and the time that can't be the same as before

why is it shining
...

Kazuki Akiyama put down the microphone, "Utsu-san, the aftertaste of the snare drum is a bit short, please help lengthen it."

Utsu Naomoto, who was behind him, gave him an "ok" gesture, and then repeated this paragraph again.

It's just after eleven o'clock in the evening, and the location is the Budokan.

The concert will start immediately. After more than ten days of running-in, the bands finally have some tacit understanding.

I have been rehearsing in Being's interior before, and the concert will start the day after tomorrow.

So after negotiating with the venue, I used the evening time to come here for rehearsal.

At this time, there was no one here, except for a few performers on the stage, there were also some staff members in the audience.

Even this kind of rehearsal is only available for two nights. It can be said that the time is very tight.

Because I have rehearsed for a long time before, the rehearsal at the Budokan is more about getting used to the venue.

A few people tried another song, and they were ready to pack up their things and end today's rehearsal.

Kazuki Akiyama also helped with equipment and equipment, and cleaned up the place before dawn.

After the torment was over, it was almost early morning, and I wanted to go to the recording studio to see if Izumi Sakai was there.

But he was really tired, so he went back to his apartment first, washed up briefly and then fell asleep. He still had things to do tomorrow.

...

The next morning, Kazuki Akiyama drove to Musashino Art University.

"Brother" Akiyama Shinto jumped at the school gate and waved to him.

Next to him are a few young people who are about his age, who I saw last time, and who should be his high school classmates.

"Hello!" After getting off the car, Akiyama Kazuki knocked his younger brother on the head first, and then greeted the three young people beside him.

"Qiu Shan-san" and the others bowed towards him excitedly.

Kazuki Akiyama smiled, then took out a few tickets from his pocket and handed them to them. "Please take care of me"

"Si Guoyi!" The two boys named Muto and Takahashi cheered excitedly, and the long-haired girl named Yumiko even covered her mouth with tears of excitement.

This is what Kazuki Akiyama promised them at the beginning, and when the concert was held, each of them would give them a ticket.

Now the tickets for Kazuki Akiyama Tokyo are sold out on the first day of sale, so one can imagine how popular it is.

They really might not be able to buy it on their own. Now seeing Kazuki Akiyama gifting it to him personally, wouldn't he be excited?

"I said before, my brother will definitely not forget this matter, how about you, if you don't have money."

Akiyama Shinto boasted triumphantly on the side, looking as if he was proud of it.

"Hay", "Hay"…

His three classmates kept nodding their heads in agreement, but kept looking at the tickets over and over again.

"You guy" Akiyama Kazuki smiled and touched his head, "Are you ready?"

"Akiyama Shinto, join us!" He immediately gave a warrior salute while speaking.

"Pa" Kazuki Akiyama knocked his head unceremoniously, "Okay, let's go quickly, or we will be late if we don't leave."

"Hay" Akiyama Shinto clutched his head, frightened for a second.

After saying goodbye to his three classmates, Kazuki Akiyama drove straight to Hamamatsucho Station in Minato.

Just about 10 minutes after stopping the car, a middle-aged couple in their 40s came out of the station with big bags and small bags.

"Father, mother~!" Akiyama Shinto was the first to rush up, and his mother Qianxia happily shook her arm, then took the bag in her hand and picked it up.

Kazuki Akiyama also walked forward with a smile, "Dad, Mom", and after saying hello, he also took the luggage from his father.

"Well, he looks more and more like an adult." After examining him carefully, his mother nodded in satisfaction.

Although his father Masaki Akiyama did not speak, the flash of satisfaction and pride in his eyes could not be concealed from his mother who was with him day and night.

Even though she saw it, Qian Xia didn't try to expose him, and still let him maintain his father's reservedness.

A group of people talked and laughed, walked to the car, Kazuki Akiyama booked a hotel suite for them.

The place where I live is a single apartment, which cannot accommodate so many people.

This time I let them come over, of course, to watch my own concert.It was my first concert, and it was still in the Budokan.

Naturally, such a place with special commemorative significance should also share this moment with family members.

And this is also my mother's wish. Seeing that the smile on her face has not disappeared, I know how happy I am.

The figure of urging me to practice the piano when I was a child still seems to be vivid in my mind.

At that time, the strict she was not less angry with herself, but now it may be because she has grown up, or it may be because she is older.

There was no longer the sternness of the past on his face, and what was left was only full of love and the unspeakable reluctance.

After setting them up, I briefly showed them around my residence, and went to have a meal with the whole family.

In the afternoon, I handed them over to Akiyama Manto, because the concert will start tomorrow, and I will go to the Being meeting later to confirm the details of the stage layout effect.

These are all inseparable from myself, I can only wait for the end of the concert to catch up with them.

...

Budokan, a gymnasium built for the 64 Tokyo Olympics, has a history of almost 30 years.

Looking down from a high altitude, it looks like a huge green octagonal umbrella, supported above the ground.

It is said that the large beam under the top was designed in the original form of Mount Fuji.

Since the Beatles held five consecutive concerts here in 66 and became the first band to hold a concert in Budokan, this place has also become a holy place in the hearts of Japanese musicians.

Subsequently, foreign bands and domestic artists held concerts here one after another, and the symbolic status of the "highest palace" here became more and more stable.

At this time, all the people who can hold concerts at the Budokan are well-known entertainers and big-name singers. It is far from the era when later generations can just give money, and voice actors and ACG people can come to it casually.

At present, those who want to hold concerts at Budokan are basically first-line artists who have confidence in themselves and can achieve the goal of "full house".

So for a singer, especially a newcomer, it is more like a milestone and a symbol of popular stars.

And because the Budokan is a closed place, the number of people it can accommodate is more suitable.The sound effect of the concert is absolutely in the forefront among several major venues.

Therefore, the singing skills of singers and artists are also a test. "Full house" and unanimous praise from the society are the signs of the success of Budokan concerts.

When Kazuki Akiyama arrived in the evening, the staff who were busy arranging the stage had seen it everywhere.

Before he had time to say hello one by one, he immediately threw himself into the preparation work.

The layout of the stage cannot be done in just one night, and I will still be busy tomorrow.

After the stage is set up, there will be on-site rehearsals to ensure the safety of the concert.
