Earlier this month, they released a Fanclub DVD for Buono of a live show from last August where the entire concert was just Buono, and they performed every song including B-sides and album tracks all the way up to Gachinko de Ikou. The bonus is that for the entire 2nd half of the show, they had a 4-piece live band that was all women, and a lot of the tracks were almost entirely performed live, though a few of them they were playing over a pretty heavy backing track (Renai Rider was most noticeable.) This is what I wish would happen more with the younger idol groups that we love, which actually gives a reason to give a crap about the live shows that get released instead of them just being an extended karaoke outing on a stage.
At the start of the show, they even had Airi, Miyabi, and Momo play a little piece of Nakimushi Shounen on guitar, bass, and drums. Even though they played very badly, its awesome to at least see management giving them enough attention and care to let them try. There's also a little VTR part during the show as well as an extra feature on the DVD where they go into a room and mess around with all those instruments and talk amongst themselves for about 20 minutes in a rehersal sort of environment.
Did anyone else see this? I got this originally just because it was an all-Buono concert and thought I'd watch to see a few of the songs that hadn't been performed live before, but once I saw the live band come out, I about crapped myself.
