Boom Satellites Opening for Gary Numan Concert
 October
23rd, 2010. The popular Japanese electronic music duo, Boom Boom Satellites,
opened for Gary Numan's Concert at the Best Buy Theatre located in Times
Square, New York. The majority of the concert audience didn't know who
Boom Boom Satellites was as they were there for either Rasputina or the
main headliner, Gary Numan. But all that changed after Boom Boom Satellites'
powerful opening set!
Boom Boom Satellites (Bun Bun Sateraitsu) is a popular Japanese electronic
music duo consisting of guitarist and vocalist Michiyuki Kawashima and
bassist and programmer Masayuki Nakano along with. drummer Yoko Fukuda.
Boom Boom Satellites was in New York as part of their month long tour
throughout the United States. Their first stop in the US was at the New
York Comic Con which AsiaFinest was also on hand to cover. The Gary
Numan Concert was the last show in NY before Boom Boom Satellites headed
to California.
Boom Boom Satellites kicked off the concert so well that people felt bad
for Rasputina who came after them. It was a very hard act to follow. Boom
Boom Satellites played their popular songs with crowd favorites such as
Back On My Feet, Moment I Count, What Goes Around Comes Around, Dig The
New Breed, and ended their opening set with Kick It Out. Boom Boom Satellites
just blew everyone away right from the start. Yoko Fukuda's skills on
the drums was incredible. The whole opening set was high energy. It hyped
everyone and had people moving to the beat. The only negative thing about
Boom Boom Satellites' opening set was the seizure inducing lighting. It
was insanely bright one second then dark the next second. Most didn't
care as they had their eyes closed and was too busy head banging to the
awesome music.
Concert Attendees reactions to Boom Boom Satellites
We asked Lynda Derosa from New Jersey on her opinion of Boom Boom Satellites
after seeing them perform for the first time. Please note that the interview
video is very dark. Although AsiaFinest was invited there to cover the
event, videos recording was not allowed for the concert. This is a transcript
of what Lynda said in the video. "I've never heard of them before,
and tonight for the first time, they're absolutely the most the amazing
band I have heard in years. Phenomenal. Every song was incredible. Their
drummer blew my mind. I have never seen anything like that. It was worth
coming here just to see them. Really amazing, really really great. I hope
to see a lot more of them to come. I really do."
Other attendees from the Gary Numan's concert felt the same sentiment
as Lynda after experiencing Boom Boom Satellites' incredible opening act.
Everyone was telling each other how great it was and wondering who they
were. We gladly educated them about Boom Boom Satellites!
It's a shame that Boom Boom Satellites was just an opening number. We
would love to see a whole concert dedicated to them instead. Even some
of the attendees who came to see Gary Numan said that Boom Boom Satellites
was the best part out of the entire concert! Although we could write about
Gary Numan and Rasputina too, we'll save that for another write-up. This
review is focused only on Boom Boom Satellites. They definitely gained
a lot of new fans and respect after that night. Their live performance
is amazing and should be experienced by everyone. If you don't know about
Boom Boom Satellites, then we recommend that you quickly check out their
music!
