MEMORY LANE - PAGE SIX

December 18, 1977. After a performance, in their dressing room, Kei suddenly collapses....

Manager-san and the doc are openly shocked, but Kei looks proud of her cleverness, or her insanity

1978. Manager-san tells the girls they're going to America and try and break into the U.S. music market

Screaming from terrible pain. At a hospital, it's revealed that Kei's appendix had burst

The doctor tells Kei to take time off, but from the scowl on her face, she's not buying what he's selling

After her surgery, Kei reveals her plan to get back on stage: by coiling plastic wrap around her midsection

And with that, it's back to work for our girl. The hits keep coming with "Southpaw"

Followed by "Monster" and the incredible Jumping Summer Carival which filled a baseball stadium

Culminating with their having won a prestigious award for "UFO"

Mie is elated at the news, Kei, not so much
