Mexico City
Theme：RINA

---

Our first time in Mexico City in three years
And performance ＃5 of our tour
It was so passionate and really exciting this year too
I personally had many regrets
In regards to our live show three years ago
I'm so happy that we were able
To play a perfectly great live show at the same live house
The brightness of the Mexican fans
Always give us energy and courage
There were also fans there who cried and were waiting for us all this time
Each time I feel like I'm about to cry
We're so grateful



This time too a lot of media people
Came to do press coverage
One of the interviewers
Who I thought had a really nice voice
Was the voice actor for Satoshi/Ash
For the Mexican dub of Pokemon! So surprised
He said「ポケモンゲットだぜ！ (Pokemon getto daze!; I caught a Pokemon!)」
In Japanese for us haha
Such great hospitality




When you walk around
The colorful, beautiful city, it seems like an idea might hit you



At night we had an after party with everyone
Since we were here, I had some tequila
And I got used to the nice feeling in one gulp

A stimulating, awesome city

Spoiler:

Did something happen the last time they went to Mexico City? I'm wondering what Rina's "many regrets" were about. I guess I wasn't paying attention at the time.

@spacecadet

I dont remember now but I do know everyone was delighted to see them again, it must be a great feeling to be loved by so many people.

I think she is referring to the argument they had during the 2015 tour. The one we see in the DVD "Scandal documentary film Hello World"

Yep, exactly this. Although, oddly enough, soundcheck took a really long time this time too.

Do you know if the current tour is filmed for an upcoming documentary?

Japanese Bands are far more civilized than British bands anyway, when we had disagreements it would involve people getting beaten up

Thanks for the translation.

Never seen anyone filming, unlike during the world tour, so no, it is not being filmed.

Wow looking at the size of the crowd in those photos, I almost feel like SF let the band down!

Well, Mexico City does have quite a few more people than SF...

Yeah but the SF crowd definitely did their part to be loud and excited!

awww bummer, I was hoping they would make at least a DVD of the concert. I'd buy it in a heartbeat, I'd give anything to have a recording of this tour.

I would too, but I'm sure it's a logistical thing more than anything... even if they wanted to, carting all that filming and sound equipment around with them, getting it set up with all the different venues, etc. probably just wouldn't even be possible. I think the time thing is the biggest issue. You've got to be able to go in, scout the venues in advance, do camera and microphone placements, test various camera movements, test recording from the mixing board, set up monitoring, and all sorts of other stuff. They were only in each location for like 2 days, so there's no way they could have done it. Even if you send someone in advance for the initial planning, you still need more time than that to get everything set up and tested before the show.

I'm just hoping we have *some* kind of live disc release from them soon... I think it's been about 2 years since the anniversary festival one. They've really spoiled us by doing one a year previous to this. Most western bands don't do anything close to that, if they do any at all! (Though a lot of the bigger Japanese acts actually do; that's one thing I love about Japanese music.)

@spacecadet

It is not all bad, they may be unofficial but there are loads of videos of the tour uploaded to Youtube.

Yeah... shame my recordings sound so, so bad. I wouldn't upload them probably, but I wish I could at least listen to them lol
