Rehearsal

- Staff journal entry dating 28 April 2021, written by Tomonori Kawazu (aka Zuzzu)

Good evening.

Yesterday was the final rehearsal for the Viva La Rock 2021 stage!  

So stoked cause it’ll be a reunion with some of the stage crew whom we hadn’t worked with since the last show of the HEHT tour at Okayama Civic Hall!

This time, we’ve got a small crew comprising of stage director Ono-chan, sound PA Momi-san and Keisuke-san who’s in charge of sound monitor, Le Manipulator Ishii-chan (who stood in for Hiko-san), lighting specialist Suzuki-san and the Daichi-crew, the professional roadie crew in charge of instrument handling, and last but not least, Dachio (tl: Kento Yamada, director of a bunch of Kaze’s MVs and his concert documentaries and basically Team Kaze's go-to person for anything visual-related, aka Dutch or Dachio). 

However, Elizabeth Miyaji showed up at the studio as well, even if I don’t remember asking him to come.  

Me, confused: Eh? Why are you here? 

‘zabeth: I’m here because Yamada-san asked me. He said, “Everyone’s gonna be there! So you gotta be, too!” 

Wow! This is really heartening to hear! 

Very few things feel better than people showing up without you having to ask! 

Thinking back on it, this was what it was like back when they were shooting Running for Budokan. 

Back then, when I first asked Kento Yamada-san (the guy we like to affectionately call Dachio) to shoot the concert footage of the Budokan show, I remember also asking him something along the lines of, “It’d be really great if you could also shoot some backstage footage as well.” (At this point, we didn’t actually have any real plans to release backstage footage yet.) 

And ‘zabeth, he just showed up at the studio along with Dachio one fine day. 

Come to think of it, ever since I first laid eyes on him, I’ve never seen him without a camera  hanging 'round his neck. 

‘zabeth, does this mean you’ve been snapping shots and filming us all this time even when we weren‘t aware?  

Because it wasn’t just Kaze, whom we expected the footage to be centered on, but there were also countless pictures and footage of the rest of us BTS staff, almost all of which were taken candidly. 

From the endless amount of footage, then came the passionate editing.  

Which eventually led to the documentary itself. 

From ‘zabeth’s positioning and Dachio’s direction, the wonderful piece of work called Running For Budokan was born.  

‘zabeth and Dachio, you guys are awesome! 

Given how frequent I appear in it, though, I think it's best that I explain some things.

In the documentary, what people will see is a loud-mouthed middle-aged man, and a somewhat timid, rather shy and quiet, but pleasant-seeming young man. Just for the record, Kaze isn’t usually as quiet and timid as he comes off in there, no sir. He gets agitated sometimes by certain things and even I, at the grand old age of 46, get told off by him at times! 

But I digress. Under the ever-changing circumstances, we finally came to the stage where we wrapped up rehearsals, with nothing but hope to go on that the show will be able to go on without a hitch. 

Here’s the van loaded with equipment after rehearsal, along with the hopes and prayers of Kaze and his team!

Fujii Kaze’s all packed and ready to impress! 

...just, you know, saying.
