Little late for the post, will hunt down a recording if possible.



After five years, pop duo Do As Infinity (DAI) is reopening their official fan club “Dive At It” on October 11th. The name stems from fan requests when they announced their breakup. New fan club members will get an original face towel as a present. D.A.I is currently working with online website Nico Nico Douga for a new program.

On October 2nd D.A.I is holding their 12th anniversary commemoration live “Do As Inifinity 12th Anniversary ~FREE SOUL! FREE SPIRITS! ~Vol.3~” at Hibiya Kokaido.

D.A.I is also releasing a new single “Tasogare” on November 16th. It will be the ending theme song to video game series “Sengoku BASARA 3 Utage” (which is releasing November 10th by Capcom/PS3/Wii).

Their anniversary live will be broadcasted on Nico Nico Douga and USTREAM.
