Who needs The Chippendales? We had YFC! [live @ Leipzig]

[schwarzfluegel]

It's past 11 pm, I already tried to write this report twice and failed, since I'm just not able to express everything I felt and still feel in words. It was awesome, really AWESOME. The hall was only half-full, but (to me) it didn't matter. YFC rocked, we rocked. It was simply an amazing night and though I still feel dead, I want to see them again

you were almost standing at the same spot as I was in London

michrophones were too quiet in EVERY venue, it seems. I was really sad I couldn't hear them better. Plus whenever the said something in between I had to strain to hear it and failed every single time ._."
Yeah, I think so. Friends who've been in Berlin wrote in their reports that there the sound was a lot worse. One of them also said that the new songs weren't songs to her, since she didn't hear a clear melodie etc. I didn't hear the lyrics that well, but I could hear the songs. So, the sound was indeed better in Leipzig.

the holy water effect... yeah I got that too. Especially since I was too far away to have a drink from the crew who was walking in front with water bottles. xD So YES PLEASE THROW IT!! xD And then I got a water bottle. HOORAY. xD I was relieved, not so much because it was Gackt/Chacha's bottle (don't remember, lol) but simply because it had WATER. xDDWe didn't even get water from the crew. They were idiots anyway, blocking my sight quite often or refusing to bring scissors when they saw we weren't fighting for

The number-system also worked in last year when I was in Paris to see VAMPS live. Because there was only little space right in front of the entrance. It was simply too chaotic and too much space in front of Haus Auensee to control it. Friends told me that the girls who gave you the numbers weren't able to organize it properly and gave the same numbers to different people

Yep, I don't like pushing and queue-jumping either. I'm even too shy to do the latter myself - I just thought I had a ... right (for lack of a better word) to be on exaclty that spot in the queue, because I had been there right from the start. I guess it was an advantage that nobody seemed to know which of the doors was the right entrance, and luck that nobody told me to leave.

"I'm not sure but I think even I managed to get inside before her xD"
made it sound like you were proud of queue jumping, what would kinda disappoint me.
Oh, I didn't mean it that way. As I said, I wasn't queue-jumping. No one in that queue was in order anyway and then the #16-girl said she would go insane if anyone with number 17, 18 or higher got inside the venue before her. It was only a joke, maybe a bad one, but a joke. And another side-blow on the number-system. I don't even remember it that good, since I was inside after just a few seconds ... and almost got my head cut off by the arm of a security man, because everyone behind me was pushing so hard >

Oh, lol, you already know I camped out for VAMPS last year, luckily it was only 1 day so it wasn't too bad XD But so many days would be quite difficult, especially the whole bathroom/shower thing... Will have to figure something out for L'Arc next year XD

i'm glad you had friends with you during the wait, that always helps to make it feel a bit shorter, and yay for making 2nd row! :D It's great they threw so many things into the audience and that you got part of Chacha's tie~ Omg, seeing Vanilla live sounds so amazing! *drools* And the handcuff part too *_*

ALL FOR LOVE must be a beautiful song and the atmosphere you described is ♥

[schwarzfluegel]

Oh yes! I almost forgot >O< If I'll go to L'Arc next year it'll be the same as always: I'll arrive as soon as possible in the morning, but I will not camp ^^

Yep, friends are definitely helping to keep your mood up. To me it's also not that hard to talk to people I just met at the venue. I just join conversations when the topic is interesting :3
Hrhr~ the fight for Chacha's tie was an interesting one: It was no fight at all, since five of us had someting like a pact - we would share everything we caught in case you can share it. And exactly these five girls (me included) got their hands on the tie when Chacha threw it x3
God, Vanilla WAS amazing! I wanna see it again soooo badly. Friends told me, Tenshin would upload the Berlin show these days, so you could watch it :3
All For Love is just this: LOVE. I'm so looking forward for YFC's album. I guess it'll take some time, but I want it so badly ><

I keep seeing the number system thing popping up - I didn't know that was such a widely used fan method (and with it working more often than not)! How interesting.

I'm so far not real impressed with The End of The Day either - though to be far I've only heard that 10 second clip on the website, so, we'll see.

No one has described the 'All For Love" ballad like that; I'm quite curious now as to how it sounds!

ah - that handcuff thing is priceless! Wonder how long it took them in the end to get them completely off....

[schwarzfluegel]

I only see this mumber system at shows of Japanese artists. I've been to lives of American and European bands and there was no number anywhere. I guess it's a specialty of J-Music fans.

Funnily, when I watched this 16-seconds snipped of the song I really really liked it and was looking forward to finally hear the full version. I blame the bad sound at the beginning of the show ^^

There's also a rip of All For Love at the Berlin show on Youtube. It's just wonderful and magical and I felt just so touched when almost the whole audience started singing the chorus of this song during the break, before the guys came back for the encore <3

Somewhere I read that they needed at least 3 songs to get them off completely. I didn't see it myself, I didn't even noticed that they tried to get them off xDD

[bitrswtsymphony]

Oh it's definitely only for Jrock concerts. I just meant that I didn't think the system was used for Europe Jrock concerts as well - as I know they are used for Jrock concerts over here. I found it interesting that it made its way over the oceans :)

A rip of 'All For Love' huh? Well, hopefully its a good one - I'll have to go look for it - thanks for the tip :)

haha, well damn, they did pretty well to ninja that little situation.
