Interview with SCREW during 「蠍ーSASORI－」 (Shattered-Tranquility.net )

First, can you please give an introduction of each member and tell us one interesting fact about yourselves?

Byou: I’m Byou, on vocals. I love sex.
Kazuki: Ah, that was interesting! (claps)
Everyone: (laughs and claps)
Kazuki: I’m Kazuki, on guitar. I love girls. (pauses) Eh, interesting! (claps)
Everyone: (claps)
Rui: I’m Rui, on bass. Something interesting? Hm, I want to live in Europe.
Kazuki: Yes, interesting! (claps)
Everyone: (claps)
Manabu: I’m Manabu, on guitar. Hm… Amsterdam–
Kazuki: (interrupts) Interesting! (claps)
Everyone: (laughs)
Manabu: I want to return to Amsterdam on my time off.
Kazuki: Interesting! (claps)
Everyone: (claps)
Jin: I’m Jin, on drums. Europe is an exciting dream for me.

SCREW has performed in Europe before, but this is your first tour here. How did you prepare for it?

Byou: We went grocery shopping together.
Kazuki: (in English) Japanese food.
Rui: Rice, miso soup, nori. (Note: nori is a type of seaweed, commonly used in the preparation of sushi.)
Byou: We went to buy it together.

Did you buy it in Europe?

Byou: (in English) No, no, no. In Japan.

In what way are the audiences overseas different than in Japan?

Byou: Even before we start, the crowd responds by making sound, and with their bodies, too.
Kazuki: The girls in Europe are cuter than in Japan.
Rui: I was really happy with the feeling that they all waited for us. Feeling this in every place makes me really happy.
Manabu: I was happy that even in countries where we’ve never been before, everyone knew the songs and the words.
Jin: Everyone is intense.

Have you had any funny or interesting experiences on this tour?

Kazuki: Hm, I kissed the audience.
Rui: Nothing yet.
Manabu: Well, yesterday I went to see a live in Germany.
Rui: Kazuki and I went too. It made an impact on us!
Jin: Because the ceiling of the bus is low, I hit my head often.

That’s difficult, isn’t it?

Kazuki: Japanese people are small but tough. (laughs)

What is the most difficult part of touring overseas?

Byou: Rehearsals.

And what is the most rewarding?

Byou: The lives.

In October, your new single 「XANADU」 will come out. What can fans expect?

Jin: Hm… We will be happy if the fans learn and enjoy the songs.

Can you say a few words to your overseas fans and the readers at Shattered-Tranquility.net?

Byou: You are the best.
Kazuki: Please marry me.
Rui: What to say… Please come to Japan one day.
Manabu: Please buy our CDs.
Everyone: (laughs)
Jin: Europe is the best.

SCREW EUROPE TOUR2012 "蠍-SASORI-" - Interview

Byou

★It's your first European Tour. Have you had concerns before? What did you look forward to?

-- Before leaving Japan there were insecurities. But once we came to Europe it was our thing. (laughs)

★Since you have already finished a number of performances, what is your overall impression so far?

-- Where ever we go the audience is very excited. There are lots of male fans, too.

★What do you think about the enthusiasm of the European fans?

-- Rather than words, it's the music that connects.

★You have been doing meet & greets with the members of the GLOBAL PS COMPANY FAN CLUB? What was it like to meet your European fans directly like that?

-- We took pictures and answered questions. Sometimes we were hugged. I am really happy that they even know about my existence.

★You are travelling a lot and for long hours. How do you spend this time?

-- I write messages to everyone and read their replies.

★Please leave a message for the fans you have already met at the lives!

-- Thank you for coming to meet us. We'll surely meet again.

★Please send a message to the fans you are still going to meet!

-- Finally we can meet. Sorry for the wait, so let's have fun together.

★And don't forget your fans in other countries!

--I know you are wishing for us to come. I would love to meet you right away.

Kazuki

★It's your first European Tour. Have you had concerns before? What did you look forward to?

-- I was solely looking forward to it. If I was to state one concern, it would be whether my electricity (at home) would be cut. (laughs)

★Since you have already finished a number of performances, what is your overall impression so far?-- I tried to reproduce the song with no effector and with just one guitar, arranging it a little according to each venue. However, in general it was like usual.

★What do you think about the enthusiasm of the European fans?-- It's simply awesome! (laughs) It is fun to watch the fans reaction, as it is different in Japan.

★You have been doing meet & greets with the members of the GLOBAL PS COMPANY FAN CLUB? What was it like to meet your European fans directly like that?-- It's like the in-store events in Japan. We took pictures together and came in contact on a very friendly basis. I am grateful for how many fans have been waiting for SCREW.

★How do you handle the harshness of your schedule?

-- Going with the flow. (laughs) I don't think it's that harsh, though.

★Please tell us what you have been able to do or see during your times off!

-- I took a picture in front of the Eiffel Tower, posing like the Eiffel Tower. (laughs)

★You are traveling a lot and for long hours. How do you spend this time?

-- Generally just sleeping, reading messages...occasionally drinking with the staff team. (laughs)

★How did you decide on the set list for Europe?

-- There are lots of songs that have become music video as well. It's to show SCREW on screen and live.

★Please leave a message for the fans you have already met at the lives!-- All venues are awesome. We'll come back definitely.

★Please send a message to the fans you are still going to meet!

-- Don't stand back in passion to any country. Please wait for us.

★And don't forget your fans in other countries!

-- We'll come meet you for sure. Please wait.

Manabu

★It's your first European Tour. Have you had concerns before? What did you look forward to?

-- I was looking forward to it a lot and wanted to go quickly.

★Since you have already finished a number of performances, what is your overall impression so far?

-- It's the best. I think it was great to meet everyone.

★What do you think about the enthusiasm of the European fans?

-- Having their joy show with that kind of awesome enthusiasm really gets everyone excited.

★You have been doing meet & greets with the members of the GLOBAL PS COMPANY FAN CLUB? What was it like to meet your European fans directly like that?

-- It was a signing session and a hand shake event with a memorial picture. It was great to meet everyone directly like that.

★How do you handle the harshness of your schedule?

-- We're familiar with tight schedules so it's not a problem.

★Please tell us what you have been able to do or see during your times off!

-- I went sightseeing in Paris, France and seeing the Eifel Tower was touching.

★You are travelling a lot and for long hours. How do you spend this time?

-- Playing games, reading, being on the PC, just thinking about things.

★How did you decide on the set list for Europe?

-- We wanted to make a set list everyone would enjoy in each place.

As we went along it changed a little.

★Please leave a message for the fans you have already met at the lives!

-- Thank you so much! I love you. (written in English)

★Please send a message to the fans you are still going to meet!

-- Please look forward to it!

★And don't forget your fans in other countries!

-- We'll definitely meet at some point!

Rui

★It's your first European Tour. Have you had concerns before? What did you look forward to?
-- There wasn't any (fear) at all. I was just looking forward to get wild with the European fans and to the exchange with the people there.

★Since you have already finished a number of performances, what is your overall impression so far?
-- They are all awesome! I feel that we grow stronger as a band and evolve further.

★What do you think about the enthusiasm of the European fans?
-- I want to take it back with me to Japan.

★You have been doing meet & greets with the members of the GLOBAL PS COMPANY FAN CLUB? What was it like to meet your European fans directly like that?
-- Since we can't really exchange with the fans in Europe, it was really fun for me.

★How do you handle the harshness of your schedule?
-- I don't think it's harsh.

★Please tell us what you have been able to do or see during your times off!
-- I'm very fond of walking around all the places and talk to the people without making use of an interpreter.

★You are travelling a lot and for long hours. How do you spend this time?
-- Playing games or writing on Twitter and in my blog.

★How did you decide on the set list for Europe?
-- Signature songs.

★Please leave a message for the fans you have already met at the lives!
-- Let's meet again. I love you.

★Please send a message to the fans you are still going to meet!
-- I am looking forward to meeting you soon, so please look forward to it.

★And don't forget your fans in other countries!
-- Let's create a fun live performance together some time!

Jin

★It's your first European Tour. Have you had concerns before? What did you look forward to?

-- I was looking forward to it! I came to receive the power of the fans.

★Since you have already finished a number of performances, what is your overall impression so far?

-- I am so happy that everyone is so lively and knows our songs properly!

★What do you think about the enthusiasm of the European fans?

-- Everyone is so cute!

★You have been doing meet & greets with the members of the GLOBAL PS COMPANY FAN CLUB? What was it like to meet your European fans directly like that?

-- Autographs, hand-shakes, pictures, Q&A! I think about it happily smiling.

★How do you handle the harshness of your schedule?

-- Thanks to the staff it's not that tough!

★Please tell us what you have been able to do or see during your times off!

-- We don't really have much time, but in Paris we were able to go sightseeing.

★You are travelling a lot and for long hours. How do you spend this time?

-- It's either sleeping, Twitter, ameba or Facebook!

★How did you decide on the set list for Europe?

-- We focused mainly on song with PVs that even non-Japanese fans might know!

★Please leave a message for the fans you have already met at the lives!

-- It was great! I want to go again! I love you!

★Please send a message to the fans you are still going to meet!
