There is a brief rehearsal interview with Tomo-chan before
"Tasogare Lonely". During a brief interlude on stage, dressed
in a red Lemon Angel-type outfit, she mentions that by the way,
this was the same concert hall as the first concert about ten
years before (1989.03.14). She asks who in the audience about
who was also there for that concert, and only a few fans yell
back. She laughs and says like "it was 10 years ago, right?".
She continues that for this occasion, there is a new arrangement
of one of the Lemon Angel songs, "Tasogare Lonely", and everyone
cheers wildly.
During the finale "Don't Forget Me", the music stops and she
sings a capella for quite some time, making the song some
seven minutes total.
