Tegomass @ Niigata, 8th May 10
1830hrs, Saturday
Neiro
Cannot breathe cannot breathe, so close, too bright. I was staring at tegoshi, couldn’t help it. & I couldn’t even sing the song, I was too stunned shocked. Niigata’s small : ) and being row 7 helps! And his hair is way way way way better now. : ) not as dry as osaka’s hair.

Still staring. Still staring. So much fanservice. At a few points during the song tegoshi played the guitar and move towards massu unknowingly and place his head on his shoulder while playing. And massu did the same on tegoshi’s parts. People kya and kya until they were losing their voices. LMAO. This was only the beginning really : )) Get married already tegomass. My love for you guys are overflowing orz.
Kimi + Boku = LOVE
That effing cute あら expression right in my face. AND AND AND AND the one that got me jumping up and down when the song started was when they sang
走り去ろうとした てを握ったら
胸の奥のなにか きゅうに騒ぎ出した
Which translates as, As you begin to run away, I grab your hand, and there’s a sudden stirring in my heart. And as he was singing that part MASSU grabbed TEGOSHI’s hand and ran with it! GAHHHH. Heart stopped. DIED. And I forgot which parts of the song, but massu closed his eyes with his hands too while singing some of the parts, like peek a boo. : ) I’m gonna be diagnosed with heart failure once this show is over. LOL.
Introductions
Tegoshi - Tegomass no koto suki deshouuu?
Everyone - SUKI KYYYYAAAAAA!
Tegoshi - Tegomass tanoshi????
Everyone - Tanoshi!!!!!
Tegoshi - YOROSHIKU ONEGAISHIMASU!
Miso Soup
The stage was small so it differed a lot from osaka’s show. The LED stages were there but not as big. And there was only one main stage and one main screen as well, which most of the time was showing random backgrounds while they were singing, and not their faces. So yeah, I guess being close would be a good thing.

I felt totally different at this last niigata show, I was really JUST STARING at tegoshi with that ohmygod expression on my face that I so would not want him to see me in. LOL. He looks so precious. Anyways back to the song, and not me lol. Massu made a girl KYAAA at the kimi ga suki sa part when he literally sang it to her, and pointed. HOHOHO, thank god she didn’t die or sth. LOL. And they added harmonisation to the songs, and massu did a rap like thing, whilst tegoshi was showing off his awesome jazzy vocals. And instead of them playing on the LED keyboards like in Osaka, tegomass did an individual part to the song, tegoshi, was smiling and acting cutely when the spotlight shine on him, whilst massu did a backflipped while the spotlight was on him, and woohoo, the hoodie went along with it : ))))
What’s going on
Small talk
Tegoshi - Are you having fun?
Everyone - YESSSS
Tegoshi - SERIOUSLY???
Everyone - YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Tegoshi - *in extremely cute voice* From now onwards, YOROCHIKU DAYOUUU! =.=
Massu - 0.0 drinks water and ignores tegoshi
Everyone - HAHAHAAHAHHAHA.
Massu - It’s niigata’s last show already!
Tegoshi - Damn that’s fast, its been less than a day too!
Everyone - Awwww.
Someone in the crowd - TEGO
Tegoshi - Hey hey hey
Everyone - KYYAAAAA.
Tegoshi - This is going to be the last show so i, are you all really okay with this??? *in his so errr I wanna squeeze damn cute voice*
Everyone - IYAAAAA YADAAAAA.
Tegoshi - This kind of tension, I want more more more of it, give me more! IS THAT OKAYYYY NIIGATA?
Everyone - KYYAAAAAAAAAAAA.
Tegoshi - Minna SAIKOUUU! Yeay : )
Massu - *rolls eyes*
Massu - Starts doing cha cha cha with his hands. Im so sorry I don’t knw how to explain this, but the crowd is suppose to do it together with him by shouting along cha cha cha similar to his hand movements, and on first try, he failed, cause everyone was like EHHH no cue, how we know. LOL. And he gave that, Im finally interacting and you are not following *sad* face.
Everyone - ONE MORE TIME ONE MORE TIME. We’ll do it with you!
Massu - Refusing to do. And finally gives in. But LOL, he was like Im still not doing it righhhhtttt. EHHH WHYYYY. Then he said, TEGOSHI YOU DO IT THEN.
Tegoshi - OH OKAY. DID IT ONCE, and perfect. ORZ. FAIL MASSU.
Massu - *Ignores*, introduces moshimo. LOL.
* I miss massu and his weird antics which ill never get to see in NEWS concerts*
Moshimo, Kono Sekai Kara OO ga Nakunattara
They played the PV in the background! It wasn’t there during Osaka shows though : ))) And I went ahhh tegoshii your so nice hair. THEN. NOW @.@
Kataomoi no Chiisana koi
Tegomass’s expressions while singing this song makes me wanna cry and goes off to hug them. It doesn’t help that the lyrics of this song is that sad already.
Ai Ai Gasa
They sat on black bar like chairs while singing : ) and I hearts them ending the song harmonizing to a series of lalalalala.
Hajimete no Asa
I could listen to this a million times while still awwwwwwwwwwwwwww what good vocals you have. The biggest impact would be when tegoshi stop for a good thirty seconds, and finally again right after he BREATHES IN LOUDLY and starts singing again. You will be amazed at the thirty seconds silence, its like everybody who was watching really stopped breathing, talking and everything just while waiting for him to start singing again. ❤❤❤❤
Short talk ver2.
-Starts talking about pretty penlights
Tegoshi - Look at the penlights! Aren’t they so pretty??
Everyone - *ons penlight*
Tegoshi - Arigatou naa.
Massu - Pretty right? I wonder whose penlights are those.
Tegoshi - AHHH, ours right? No wonder so pretty =.=
Massu - Yappari na, it was my brilliant idea after all, the pretty design and colours and everything
Tegoshi - Sasuga massu! *claps* In a very clown like tone - EVERYONE THANK YOU FOR BUYING IT - : ))))
Massu - Hmmm. II naa.
Tegoshi - What a nice feeling.
Massu - *suddenly* WHOSE PENLIGHTS ARE THOSE?! Points to some random penlight that wasn’t theirs. * HAHAHHAHA * LOL massu.
Tegoshi - Moving on to our next performance, massu’s gonna do something special!
Massu - Moves to mike stand
Tegoshi - CHIAGAIMASSSSUUUUU.
Massu - Stares
Tegoshi - PINK DAYO!
Massu - Dakara nani?
Tegoshi - Im singing! It’s pink! You’re not pink! * smiles brightly*
Massu - Moves on to his keyboard
Everyone - Ganbare MASSU!
Massu - Starts playing weird weird random keyboard sounds
Tegoshi - Eh that’s the sound from moving on the next stage of dragon quest right?
Massu - Nods nods Continues playing random keyboard sounds. Finally stops
Tegoshi - Oh you’re done playing?
Massu - Starts playing kesenai suddenly
Tegoshi - Scrambles around. EHHHHH I was drinking water. I WAS STANDING THERE DRINKING WATER AND YOU STARTED PLAYING THE SONG? IKINARII?
Massu and everyone - laugh and laugh and laugh
Tegoshi - Gets composed and ready. *turns around at massu* whenever you’re ready!
Kesenai
: ) I love the before of this song so much. And they were black and white on the screens, awesome atmosphere.
Minna ga iru sekai wo hitotsu ni ai wo motto Give & Take shimashou
I love my 1800YEN heels, its so jump friendly! I jumped throughout this whole song, im amazed the heels didn’t break LOL. You get the idea on how high this song makes you feel ! & I lve twirly tegoshi. When he twirls, and twirls, and twirls. : ) makes my heart skips a beat seeing that. Woohhoo.
Im gonna miss SUKI-ing, DAISUKI-ing and agreeing to massu on how much we love his favourite sui gyoza : ))) TEGOMASS AISHITERU!
Boku no Cinderella
Zou san came out! But both zou san’s stayed at the side of the stage because, niigata had no side paths or anything like that. AND THAT FREAKING WHITE NITROGEN WHATEVER THAT IS GAS THING IS SO EFFING COLD =.= I was hit by AI CHAN’S aka MASSU’s zou san’s WHITE NITROGEN THING. So cold. So cold. And they changed the whole entire lyrics to ZOU SAN and just more ZOU SAN. Lol. At the end of the song massu said, I’m so sorry this song has changed to an entirely unknown song that you all have never heard before because of the zou san lyrics change. LOL, im good with that massu : ) we’re happy if you are! And I think tegoshi’s seriously in love with the zou san’s. He keep, zou san kawaiii yo! Mecha kawaii yo. And towards the end, they kept spraying ALL OF THE NITROGEN WHITE GAS THING ON US. And they oopps sorry, but they still did it anyways. And they oh, I didn’t know that will happen and went EHEHEHHEHEEH. EVIL. BOTH S.
MC
Still talking about the elephants. LOL. Mentioning that they went along together with tegomass, from Osaka, to Sapporo and now to niigata. Our cute precious zou san’s LOL. Zou san went off and they made us say goodbye to them AGAIN. ZOU SAN BYEBYE!
Tegoshi - Look at them leaving us backwards!
Massu - So cute!
Starts MC for real
Tegoshi - What are we gonna do about this last MC in niigata?
Massu - Let’s talk about our clothes. Tegoshi your clothes this time round, hmmm are pretty outstanding deshou?
Tegoshi - HUH? Nani ga? You’re talking about this *pulls massu’s leopard prints slightly*
Everyone - LAUGHS LAUGHS LAUGHS
Tegoshi - Im normal what
Massu - The pants im wearing is from a quite well known brand!
Tegoshi - Ehhhh usouu?
Massu - Really!
Tegoshi - You know, that time you were on rescue right? And you had to cut off your hair for it? How was the sudden feel? Was it like weird? I mean it was only for a drama right? I thought you did act a bit weird for a moment, when you just cut your hair. You superbly felt like a kid!
Massu - Oh wells, it was for a drama, and I thought hmms, once in a while, changes are good right? And I thought I looked okay, and pretty manly a few weeks or so after.
Tegoshi - Could you like choose what kind of hairstyle you like and stuff?
Massu - There was a standard kind of haircut that we needed to have
Tegoshi - Would they like say, oh your hair need to be how many cms from this and that and such?
Massu - Hmm not really, but I cut my hair at the last moment really, maybe one or two days before filming actually start, and it was given the thumbs up after the first cut by the director, but you know nakamaru? He had it cut like FIVE times before the director finally said, oh that’s the hair that I want!
Tegoshi - I’m not sure, but I don’t really know what kind of hair girls like on guys. *looks at us* LONG SHORT?
Everyone -*shouts a lot of answers* and I said LIKE YOUR LAST TIME HAIR TEGOSHIIIII.
Massu - How about the standard handsome guys? What kind of haircut or length do they have? Hmmmsss.
Tegoshi - Your hair, that short rescue one, was cut during our news concert tour right?
Massu - YES, during the KIMI NO HAPPY BIRTHDAY *singingit* I had that weird haircut.
Everyone - Laughs *KAWAIII*
Massu - It was like KIRA KIRA at dome and suddenly you see this person with that so weird not like idol hairstyle singing KIMI NO HAPPY BIRTHDAY on stage in front of 55,000 people @@
Tegoshi - ITS MANLY WHAT!
Massu - It was quite stylish huh?
Tegoshi - YES STYLISH!
Massu - How about your hair? What’s stylish for you?
Tegoshi - I don’t know, I’m not very particular about it
Massu - OH NO WONDER!
Everyone - LAUGH AND LAUGH AND LAUGH
Tegoshi - No its not like that okay, starts meddling with his hair, its fine WHAT. Starts explaining what he does to his hair, waxing and blah and blah
Massu - *not convinced face*
Tegoshi - Its like when something special is happening, like singles and concerts, I’ll try to do something new or try something else to my hair for a change, you know that kind of thing
Massu - Ehhhh, but if its previously okay, you don’t need to change it righttt?
Tegoshi - My hair grows really fast! That’s why I’m always changing hairstyle and cutting it off!
Massu - Ahhh sou sou.
Tegoshi - *in super cute voice* I’ve done my best about my hair. MOUUUUUU.
Massu - Iii nee.
Tegoshi - Looks at him suspiciously, with you were just talking about how bad my hair was just a minute ago and now you said its fine. Lol.
Tegoshi - *still on the hair topic* You know it quite sad, that guys only have a few hairstyles to choose from, like short, long, straight and perm only. And girls got so many other things they could do to their hair! Its like short, bob, long, curly, and pink accessories and stuff. Such a variety! Massu, what kind of hair do you like?
Massu - Starts staring at all the audience. Stares Stares Stares
Tegoshi - Massu, if you’re gonna look like that and start saying what hairstyle you like, the hairdresser is gonna be busy tomorrow, everyone will cut their hair to your liking. LOL. * Awesome tegoshi! You think like a fangirl! HAHAHAHHA*
Massu - Hmmmm, what kind of hair is nice? Hmmmmm. Actually, I really like girls with long hair. And I think guys with black short neat hair has a good feel to it. *hinting to tegoshi*
Tegoshi - Ahhhhhhh.
Massu - You know recently I was on oshare hair. After I got a call from them, I was a little worried on what they would do to my hair, and whether is there anything that can even be done to my hair. I mean you & koyama have been on it right? But you guys always change your hairstyles from time to time and there’s so much that can be done to your hair, but look at mine, all that’s been changing is its length and colour only.
Tegoshi - But the shots in it were good!
Massu - Koyama called me the other day, and said that it was good too. The shots were firstly my normal hair like it is now, then it got more wax for the second shot, and more more wax for the third shot, and the last shot was like that *points at tegoshi’s hair*
Everyone - Laughs
Tegoshi - Ma ne.
Massu - You know, since we met shige yesterday, his hair was different right? Shige’s always changing his hairstyle, like its either he cut it or he change the way he style and stuff. It’s like everytime we meet and in every magazine shoot it would be different from the previous ones. He’s really the one who should be in oshare right?
Tegoshi - It’s like he will wax it to the side, *moves his hand along*, to the top, hmmm sasuga shige na.
Tegomass - Oshare point deshou, shige na.
Massu - It’s like look at me. Stares at hair. Oshare ka?
Tegoshi - Oshare yo
Massu - Tegoshi, you talking about your hairstyle right? Not mine?
Tegoshi - Chigau chigau!
Massu - BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH
Tegoshi & Everyone - Silence for thirty seconds *don’t understand massu’s talk*
Tegoshi - HUH? Massu what are you talking about?
Everyone - Laugh laugh laugh
Tegoshi - You did it again! Even in Osaka, in that such large a crowd you also created an atmosphere where everyone doesn’t know what you’re talking about! LOL and you’re doing it again in niigata. LOOK at everyone, they are like eh what are you talking about massu? Am I suppose to laugh and understand. LOLLLLLLL
Massu - HUH? You don’t know what I’m talking about?
Everyone - HAHAHAHHAHAH
Massu - You know I did it once too, in front of the crowd in Tokyo dome, and it was like I could hear the silence accompanied with the sound system and all, because they were really quiet, and I think along with you guys trying very hard to comprehend what I was talking about.
Tegoshi - Sugoi na massu, you’re probably the only one who can handle this. You’ve got charisma, doing the ‘stop’ atmosphere everytime in a concert.
Massu - Oshare deshou?
Tegoshi - hmm *nods* oshare.
Massu - *suddenly looks up*
Tegoshi - *looks up*
Everyone - huh? Nani nani?
Massu - I think I need to go to the back to get something
Tegoshi - AGAIN? AGAIN? You’ve been doing it since Sapporo! It was fine at Osaka! WHY WHY WHY. You’re kidding me right
Massu - You go ahead you go ahead you go ahead, talk to them okay!
Tegoshi - *alone*
Tegoshi - Did you guys listen to the album?
Everyone - LISTENED!
Tegoshi - Did you watch the tanabata event that came along with it? It’s nice right that event? Something different, everyone wore yukatas and came to watch us!
Everyone - HAII
Tegoshi - You know our song chu chu chu in the new mini album right? It’s like when I’m doing it live in front of you guys, I’m perfectly fine with it but we had our recording then, and the first few times I had to sing it, I was so embarrassed, you know the “tegonyan heart ga dokidoki” part? I had to do it a few times, and there were like five guys in front of the recording box, at the control areas, all staring at me singing that part. And they will go like, that tegonyan heart ga dokidoki part wasn’t cute enough, you have to do it again! And finally when they said that tegonyan part OKAY! I was like phewww finally. What did you all think about that part? Weird?
Everyone - KAWAIIIIIIII
Tegoshi - Hontou ni? Arigatou gozaimasu! From now onwards please support tegomass even with the weird weird songs that we have!
*Massu finally came back. On an AD-san who he make believed as zousan/aichan*
Everyone - BWAHAHHAHA KAWAIII
Tegoshi - Massu what the heck are you doing?
Massu - Ai chan dayou! * Still seating on the AD-san, the AD-san even use his hands for make believed trunks! LOL*
Tegoshi - *Shakes head* This is ai chan? Wow ai chan is awesome, even making surprising acts
Massu - Yosh ai chan, go backstage now. Thank you so much : ))
Tegoshi - HAHHAHAHAHA.
Massu - Where we were again just now? And what were you talking about?
Tegoshi - Oh I was talking about the album recording, about the chu chu chu part.
Massu - Ah souuuuu, okay everyone, let’s do the chu chu chu dance practice! STAND everyone!
*Starts teaching, and when he got to the chu chu chu part, he points to tegoshi, to initiate him to start the first chu, and tegoshi did a pretty loud chu without the mike, and everyone went KAWAII, and massu had that WHERE GOT CUTE look. LOL. And refusing to do, although everyone was shouting for him to do, he did a gag reflex act instead, you know like when you want to vomit kind of action? When you put your finger in your mouth, that’s what he did! LOL, everyone laugh and laugh at him! Including tegoshi, till he held his waist, because he was laughing way too much and too hard at massu! Then after he taught everything, we all did a rerun with massu singing along to chu chu chu in A SUPER SUPER DEEP VOICE, we were just laughing and laughing while doing the dance with him!
Chu Chu Chu
I REALLY WANT THIS DANCE ON DVD! OH DAMN ITS SO ADDICTIVE. YOU WILL DANCE TO THE WHOLE SONG AND NOT JUST THE CHORUS. AND OF COURSE WHEN YOU SEE HOW MUCH LOVE TEGOMASS PRODUCE FROM EACH OTHER. YOU WILL GAH GET MARRIED ALREADY TEGOMASS : )
Sorry im superbly high on this part, and I could do the song like x1000,0000 times and still have so much fun doing it! And there’s certain parts, where they will hold hands, and at those times THEIR HANDS INTERLOCK and not just a palm to palm thing. DIES. DIES. HEART FAILURE.
Pasta
They said how perfect this song was now, since it was gonna be mother’s day the next day : )
Their mom’s are so lucky to have them <33333
Hanamuke
Wants it for a wedding song! : X
Bokura no Sora
Will always love how massu starts this song : ) And how they always announces that it’s the last few songs, before awesomeness ends.
Highway
DANCE TWIRLS DANCE TWIRLS. I like the red flashy spotlights on them while seeing them going high dancing on the stage.
Cheetah Gorilla Orangutan
I just know, when this song starts, I become crazy moving my penlight to ai ai ai ai and la la la la and jumping and jumping, my friend beside me thought I’ve turned crazy LOL. The crowd cheered to tegoshi introducing the tegomass band! YEAY CHINO SAN! : ) then he intro-ed massu! LOL when they introduced each other its hilarious! All the lalala on the different pitching and tones! GOD I LOVE THEM REALLY. Then they made us LALALLALALLA. Until I thought I was gonna die. NO MORE VOICE. And it was the massu’s audience side harmonizing then tegoshi’s audience side harmonizing part time! I’m on tegoshi’s quite a lot, and his harmonizing part is so HIGH. @.@ and im amazed we are even harmonized, lol I can only hear myself most of the time, so only tegomass knows what we really sound like! HAHAHAHHA. Please drink weider or sth before you go for the shows, YOU WILL NEED IT. I was catching streamers with my uchiwas and jumping at the same time. Am still sane now. LOLS. Thank god, I need to live to watch more tegomass/NEWS awesomeness. HAHAHA. And we ended the song LALALA-in for a good thirty seconds jumping to the song with tegomass. @.@. energy burnt = 2000 calories.
Encore
We shouted for TEGOMASS TEGOMASS TEGOMASS TEGOMASS and not the normal encore! I’m like half recovering from highway + cheetah gorilla orangutan. Managed to muster all the little energy I had left to shout for tegomass. HOHOHOHO. Niigata’s an enthusiastic crowd! It’s their first tegomass live after all! : ) I’m glad I choose correct places to watch tegomass this time round! The tegomass chants became louder when the tegomass band came out on stage : ) WOHOOOO NIIGATA!
Yoru wa Hoshi wo Nagameteokure
And all the chants suddenly stopped, everyone started listening to tegomass in silence. Awed by their very existence, among the midst of stars in the background. I started tearing in the middle of the song, it was really my last show for the whole tour. Awesome memories shared with tegomass through it all, thanks for awesomeness tegomass. And I cannot help but relate to the lyrics, which makes it worst, because the tears, just kept flowing and flowing. And the lyrics, especially this part
泣かないで空見上げて
笑ってるだろう それが僕だよ
そうだよ ここにいる キミのそばに
Makes me cry and cry and cry.
End Talk
Tegoshi
This is our first time performing at niigata. I feel so blessed just being here with all of you. I had so much fun together with all of you. Because of all of you, even though we couldn’t have our first tour here at niigata, we still managed to have a trip here on our second tour. Listening to your voices, it makes me very happy : ) Hontou ni arigatou gozaimashita.
Massu
Give me a moment, give me a moment, I need to compose myself first. *someone from the crowd, you okay?* This meeting I’ve had with you all and the communication we’ve had throughout this tour, it’s been so much fun. Thanks so much!
Kiss Kaerimichi no Love Song by tegomass + audience.
Everyone started singing from the start of the song, and by that time I was singing and staring at tegoshi too much, enjoying those last few moments, before the show ends :X. I could see tegoshi’s eyes became watery and sparkling from the spotlight. And at first I thought I was just thinking too much, I thought he wouldn’t cry or teared that easily. But I confirmed he really cried when he said his final goodbye after bowing to the crowd, he had his hands on his eyes, with the wiping his tears action. Oh tegoshi. Don’t cry : (((((( And I like how tegomass look at the crowd singing, makes us feel like we’re very precious to them : )))))
They ended the show with a no mike arigatou, and whilst the music box kiss was playing, the crowd TEGOMASS at first then they finally sang to the music box, while watching the screen, that had all the pictures of the previous shows along with the set list of the concert in a book on the screen. And when the book closed, it was written on the book jacket, “TEGOMASS NO AI AT NIIGATA, VOL 8”!
TEGOMASS ILL MISS YOU SO VERY MUCH. MASSU IM GONNA MISS ALL YOUR WEIRD ANTICS. TEGOSHI IM GONNA MISS ALL YOUR TWIRLS. And I know im superbly tegoshi biased throughout this whole report, but I’m glad you manage to reach the end of this 4000+ words fanreport. Thanks for taking time to read!
Aishah DESU!
