UnsraW PureSound Instore @ Hearton Hotel
Umm...yea, just photos. Gotta get ready to fly out today. Running outta time.
He put his elbow on my shoulder. My shoulders are small...
Way to get a good shot of the ceiling though, right? =-=
This pose didn't end up right. urg.
Again, I had to crop this cuz the staff lady had us really tiny, and the room really big.
wtf. Frame the damn picture around us. The subject.
Kiara & UnsraW~ peace.
By covering his face w/ his hand, you'd think he thought himself ugly or something. =-=
report later...I'm heading to KIX momentarily.
...we didn't know camera-time meant w/ the members, cuz usually it doesn't.
very unorganized. I'll explain later.
girugamesh is amazing. And the handwritten thing is as expected, I feel bad for the fans. =/
[edit]: All right, so the report~ Wait, well...let's start with the beginning of the day. :) I had so much to do the day before leaving. I had to get my re-entry visa, pick up giru releases, and head over to the instore. =o The immigration office was pretty easy. Didn't hafta wait too long. I swear I had to wait longer for the giru releases...and I didn't get to sit. XO And those handwritten lyrics by giru are handwritten, then copied into the lyric book. The live DVD document was more worth it, but it WAS nice to see the members handwriting. I wonder who the really neat writing was by...I think either Nii or Shuu. Since Satoshi is left-handed, and a boy...it wouldn't be that neat. >.>
Then, I met up w/ Kiara in Shinsaibashi...we hung out at Big Step for a bit and decided to have a late lunch at the new Saizeriya that opened up. :D We sat in the smoking section cuz that's where we usually sit. We sat in a booth that was right across from Satsuki & his tattoo artist. O_O Wth!? I checked later, and saw that they had a live at Holiday that night. But still. He was freshly inked. The food was pretty good for the price. Izakaya -style Italian food.
After I finished writing a letter to accompany my girl scout cookies, we could head over to Hearton Hotel. :) Of course Tokyo saizen was there, but Osaka saizen got first row. Kiara and I were tickets 25 & 26, so we initially sat in the 3rd row. Then, we realized we could sit anywhere in the row. I initally thought that the Super Yuuki Fan had sat in my seat. Then, she went onto explain that it was anywhere in the row. The Puresound staff guy made us fill out the enquettes, which he later on failed in talk portion. Both Kiara and I didn't know that the first section was asking where we had come from. =_= Okoshi... oh well, it wasn't like he ever got to our enquettes.
UnsraW finally has new flyers...I really want them to have new costumes. -_- When they realized no more fans were coming in, they asked us all to fill in the extra seats...me & Kiara managed to get into the very first row. XD In seats 1 & 2. How lucky of us! XD Also, there were Crystal Geyser water bottles placed on the tables...but suddenly staff came in and put a peach tea next to a the 2nd bottle. :D While we were waiting, me and Kiara were reciting the lyrics to the Lustful Days songs~
All right, so...member entry: Jun, Tetsu, Shou, Rai & Yuuki. Yuuki came in w/ Marie cat ears on...and smoking a cigarette. I figured they would be smoking cuz there were ashtrays. But, wtf...the ears. He tossed them out and Kaori, the Osaka saizen leader girl person, caught them.
Okay, so the questions...they were really unhelpful and uninteresting, at least to me. Who cares what the members good and points are?! Nothing stuck out especially, and the Puresound guy was so mousy. And was totally getting dominated by Yuuki. When Yuuki thinks you're stupid, well...what can you do? Well, it makes Yuuki seem smart, for one thing. XD He was the most talkative of the bunch; him and Shou. I guess some questions, like what was your first CD? first band, etc. was interesting enough. Yuuki was initially a drummer. =O Didja know? I didn't. And Tetsu was initally a bassist. I like knowing info like this...
Yuuki was smoking like a train during the instore, but his lightweight cigarettes. :D For his first one, he was frantically looking for a lighter. Hahahahhaa. I told Kiara to give him one, but eventually one of the PS staff came around. =-= Only he smoked though. Jun was always looking down at his hands. Tetsu was sipping his peach tea, and playing w/ Jun. Sticking straws in each others hair. Tetsu was so cute sipping on his tea. He did it so daintily. Shou & Rai had mic problems. I swear a good half of UnsraW was either high or buzzed. Rai was incredibly out of it for the first half of the instore. His eyes were bloodshot, and he had Asian glow. I swear I could only see the whites of Tetsu's eyes. *sigh* The requisite normal member. :) Well, Jun had his blackouts in, so I couldn't tell. Yuuki had that sparkly Jin stuff on his eyes and mouth. It was nice to see that he wasn't so pretty. XD Be a man!
The day before, Yuuki and Shou bought these "powerstone" bracelets and decided to give them out at the instore by rock-paper-scissors. I felt like everything at this instore was so...on-the-spot. Nothing prepared beforehand besides flyers and enquettes. =X I really really really wished that it was more organized. More importantly, the camera-time was...as you can see, pictures w/ the members!!! O_________O Usually, it's just 30sec to snap shots of the members sitting down. Ugh. But this time, we had to do everything all at once. You can imagine how long that took. And I was only the 5th person up.
First they decided to take pics, then handshake. Then they decided it should be handshake then pics. X_X Why couldn't we just do everyone's handshakes first...then do everyone's photos. Umm, hello? FASTER?!! I was actually kinda pissed. And I'm so glad that Yuuki asked for the staff lady to stand up while taking the pictures, and not kneeling down. WTF!? Hate the fail. *sigh* And my pictures are blurry, and I felt really rushed.
But at least I was able to shake all their hands. Strong handshakes & big smiles. XDDD~ Rai's hands were not dead fish this time. REALLY warm. *-* And I confused the fuck outta Jun. :P I made him to the handshake where you grab each other's thumbs. But since that was a bust, I just went w/ regular handshakes for the rest. I couldn't get out anything more than arigatou-nado cuz I felt like everyone was waiting. Also, EVERYONE watches you while the pictures are being done. Embarassing much? There was so much I would have liked to have said. Curse you, PureSound! And your nanimo-junbi-shinakatta-rashii selves. D:
I asked all the members to do double devil horns. Yuuki did that initially, then he just lopped his elbow on my shoulder really hard. I was, like wtf?! oww. Then get on w/ the picture. :D I feel like Shou & Jun look happy, and then Tetsu & Rai try to look hardcore. Yuuki is just Yuuki. I had an idea for my pose w/ Yuuki, but look how badly that failed. I should have kicked up my boot too. =/ It was fun enough. Then, I hurried to get my stuff...but I waited for Kiara's poses. Kiara~ You should have hugged Yuuki! So then, he couldn't hide his face. XD
Then, bought stuff. And gave Yukie the letter. I wanted to tell them I couldn't go to their live the next day cuz I was going to America, but they'll get that in the letter. Hopefully the cookies filled their munchie-cravings.
We left the Azalea room, saw Kaori-tachi for a bit...and then left. I kinda wish we could have stayed to see everyone's photos. Oh well. We want wandering around Shinsaibashi. And I totally saw plainclothes Pashya. Akito still looks really plastic. And Io is a bit dark...and doesn't look all Japanese.
Well, I guess that's enough. On a side note, um Yuuki has gone back into retardom and lost his GUCCI & Justin Davis. That poor boy. He must be grief-stricken. I think that stuff is his soul. That really sucks though. =/ But at least Shou got full on Osaka foods.
I need to catch up on comments.
