Holiday Notice

Hi folks, just a heads-up: Japan's Golden Week has arrived, and in conjunction, Cayce will be on holiday and unable to respond to email until May 20th. All shopping service requests will be processed after that date. Feel free to email and reserve items, however, understand that you will not receive a response till May 20th. As always, reservations are on a first-come, first serve basis. We apologize for the inconvenience. In the meantime, go out and smell the flowers and enjoy your spring!

More Buck-Tick Pamphlets For Sale

After the enormous response to the last shopping service post (all but two items sold out in under 24 hours!), we've decided to bring you some more goodies! This time, we have some ultra-rare tour pamphlets available, so if you want them, don't hesitate, email me right away. I may not be able to track down more copies for quite a while.

Also, to reiterate - if you want to buy something, contact me by email (themadaristocrat at gmail.)  I do not accept requests to purchase items via the comments section. If more than one person emails me and you both want the same item, I will sell the item to the person whose email has an earlier time stamp. Payment in Japanese yen only, via PayPal.

Fish Tanker's Only Tour 2008 Pamphlet

This softcover pamphlet is the size of a standard DVD case and contains 64 pages of full-color studio photos of the band members, some of which have been combined with graphics produced by GRADELIC studio. This tour was launched partly in support of the Heaven single, so half the photos feature the band members in white outfits and white hair - it's a very interesting look which they've never replicated before or since, so if you love your silver foxes, this is the pamphlet for you! The pages were difficult to photograph so I apologize for the flash flares in some of the sample photos, but obviously no flash flares will be present in real life. Aside from slightly worn corners, the pamphlet is in perfect condition. This pamphlet was only available for purchase by Fish Tank members at the venues on the tour, and is consequently extremely rare. If you want it, this may be your only chance to get it! 6000 yen.

Schweinfest Tour Pamphlet A

This softcover pamphlet is the size of a standard DVD case and contains about 80 pages of photos, including studio glamor shots, candids from Schwein's photoshoot in New York City, making-of shots from the You're My Disease PV filming, photos of the band's at the Fushimi Inari Shrine in Kyoto, and others. It was only sold at the venues on the Schweinfest tour and is consequently extremely rare and nearly impossible to find for a reasonable price, even in Japan. If you want it, this may be your only chance to get it! The binding is a bit weak, but aside from that, the pamphlet is in perfect condition. To avoid stressing the binding, I have only posted a few sample photos of the copy I have available. The rest of the sample photos are scans taken from a kind internet user. However, all photos are present in the booklet. 9000 yen.

Tsuchiya Masami - Mori no Hito

1997 solo album from Tsuchiya Masami features Sakurai Atsushi on guest vocals on two tracks, "Manatsu no Yoru no Mori," ("A Midsummer Night's Forest") and "Goblin Forest." Beyond Sakurai's guest vocals, this is a beautiful album in general, full of mysterious, soothing tracks, including vocals and instrumentals, and incorporating many forest sounds like birdcalls and crickets...great to listen to for relaxation and very possibly one of Cayce's top ten favorite records ever!  Conceived as a concept album against environmental destruction, the case and booklet were printed on recycled paper. The album was recorded in London and released by Cross Records, Sugizo's label. Song samples available on request. Incredibly rare and out of print. Excellent condition.
4500 yen.
