Came back from the 3rd day of Viva la Rock.
What an amazing festival that was, I don't regret getting a 3 days ticket, each day was a ton of fun. Quick list of who I saw.
Day 1
-Started with 04 Limited Sazabys, amazing as usual.
-Arukara, who announced the release of their first full album (finally lol)
-go!go!vanillas
-THE ORAL CIGARETTES, they played their new song ONE'S AGAIN which is just breathtaking live.
-KEYTALK, didn't disappoint. Been waiting years to see them and it was one of the most fun sets I've ever seen. Starting the moshpit during Yurameki Summer was great lol
-Frederic, always damn fun
-CreepHyp, same as KEYTALK, wanted to see them for a long time and they delivered. Okazaki is so charismatic.
-SiM. Went to their one man two months ago, still incredible. Fell during Faster Than The Clock since we ran in a circle with like 500 people, my knee was bleeding hahaha Still can hardly bend my leg two days later lol
-KANA-BOON to end the day, not much to say, they're the best.
Day 2
-Kyuso Nekokami to start the day. Kyuso live is guaranteed to be crazy.
-mol-74, which is one my new favorite bands. Got into them like a few days ago (I checked their stuff a long time ago), cried during the first song hahaha (

-SPECIAL OTHERS
-Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra, danced with random people (my friends were already kinda drunk and half asleep lol), super fun
-SKY-HI
-DADARAY (had to leave SKY-HI early to see them unfortunately), they played two new songs, great stuff
-Cero, just two/three songs
-Suchmos, fucking incredible. Their stage presence is on point, Yonce is hawt.
-Sakanaction, didn't expect to dance that much during their set but when you know, when you had a couple of beers... Went nuts when they did Identity.
-UNISON SQUARE GARDEN, also a blast
Day 3
Honestly, the day that had the least artists I like so heh
-Yabai T-Shirts Ya San, just like Kyuso you're in for a great time with them. Crowd was insane, I thought I was going to fall on my ass again lol
-My Hair is Bad, goddamn what a powerful band. The vocalist is one of my idols.
-HEY-SMITH, great punk/ska to move your body
-ACIDMAN, sat down during their set cause I was tired after 3 days of dancing lol Great stuff as expected from them
-10-FEET, same as above, they're amazing. Left early though cause MONOEYES were on the other stage right after.
-MONOEYES. Well, it's Hosomi Takeshi, enough said.
-Ken Yokoyama, living legend. Charismatic mofo.
-UVERworld, I don't listen to them a lot but still fun. Crowd was super into it, I lost my shit during Impact though, cause that's an amazing live tune.
-BIGMAMA to end the day. They mostly played songs from their new album which is fine by me cause it's a great one. Until The Blouse is Buttoned Up as the encore, yeeeeeeeeeees.
Aaaaand I took a picture with Ishige Akira from the telephones/lovefilm today LOL so it was worth it.
