Our good friend Naoki (nokmr) was kind enough to send me these scans so that we can translate them into English for non-Japanese people to read and understand. It’s Draft King who is being published in “Draft King’s 5DK ~ The Draft King meeting!!~”! As it is just before the one man this month, it’s the first Draft King studio infiltration!! Please look forward to the state of the rehearsals + an interview just before the one man!! ----- From the time this publication was started in the April edition, it has become the August edition in the flash of eye. When we recorded the interview for the April edition the one man was still a far off thing but, a bit more and it’s the real thing! Are the preparations going well * nohana – Being pressed for time on various things and on the verge of blowing up, somehow things preparations are progressing. (Lol) ----- I see (Lol), how is your mental state preparing just before the one man? * nohana – When this publication started we had just decided to have the one man live, we were not doing to many lives at the time, and a large part was that we didn’t know what type of band we would become or what our appeal would be, to be honest I think we were straying but now we have feedback from within ourselves and at a point we began to understand how we would appeal, I want all those things to explode in the critical juncture that is this one man live. We will be doing a new song that has not been revealed until now so I would like you to enjoy this live which will be the longest we have had in our history. * mao – I have talked about guitars with many of the band we have played with but in this half a year, being able to have such experiences, there was a period in which the way I make sound changed, so please look forward to that at the one man. ----- This being the first band they have been in how are hiddy and erica doing? * hiddy – Man, at the time the one man was decided it truly was nothing but anxiety (Lol). The fact that this was the first time I was in a band was the biggest part of the anxiety but in my case, with that same timing the amount I had to play the guitar increased (Lol), well it was a desperate time. Of course, even now it is still a desperate time (Lol) At first the ratio between the song and the chorus was big but now, the ratio between the guitar and the chorus has been completely reversed. Even if it is just a little I want to show this improved form to everyone at the one man. * erica – In that state of being in a band for the first time and knowing nothing, nohana-san, shiho-san, the staff, the bands we played with, and all of our guests who came to the lives have taught me so much and I would like to put in my feelings of gratitude and enjoy myself with all my heart, ----- These are serious comments! (Lol) What is shiho-chan excited about? * shiho – At any rate after it ends I want to drink some delicious sake. ----- There it is!! (Lol) * shiho – But in order to be able to drink that delicious sake, it has to be a good live, so I have to be completely on fire to give everyone the best live! Erica and hiddy aren’t so pale-faced anymore, so we after the one man we won’t end until the morning (Lol) ----- It’ll be a battle of endurance wont it? (Lol) * nohana – Which reminds me, heading towards the one man we are considering designing new goods and we are thinking of releasing an original drink that will be exclusive to that day, so we want there to be other things to be enjoyed besides the live! ----- I’m looking forward to that! How are plans after the one man looking? * nohana – It’s not like they have been clearly planned but, of course we will be continuing our live activities, and we want to release a CD. Next we want to host an event, as opposed to a one man. We want to gather all the bands we are close with and do interesting things while making a lot of noise. ----- This publication was only heading towards the one man but it has been extended until the next event you sponsor whenever that may be! * shiho – Seriously?! I’m super happy!!! * erica – What will we do next time?? (Lol) ----- Let’s continue doing things you want to do (Lol) * nohana – By all means!!! (Lol)
