一発めぇぇぇぇぇぇぇ! Pamphlet: Kamiyama Tomohiro
Note that I am self-taught, and not a native Japanese speaker. There may be errors. Feel free to share, but please don’t claim this as your own translation. Corrections are welcome.
He's asked to talk about their first concert, about Johnny's WEST, and what he thinks he can do for the group. I also added the Q&A from the end of the pamphlet.
The keyword for the concert this time is simply "The Johnny's WEST".
The gaps are packed all aspects; the contents of the us of right now are meant to be packed tightly into the concert.
Regarding the "1st Concert"
In terms of Johnny's WEST's first concert, we basically shouted "we want to hurry up and do a concert~!" every day (laughs). Everyone who's reading this... it's already the real thing! I'm really happy. This time I thought of the organization with Junta-kun. More than spirit, it's become a concert with a special feeling.
The keyword for the concert this time is simply "The Johnny's WEST". An interesting WEST, a cool WEST, there's also cheerful songs, quiet ballads, there's also fashion, and a sense of people... the gaps are packed in all aspects. The us of right now is packed in the concert tightly, it's meant to be that kind of concert. I didn't just do the planning this time, but I was also able to give a lot of opinions regarding the costumes. The costumes are probably like us. I also want people to focus on that!
Regarding "Johnny's WEST"
If someone asked me "what kind of group is Johnny's WEST?", I'd probably answer "a toy box or a zoo" (laughs). Certainly, during our junior era we were in units with different people, but since that time the 7 of us were often together, there's no sense of discomfort at all. During my junior period, as expected, I thought of myself first. But since debuting as Johnny's WEST, all of those feelings are towards the group. Right now, those feelings have changed from "I want to be the best" to "I want WEST to be the best". And in terms of the members, I feel love towards them more than ever, this is probably the so-called "group love".
What are you able to do for Johnny's WEST?
I've been dancing since I was little. Up until now, I've done dance for about 16 years. I thought "this is my weapon..." I also want to be a choreographer, and I think it would be good if I could become a person who pulls out all of the members I'm supporting when I'm captivating people with dance.
Other than that, I've recently started making music little by little. I've been listening to various songs one after another, and slowly making the song one phrase at a time. It's a lot of fun. Once I start doing it, I can't stop. What I'm aiming for in the near future is to make 2 songs in 2015.
Q&A
The direction of my comedy this year
Originally, I thought I'd do tsukkomi, but because I was unable to overcome Tsukkomi King Junta-kun, this year I'm going to try my best! And if I overcome Junta-kun, then I'll become a tsukkomi!
The ____ power I want to learn this year
The power to think quickly, because I'm the type of person that takes a long time to understand things.
The place I want to go to this year
I want to go to Okinawa! But because I can't swim, I want to do marine sports while wearing a life jacket.
The member that you want to push forward this year
Including myself, all of the members.
Things/items/people that have the image of your member colour
Healing, good for your eyes, kindness, somehow the colour of things that I've gathered around me (like my toothbrush and such), Ohkura Tadayoshi-kun.
If you were to compare Johnny's WEST to food
A pizza with a lot of toppings. Though eating too much of it would cause heartburn, everyone, from children to adults, likes it. It'll be good if we become that kind of group.
