One minor complaint, they talk too much. I like MCs during concerts, because it helps you to get to know the girls and because they are fun. However, in a 40 minute festival set like this you just gotta go for it. Keep the flow going. With less talk they could've easily played Shoujo S or something as well.

Personal highlights: Love Survive and Taiyou to Kimi ga Egaku STORY. They really pulled those off nicely

C'mon, chief! It's part of show biz. You want to keep the interaction going. I betcha the dinosaur was a part of it. If it's a boy band, yeah, I'd yawn and boo them down for being talkative, but for these cute girls, well... I don't mind they talk a bit more as long as they're cute

In fact, I like to see Tomomi talking, it's interesting to see her reactions.

There is this website that translated SCANDAL's blog entries at the beginning of the band back in 2006. Very interesting

I think it's endemic within Japanese performers to chat away during live gigs and I noticed too that Haruna did go on a bit for such a short set.

However she's not as bad as some. I saw a gig from Onmyouza and the bassist (who handles all the chat) went on for almost 10 MINUTES on his preamble about god know what when they could have played another two songs.

I don't mind them taking a couple of minutes to thank the fans, explain the story of a song or share some news or whatever but I agree, keep it short!!

The first two things about a girl that I pay attention at first glance are her voice and eyes, with the smile coming third. I think Haruna's voice is really sweet, and she speaks in a lovely manner. Besides, she's the leader, so expected to handle the chatting.

In their backstage footage though, she seems more reserved. She does what she has to do, and does it well. That's pretty mature

I found this image on Scandal Heaven (can't trace the original thread, so can't properly give credit to the original poster). They seem to like Doc boots, except Rina, for whom Doc boots are impractical for drum works. The difference in their choices are interesting:
- Tomo has a pair of slip-on which seem to be bigger than her actual size
- Haruna has a pair of 16-eye boots, which I think go pretty well with her outfit (red lace/ non-yellow stitch)
- Mami has a pair of 20-eye boots, yelllow stich, fully laced up. I think the lace is decorative because they have size zippers.

Sorry. guys! Rants from Doc footwears fanatic I do recommend them to buy original England-made Doc boots though. They are super comfy and durable, compared to Chinese ones. I remember Tomo has the same nail color when she was at AM2, which was ocean blue with glitters.

This is GREAT! THANK YOU! It's so big and high resolution.

I wonder if you have a similar one for TB and BS or other singles?

Any one got Girls' Factory performances on 720p or 1080p downloadable?

That Pony drummer plays like a dude: strong, aggressive... It's amazing to see the difference between the 2 drummers playing the same routine.

Are their any vids of them doing solos? Example would be something like ZONE did in their final concert were we got to hear them play solo for a bit.

SCANDAL’s first ever national hall tour, ‘SCANDAL VIRGIN HALL TOUR “BABY ACTION”‘, kicked off on October 13th at the Kobe Cultural Hall in Hyogo prefecture.

All four members changed up their images with a fresh hairstyle, which surprised fans when they saw the girls come out, but they cheered wildly regardless. Leader HARUNA commented, “Just like our tour’s title says, we’ve come with a new kind of experience for everyone. Let’s make this an awesome night where we can push aside all our worries and the things that make us angry!” The girls ran across the beautiful stage and pumped up the local Kansai fans.

This 15-concert tour will last until December 1st concert at the Tokyo Nakano Sun Plaza. They even have a special Christmas concert lined up on December 22nd at the Osaka Namba Hatchi, in addition to their highly-anticipated Nippon Budokan debut on March 28th.
