You&Jin in LA 6/20 6pm
I had SO MUCH fun at this show. I was by myself again but I didn't really care. This was the last show so I was dancing and screaming and clapping as hard as I could.
I got to the venue around 4:30 because I REALLY wanted one of the concert pamphlets. Apparently if you got there early enough you could go straight up the stairs to the club to get one. But by the time I figured that out they started the line. I was really close to the front of the line. I swear I was the first white person (possibly the first non japanese) in line >< A little after 5 they started letting us in. I got my pamphlet no problem!! I was very happy!
My seat this time was up on the lower balcony but I could see the whole stage really well! I was a little worried because there were a lot of empty seats on the lower balcony. But once the concert started it looked really full! people might have just waited until the last minute to get back from the bar or something.
Oh. Speaking of the bar when I was talking to one of my friends she told me about the special drinks that they had!
The first one was called LOVEJUICE. It had Absolut Mango, Sprite, and Pineapple. I actually hate all of those flavors but it tasted REALLY good. I got it on principle and I was really surprised that I liked it so much.
Then there was "Jin's Surprise" which had Tanqueray, Tonic and Grapefruit. I didn't have this one but I'm sure it tasted good too~
There was also a non-alcoholic drink called "School Girl Crush" which was Sprite, Orange Juice and Grenadine.
I'm really bad at detailed reports and there are enough of those anyway so I'll just write what I remember. ><
Not much changed between the first show and this one. Juice and boobie came out at the beginning again trying to get the crowd pumped up. They were mostly talking to the people on the floor so the Balcony wasn't too responsive.
Joey T was announced. I didn't realize he was only 16! He's really talented! After Joey was done dancing Juice said "He's only 16. Just pretend he's leagl"
Next was a dance group called....AD I think. I was actually a little confused about their name because Juice and Boobie keept on saying something about "Battle of the Sexes" I don't know. Before they came on Juice said "Gotta love battle of the sexes because someone always ends up on top" LOL. Not a lot of people got that joke ><
Dominic sang again. I yelled a little louder for him because we're from the same state~
Okay so Jin's part of the concert starts. All the dancers were on stage and trying to get us pumped and stuff and Jin just kind of...walks out. he's pushing this cart with a female mannequin on it (there were two of them as props but they were only there for like the first song). So he's pushing the cart and he's stroking her hair. It was kinda funny~ he was dancing around with everyone on stage at one point he turns to one of them and says "Tie your shoelace" lol.
Okay so eternal music box and when he does his robotic intro thing He says the date and he's like "June nine...no 20th" we all laughed at him and he said "That's not funny" Yes it was Jin. Yes it was~ So he finishes the intro and goes into Christmas Morning.

Towards the end of Hey Girl I noticed TONS of girls getting up from their seats and going back to the bar. Either they tried to go downstairs or Jin passes by the one upstairs. I really don't know. I stayed in my seat and watched the live video of him down at the bar. This time it was a tinnnyyy bit longer than the first show and Jin talked a little more. Jin said "I love you guys" and also when he talked about the intermission he was like "Okay we're gonna have a 15 minute inter..." looks at Juice who says "intermission" We all laughed at Jin's mess up. But he was so cute about it!! He was making faces at the camera and alsdkfj he's still such a dork.
Don't be fooled by the Jin we still see on TV. When he's performing at concerts (these ones and you can see it in KAT-TUN concerts too) he's still the same stupid dork he's always been <3
During the intermission the DJ played some songs for us. One of them (for this show and the last one) was the Black Eyed Peas "Boom Boom Pow" which always made me smile because of that Cartoon KAT-TUN episode.
For the dance segment and the "screen Dance" it seemed like something went wrong. for the first show Jin and two other guys wore white jumpsuits and had images projected onto them. That never happened for this show. They had to...stall for a little bit. Jin put one of the guy's shoes on his hands for some reason >< When he took his hands out he smelt them and started fake coughing as if the shoes smelt really bad. LOL Jin. umm more stalling and Jin suddenly started break dancing!!! omg! I was really surprised!!!
Yellow Gold is awesome always. I love My MP3 too <3333
and Finally it was time for the last song T__T Tipsy Love. I love this song so much!! At the beginning when he sings "If you love me would you say Yeah-oh/If you need me would you say Yeah-oh" he was fake crying and sort of "choked-up" on the words while reaching out to his dancers on the other side of the stage. It was funny and really cute~ This song is so cute and everyone was waving their hands and singing the "yeah-ohs"
After he went off stage we clapped so hard. My hands hurt so much. but after what seemed like FOREVER Jin came back out!!!! Omg. we screamed SO MUCH. I think that was the loudest the place got ALL WEEKEND. He was wearing a white hoodie (it looked white from where I was) and it was mostly unzipped and he had no shirt on underneath~ whooo~ He told us that he loves us and made us Promise to come see him again because he was having a US TOUR! I had heard rumors about is all day and even saw it on Mezamashi but to actually hear it from Jin was all the confirmation I needed!
yeah I totally cried. It was really amazing to see him live. I still don't believe that I got to see him.
Comparing the first and the last shows, he seemed like he had even MORE fun at this one. The first one he was smiling and having a lot of fun but he didn't really interact with the audience much. I think he might have been nervous. But this show he talked with us a little more. I saw him do this cute little wave to the audience while he was dancing and the part at the bar in the back was longer too. He made more jokes and he talked to us a little.
