Music event: - Vanilla Beans performed their 9th one-man live on March 18, at Tokyo Kinema Club. I had bought our tickets via their free fan club back a few months ago, and just about a week before the show I received an email with the magic numbers: 1, 2, 3! Yes, we had the very first numbers which allowed us to go in before everyone else and get the best seats ever (center first row)! :D Of course it was my first time seeing Vanilla Beans live from so close! They gave a wonderful show full of favorites, with even three P5 covers (!), and a lot of songs from their latest album "Vanilla Beans V". The show was backed with their live band from start to end. I couldn't resist getting this great S*nic You*h homage T-shirt. :) Go to Natalie for show photos, and try to find me on this one.
