"" is a live show by Japanese music artist Shiina Ringo. It was performed at Kaho Theatre (, a playhouse in Iizuka City, Fukuoka, on July 30, 2000. The official name is "" It was released as a live DVD as part of the celebration for the 10th anniversary of her debut on September 17, 2008, by EMI Music Japan. ==Outline== The show was a one-night-only performance at Kaho Theatre in Iizuka in Fukuoka Prefecture. That same prefecture also houses her hometown of Fukuoka. Kaho Theatre is built in a traditional Japanese architecture style, and is different from a normal concert hall; it can only accommodate 1,000 people, so tickets were sold in a lottery, which sold out despite the high price of tickets (10,000 yen or roughly $100). She was pregnant at the time, but had not yet gone on maternity leave. Because tickets sold out, the fans who had not been able to purchase one bid on them in auctions at more than several times the regular price. Because so many fans could not get tickets or were not able to travel to Fukuoka, Toshiba EMI broadcast this live streaming on the Web. 17,300 people accessed the streaming live site at once, establishing a record in Japan for the time. Ringo invited fans who had lost the ticket lottery to come play an extra in the filming of the PV for Yattsuke Shigoto on July 28, when the band members had a dress rehearsal before the public performance. No music was recorded live at the filming, and the sound source used in the video is the recording from the performance at Shibuya Public Hall on April 28, 2000 from the "Gekokujou Xstasy" tour, so at the end of the video you hear the beginning of the next song "Benkai Debussy." She asked all the guests to wear as many red clothes as they could on that day. She was inspired by the vocalist of a rock band who once told his guests to "Wear black to tomorrow's show," and then he was the only one not wearing black. She found this idea amusing. The scenic design and stage effects were Japanese style and used the shoji etc. All members of her backing band, Gyakutai Glycogen, wore yukata, same as Ringo. She crucified onstage a mannequin wearing a dress like the bandage which she had worn in the former nationwide tour "Gekokujou Xstasy." She also used this Japanese-style idea in her future nationwide tour "Sugoroku Ecstasy" which was recorded and released on DVD as "Electric Mole". A photograph of this day is exhibited in HP of Kaho Theatre.〔("Kaho Gekijou(Kaho Theater)" )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Zazen Xstasy」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
