Thank you. Look forward to the translation.

 

It looks like the photos may have been taken this time, though the background is different.

The photoshoot is probably for another magazine. I think 'rockin' on' will also release Fuji Rock & Summer Sonic special on the next issue.

 

I gave you these scans this time because I got a scanner by chance, so I won't be able to scan upcoming magazines. :( I also have other magazines I want to show you but I currently don't have them with me. Hopefully next time.. :)

I first translated a part of Dom's interview that you are probably interested in the most..

 

About this costume!

-------------

 

Crossbeat: You made first appearance at Fuji Rock Festival in 2002, what left a deep impression on you?

 

Dom: The festival itself was amazing but personally I was struck with fear. (laughter) The cause of it was not the gig, the band, or the audience but insects! We played at Fuji several times but the last time (2007) was terrible. The worst gig I ever had. The venue of the festival is an ski resort in forests in the mountains, so when all the lights on stage came on after nightfall, billions of insects got together all at once as if they had regarded them as the Moon. We completely covered with insects on stage. Even though I hate insects so much, a beetle like 5 cm long was suddenly crawling in my shirt and trousers during the performance. I tried to concentrate on playing drums but I got distracted and couldn't enjoy at all. I destroyed my drum kit so badly at the end of the gig. It was such a horrible experience. I saw a beetle crawling Matt's trousers and I remember I thought 'shit!' at that time. I never want to experience something like that.

However we are going to play at Fuji Rock again (laughter), I asked to make a special costume for Fuji. It is a piece of silver jump suit like a leotard, it covers my whole body and doesn't allow any kinds of insects to get in, it just lets my face out so that I can breathe. (laughter) I won't be able to play unless I wear it, even if it looks so ugly. (laughter)
