Fresh tour “FRESHEN UP” closer to 3 weeks until the arrival in Japan. That latest and superb pro shot is appearing. This time, although the pro shots are repeating at the promotion of the new work “EGYPT STATION”, this work is completely different from them. It is a full pro shot born from the world tour.
It is contained in such a work “Austin performance on October 5, 2018”. It is a pattern when I appeared on a giant festival “Austin City Limits (MUSIC FESTIVAL)” at the latest concert just 4 days before this update. This festival took place on the weekend of October 1st / 2nd collection, Paul is a bird on Friday. The first week was distributed on WEB Cast, and the top professional shots of numerous bands / artists are on the rise. There was also a band for live delivery, but Paul appeared on Friday and the delivery was Sunday. This work is a DVD made that WEB cast.
Since it is also in the downtown state until coming to Japan, let’s confirm the position of the show again with the outline of “FRESHEN UP”.

● 2018
· September 17 – October 12: North America # 1 (6 shows)
· October 31 – November 8: Japan (4 shows)
· November 28 – December 16: Europe (8 shows)
● 2019
· May 23 – June 26: North America # 2 (8 shows)

This is the schedule that has been published to date. “ACL MUSIC FESTIVAL” is the last two performances that will be held just before coming to Japan, and this work is also the fifth public performance of “North America # 1”. And this work that recorded such a show is exactly an iron wall multi-camera pro shot. In addition to the latest distribution, Paul’s stage where it is obvious that the whole world will pay attention. Official grade was sure from before distribution, but it is wonderful image beauty and sound even so.
Of course, we have already delivered professional shots such as “Secret Gig’s” LIVE FROM NYC 2018 “” UNDER THE STAIRCASE “, but this work is quite different from them. Anyway it is very fresh. The above two works were placed from the show, and the production including the image director also included the work feeling, but this work is delivered only two days later. Although it is not live broadcasting, the rawness of recording is excellent. Furthermore the sound is also fully official. It is far more glossy than Abbey Road which was somewhat difficult, and it is much more dynamic than New York. The big spectacular spectacle unique to Fes is also wonderful, so you can enjoy the ensemble that accompanied the horn section since 1979, direct and rich.
What is drawn with its visual beauty is the original appearance of “FRESHEN UP” which makes us feel the coming Japanese performance as well. Although it was a festival appearance on this day as well, it was a set of shadows and shorts, but there are still plenty of songs unique to the main tour. “Let Me Roll It” “Maybe I’m Amazed” “In Spite of All the Danger” “Here Today” “Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite!” “Band on the Run” “Live and Let Die” “Hey Jude “, and” LIVE FROM NYC 2018 “” UNDER THE STAIRCASE “will be full of plenty of numbers not seen. “I’ve Just Seen A Face” which was not concerned with Edmonton performance and was concerned about the set falling at once was revived. Of course, you can also taste the new songs “Come On to Me” “Fuh You” and the earliest “From Me to You” that is the main feature of this time with the official quality.

Full-size super-super multi-camera pro shot which jumped in just before the performance in Japan. Although it is about eight songs less than a single performance, it is the highest peak picture not available for the preparation of “FRESHEN UP” any more. There is no special feeling like Abbey Road Studio or New York Station premises, but this is the real figure of “FRESHEN UP” that will be held at the concert venue where this is the original place. Please check with your official video work ahead of time.

来日公演まで3週間と迫った新ツアー“FRESHEN UP”。その最新・極上プロショットが登場です。今回は新作『EGYPT STATION』のプロモーションでもプロショットが連発しておりますが、本作はそれらとは完全に別。ワールド・ツアー本編から誕生したフル・プロショットなのです。
そんな本作に収められているのは「2018年10月5日オースティン公演」。今回の更新からわずか4日前という最新のコンサートで、巨大フェス“ACL(Austin City Limits) MUSIC FESTIVAL”に出演した際の模様です。このフェスは10月の第1種/第2集の週末に行われ、ポールは金曜日のトリ。そのうち第1週はWEBキャストで配信され、数々のバンド/アーティストの極上プロショットが話題沸騰中。中には生配信のバンドもありましたが、ポールは金曜日に出演し、配信は日曜日でした。本作は、そのWEBキャストをDVD化したものなのです。
来日までカウトダウン状態でもありますので、改めて“FRESHEN UP”の概要でショウのポジションを確認しておきましょう。

●2018年
・9月17日-10月12日:北米#1(6公演)
・10月31日-11月8日:日本(4公演)
・11月28日-12月16日:欧州(8公演)
●2019年
・5月23日-6月26日:北米#2(8公演)

これが現在までに公表されているスケジュール。“ACL MUSIC FESTIVAL”は、来日直前となるラスト2公演であり、本作は「北米#1」の5公演目でもあります。そして、そんなショウを記録した本作は、まさに鉄壁のマルチカメラ・プロショット。最新の配信に加えて、全世界が注目するのが分かりきっているポールのステージ。オフィシャル級なのは配信前から確信しておりましたが、それにしても素晴らしい映像美とサウンドです。
もちろん、これまでもシークレット・ギグの『LIVE FROM NYC 2018』『UNDER THE STAIRCASE』といったプロショットをお届けしてきましたが、本作はそれらとはだいぶ趣が異なる。とにかく非常に生々しい。上記の2作品はショウから間を置いており、映像演出も入った作り込みが作品感を醸していましたが、本作は、わずか2日後の配信。生中継でこそないものの、録って出しの生っぽさが素晴らしい。さらに音声も完全オフィシャル級。やや難のあったアビーロードよりも遙かに艶やかで、ニューヨークよりもグッとダイナミック。フェスならではの大会場スペクタクルも素晴らしく、1979年のウィングス以来となるホーン・セクションを帯同したアンサンブルもダイレクト&リッチに楽しめます。
その映像美で描かれるのは、来る日本公演も予感させる“FRESHEN UP”本来の姿。この日はフェス出演ということもあってかやや短めのセットでしたが、それでもツアー本編ならではの曲が盛りだくさん。「Let Me Roll It」「Maybe I’m Amazed」「In Spite of All the Danger」「Here Today」「Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite!」「Band on the Run」「Live and Let Die」「Hey Jude」と、『LIVE FROM NYC 2018』『UNDER THE STAIRCASE』では観られなかったナンバーもたっぷり披露される。エドモントン公演では演奏されず、一時はセット落ちも懸念された「I’ve Just Seen A Face」も復活。もちろん、新曲「Come On to Me」「Fuh You」や今回の目玉でもある初期の「From Me to You」もオフィシャル級クオリティで味わえます。

日本公演直前に飛び込んできた、フルサイズの超極上のマルチカメラ・プロショット。単独公演より8曲ほど少ないものの、“FRESHEN UP”の予習にはこれ以上ない最高峰映像です。アビーロード・スタジオやニューヨーク駅構内のような特別感はありませんが、これこそが本来の居場所であるコンサート会場で繰り広げられる“FRESHEN UP”の真の姿。一足先にオフィシャル級の映像作品でお確かめください。
