Bill: Hey! Have you been a fan of the band for a long time?
Sachimi: Yes, since junior high school! I went to your famous Melon-kan concert!
Bill: Wow, you were at Melon-kan? That’s one of our best albums.
Sachimi: Although I was at the concert, I don’t have the album.
Bill: That’s OK. Some people prefer live performances. We love all our Japanese fans.
Sachimi: Bill, I don’t want this to be your last concert.
Bill: Awww…thank you, Sachimi. Maybe I’ll go solo…

Dr. Stein: Well, despite being the oldest person in the audience, I attended the concert!
Barbara: You’re a fan of the Desperate Rats?
Dr. Stein: I remember them from their early days. They played a completely different kind of music back then.

Dr. Stein: No, it was more like folk music.
Barbara: They’ve changed a lot.
