This is re-uploaded to fix the audio from the Hanabie performance sections. I have just unlisted the previous upload to preserve the comments. Sorry about this, but I want you to be able to watch the whole thing. I HATE out-of-sync audio!!!

HANABIE is one of my favorite bands of all time. I was so excited to meet them again in Brooklyn NY, but, sadly, Yukina lost her voice and couldn't perform. they cancelled the show and the interview, understandably.
I knew I was going to see them in Chicago, so I mentioned it to their management, hoping for some official pass of some sort and I was granted a photo pass. Having met them before, I wanted to gift them something. I know they like sports and I happen to work with NFL helmets for my day job. So I made a custom HANABIE helmet for them. I was able to give it to them personally and it was very cool and unforgettable.
They put on a GREAT show and I will see them again as soon as I can!
