Hello everyone,
Some of you will not be surprised but this blog will end from now to be totally focused on the Facebook page.
Then this is true some do not have yet an account, they dislike Facebook, etc. but whatever is done, it is not possible to make everyone happy. Moreover there were not really reasons to keep this blog while doing the same thing on Facebook.
And from now, I will ask you, all the people who can understand English all over the world, something. I know there are more than 1700 fans of Up-Front artists... Many thousands fans came to see Morning Musume。, HANGRY&ANGRY-f and Berryz Kobo in America for example.
We can easily reach 10 000 fans, so are you ready for this bet?
So to all of you, you know what do you have to do now: like the Facebook page of Up-Front Link. The more who will be, the more exclusive pictures, live-reports, etc. you will have. You will not be disappointed ;)
Thank you all for your support!!
And for the Facebook page, this is HERE.

You Kikkawa talk show event
On saturday, You Kikkawa held some special talk show events with a limited number of fans at Universal Music.
A comedian, Tokihide Okami from Joujou Gundan, came as the MC to introduce and ask You some questions.
The entrance of the young girl surprised the public, because she came with a plant, her Japanese morning glory called Asagao-chan (asagao means Japanese morning glory).
She put it on a table and the MC directly asked her about her next plans.
She talked about her new photobook YOU and her DVD YOU! ～The DVD～ (both released on August, 17th).
It was her first time being in bikini so it was a bit embarassing at first but she really liked to do it, as well as Okinawa. She thinks this is a beautiful place.
Furthermore she talked about her new single Hapirapi ~Sunrise~ (released on September, 21th) which is the theme song for the exposition Nippon Terebi Shiodome Hakurankai 2011!.
The main point of this song is this is a fresh one for her, this is a song you can listen in the morning.
She is really happy about this release and will do her best once again.
Following this there was a small break with the diffusion of video where Universal directors has announced her she will be a solo artist.
Just after she gave her impressions about it. She really did not expect anything like this so she said she was saying yes and everything but she needed more time to really understand what was the announce.
Everything was so unreal for her, but now she is happy!!
The next short video is a short movie filmed in Okinawa. We can see You carrying a watermelon and saying in English: "I have a suika", this was really cute ;)
(Suika means watermelon).
Then she walks a bit in the water and plays on it. This is the end of the second video.
She said after she likes cherry and but she hates spicy things, specially piments.
She has discovered makomodake and kamesen, special food from Okinawa and has recommended everyone to try to eat those dishes.
After this, You thanked everyone for their coming, close to Asagao-chan. Almost everyone also has greet the plant, it was nice to see this.
To conclude this report, a special picture for you ;)
It is written "Kikka no Asagao" in Japanese, which means "Asagao of Kikka".

Berryz Kobo event at Shiodome-AX
On Sunday, Berryz Kobo held 3 special events at Shiodome-AX. The three lives were sold out and the fans were waiting for a long time, even if it was really hot outside.
Those lives were part of the Shiodome☆Idol Carnival! 2011, which is also part of the exposition Nippon Terebi Shiodome Hakurankai 2011!.
The lucky fans could listen to the new You Kikkawa' song (Hapirapi ~Sunrise~) while waiting for the opening of the live house.
As soon as the girls arrived on stage, the concert hall become so hot!!
They wore nice kimonos and began directly to sing. As usual each member gave her best. Rival was on the setlist and it launched a crazy atmosphere in the hall. All were screaming, jumping, moving their penlights on rythm.
And the last song but not the least was their new single, Aa, Yo ga Akeru, a nice one. I am sure you will like it as well as the MV ;)
After a crazy live, they had an handshake time with the public.
As usual, I took pictures just for you, readers of Up-Front Link \o/

Miki Hirayama in the Kennedy House of Ginza
On June, 18th, in a small live house of Ginza called Kennedy House, Miki Hirayama held two lives.
The "Kennedy House" live house is a beautiful place, in which you can feel an atmosphere between rock and jazz, like the old good sound. The lights also really fixed this special environment.
Well, just with this, you know you will have a good time. And the live was really great!!
5 musicians were on stage as well:
- Tsukasa Ueda (guitar and vocal),
- Taro Nishiyama (guitar and vocal),
- Masahiro Morishita (bass and vocal),
- Tadaomi Takemura (drums and vocal),
- Tomohiko Sasagawa (sax and vocal),
- Otohico Tahara (piano and vocal).
All are members of the group Super Wonderland.
They began with a funky and rock sound and just after Miki arrived on stage. The Yellow Lion, as she described herself, fixed already all the attention, with her strong and particular voice.
The audience of all ages was clapping and were moving on rythm with the music, but still while being seated, really funny to see.All the musicians were dancing with Miki.
And when they began a medley of The Beatles, what a show seriously!!!
This is the kind of music you want to hear to wake up and be in a good mood for the whole day. Miki continued with some personal songs with a new touch, more jazzy or rock.
She covered an old but really famous song of Kyuu Sakamoto, Miagete Goran Yoru no Hoshi O. And this is one of the best cover I've heard of this song, so touching...
Of course she also sang her more famous songs like Beautiful・Yokohama and Manatsu no Dekigoto.
With a nice setlist, she gave happiness to all the public.
For this live, we can just say one thing: thank you, miss Hirayama!

Live report of the live Yuko Nakazawa Birthday Live 2011 ~What a wonderful day!~
Close to the place of the Morning Musume。's events for the release Only you, Yuko Nakazawa held a special concert for her birthday in the Zepp Tokyo.
At 5PM, the whole place became dark. A lounge music introduced her coming, which surprised many people because she came not directly on stage but through the public!
A band was here as well and all the public directly felt in love with her beautiful voice.
Some fans came with purple penlights and it was really nice to see them with the purple lights on stage on the same time.
During this special live, Yuko Nakazawa talked quite a lot during the MCs. She talked about her carrier, her vision of Dream Morning Musume。's members, her future, etc.
Of course she made fun of herself about the fact she is still not married, but she still hopes to find the good one soon!!!
She likes so much her fans that she made fun of them, saying she was trying to see them from a hidden spot outside, close to the live house. But many of them came on the last moment because of the Morning Musume。's events. The whole audience laughed from her jokes.
Many special guests came on stage to give her some presents and because she did not know anything about it, she was closed to cry many times during this live. She said she was happy to see her fans, to sing with them and also to meet those special guests:
Yoko Akino, Hidenori Tokuyama but also Mari Yaguchi (just married!!), Rika Ishikawa and Ai Takahashi who came with a birthday cake. After receiving this cake and presents, she came back to singing, and during a medley she even sang a funky version of S/mileage' song, Yume Miru 15 Sai, really a nice cover!!
Just with a guitar as an introduction, she also sang one of her favorite song, Get Along With You.
During this live, she sang pop songs but also enka, funky, more rock, etc.
And for the encore, she came back walking through the public and even get to the second level.
To conclude more than 3 hours on stage, she sang KAN' song Ai wa Katsu that all of you know.
The public was so crazy and screamed so much, she came once again on stage to say another time sayonara to this nice public!
Happy birthday Yuko Nakazawa-san!!!
...
Ok... I am sure you were expecting some pictures? Do not worry, this time again you will have some exclusive ones, during her rehearsal and one in the backstage just before the live. Enjoy;)
