Nogizaka46: "66th Kouhaku Utagassen" rehearsal pics

 The group will be appearing at the first "Kouhaku Utagassen" event which takes place this New Years Eve. It's the 66th time this show has aired, the name sort of means Red and White Singing Contest as those are the colors of the two teams who 'battle' it out. This rehearsal took place today at the NHK Hall, quite a few other groups were also there for the event and there's too many groups that will appearing on the show to count or list. A bit short on time today with all these posts to go check again but I recall reading that the group will be performing one of their older singles which is such a good idea as many of us are getting a bit tired of hearing their last two singles over and over and over.....
 The show lasts for about seven hours, hopefully will be able to get a copy of their performance. If so will be back with another post about it over the weekend but meanwhile here's some pics from today's rehearsal.

Nogizaka46: 2015 Christmas cards....

 To end off another mini Nogi marathon day have their 2015 X-Mas cards, better late than never. Not that I want them to slow down but there are a few other older things either about the group or other people that I'd like to post about but kind of hard keeping up with all their current things. But as I mentioned in a post a few days ago an Idol group's career usually isn't that all long so while the going is good may as well keep the pedal to the metal.
 Will be hard to beat last year as far as activities go but wouldn't doubt either if they manage to top what they did last year this year. Also wouldn't doubt if there's another drama for them during the year, sometimes wonder if I shouldn't have started a blog for them when I had the chance. Too late now as there's so many posts here but think that would have meant that I could have spent more time here posting about other things.
 For today have nine member's X-Mas cards and will break them down into groups of three. Leading off is everyone's (my) fave Nanami followed by Nanase and Mai F.

 Wonder if these Santas are looking for any little helpers, few of us may be available.... second threesome consists of Mai S., Minami and Yumi.

 Ending off the post is this last trio of Miona, Rina and Erika.
