LIVE review : March 4th at CABARET SAUVAGE in Paris

(English below)
お待たせしました。先週３月４日にパリで行われたQWARTZ ELECTRONIC MUSIC AWARDSのLIVE reviewをやっと書かせていただきます。このイベントの詳しいレヴューは、以前このblogでも紹介させていただきましたTRAKSYにも近日中にアップされる予定です。またいつも通りLIVE reviewsにもアップされています。是非そちらもチェックしてみてください。

This time I'd like to write about QWARTZ ELECTRONIC MUSIC AWARDS at CABARET SAUVAGE on 4th of March in Paris. First of all I'd like to say thank you to all the people who came to see my LIVE there. Thank you so much.
We were hit by snow on that day in Paris. Some of them told me that they never had something like this in the past 30 years. Paris looked really beutoiful with snow on that day, but I was quite sure that most of the people who worked for this event didn't want this weather because we could easily imagine that this weather had no small effect on number of people who come to this event. While i was on the way to the venue, I was thinking about this too.

ライヴ当日の３月４日のパリは３０年ぶりの大雪に見舞われて、街中が真っ白でした。普段はそれはそれで奇麗やから問題ないけど、イベントの出演者とオーガナイザにとってこの雪は集客を妨げる弊害以外の何物でもないので、僕も会場に向かいながらちょっと集客を心配してたんです。

When i started playing, it was almost 4:00 am. As we thought, not so many people were at the venue even around midnight. I think that's because of the snow.
Actually there were two stages at there, big one and small one. This time I played at the smaller stage, and each stage were quite close each other. and I think you can imagine that I could hear the sound from the bigger stage quite loud even from the smaller stage. It was really hard time for me during my LIVE show because of this condition. I don't know who was playing at the bigger stage when i started playing, but his sound was really loud and hard, so that it was quite hard to listen to even my own sound during my whole performance.. I was really sorry for people who came to see my LIVE at there... I'd like to play at the bigger stage next time.. I know I'm not famous enough to get that opportunity at the moment. I need to work harder to get better condition.

僕の予想は不運にも的中してしまって、夜中の１２時を越えてもお客さんの数はそんなに増えませんでした。最終的には３００人ぐらいの人達が来てたみたいですが、会場の大きさとイベントの規模から考えると、決して十分な集客とは言えない状況でした。今回このイベントにはメインステージとセカンドステージがあって、僕は後者でのライヴだったんです。リハーサルの時は結構音も良かったしまあええかなって思ってたんですが、イベントが始まってみると、、メインフロアからの音がセカンドステージまでガンガン聴こえてきて、僕のライヴの時もその状況は変わりませんでした。結構辛いライヴになってしまいましたが、本当に良い経験になりました。このイベントの詳しいレヴューは、先ほどお伝えしたTRAKSYに近々ムービーと一緒にアップされる予定です。是非チェックしてみてください。

（オレはやったぜ）（maybe he's saying "I can open every doors.")

今日のpolcoです。今日も僕が少し目を離したスキに家のドアの鍵を勝手に開けて一人で散歩に行ってました。。今までも結構頻繁に一人で脱走したりしていたので車に轢かれたりしないか心配やったんですけど、以前にpolcoが一人で近所の公園前の道路で信号待ちをしてる所を知り合いが目撃したそうです。一応ちゃんと道路では止まってくれているみたいなので、ちょっと安心。でもやっぱり心配です。僕の実家には、彼が開ける事のできないドアはもうないみたい。困った。

Here's today's Polco. Again he went out from my house for a walk by himself today.. He's done it quite many times so far. I'm really worried if he is involved in a traffic accident someday if he keeps doing this. But once one of my friends told me that he saw polco was waiting for the light to change at the cross road near the park. He was trying to go to the park by himself. I'm glad to know that he can wait for the lights by himself, but I'm still worried about him.. At the moment, There is no doors which he can not open in my house.. mmm we have to do something for this problem..
