The event for Toyoshima Machiko's second single Anataga Irukara. took place on September 19, 1998 at the Fountain Area in Sunshine City. The event was open to anyone, but the area in front of the stage (roped off) was reserved to the first 300 people who bought the CD.
[I got there at around 11:00 (5 hours before the event), and got number 251.]
They didn't allow pictures at the event today! (;_;)
[I bought 10 rolls of film for this too.. ]
The event was fairly crowded, just as crowded as the previous ones by Machiko, but not as crowded as the Hori Pro idol event. The emcee was Minky Yas.
After Machiko came out onto the stage and introduced herself, the first song was Anataga Irukara.
Machiko was wearing a blue and white checkered shirt (no sleeves), and white long pants. She also had her hair in a pony tail, and had a bandana tied to her hair. But the bandana fell off while Machiko was singing.
Machiko wrote the lyrics to Anataga Irukara. She said it was very difficult.
Then Machiko sang Jibun no Ichiban and Set Me Free.
