3,000th Performance in the AKB48 Theater

Last night, 6th May 2013, AKB48 held it's 3,000th performance in the AKB48 Theater in Don Quixote.

Although it was the 3,000th performance, the show started out like any other Kenkyuusei [Pajama Drive] Stage, with no indication that it was a special show. It was not until after the encore call that the members sported different shirts than normal, with the words "3000 TIMES" printed on them. They then performed the songs AKB48 and Sakura no Hanabiratachi. The special commemorative T-Shirt was given to all members of the audience at the end of the performance.
