For three days, the outdoor festival took over the Taipei Children's Recreation Center and became the mecca for music lovers. In addition to Taiwanese bands, bands from all over the world were invited to play, including artists from Japan, Hong Kong, Singapore and the United States. Although the bands have several different styles, they had something in common: they all came to shake FORMOZ.
The last day of FORMOZ Festival began in check, while threats of tornadoes were transmitted. Ambulances were on hand in case of accidents and the stage and Light Mountain were closed, but all present remained steady while lined up at the gates. The fans braved waves of light rain and howling winds with enthusiasm worthy of the true spirit of rock. When the gates were opened, fans rushed toward the stage Wind, where the major attractions of the night - LM.C and Plastic Tree - they are playing.
Because of changes in schedules, Japanese bands naan and I 'have been moved to the stage Wind.O naan, formed by SUNAGUCHI (guitar) and Kensuke (drums), opened the show an incredible way. The instrumental rock duo impressed the audience with its winding melodies and progressive rhythms, trumpet and SUNAGUCHI brought a climate of jazz to their sound. The set of forty minutes was relaxed and calmed the public, but that does not mean that they stood. The naan was warmly applauded the friendly audience.
Things got heated when you 'hit the stage. Despite also being an instrumental band, their style was definitely different. While most rock bands takes the audience headbanging, serious and deep bass and guitars explosive te 'cause the whole body moving. The heavy beat of the music was dragged, almost boring, but the attitude of the quartet kept the energy high above all as his set ended.
While the stage was being set for Plastic Tree, many people sat down to rest, but at the time the band came on stage everyone was standing. With arms raised, the first songs of Plastic Tree, and Irogoto Alone again, wonderful world, many were greeted with shouts of joy.
During the MCs, Ryutaro read a bit of a Chinese piece of paper, to the delight of fans. He also changed the lyrics for hate red, dip it and sang "ni hao" instead of "hello." Although it continues raining during his performance, the band did its best. Ryutaro, barefoot, jumped as much as you can under the circumstances, and bassist Tadashi was particularly energetic, always trying to make the fans scream louder.
For the latest songs, which included a favorite of the public, Ruisen kairo, Ryutaro picked up his guitar and joined the others. They ended with Andro Metamorphose, allowing the sweet refrain followed as they left their instruments. Both Tadashi and Akira played multiple guitar picks before leaving the stage.
Unfortunately, because of rain, the sound quality was a little bad, the speakers slightly distorted vocals often Perfect Ryutaro. But it hardly bothered the fans. For them, their night with Plastic Tree was a perfect moment.
After a wait of twenty minutes, No.9 announced the addition of LM.C. The group was greeted with shouts and Aiji and Maya had a moment to pose before going to OH MY JULIET.; During each song, maya was keen to play at least one bottle of water to the public, and in the middle of a song, a fan handed a gift on stage. Despite being singing, maya stretched to accept the gift with a smile.
During the MCs, Maya spoke Japanese, but most fans understand. With his usual way lovely and provocative, he joked with the audience, asked to fund people not to be afraid and come closer. However, Aiji, who only spoke two sentences during the show, spoke in Chinese. He said "xie xie" to the public, and fans said that his attempt was a success.
Even raining nonstop for the set of LM.C (which seemed appropriate when they played 88), enthusiasm was high and everyone partied till the end. Closed with LM.C ☆ ☆ Rock the LM.C, and after they finished performing, Maya came up with a cake Chupa Chups lollipops and the band began to distribute them. When the lollipops over, the band said goodbye to everyone and left the stage, leaving eager fans talking about the return of LM.C to Taiwan.
Freddy Lim, the organizer of the festival, said FORMOZ 2008 may be the last, as there are no immediate plans to continue it in the future. If this is the case, this year made history. Regardless of the threatening weather, the fans got together and saluted the fantastic festival last one, showing the passion of those who really like rock.
