YO!!! JEALKB TOUR HAS STARTED!!! ^_^
Hey!! First post in awhile but I had to write down some stuff about tonight's Jealkb show in Shinagawa Stellar Ball! (Which should I add is like... right next to where I work)
I really should be taking a shower right now but I first need to get some things out here before that since it was awesome!!!!! Laura... while I know you said not to spoil anything, I'm not really gonna mention too much for now that hasn't been mentioned in their blogs... I'll put other spoilers in obvious brackets so that you don't look at them!
Today was finally the beginning night of the half a year tour that jealkb had announced back in the summer. No need to say that I was extremely excited about it even though my back was killing me beyond words yesterday.... nothing some good pain killers and back braces didn't help me with though!
First of, it took a very long time for them to let us in the venue since they had "last minute preparations" whatever those were... well... our numbers were not that great either though.. 632-633.. but not too bad either since it went way over 1200. This time I went only with
sarita_sy07 since Laura is gonna mainly focus on the Kansai lives, while we are focusing on the Kanto ones.
Anyways we got inside the venue and this time there were no videos... it was Mofto and Ediee radio! Basically they recorded like a mini radio show and that was what was playing at the beginning. I couldn' catch most of it since I was busy talking with people around and being totally amazed at the fact that there was a catwalk!
Yeah... a CATWALK!!! First of trying to figure out how to position ourselves proved challenging since we didn't know how people would headbang and trash... also because well.. we had to figure out where we wanted to be. We where on the right side of the catwalk... about 15th row from the front but next to the very end of the catwalk which proved to be VERY GOOD!
Of course sakura-sama came on stage to warm up the crowd which is always nice! He came in the crowd towards our side and got close to us a few times but never close enough. Yet that doesn't matter... all I wanted to see was Hideki-sama.... and well.... all the rest of jealkb too! Damn they all looked fine again today but I have to say Ediee-sama looked especially FINEEEEEEEE~ today! ^_~
Both Sarah and I on the train ride back home could not remember the order of the songs... or even the first! We could however figure out which ones they didn't do.. still the line up was fun! They did Aizai which it had been awhile since I had last heard in a live concert. No La Vie en Rose today though but it's a long tour so the set list might well change in some places.
Anyways on to the highlights!
Hideki-sama and Haderu-sama came on the catwalk around the 2nd song and Hideki-sama spotted us VERY quickly! Like seriously!!! Then again... he never gives off very much fan service so just him acknowledging we were there was enough for me today! He did see us a couple times again but nothing very special! He was all over the place most of the time.
Haderu-sama also spotted us early but took more time to come towards us towards slower songs because he loves to see if we know the lyrics... to which he smiled when he saw we were properly singing along. Since Laura wasn't there, I made sure to sing How Much is Your Love looking at him when Hideki wasn't around, which he threw a heart towards me! ^_~
Haderu-sama also wrote it on his blog earlier but.... he can play the drums.... he played the drum today! WHAT CAN THAT BOY NOT DO!?! Like seriously! I've seen him learn to play the piano and shit but to be able to not only follow a beat but actually PLAY decently that really surprised me!
It was during オプティ during the time they get the crowd to sing the chorus. Haderu-sama dragged Elsa-sama up to the front of the catwalk... and while poor elsa-sama was TRYING to sing the lyrics (which he kept getting confused at.... which you would figure he SHOULD know them by NOW) Haderu-sama went to take his spot behind the drum. At first he was only hitting the timbales and following the beat.... everyone just figured... "Well that's easy enough anyone can do it".... but then he actually started playing the ACTUAL drum beat of the song which mind you..... you would need to SERIOUSLY practice for to be able to do it.... everyone just gawked and even elsa-sama said "You're actually good at that!" Seriously Haderu-sama (and Tamura Atsushi-san) never cease to amaze me!
Anyways eventually he gave elsa-sama back his place and came our way a lot to sing the end of the song! ^_^
******* Spoilers for Laura since it hasn't been mentioned in blogs yet ********* (skip this next part!!!)
Ediee-sama sang his song again!!!!! I was SOOOOOOOO happy!!!! First the song is SUPER cute but the hand movements are even more cute and so fun to do!!! I had already watched the JCB videos so often and actually remembered them from the actual venue that I was having a lot of fun! At one point I was even faster than Haderu-sama (who was on the catwalk in front of us) and basically reminded him of the movements. He smiled such a nice smile! ^_^
***end of spoiler I think****
Since there will not be any catwalks at any other venues (too small places) I am going to mention that all members (except dunch-sama until the final bow to the crowd) came up on it.... chaos-sama was NOT looking at the crowd at all.... but mofto-sama was having sooooo much fun and ediee-sama also saw us while he was playing on it.
Overall none of what I write tonight can reflect how much FUN this live was tonight and how new that whole catwalk experience thing felt like... but we got love from the members again even though we were way far in the back (thank god for that catwalk) and the VTR (videos) were simply hilarious again! Laura trust me you have a lot to look forward to!!! ^_~
And now I shall go take a nice long shower to rinse off that stinky sweat smell and then a nice long warm bath to relax my bath because another show tomorrow.....
