I'm going to see Polysics on January 28th in Portland, OR (where I live). Anybody in the area care to join me?

Saw them last night here in Portland and HOLY CARP are they a great live band! I brought a couple of (non j-music-literate) friends along, one of whom was pretty skeptical going in. By the end of the Polysics' set he was rocking out like crazy. At the end, he said he couldn't remember the last time he enjoyed a live band that much. If you get a chance to see Polysics live, take it. You won't be sorry.

...oh, and Kayo is cute as hell in person. She's TINY!

Hayashi looks like he's just having the best time when he's performing. I think he used up every word of English he knows talking to the crowd between songs. He must have said "We are POLYSICS from Tokyo JAH-PAAAAAAAAAN!!!" four or five times. My favorite English-language shout-out was the following:

Hayashi: YOU KNOW WHAT I'M GONNA DO NOW?
Crowd: What?
Hayashi: YOU KNOW WHAT I'M GONNA DO NOW?
Crowd: WHAT?
Hayashi: YOU KNOW WHAT I'M GONNA DO NOW?
Crowd: WHAAAAT?
Hayashi: I'M GONNA ROCK YOUR FUCKING WOOOOOOOORRLD!!!

...at which point he did. Super rad show.

Haha that's awesome! I'm trying to talk my American friends in going to see Polysics but the only one that actually likes them lives nowhere near where they're playing

Judging by their mailing list emails they'll be back in Europe at the end of this year or beginning of next. They're releasing a new album in Japan so they'll be back there most of this year probably.

Yeah! I only discovered them pretty recently. Practically shat myself when I looked up their web site and saw that they were coming to my town.

Fuck... I thought I'd be able to make it to the show, but I'm too tired today and had a major lack of sleep this week I almost fell asleep driving home from school so I don't think it's safe for me to be driving on the freeway at midnight... damn school.

I already saw them so it's ok I guess.

I'll definately make it to GO!GO!

sits. Yeah, it was awesome as usual, but they didn't come back out to sign autographs and hang out. I dunno why

We yelled shit from Kayo's solo album but she seemed unphased. hmm. Maybe it wasn't heard.

She always seems unphased by anything you do

nice blog post. It sucks they didn't come out after.

boykun · « **Reply #50 on:** February 01, 2007, 07:28:22 PM »

Next time they come over my goal is to make her lose composure.

That's probably impossible.

tenkei · « **Reply #51 on:** February 01, 2007, 10:18:11 PM »

i gotta write up my blog post too. youll get to read about me almost passing out!

boykun · « **Reply #52 on:** February 02, 2007, 04:02:56 AM »

I went to check if they've blogged about the LA show. They didn't yet, but I came across some random blog pictures. Not exactly sure how recent, but I'm assuming they're from late last year.

Hiro and ELLEGARDEN dude! Takeshi Hosomi

New on synth and vocoder!

New captain!

That's happened to me twice at shows >_>

boykun · « **Reply #54 on:** February 02, 2007, 10:48:06 PM »

That happened to me the first time we went to see them. Had to debate whether if I should lose my place at the front or die.

Good thing they went to an MC, it was right after Peach Pie too.

Catch On Everywhere is the most pop, mellowest Polysics to date. I'm starting to wonder when they'll put out stuff like Urge On again. Its quite nice, though.

Anyone have the single yet?

StreakInTheSky · « **Reply #56 on:** February 03, 2007, 05:57:12 AM »

wow the single is so 80's pop, I like it.

tenkei · « **Reply #57 on:** February 04, 2007, 01:12:53 AM »

boykun · « **Reply #58 on:** February 06, 2007, 05:51:03 AM »

Polysics and Inazawa with a spot on cover of a classic P-MODEL song. Quite awesome.
