Another Concert Picspam + mp3 Extravaganza! AAA Taipei. Enjoy!

May 12, 2008 23:18

I have conquered the Zoo, I-80, and 12 hours of rainy driving, and have returned safely to NJ, with most of my pride intact. This calls for a celebration. I bring you AAA Taipei:

As always, be aware that there are gratuitous numbers of screencaps behind this lj cut. I have no self-control. )

mp3, arashi, clearly i need more sleep, concert

*grins*

I'm glad you liked it! I ended up watching this concert twice in the last 3 days. F-for research, of course. In some ways, it was a little harder to talk about since so many of the ourfits have shown up in earlier concerts, or reappear in Dome an dI already picspammed that one. But the COOL & SOUL performance and RIGHT BACK TO YOU? Gold.

And the concert Sakumiya is always cute,and they mix it up with random member-ai throughout.

The entire bit during the encores when they're wearing the green shirts is priceless as well. I-I like this concert a lot. B-but I love Dome too. A-and Time . . .A-nd--

well you get the picture. I like the later concerts because they just seem so much more together with each other, but the earlier ones have some of the most fantastic costume fubars imaginable, so they have a special charm all their own ( ... )

yesssss it is a great concert

on my mac there's this character palette thing that shows up when i click on the language icon thing at the toolbar at the top of my screen, and it has an assortment of symbols and stuff (like, a million symbols and stuff, including different languages and math and etc.)

for ex:

I am fond of the skull and crossbones. And the funky squashed hearts.

Return of the Gay Clown outfits!

I LOVE THESE OUTFITS. If they never wore anything but those outfits, I would be able to live my life contently. JUST SAYIN.

Also. Idnfosjndf. YAY for you finally doing this concert! This is probably my favourite concert. I looooooooves it. I love the encores. I love everything.

I LOVE YOU FOR THIS POST.

Also I love Aiba for being so cute and Sho for being a concert slore and Nino for being evil and Ohno for being Ohno and Jun, well, I would love him, but first I would have to cut out his tongue.

YAY for LOCKY! YAY for love!

uhhh . . .

the clown outfits . . . do you love them because of the insane gay, because you enjoy their pain and humiliation, or . . . do you actually like them??

*long measuring look*

it may be time . . . for a talk:) and a trip to a)therapist or b) eye doctor.

or . . . deprogramming . . .

I do love this concert! There's a lot going on. It needs more Aiba though. He seems a little . . . subdued . . . and I find that unacceptable.
^__^

Sho is a concert . . . huh? siore? *feels dumb*

Jun, well, I would love him, but first I would have to cut out his tongue

HA!

ilu!❤

Hahaha. I LIKE THEM. I think they look adorable in them. It's mostly Ohno's, Sho's and Jun's I like the best. Aiba's is okay. Nino kind of looks like a bloated balloon. BUT FOR THE MOST PART. I looove those costumes. The fact that they had them on during the song Hadashi no Mirai...MAY have helped. Because. Of the. It makes their wiggling adorable, okay! It's all *swish swish* and jdfiosjfds.

Slore! It's a mix between a slut and a whore. Ahaha. Apologies, sometimes I forget not everyone knows my uber strange vocabulary. I try to cut down but sometimes I forget.

SERIOUSLY. Whyyyyy Jun whyyyy. If he just cut out his tongue and never wore sunglasses ever then I think he would just be so much cooler.

I will incorporate this "slore," because I find it humorous:) flange5 May 13 2008, 15:25:31 UTC
I heartily approve of this vocabulary, and thus will assimilate it❤

*stares*

I understand electroshock therapy can help with delusional problems. sometimes. if the delusion isn't too severe. I-it may be too late though.

^_~

But let's face it, they are so pretty, that the costumes are just for amusement's sake really. But . . . the fringe. and stars and butterflies. It really does remind me of Rainbow Brite (if you don't know this relic of the 80s, you should go look it up; it is foul) Or Lisa Frank (ditto).

Amen on the sunglasses and tongue. Though. Jun needs that tongue. I imagine other members of Arashi might be . . . fond of it as well.

^_~

Hadashi no Mirai . . . when I first discovered the concerts, all I could think when I saw this performance was WTF?? Same with Himitsu. Now, though, it has grown on me once I learned to expect and relish the sparkly gay. And their pain and humiliation, which generally, they don't seem to have the sense to notice. good for them.

Yeah, I screencapped the handshake, but it didn't make the cut at 3:30 am. If you want it . . . you'll have to post it yourself^__^

or send me a picspam theme that would include it @__@

What's really sad is that there actually was cutting. I need to be less verbose, I think. But the concerts are done, so that shouldn't be a problem.

Because what the world needs is more nouveau-riche disco vampires. oy.

Yes, the disco outfit does nice things for Sho--it also bequeaths an ass on Aiba--but he still looks like he needs about 4 roast beef sandwiches. And I'm a vegetarian. Ohno . . . I'm on the fence on that one. Nino's doesn't do anything for me at all. Jun's is so ridiculous in its piling-on of pink and purple, that I think I might actually like it. A-and he does have a nice midriff. A midriff in dire need of some meatloaf. With fried eggs on top.

^__^

Hi! I'm glad you commented-- and even happier you like the picspams!!

I actually kind of like the gold and black too ^__~

I just think it's funny how often they drag it out for the 'harder' looks/songs-- the lame gold vests for la tormenta (HIG I think?) and I want somebody (Iza?) I'll be able to keep them straight someday.

They were rubbing off the glitter in the middle of the concert??? LOL. And I think this is at least the second if not third tour they wore these for . . . nice, guys.

I love making fun of the clothes . . . but . . . they are kind of awesome . . .
especially when they almost look like they could pass for normal, either in cut or fabric, but then there's something that just makes it ridiculous--like the black brocade suits--they look fairly normal--but lace shirts?? and the gloppiest rhinestones I've ever seen?? There's no reason for that, except pure fabulousity.

*glees for picspam love*

Oh God. Thank you for the link!

I know I'm getting desensitized, but one of the great things about screencapping is that it makes me really stop and pay attention again. And then it's hilarious all over again ^__^

Yes--the huge feathers and man-eating seafoam ruffles were just beyond the pale. Also worth honorable mention, just for the weird were those random robes out of puple and silver lame that they wore in the dance interlude before Cry for you. They weren't the tackiest things I've seen, but they were up there in terms of randomness--because-- ajsdlfjaljdfkajjkdfa;jf WHY? A-and laser guns. I know I keep harping on them, but I don't understand why I seem to be the only one obsessing over the sheer randomness of the the laser guns.

I am completely fine with SakuOhmiya groping and Sakumiya rabu ^__^ I really don't understand how one could enjoy this fandom and not. Hee But then, I'm not really an OTP-type, so it's all equal opportunity.

*goes to click on link for the fun*
