B'z LIVE-GYM Pleasure'97 "FIREBALL" was a LIVE-GYM tour held by B'z in 1997. The tour ran from March 10, 1997 to April 2, 1997. The showings were immediately preceded by B'z SHOWCASE "GO! GO! HEAVEN".

The tour has never been released in full on home video. Several performances from the concert were released as part of B'z LIVE-GYM Hidden Pleasure ~Typhoon No.20~ in 2008, including "FIREBALL", "BE THERE" in its first home video appearance, a special version of "Calling" featuring Tak on piano, "GIMME YOUR LOVE", the tour closer "RUN", and Koshi solo song "Fuusen". A rare re-arrangement of "BAD COMMUNICATION" was also made available from the tour as part of the limited edition of B'z The Best "ULTRA Pleasure" the same year. Additionally, a live performance of Tak's solo song "Romeo & Juliet" was released in 2012 as part of the limited edition to his solo album Strings Of My Soul.
