On May 12th popular techno-pop unit Perfume held their live concert at Nippon Budokan which was the final day of�the additional 4-day concert of their nationwide tour.

A total of 36,000 tickets (counting all 4 days) for the additional concerts were sold out instantly, which caused many fans to line-up asking for more tickets at the nearest station from the venue. �Also, about 200 people stayed outside of the venue just to hear the concert. Upon finding out that many fans were staying outside, A-chan shed tears, and all three screamed together "Everyone outside-! Thank you!"



This was the 1st time in three and a half years and 2nd time for Perfume to hold a concert at the Nippon Budokan.

The girls got all sweaty soon after the 4 opening tracks, as Nocchi said, "It feels like we are dancing in a microwave." �They performed 21 songs including their latest song "Spring of Life", as well as "Polyrhythm" and "Chocolate Disco".

There was a voice saying "Yasutaka (= Nakata Yasutaka, the producer of Perfume) is the god!" from the audience, then Kashiyuka answered, "Right. �There are so many gods for Perfume. �Spotlightman, choreographer, PA, cameraman, they are also god. �We are the only ordinary ones."



During the encore, A-chan mentioned their plans for overseas activities, which they announced back in February. �A-chan said that they have been believing the power of words, and they have made their dreams come true by uttering what they wanted even if it's a rash dream.

She told the audience in Hiroshima�dialect, "We have experienced that even three country girls like us could make such a big dream come true. We try our hardest to make the dream come true even if it seems to be impossible to make it true. �We will try even harder, and want to aim at the world with you guys!"



Perfume's nationwide tour will conclude in Okinawa on May 26th.
