October 3 『ゆくミッチーくるミッチー』Countdown Concert 2021-2022

Event:     Countdown Concert 2021-2022
Venue:     Line Cube Shibuya (渋谷公会堂)
Date/Time:     December 31, 2021 (18:00)

Remarks (October 3, 2021):
For Countdown Concert, 'Line Cube Shibya' is better than 'Ex Theater Roppongi', because it will be easier to get back to the assigned seats 指定席 during intermission.
With Japan's restrictions on overseas tourists (covid-19), it would be good if there is online viewing (Thumva). In my view, tickets price (for online view) can be the same as 指定席 tickets.

Remarks (October 8, 2021):
After 3 months, it's great to see Mitchy ('最愛' 及川光博) again in today's TV program (オオカミ少年).
Mitchy's favourite 'handheld fan' & 'ketchup'.
Mitchy likes to keep his room very cold (18C), I normally keep mine at 22C. Here in London, outside temperature is below 18 degrees most of the year.
Same as Mitchy, I like ketchup as well..

Broadcaster:     TBSテレビ
Date/Time:     October 9, 2021 (12pm)

Remarks (October 9, 2021):
Most interesting is looking at Mitchy enjoying his favourite beer. As for me, I sometimes drank bottle beer (300ml type) when I was in university, after I started working, I changed to champagne & cocktails (less sugary than beer).
The part when Mitchy demonstrates the hoover vacuum is amusing (I mean having someone who never does housework to advertise this product) !

Happy to hear Mitchy said '距離があっても、心の距離が近いじゃん'. I have the same thoughts. Mitchy.
See you again soon... once Japan allow foreign tourists to enter.
Hope Mitchy's shoulder/arm is feeling better now. Next time, before performing 'dramatic' action, best to do warm-up exercise first.
I wish Mitchy can continue to perform things he enjoys in coming years.
