I went to Kobe last night, and WOW! What an amazing way to kick off their tour. SCANDAL have called in the help of Patrick Woodroofe to light the show, and it really does look phenomenal.



The girls new image really suits them, and they even had a 5 minute MC talking about their hair styles and changes over the years. Haruna said she was a little nervous about presenting her new hair, but the crowd quickly cheered and clapped to show their appreciation. Mami noted that she hasn't really had jet black hair since the "Baby Action" days.



They spoke about the release of the documentary on DVD and BluRay, and mentioned it has just started screening in Mexico. They went on to talk about the various places they visited on the world tour and the differences in the cities.



Once they'd finished playing Kill the Virgin (Rina was rocking the new Sony headphones) they said they wanted to play it on the world tour, but they were worried that the literal translation and "Japanese/English" lyrics would make people say "Wow, these girls want to kill Virgins? Crazy!"



As a bonus for Scandal Mania fan club members, you could flash your card and use a special Perfect World stamp. I used mine to stamp my Hello World photo album, but many other people were stamping their t-shirts.
