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 �gDive At It�h on October 11th. The name stems from fan requests when they announced their breakup.

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