highschool rock band 1994.

With a suggestion from Hideo Masu to Motoo Fujiwara "let's change rock history", Bump of Chicken's formed in 1994. They're all 15 back then. Motoo Fujiwara saved his lunch money to buy a guitar and had to hide it in Hiroaki Masukawa's house for fear of parents finding out. They often rehearsed at Yoshifumi Naoi's garage.

Drawn/painted from information/imagination, from left to right: Yoshifumi Naoi, Hideo Masu, Motoo Fujiwara, and Hiroaki Masukawa; 15, all in traditional middle-school uniform.
