B’z LIVE-GYM Pleasure 2008 -GLORY DAYS- 2/25 OUT!!
The B’z PARTY website has been updated today to feature a new flash movie on the website. On it, it says that the release date for the video of the last 2 days of the B’z LIVE-GYM Pleasure 2008 GLORY DAYS tour has been decided. It’s going to be February 25th, 2009! No further details have been given, so we don’t know how many discs it’s going to feature or in what formats it is going to be released (Blu-ray would be cool, eh?).
UPDATE: The setlist has been confirmed as the 9/21 show (not that you were expecting anything less). Click on for the setlist.
“Arakure” and “FIREBALL” from Hidden Pleasure Typhoon No.20
I found these 2 videos on YouTube. Arakure aired on the japanese music channel M-ON! and FIREBALL aired on a channel I don’t know as part of the “MEGAHITS REQUEST”. There are only 10 days left until the DVD’s release, so here’s a little incentive to ease the pain.
Arakure (and the motocross show):

“Hidden Pleasure” Typhoon No. 20
I finally get some time to update this site.
As you probably already noticed, the official B’z website has changed its design. A new release is coming up, called “B’z LIVE-GYM Hidden Pleasure – Typhoon No. 20 -“. It’s a DVD containing a secret(?) concert that has been shot somewhere, and it contains 30 songs! No further details have been given concerning the price, set list, contents of the box, number of discs, etc. The DVD will be released on December 10th.
I will keep you posted as news come up!
Few B’z Updates
First of all, I forgot to mention that the japanese TV channel NHK is going to air a 20th anniversary B’z special on October 6th. It is going to be 48 minutes long and won’t include any commercials. It’s probably going to be something similar to the 15th anniversary special that aired on TV, which included a thorough interview with B’z and a secret live performance.
Furthermore, B’z Official LIVE-GYM page has been updated to feature the first impressions on the Pleasure 2008 tour! Be sure to check them out here: http://bz-livegym.com/report/index.html
Also, as B’z The Best “ULTRA Treasure” is about to be released, people have a chance to receive special goods when they buy a copy of B’z The Best “ULTRA Treasure” in stores listed on the 20th anniversary special website. These goods include a “Treasure Can”, a set of pair rock glasses, an “ULTRA BOX”, a clear file, a key holder or a set of stickers. More information here: http://www.bz20th.com/shop/
And, what’s more, is the fact, that B’z PARTY members seem to get a copy of a new official B’z PARTY bootleg called B’z Official Bootleg Hidden Treasure~Typhoon No.20~. A bunch of people discussed this in a community’s thread on mixi. It looks like a few people got the bootleg delivered a little early, since it was originally scheduled to ship to B’z PARTY members around September 20th. And, guys, it’s going to be a DVD. If I get my hands on more information, I’ll let you know!
