming at the end of the tour.

Since no one ever posted the set lists for day 2+3, I'm now rethinking that we too should follow what the band's saying and not post anymore set lists until the tour is 100% over.
