Yes, seriously The Strypes will come to Japan.
They are one of my recent favorite bands.
The band's Japanese agent announced they will perform in Tokyo on 24th April.
I am so excited that I can see their performance in Japan.
(though I haven't got a ticket, I can 'possibly' see them)
Though they look like they are still in elementary school.
with your eyes closed, can you believe they are only 15 years old?
Is this the song teen boys band choose to cover?
I'm in love with their taste of music.
But, here's a problem.
I can't tell every single of their names.
So, I searched their names for the first time and will leave memos here.
(from left)
Ross Farrelly :lead vocals & harmonica
Josh McClorey :lead guitar & vocals
Pete O'Hanlon :bass guitar & harmonica
Evan Walsh :drums
Okay, maybe I could memorize them.
Definitely Maybe.....
(maybe not, because for me, japanese, European names are too hard to remember)
I think they'll play some cover (such as Beatles, Who, Rolling Stone etc)
So I should listen to more Rockn'roll tunes by the time they come.
「エルトン・ジョンがライブを観た！」とかいうニュースで初めて知ったストライプス。
最初に聴いたときの衝撃は忘れられない、だってみんな小学生みたいに幼いのに、
やってる曲はみんな思いっきりモッズやロックンロール全盛のころの曲！
最近のジェイク・バグといい、彼らといい、ＵＫロック界はどうなってるんだ！？
（ストライプスはアイルランドだけど、ＵＫのレコ社と契約してるし、まぁＵＫで ダメ？笑）
一目（というか一聴き）で恋をしてしまったストライプスを、こんなに早く日本で観れるなんて！！
ていうか、まだ１５歳なのに大丈夫！？そもそも人はいる入るの！？という不安もありますが、
なにより来てくれるのが嬉しくって嬉しくて
これは、何が何でもチケット獲らなきゃ！かなり気合入っちゃってる
東京とか交通費けっこう痛いけど・・・行くって決めちゃったからね！
とにかく、彼らの曲をまだ聴いたことない人は聴いてみてください。
このブログを一体何人の人が見ているかは知らないけど（かなり望み薄）
If you haven't listened to their tunes, check it out right away.
