Chapter 246 Cheers from the audience

"To present this performance to everyone today, I can't do it on my own.

Let me introduce some of my musicians, first of all our guitarist Shinichiro Ota! "

As Kazuki Akiyama's voice fell, the lights on the stage came to Shinichiro Ota, and he immediately picked up the guitar and played a solo that was like a show.

The audience also responded with enthusiastic cheers and applause.

"And drummer Naomoto Utsu!"

A fast and passionate drum sounded, and the fast-beating drumsticks could hardly catch its figure under the light.

Such an exciting and cool performance made the audience scream.

Then came the bass player and the keyboard player in turn, each performed a unique skill.

The audience loves to watch this, whether it sounds good or not is another matter, exciting and cool is the most important thing.

The time to sing a few songs and communicate with the audience is called MC time, or Microphone Controller Time.

After all, a concert can’t just be about singing, and there is no communication with the audience throughout the whole process. Not to mention that there is no atmosphere, the audience will also find it boring.

If that's the case, it's just for listening to music, what's the difference between buying a CD and listening to it at home.

When the MC time ended, Kazuki Akiyama sang a few songs with more intense melodies in the album, and more than half of the concert time had passed.

"The following song is a bit special."

"Eh?"

The audience below responded with exclamations of doubt.

"It's a song that hasn't been released yet, and the arrangement has just been completed recently.

It is a gift specially prepared for everyone today, so friends who come here today are lucky to have a taste of it in advance. "

"Hey!", "Wow!~" All kinds of exclamations came from the audience in an instant. Although the tone was different, the mood of surprise was the same.

To be honest, Kazuki Akiyama is a little fond of this kind of surprise feeling, last time he sang the title song of the unreleased album in Live House in advance.

The expressions of the audience screaming in surprise are really refreshing to be in it.

Damn, it was pretended by this kid again.

"The song was inspired by a proverb you've probably all heard 'to praise a sunny day wait for the sunset',
I hope everyone can persevere to the end on their own way, and I will give you a song "If you want to admire the sunny day, please wait for the evening". "

Kazuki Akiyama and the people behind nodded, counting the beat, and then a burst of dynamic drums and guitars ignited the atmosphere in the field.

Another pop-rock song, but one that suited the mood of the venue.

science は正しいと言うsuperstition

Because we all grew up with the superstitious belief that science is infallible

ねえ青い火の姆で

And would you like to stand on a hill with a green hat

夕暮れに吹く风を待ってみないかい
waiting for the breeze at dusk
...

Several musicians behind him played and acted as harmony.It's not perfect, but that's the concert.

What's more, it's a new song, a concert limited edition.The audience cheered to the beat while listening to the new song attentively.

The last beat of the drum fell, and the audience immediately screamed and cheered.

"Does it sound good?" Kazuki Akiyama wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked them with a smile.

"Sounds good!~"

"Well, it's definitely worth coming here today, right?"

"Hay!~"

"It's a pity that time passed quickly, and the concert has come to an end.

Finally, this song "Until the End of the World" is given to everyone. I hope that my music can accompany you all the time, until the end of the world and the end of time. "

"Go ahead, Dad!" The audience cheered enthusiastically.

As the last ending song of the nominal concert, it is natural to choose the highest and most familiar hit song.

And the title of this album is the one with the most obvious SHOCK feeling among his rock songs, and of course it is a well-deserved ending song.

When the familiar and fierce melody sounded on the stage again, the audience all stood up, jumping and dancing together with him.

This popular song, which audiences have been waiting for for a long time, finally met with you after waiting for more than an hour.

Needless to say about the scene, densely waving fluorescent sticks and arms, like waves of light, rushed to the stage from all directions.

Even the audience, who had been sitting quietly in the seat of the relatives, couldn't help shaking their bodies and keeping pace with the beat.

Sakai Izumi also nodded his head and beat the beat, and looked around casually with his eyes.

I really saw a lot of acquaintances at this glance, but since she stopped being on the show in a low-key way, not many people noticed her on the road.

Naturally, the same is true here, hey, that is Morigaka Chisato?

Izumi Sakai glanced at a young girl who was staring at the stage intently. Although she made some disguises, she was still recognized by her attentively.

Izumi Sakai blinked, then turned his eyes away as if nothing had happened, and continued to watch Kazuki Akiyama's performance on the stage.

戻らない时だけが
and the time that can't be the same as before

He Guhui い て は
why is it shining
...

As the last line of lyrics fell, the cheers of the audience followed closely.

Kazuki Akiyama took off the microphone in front of him, "Thank you very much for your care tonight, so goodbye~", he and the musicians bowed to the audience.

As his words fell, the lights on the stage gradually dimmed.The figure of him and the musicians gradually disappeared.

Of course it's not really over, how could such a large-scale concert not have an encore segment.

He and the musicians returned to the backstage, and the musicians took this time to rest quickly.

Kazuki Akiyama couldn't, it was still a quick change process.I sat down and drank some water again. The rhythm of the song in the second half was much faster, and the burden on the body and voice was naturally much heavier.

However, even during the break, some staff members came over and kept confirming the matters that need to be paid attention to during the performance just now.

There will inevitably be some flaws in the first concert, which is normal.

But before he could say a few words, the sound of encore had already come, and it was quite rhythmic.

"It's almost ready." Another minute or two later, the stage manager came over to remind him that he was ready to play.

So Kazuki Akiyama and the musicians took the stage again, and the stage lights were turned on again.

The moment they appeared, the audience stopped the encore and cheered spontaneously.

"Thank you for the encore, so let's sing for a while."

The encore song Kazuki Akiyama sang two more songs, and finally ended with "Bridge of Glory".

As the best song in his album, it is recognized as the best song, and everyone is naturally very familiar with it.

The simple and touching words made many people's eyes red.Perhaps out of emotion, some audience members couldn't help singing along.

In the end, it gradually turned into an all-round singing. In the singing like blessings, the concert came to an end slowly, and more and more people had tears in their eyes.

"Arigado!~" Kazuki Akiyama was also moved by them, his eyes were slightly wet, emotions can be contagious, especially in this closed world.

"Before debuting, I always said that I would imagine myself in the Budokan, but I have never experienced it at the Budokan.

So now I can finally say, this place is so good, it's the best place to hold a concert, it's like heaven.

Because of you, there is today's Budokan concert, and therefore there is me today.

Thanks! "

Facing them, Kazuki Akiyama bent down and bowed formally, thanking them from the bottom of his heart.

The lights on the stage gradually dimmed, but the lights in the hall turned on.

This time it was really over, and the concert, which lasted nearly two hours, came to a successful conclusion.

　thanks for your support!
