Hi, I’m Kei. On Saturday, June 13, 2026, I was there at Todoroki Athletics Stadium for Day 1 of SHISHAMO THE FINAL!!! THANKS DAY — the last concert of a band that defined 13 years.

Isn’t this a good thing? I really hope they can completely get rid of the resellers.

Lately, I’ve been mostly posting on Mixi, so I haven’t updated my blog. Anyway, I’d like to do a roundup of this summer’s live events.

I’ve been into medal pusher games lately. (Past tense now.) Still had medals left in my bank, so I went to burn through them.

Wandering Ueno after three hours of karaoke, I spotted same-day Ayumi Hamasaki tickets — 45 minutes before showtime, ¥5,000 for two. We ran. My first live concert ever.

Good weather today, so I went out on the bike for a wander.

Geki×Cine at Shinjuku Wald 9: a filmed stage production where you see the sweat after action scenes and every scene from its best angle. Worth more than the ¥2,500.
