BiSH: Mezamashi Summer Live

Overview

On 22 August 2018 BiSH — the six-piece Japanese group who bill themselves as "a punk band without instruments" — played the open-air THE ODAIBA Mynavi Stage in the plaza outside Fuji Television's headquarters in Odaiba, Tokyo. The set was one instalment of Mezamashi Summer Live, the free concert strand that Fuji TV's morning show Mezamashi TV ran through its summer festival "Welcome!! Wangan Summer Festival THE ODAIBA 2018". Under a hard midsummer sun, on a stage decked out with giant sunflowers and rainbows, Aina The End, Cent Chihiro Chittiii, Momoko Gumi Company, Hashiyasume Atsuko, Lingling and Ayuni D tear through seven songs — "My distinction", "Life is beautiful", "Orchestra", "My landscape", "beautiful-sa", "BiSH -Hoshi ga Matataku Yoru ni-" and "Promise the Star" — in front of a packed, roaring crowd of the fans the band calls seisouin, "cleaning staff". Fuji Television produced the recording, which aired on the satellite channel Fuji TV NEXT Live Premium on 19 October 2018.
