BiSH SPARKS Get out of boredomZ EPiSODE 1 at Sekisui Heim Super Arena (2022)

BiSH SPARKS “Get out of boredomZ” EPiSODE 1 records the arena show the Japanese idol group BiSH played at the Sekisui Heim Super Arena in Rifu, Miyagi Prefecture, on 23 September 2021 — the second night of a two-day stand and the first instalment of BiSH SPARKS, a run of one-off arena concerts staged across the second half of 2021 that the group pointedly never billed as a tour. After an opening film, Cent Chihiro Chittiii, AiNA THE END, Momoko Gumi Company, Hashiyasume Atsuko, Lingling and Ayuni D appear at the back of the floor during “BiSH -Hoshi ga Matataku Yoru ni-” and run the catwalk to the main stage, where “CAN WE STiLL BE??”, the opening track of that August’s album GOiNG TO DESTRUCTiON, gets its live premiere. A comedy interlude built on gyutan, Sendai’s celebrated grilled beef tongue, splits the set, and Lingling is in tears at a late MC as she talks about the six of them being back on stage together after an August lay-off. Twenty-one songs end on “ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE”.
