Quotes & Trivia

■ GARNET CROW 2006 LIVE, Dec 12
Some funny concert quotes

Yuri: Thanks for coming. Next year will be the 7th year since our debut. Speaking of 7, it's AZUKI NANA's 7 (note: NANA means 7 in Japanese). Furui's birthday is on 7th and I'm also born in July. And then ~ (turning in Okamoto's direction)

Okamoto: I tried very hard to think if I'm in any slightest way related to 7, and the conclusion is .... no
(laughters from audience)

Okamoto (not giving up): Well, not so strictly speaking. My shoe size is 27, actually 26, a little short of 27. And my height is also a little short of 170cm...

■ 2006 Yahoo live interview with Yuri
Some trivia
Yuri > Her meal consists of soya, soy sauce, milk and curry rice mixed together
NANA > Bought a mountain motor bike recently. And fell from it on one of the rides
Furui > He's so knowledgeable about music production biz it's as if he's a car navigation system
Okamoto > the only one interested in radio programmes, a veteran at that.

Marriage between two GC fans, very romantic. (< It happened.)

Yuri had a broken rib while filming for the PV of 'last love song'.
