Casiopea and Friends was a concert held on April 7th, 1979 at Nakano Public Hall, notable for featuring several of the most well-known Japanese Fusion artists at the time as guests, which was especially significant considering the concert was before the band had even released a record. Guest musicians at the concert were: Jun Fukamachi (Keys), Akira Wada (Guitar), Kenji Omura (Guitar), Yoshihiro Naruse (Bass), and Shuichi "Ponta" Murakami (Drums).

(quote)[1]
In all images of this concert, Sakurai has a pick placed in between the body of his bass and pickguard, something that has occurred for every single photographed concert Casiopea has had with Kenji Omura as guest. Based on this fact, it's likely the band had performed atleast one picked Kenji Omura song (e.g Bamboo Bong), despite the setlist being unknown.
