LoVendoЯ (L to R) Uozumi Yuki (guit), Okada Marina (voc), Tanaka Reina (voc), Miyazawa Marin (guit) Formed in 2012. Tanka Reina was a member of popular Idol group Morning Musume from 2003 until 2013 when she graduated from the group as all members do eventually. In 2012 auditions were held for a vocalist and a guitarist to form a band, which ended up with them choosing a vocalist and 2 guitarists to join the band. I suppose you might call them an Idol Band. The whole process seems very much like you get with Idol singers except in this case they play their own instruments. (They also have a drummer and two bass players (two to choose from, not both at the same time!) who aren't proper members of the band. See them as session musicians I suppose.) While the rest of the band are very keen to be seen as a proper band, Reina still dresses and acts like an Idol, To her it's very much an Idol Band. You can take the girl out of the Idol Group but you can't take the Idol out of the girl. Or something. It'll be their downfall I tell ya. Kono You ni Shinjitsu no Ai ga Hitotsudake Arunara 880 Yen BINGO

The final gig of their current tour was streamed live today. And it's here to view...
That's the 4th or 5th time they've live streamed one of their shows. Shonen Knife need to do this. It's not even that difficult - I know of at least two instances where a fan did their own unofficial stream using an ipad. (It wasn't SK or LoVendoR I hasten to add in case I'm misconstrued.)

Yeah, you know, a Ustream hosted concert is the solution to an SK-4LC micro-tour never leaving Japan. With two cameras and a cheapish mixer, three people who know what they're doing can look like network TV.
That would be *so* much better than quitting my job and mailing myself to Osaka.
That LoVendoЯ video on YouTube didn't load for me, though. Just got a "does not exist."
I believe in Reina since she was on the Momusu crew... but anyone else think Kaori the non-member supporting rent-a-drummer is the best thing about this band?

Ah they deleted the video. But not before the Japanese fans downloaded the various streams from youtube and Ustream and discussed the quality differences in the various versions. There's plenty of other videos on youtube if people want to check them out.
