Unique! This Band Performed only 8 Seconds in Concert

in #music7 years ago

Imagine what it would be like if you just watched a concert whose duration is only 8 seconds.

Just 8 Seconds!, Yes, 8 seconds! so fast !!

Although it may seem unreasonable but a real 8-second concert is there! A Japanese band called Golden Bomber recently presented a most unique concert for his fans. In this concert they only give the show for 8 seconds to promote the new single which was also only 8 seconds duration entitled "8 Second Encounter".


Although the band only give their perfomance for seconds, but fans of Golden bomber has already started coming to Sunshine City Mall in Ikebukuro, Tokyo, Japan even 6 hours earlier. This is done by fans who want to see their idol up close.

Countdown 3 minutes for the band's performance on stage even much longer than the band's own show that only 8 seconds. See the short video of their appearance


As the countdown reaches the 2nd, the four members of the Golden Bomber run to the stage, grab their respective instruments and perform their new song for 8 seconds before finally running back off the stage with the cries of their fans. Although only appear briefly but the fans who come remain enthusiastic. In fact most of them think it's cool! The fans then asked for an encore, and this was granted by the vocalist Sho Kiryuin. He returns to the stage, and displays the full version of their hits song, Memeshikute. 

Encore concert is even longer than the actual concert hahaha, 

Luckily this is a free concert. If the concert paid, then just watch for only 8 seconds definitely make his fans angry hahaha 


This band is known as a unique band. First, the band is a Visual Key Air band, a Japanese music genre whose personnel have androgynous looks, with costumes and excessive and flamboyant makeup; plus they use the concept of "air guitar" which is an art form in which the players pretend to play various musical instruments. So apart from the vocalist who actually wrote the lyrics and melodies and recorded the song, the rest of the Golden Bomber personal was actually just pretending to play guitar and drums but none of them really could play a musical instrument. 

According to Gaijinhan.com, 3 of 4 Golden Bomber members do not even know the song that will be sung until the song was released. Just after the vocalist, Sho Kiryuin finished recording a song and published it, the members then gathered and discussed what they would do on stage.

Maybe for us this band sounds weird, but who would have guessed that man if it turns out the band is very popular in Japan :)))
