AN CAFE - TOUR 2014 NYAPPY GO AROUND THE WORLD IV!!


Teruki: Hello everyone!

all members: NYAPPY! We are AN CAFE!

Teruki: I'm drummer Teruki!

miku: I'm vocalist miku!

Kanon: I'm bassist Kanon.

takuya: I'm guitarist takuya!

Yuuki: I'm keyboardist Yuuki.

Teruki: As everyone knows, AN CAFE has decided to hold a European tour first time in 1 year and 3 months! We will meet the Cafekko in Europe for first time in long time, so we are looking forward to it a lot.
There's only a bit of time left until the tour, but is there anything you're looking forward to in Europe besides the lives?

Kanon: I want to get on a train!

miku: Go get on one.

Kanon: There was a show on TV where they featured views from trains. I think it was Germany? I thought it was wonderful. 

miku: Isn't it the same as from a car? (laugh)

Teruki: The year before we got on trains quite a lot, right?

miku: But we weren't able to see outside much, right?

Teruki: I don't think there are trains that go on the ground if we don't go away from the center of the city.

miku: Okay then, we will go by bus and Kanon will go by train!

takuya: Lately I've been jogging a lot, so I want to do it in different parts of the world.

Teruki: You will go around by running?!

takuya: No, no!

miku: The bus will become wider and it will be more comfortable!

Teruki: That's true, when there's one less of us.

miku: Two less.

Teruki: Oh, yeah. We won't fight (laugh)
What are you going to transport by, Yuuki?

miku: I realized the greatness of bicycles lately, so...

Yuuki: What, you will cycle?!

Teruki: How are you going to take a bicycle with you? Are you going to buy one overseas?

miku: Teruki will go by boat, right.

Teruki: What am I supposed to do if there's no rivers?!
Let's go from country to country through rivers.

miku: I'm going by bus.

Teruki: So, you will drive the bus alone.

Yuuki: You will drive?

Teruki: Everyone will go around 8 countries and 12 shows with different ways of transportation! Of course the thing we are looking forward the most is the lives where we get to meet Cafekko's! So, it's okay, right? Let's have someone tell their feelings towards the lives!!

miku: Shouldn't it be the grape person?

Teruki: Alright, grape!

Yuuki: Yes! This is our first foreign tour in a long time. We kept you waiting for quite a while, so we would like to make a live so fun it would make up for the time we were away.

AN CAFE and BugLug, who have announced to hold “Fudeoroshi Two-Man Tour SM-SCRAP MONSTERS-“ will be holding an interview project on the Sony Music Artists website.

The interview will be divided into different parts. This being practically the first time for the two bands to meet, members of both bands will begin with introducing themselves. They will also be talking on such topics as how the tour came about, similarities between the two bands, and what they plan to do for the tour. We will be blessed with the rare occasion to witness these two bands talk as they “gradually get closer and closer to each other”.

The first episode of interviews will feature the first half of the interview between the frontmen of both bands: Miku (AN CAFE) and Issei (BugLug). A total of five episodes will be uploaded one by one every Saturday.

BugLug and AN CAFE to Perform Two-man Tour


BugLug, whose newest single "HICCHAKAxMECCHAKA" just reached number five on the Oricon Single Ranking, and AN CAFE, who just held a one-man performance at Nippon Budokan in honor of the ten-year anniversary of their formation, have announced that they will be holding a two-man tour entitled "Fude Oroshi Two-man Tour SM~SCRAP MONSTERS~." The tour will consist of events in fourteen different locations around Japan, ranging from Hokkaido in the north to Kumamoto in the south.

The bold name of the tour refers to the face that this is the first time these two bands will set out together on a two-man tour. Starting out the over one month tour will be a performance at Hibiya Open-Air Concert Hall on April 5. This performance will be the first show of the year to be held at Hibiya Open-Air Concert Hall. Both bands are full of excitement about this "dream competition."

BugLug announced at their performance at Zepp DiverCity on December 15, 2013 that their slogan for 2014 will be "bucchigiri" (winning by a large margin), and they have already announced four pieces of information related to that. The first is that they will release a DVD of the aforementioned December performance. The second is that they will release a new single entitled "Hone." The fourth is that they will hold a tour of Tokyo, Nagoya, and Osaka ending at Hibiya Open-Air Concert Hall on June 8. At the time, they kept the third announcement a secret, but in fact, the third announcement was of this two-man tour.

Additionally, BugLug performed at a three-band event at Akasaka BLITZ on January 5 with their labelmates at Resistar Records, DOG inThe Parallel World Orchestra and Blu-BiLLioN. They also released surprising new artist photos. All of the members' bones are visible beneath their suits, which refers to their new single's title "Hone" (bone). This novel step is very characteristic of BugLug's love of betraying people's expectations, and fans are excited about the song that gave birth to these shocking images.

BugLug has also announced that in July and August, they will be bringing the aforementioned three-band tour to nine cities around Japan. The tour's title is "Chigai Houken VOL.4." "Chigai Houken VOL.3," which was held in the summer of 2013, was continually sold out, so this year they have scaled up the size of the venues at which they will perform. The tour final will be held on August 28 at Zepp DiverCity.

AN CAFE, who is now in their eleventh year since their formation, have commented that they want to "increase their number of friends," so their theme for 2014 is "making friends." So at their one-man performance at Nippon Budokan on January 4, they announced that they will be holding three multi-band tours in 2014.

AN CAFE is putting together one big project with the intention of "showing mutual respect and cultivating one's character by fighting for real, without carelessness." Their two-man tour with BugLug is the first part of this project (the participants in the next part are as of yet unannounced). Consequently, AN CAFE has not stood on the stage at Hibiya Open-Air Concert Hall since their performance seven years ago in April of 2007, when then-guitarist Bou graduated from the band. It is possible to surmise that the band is excited to return to such a memorable place after many years of absence.

Prior to the two-man tour with BugLug, AN CAFE will be going on their fourth world tour in February and March. The tour is called "NYAPPY GO AROUND THE WORLD IV-Kawaii CAFEKKO AISHITERU-," and they will be holding the final performance of the world tour in Japan, the first time AN CAFE has ever done so. They will be performing in twelve cities in eight different European countries, and the final shows of the tour will be held on March 26 and 27 at Meguro Rokumeikan.

The tickets for this special tour by two bands that have declared that they are going all-out for 2014 will go on general sale on February 8. Prior to this, tickets are available for advance reservation starting on January 19. BugLug, with their bizarre new release and a recent performance at Hibiya Open-Air Concert Hall under their belts will come together with AN CAFE following their world tour. The thrilling competition between these two bands that hold mutual respect for each other cannot be missed.

AN CAFE Concludes 10th Anniversary “48-Prefecture” Tour With Nippon Budokan Performance


AN CAFE recently closed out their “48 Prefecture” 10th Anniversary Tour “NYAPPY GO AROUND -Kimi no Machi-”, which went from April-Sept. 2013 with a final performance at the Nippon Budokan, which the band referred to as “Nyappi-ken”, the “48th Prefecture” of Japan. 

This show would be the culmination of their tenth year as a group. Fans from around the country, and around the world, would gather here at the Nippon Budokan for a performance that would near two and a half hours in length. When it came time to start the show, it was also time to debut the first calligraphy of the new year, an impressive piece that read “Nyappi-ken”. Then, as the DJ MIX of their currently released singles played through the venue, Teruki (Dr), Yuki (Key), Kanon (Bass), takuya (Guitar) and Miku (Vocals) appeared on stage wearing appropriately gorgeous costumes for the occasion. 

For their first song, they heated up the venue instantly with AN CAFE's flagship tune “Smile Ichiban Ii Onna”. The members, too, were immediately energized. Then, with a set list that included both old and new songs such as “Maple Gunman”, “Tekesuta Kousen” and “Hachimitsu +Lemon=?” and “Shoumikigen 2010.01.04” from August 2013's new album “Hikagyaku ZiprocK”, they covered the floor with smiles. 

As part of the “Nyappy Scout Caravan” throughout the show, comedic group AMEMIYA then made their appearance as a special guest, known for their close relationship with the band. They then announced Miku and takuya's unit “MaT” and Teruki, Kanon and Yuki in “Pakux2Pakuchi” with their original compositions, which were welcomed by the crowd with warm cheers and smiles, the usual AnCafe atmosphere. Then, AMEMIYA performed a spin-off version of their hit song “Hiyashichuuka Hajimemashita” called “AnCafe Hajimemashita” and gave the members their tenth anniversary gifts.

During the second encore, Miku expressed his gratitude to the fans by saying, “As we celebrate our tenth anniversary, I feel like the love we as AnCafe have for our Cafekko is deeper than ever before,” before performing their customary song dedicated to the fans, “Meguriaeta Kiseki”. The venue was filled with warmth. 

Following the performance, it was announce that the band will sponsor a tour for the first time in 2014, entitled “LIVE CAFE Taiban TOUR 2014 “Tomodan Taiteki 3-ban Shoubu”. Operating under the theme of “Making Friends” for the coming year, the band aims to take their fellow bands with them on a nationwide tour for several heated battles. For the first round, the band will be sponsoring the “SM ~SCRAP MONSTERS~” tour along with BugLug, which will begin with a performance at Hibiya Open Air Performance Hall on April 5.
