>>Finally returning home

Finally I have returned home.
On the plane, I didn't sleep but a little bit, so it was a considerably hard photoshoot, but we were able to take some magnificent photos!
Man, if pumped up enough, can really become something, huh?

Well, the LA live.. somehow it seemed like a famous live house, and magnificently SOLD OUT!!
Although there was a certain someone there who was the spitting image of my senpai (senior/suprerior/someone you look up to) and it made me nervous (laugh), we were able to put on an enjoyable show.
However, America also feels that it is asking for a crazier live, so that will be the focus from now on-

The picture is of GUITAR CENTER's Steve Vai's signed handprint. As one would expect, his fingers are huge! (laugh)
I played on a 2 million yen ($16k USD) guitar, and it had great sound!

>>Cute old man

I have returned!

And now, I am in the middle of make-up...

In Texas, although we had the sign session on 3 days, each time nearly 1,000 people would line up★
Since there was no choice to go over the time limit, and we couldn't write fast, it was inevitable that the last people would not be able to go.

After that, there were also things like a press conference and a fan question and answer, so it was a hard schedule.

The image is of a Texas staff member named Chris. Appearing with a bulging stomach, he was a cute old man.
When anyone would touch his belly, he would say "I'm eight months (along)."

The cheering from before the live started, I will probably not forget it in my entire life. With thanks to those who supported us, we were able to pull off a satisfactory live.

Well then, (I'll update about) Los Angeles sometime later...
