During Revolver Naoko and Yuko Yanagiya singing a soul together, we felt a few minute continuous shaking. We did not doubt it came from their power of performance. It was after the band finished a song that we were told a strong earthquake of magnitude 8.5 occured. Only the drummer noticed it was not in the groove.

この写真を撮っている時、2～3分間続く揺れを感じた。彼女たちが歌うソウルのパワーだと思っていた。「小笠原沖でマグニチュード8.5の地震が起き、東京は震度4」と知らされたのは、一曲終わってからだった。カウンターのボトルの酒が大きく揺れていた。ドラマーさんだけが「グルーヴが変だ」と思ったそうだ。
