I knew a few people who went (from overseas). Actually, I had my  
friend buy me a towel, so I have that. ^_^

 From a pure musical perspective, it was pretty much amateur hour. You  
can hear the change in the music ability. ^_^

 From a real perspective, they did quite well for a bunch of seiyuu.  
Hikasa Youko, gets bonus points for playing the bass backwards (for  
her). Or maybe that's "made to play" the bass backwards.

They all impressed me, mostly Satou Satomi on the drums, because  
that's harder to do and it's much easier to tell the drummer messed a  
section up.

Actually when the cut to the drums (Satou Satomi) it looked just as  
bad for the fake playing sections. ^_^

But, see above.
