Had to film Kiss Hug tonight. I totally was not on the right side of the stage to do this... plus I had a ridiculous overhead light in some parts that was so fucking blinding, for me to get anything to focus, I would've had to increase my aperture to some ridiculous number that would've basically turned the picture quality to asshole garbage anyways. So yeah... fucked that up.
I did get some nice parts though filmed beautifully, so at least I can retain the live footage for cut edits, but I will definitely need to film Kiss Hug again. The good news is that I love their music so fucking much, I don't mind being onstage with them for a hundred more shows. It's like... what would happen if a prog band time warped from the 70's and landed right in Twin Box in Akiba and then got attacked by idols, who then proceeded to take over their instruments and invoke the spirit of Abba and decide to retain an idol flare above it all.
That's Kiss Hug. Just totally fucking unique.
Kiss Hug recently lost one of their members, so now they are a three piece. Moe is leading them, it seems. I tried to focus on here, given that she's the member out of the group that is the subject of my doc in terms of the interviews I'm doing. I wish I could get the other two though... they are so wonderful and kind to me and always nice. Never any issues with them as a group. I did chekis today to re-up for Idol underworld for these girls and they are just a joy to film and take pictures of. And they totally let me invade the gakuya and get up close and right into their personal space to film Moe working on a homework cheki for a fan and also watching Hamida System's set on a monitor. Hamisys was doing a two man live with Kiss Hug this evening. And Hamisys...wow. I mean... hard to follow them after all the members jumped ship and re-formed as Cross Noesis (minus a member), but the two girls who are doing Hamisys now are settling more in the role of the other four girls who used to be Hamisys. I guess it helps when one of your members is an ex-Migma Shelter member. That, and when the music is solid, which with Hamisys, it always is and has been.
My night was short in terms of filming. Tried to grab a screenshot from the live but just couldn't get one that worked. So here you go. Hope you enjoy this.
Still looking for an angel here to help me. I really need it. I'll be revising the Patreon soon, so if that is what it takes, I'll do that too, but really, about 2,500 or so and I can at least finish out the interviews and live shootings for the documentary. And grab another memory card and some more Hard drives for disk storage and backup storage.
Anyone out there feeling that?
