寿記 23.04.2013 "People Who Don't Like Their Egg Rice Well Beaten"

Cayce's note: "egg rice," (tamago-kake gohan), is rice with a raw egg cracked over top, mixed in with a dash of soy sauce and some shaved green onions.

.

I don't like to mix my egg rice too much, but when I was a kid, I didn't think about it at all...

I just mixed it together, well and thoroughly, no thought or consideration

I didn't think it tasted that good, but I ate it like it was my job.

How mindless of me.

This is a thought I had.

.

I wrote a new song.

Look forward to it.

BUCK-TICK: THE MOVIE

Buck-Tick have posted a new trailer for their movie, including some of the first-ever public shots of Tilda Swinton as Imai (at 0:47)!  Viewable here.

The captions for the trailer read:

"A rock band who just keep going deeper"

"BUCK-TICK"

Sakurai: "Thank you so much, for creating this wonderful stage for our 25th anniversary."

"The essence of the magnetic attraction of these five men"

"Has finally been captured on film"

"Since the release of Buck-Tick At The Live Inn on September 21st, 1987"

"The band members have stayed the same"

"Now they celebrate the 25th anniversary of their debut"

"This documentary speaks from the hearts of the band members"

"With a secret look inside this one memorable year"

"More than 1500 hours of shooting"

"Here, we see their private faces, which they usually keep hidden"

Sakurai: "Ghaaaagh!  Whooo HOOOoooo!"

(shot of Peter Dinklage as Higuchi Yutaka)

Sakurai: "WAAAuuhhh whooohoooo!"

.

.

And yes, Cayce will be attending the film and reviewing it.  So stay tuned.

Pescatarian Micro-Raptor

And now for something completely different.

Courtesy of Wired magazine, an article on a feathered, flying dinosaur with four whole wings (that's four more wings than Imai has when he okays himself to the fly high.) 

It ate fish.

And its name is called: Micro-Raptor.

This is definitely the coolest thing I read all day.

Get a Kick

"So I said to Imai, I get such a kick out of being onstage..."

"...that I thought I'd go into standup comedy."

"And he said...whatever you say, Acchan-chan."

Inter Raptor the First

The first ever publicly available video of Buck-Tick performing "Inter Raptor" live is up on YouTube!  Surely not for much longer, but I invite you all to watch it now, while you can.  This was filmed at Dedicate to Gang 451 at Zepp Namba in Osaka on February 11th.  Enjoy.

We Love All

From the Not Greatest Site updates page:

2013-04-04 Update! We have posted a live report of "We Love All," the special extra final show on the Cosmic Dreamer tour, which was held as a charity event to support relief for the victims of the Great East Japan Earthquake on the two-year anniversary of the tragedy, March 11th, 2013.  Needless to say, this will be our last live report of this tour, so savor it!  I feel like I've been doing nothing but write live reports since last June.  I'm developing carpal tunnel syndrome and I've used up all my jokes!  My brains are fried, like brain tempura!  I think it's about time for me to cut off to Hawaii.  But don't worry, I'll be back in June for a review of BUCK-TICK: THE MOVIE.  Starring Johnny Depp and John Hamm as Atsushi Sakurai, Ken Watanabe as Hidehiko Hoshino, Russell Brand as Toll Yagami, Peter Dinklage as Yutaka Higuchi, and Tilda Swinton as Hisashi Imai.  See you at Shinjuku Wald 9 on June 15th.
