Omiya Seven in a Three-Way Battle in Shibuya!

I went to a live house called SHIBUYA DIVE to see live performances by Tatsuya Mishima, Toban Doggs, THE KOZIES, and Ivorys.

Oh my god!!!!!!!!

It was so much fun!!!!!!!!!

For the first time in a while, I spent time that was over 100% pure fun. I think the corners of my mouth were turned up the whole time.
Everyone really hyped up the venue with their rapping and singing, and made us laugh as comedians during the talk segments. It felt like they were top-tier professionals in both music and comedy.

I haven't really been following Omiya Seven, and this was my first time seeing Ivorys live because I could never make the timing work before. I was a bit anxious before the show started, but I enjoyed it from start to finish. I could feel their determination to make sure every single person in the audience had a great time.
I wasn't sure if I could make it that day, so my ticket, which I bought two days before, had a reference number in the 200s.
I think it's amazing that over 200 people gathered for a music concert headlined by comedians. The venue was packed. (I just looked it up, and it seems the venue's max capacity is 400.)

The first act, Mishima-san, performed Enka solo. He sang Enka soulfully at a live house in Shibuya. The audience was really into it right from the start. That's Omiya for you.

Toban Doggs had a 30-minute set with two original songs. GAG's Yasuda-san worked hard with a long story about his mother. Everyone except Yasuda-san was wearing a school uniform. They all looked good in them, but Tamons' Abe-san looked especially good! So cute!! Apparently, for some reason, his pants were black denim.
GAG's Fukui-san brought lyrics written vertically on stationery as a cheat sheet. It seems the lyrics were also displayed on the monitor at his feet.
Apparently, Toban Doggs only had that day to rehearse. Everyone is so busy just with their theater appearances, after all...
Oonami-san's hosting was great, and the talk segment was just hilarious and made me laugh.
The two rap songs were just so cool!! The new song "Yoku Yoku Yoku," created in 2024 and performed only four times so far, had parts where the audience could participate in call-and-response, and it was incredibly fun.
It was so cool when Oonami-san threw merchandise towels into the audience.

When Toban Doggs' set ended, THE KOZIES appeared! Cheers erupted from the venue.
While the band members prepared their instruments, Toban Doggs and Fumita-san kept the crowd entertained with talk.
They played around with a service(?) where if you shouted "Whoa!" at Nanbu-san, he would shout "Whoa!" back.

THE KOZIES performed six songs, all of which were originals.

Anyway, Fumita-san is super cool!!!

The moment Fumita-san's profile appeared when the person in front of me moved their head, it was so cool I thought it was a scene from a movie. It was picture-perfect.

Even though he's a top-tier professional manzai comedian, that night he was completely a band vocalist. He's great at hyping up the crowd.
When you get complimented, it makes you happy, so you get even more hyped up.

I think it was after they finished the second song. Fumita-san beckoned, saying, "It's crowded and you can't get in the back, so everyone squeeze to the front," and the way the audience obediently squeezed forward was cute, like elementary school students listening to their teacher.

THE KOZIES' music has gentle lyrics and melodies.
That music, carried by Fumita-san's powerful singing voice, reached and resonated deep in my heart. It warms my heart.
The lyrics of "Arigato" (Thank You) touched me so much I almost cried. I teared up during the following song, "Massugu ni Sora wo Miteita" (Looking Straight at the Sky).
Why does Fumita-san have such a sense of security? Even though I was in the back, I felt close to him.

The new song "Miracle" is just so cool and gets everyone hyped!! I really want them to release it on streaming services soon.
For the last song, "Strawberry," I jumped up and down with Fumita-san and enjoyed it with my whole body. (My legs were definitely sore the next day.)

After the last song ended, Toban Doggs reappeared. Oonami-san became the MC, and everyone talked together.
It seems the two members of Tamons and Fumita-san used to work part-time doing flyer distribution at THE KOZIES' Nakagawara-san's company. Apparently, Tamons even rehearsed their skits at Nakagawara-san's company.
While talking about such memories and what kind of positions the members have within the group, the comedians and artists had completely warmed up to each other. The youngest, Fumita-san, seems to be everyone's little brother.
Takeda-san, who is the character that gets teased, was immediately teased by Oonami-san.

The headliner was Ivorys.
Attack-san from Jarando was just so funny, and I laughed so much. He got booed by the audience with thumbs-down gestures for his abalone comment. It was fun how Attack-san returned the thumbs-down and for some reason said "Thank you." The retorts from those around him were also funny. The "uterus shaking" bit was truly meaningless and made me laugh.

Starting with "Ivorys Theme," then "Body Blow," "Kaku Yoku," "Sogei," and "Masayume," everything was exciting and fun. Attack-san, who jokes around constantly during talk segments, completely changes when the music starts—he's cool!
The sense of unity from raising our fists during the "Ivorys Theme" and participating in the call for "Masayume." The lyrics for the other songs are also very good.

I couldn't see much from where I was, but the occasional glimpses of Nedachi-san showed him playing the bass with a very serious expression, which was cool. Because his limbs are long, he looks good holding an instrument. His appearance is like a real musician. Nedachi-san, who was wearing a Rolling Stones cap, was teased for being "the only person wearing another group's merchandise."

After Ivorys finished, the venue went dark.
The audience immediately started chanting for an encore.
Before I knew it, the encore from the audience on the stage right side was twice as fast as the left side, which was funny. They gradually joined the tempo of the left side.

Omiya Seven members reappeared!
They sang The Blue Hearts' "Jonetsu no Bara" (Rose of Passion). The audience joined in too!!!
Attack-san said, "Even if you don't know the lyrics, let's sing in loud voices!" so it was really fun.
To think that a day would come where I could see a stage with Nedachi-san playing bass and Fumita-san singing.

The second encore song was "Ivorys Theme".
This time, THE KOZIES members played the instruments. All of today's performers were present.
I shouted the "Let's! Attack! Ivorys!" call with all my might, and it felt great. (I don't usually shout, so my abs were sore the next day.)

The audience and the performers were all smiling, and it was truly fun.

A live concert where comedians who usually make us laugh in theaters and on TV entertained us with singing and rapping at a live house in Shibuya.

It was simply the best.
I was tired from work, but I got a boost of energy.

I'm glad I went!!!!!

I also want to go to the theater behind the door on the 6th floor of the pachinko parlor in Omiya.
I love Omiya.
