KōSHI INABA LIVE 2024 ~ enIV 終了!
2024.08.18の広島公園(千秋楽)からの写真。見ての通り、幸せ者です。
本当に貴重な3ヶ月でした。音楽上、性格上、こんな相性の良いメンバーズに会えたのは奇跡に違いないです。enZeppを含めて、23公演で毎回違うセットリストを演奏しました。ライブハウスもホールもアリーナもやって、毎回毎回その日のライブに合わせようとして、変幻自在な日々でした。そんな刺激の祭りを与えてくれた稲葉さんに感謝!稲葉さんの器の大きさと音楽家としての凄さはこの3ヶ月でますますわかるようになって、この人の後ろで音を出すのは言葉で伝えきれない光栄です。
最高のスタッフにも感謝!何年経っても、このツアーに振り返ったら笑顔になりそうです。ありがとうございました。
The other day, we finished the Kōshi Inaba LIVE 2024 ~ enIV tour in Hiroshima! What an incredible 3 months. It started with the 6-day residency at Zepp Haneda where we played one of Kōshi's albums per night (plus other songs), then immediately kicked into a cross-country tour. Thanks to the 70+ songs we had learned for the residency, we switched 4-5 songs per night on the tour setlist, and never played the same show twice. That's Kōshi's indomitable challenging spirit--and thanks to the compatibility of the musicians he assembled in Toku-chan, Shane, DURAN and myself, we were able to not only complete the tasks laid out before us, but truly and deeply enjoy it. A big otsukare to the staff as well, who are so professional and smooth and sacrifice so much for this massive machine. Thank you to everyone who came out to the shows, your energy was amazing every night. And the biggest thank you of all to Kōshi for his masterful musicianship and humble spirit which is a vessel wide enough to carry us all with ease.
