Re: DCT Wonderland 2023...

Jei, you are correct; my wife called the Japanese embassy and found out the visa requirement has been waived as of October 11th.

Documentation of Covid-19 vaccinations and boosters or a negative test result within 72 hours of arrival is still required at this time.

Re: DCT Wonderland 2023...

A visa is still required; the October 11th update only waives one of the documents needed to apply.

Re: DCT Wonderland 2023...

We're going to go in the Spring if Japan removes the visa requirement they have for Americans right now.

And it appears they will not appear this year, either.

I'm sad...

So Misia got to sing the Japanese national anthem, based on her philanthropical efforts, I guess.

But there's still the closing ceremony...

Re: Seventh of July Sunny Day

One more year (with another used VCR player - thank-you, Habitat for Humanity!) and my videotape copy is still going strong.

What would I ever do without it?

Do you think Sammy Sosa is a DCT fan?

Re: New Album (Oct 14, 2020): DOSCO Prime

I downloaded the album from JPS and listened to it with my wife. First, thank-you Yukifox for the great review; it gives some background on what was done to each song in the remix. The first thing my wife said as we listened was "Superficial"; she was referring to the lack of depth in Miwa's vocals....

Re: New Album (Oct 14, 2020): DOSCO Prime

As a 'survivor' of disco (the original phenomenon), I can't say I enjoy this. I am not a big fan of DCT's remakes to start with; I think so much of Miwa and Masa go into their songs that there is very little that even they can add. Some of these songs fit the dance/disco format, but I still don't co...

Re: New DVD/Blu-ray Release: ENEOSxDREAMS COME TRUE (Dorikamu) 30th Anniversary Eve ~ENERGY for ALL~ Concert

I had forgotten about the 'ATTACK 25' restart. I have never been able to get into that album and concert. I could appreciate the songs a little better after watching the DVD, but the main thing I remember about the package is the weird Space Shower special on the bonus DVD, where Miwa complains she ...

Re: New DVD/Blu-ray Release: ENEOSxDREAMS COME TRUE (Dorikamu) 30th Anniversary Eve ~ENERGY for ALL~ Concert

I picked a used copy of this up at 'Book-off' during our trip, and watched it yesterday. Good song selection and performances, although, as mentioned in another post, Miwa's high notes were a bit weak. She looked tired, and (dare I say it?) old, yes 54 at that moment, I know. She also made a few mis...

Re: New Single: 'G' - February 19

Yes, this is very cool.

We're leaving for Japan in about a week, so I'll have to pick up a physical copy and see if we can check out the Gundam film.
