<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">We are currently in the month of December and GLAY Expo occurred</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> about three months ago. Wow, that went by quick. On my journey to and during the event, I jotted down a few notes. This won't be a detailed entry on the concert, but many photos were taken, so I hope you enjoy!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">With time left to spare, I made it to Tokyo station to hop on the Tohoku Shinkansen to Sendai. I had arrived thirty minutes earlier and asked a station worker there where the platform for Sendai is. I guess I misunderstood the person and he was kind of rude when I asked him a second time, which annoyed me, but I was able to make it and that's all that counts, right?</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Hello Sendai! I arrived at Shin Sendai station and it is a wonderful day! It's really sunny and bright outside. So thanks to the weather, the Expo is going to be even better! Not a cloud in the sky. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I chilled out at the Starbucks at the station before boarding on a much shorter train ride to Iwakiri station. Unfortunately, the venue is a 45 minute walk away from that station. Not looking forward to it, especially with the sun blazing. (Yes, I could take a taxi, but that would have been expensive.)</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">After the looooong, nearly 4km walk, I made it to the venue: Hitomebore Stadium Miyagi. There were staff members that stood along the walk route to make sure the fans were heading in the right direction. I kind of felt sorry for them because it was so hot outside.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">WHOA! The amount of people that I saw at the stadium was just simply insane! It took forever for me to get around. I quickly took pictures of the tour truck and got in line for goods, which took me all of eternity to find the end of the line. I swear, it felt like I spent 20 minutes looking for the stupid "line ends here" sign. While in line, I had a better view of certain places, so I took the opportunity to take more photos. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">With an extremely starving stomach, I got in line for kakigori and then got off after being on it for 30 minutes because the line didn't seem to be moving at all! I decided to get in line for some actual food and I was on it for about 90 minutes and still had a long way to go before reaching the front of the line. It was already about 15:30, concert begins at 16:30. Pissed and annoyed as hell, I got off the line. Had I known it would be like this, I would have gotten food at the convenience store on my way to the venue. Anyways, I decided to at least get some GLAY Glico since the line was surprisingly short. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>Concert Notes</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I absolutely love the guys' outfits! They all wore black, which were accented with white jackets. Forever stylish these guys are.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Takuro's somewhat long speech in English was just amazing. Those private lessons are truly paying off.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Teru + taiko.... shirtless. Teru playing the taiko shirtless. omg, let me breathe.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The Jiro vs. Hisashi segment was interesting. The video shown before it was hilarious!</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Teru crying before singing "Bible" broke my heart.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">During "Hashire Mirai" out LED watches lit up for the first time. It was pretty cool. It was also my first time hearing the song and it is absolute love.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Cried for the first time during "I'm Just in Love." It just happened and it caught me by surprise. I can't remember if this is my first time hearing it live...</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">At the end of the show, before the encore, the LED watches lit up saying "GLAY EXPO." We then got a rather amazing fireworks display.</span></li>
</ul>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Sadly, I had to leave before the encore in order to make it to my Shinkansen ride back to Tokyo. I wasn't the only one in the same predicament as I saw others leaving as well. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Had to say goodbye to the LED watch. I quickly took a picture of it before giving it back to the staff.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The Glico contents. I bought two sets, which was the limit. I already ate the edible contents of one of them and that was only a month ago.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> I really had a wonderful time at the Expo even with the setbacks. It was just great to be able to experience the atmosphere that the Expo generated. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I'm also happy to end the year with GLAY like I did four years ago. I'll be seeing them in Fukuoka the weekend before 2015 arrives. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">So, with that said, happy holidays~</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Ok, so this post is a throwback. Well, not really. I never wrote about the GLAY LiB event I attended back in late July of last year. GLAY's yearly summer event was being held in Osaka, which lead up to the BIG summer HOTEL GLAY lives.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">To start off, the summer heat was absolute death. The line for the goods was insanely long and having to wait outside in that heat was killing me. I would say it took about an hour before entering the building where the good were being sold. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">At the entrance, GLAY greeted us... well, these guys at least.</span></div>

<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Earlier this month, THE BAWDIES started their 1-2-3 Album Tour. They will be venturing to ALL 47 prefectures in Japan. I was extremely lucky to get tickets to their lives in Miyazaki and Kumamoto. At the same time, I applied to their lives in Saga and Fukuoka, but I wasn't so lucky. I got a second chance though. THE BAWDIES announced not too long ago that they will be extending their tour... only this time, they will be performing at larger venues. Last weekend, I was able to obtain tickets to their live at Zepp Fukuoka on June 6th. </span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I'm so looking forward to these lives! Doing Miyazaki and Kumamoto will be tough though. It will be a three-hour bus ride from where I live to Miyazaki City. I leave the following morning to Kumamoto, which is about a two-hour ride. Then, right after the concert, I will take the train back home that will take about two hours. Plus, this is THE BAWDIES we're talking about. Attending just one of their lives will absolutely <i style="font-weight: bold;">drain</i> you - I'm attending two, back-to-back. Oh. And I have work the following day, go me.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">One week from now, GLAY will enbark on their 2013 JUSTICE & GUILTY Arena Tour in Japan. The first location will be at Osaka-jo Hall in Osaka. I really, <b>really</b> wanted to attend this concert, but I wasn't able to get tickets. From what I've experienced, GLAY lives in Osaka are simply the best! The fans are definitely more outgoing. I will be attending the tour on April 27 & 28 in Fukuoka and also on May 5 in Saitama.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> Another fantastic concert from GLAY! Even though I had standing tickets way up in the nose-bleed section, I had the best time EVER!!! The back row looked like a dance hall; it was awesome! And so many of us in my section kept screaming out their names!! It's nice not being the only one doing the screaming. I made good friends with the girl standing next to me. Omg, this girl was a head-banging freak---love her!! I invited her to stand next to me before the concert began because she was standing behind me and I had a feeling she wanted to fit in closer to the railing. She thanked me profusely. Then 汚れなきSEASON came up. Omg, this girl was head-banging like her life depended on it. I was just laughing to myself. She was so~ into the songs; the entire back audience was. It was just incredible. When FATSOUNDS and 彼女 came up, she and I were doing all sorts of crazy stuff together! Us standing people where dancing the hell out of these songs! (Ok, not really "dancing"... body movements I guess.) Awesomeness!! I spoke with that girl (her name's Kaori) throughout the encore chants and after the show. We exchanged contacts and we're definitely going to a GLAY live together! Another friend gained! </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><lj-cut> <b>1.</b> They changed up the MJ section (most likely because this is their 3rd time in Osaka). Instead of seeing the scrolling intro of "THE KING OF POP!" we saw "THE KING OF HIGHCOMMUICATIONS!!" and we screamed like mad! They played HICOMMUNICATIONS as the KIMSNAKE GLAY were in MJ Thriller gear doing the HC arm movements! We were doing it along with them! Love, love, love! At the end, the KIMSNAKE GLAY were struck by lightning (or something) and their after-look was just hilarious! </lj-cut></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><lj-cut> <b>2.</b> During the encore, Teru was trying to convince Jiro to do another Osaka Crash Night live. He asked us to yell out, "Osaka. Crash. Night. YAY!!!" We did that and Jiro said he wasn't convinced. Our reaction was, "Eeeeeeeeee." Teru then asked us to try again. This time he said, "Osaka. Crash. Night.... YAY!!!" ((Osaka. Crash. Night. (ten) (ten) (ten) YAY!!! (As he said "ten" he gestured it by pointing.))) He said this quietly into the mic. We then did it and Jiro said he'll think about it. I'd really like to go if he does make another CRASH live. </lj-cut></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><lj-cut> <b>3.</b> There was a point where Teru made a small mistake. (Can't remember which song.) As he continued singing, he tilted his head to one side and gave this look. As if he would have said, "so, I goofed, who cares. lol" </lj-cut></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><lj-cut> <b>4.</b> They played "Apologize"!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ♥♥♥ (I miss 都忘れ though. I haven't heard it since the Fukuoka live. ;_;) </lj-cut></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><lj-cut> <b>5.</b> I've said this before, but I freaking love the FAME IS DEAD video!!! The part when Hisashi smashes a guitar against Takuro's head is so~ funny!! He had the most insane look on his face while doing it too. Love it~ </lj-cut></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><lj-cut> <b>6.</b> I seriously love his solo in GREAT VACATION! I've always loved it!! But hearing it live; I fist pump my hands in the air to the beat. </lj-cut></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><lj-cut> <b>7.</b> Continuing with Hisashi; He came out with something new. We're used to seeing him with beer cans or his PSP, but this time, he was drinking one of these things↓</lj-cut></span></div>

<lj-cut><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b> 8.</b> Takuro received a standing ovation when he bowed to us at the end. I yelled out his name three times as I clapped. Many other people in my area were doing the same. When he rose, he mouthed off, "arigatou" twice. Takuro is such an amazing person and GLAY wouldn't be here if it weren't for him.

(I love these books, btw.) I'll be doing my own 100 favorite things... only it'll be restricted to things in Japan like: places, personal items, food/drinks, things to do, etc. I'll post it once a week for the next 100 weeks. Yup, this'll last for almost two years. I plan to stay in Japan for an additional 2-3 years, so this will be done. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; line-height: 15.59375px;">The album starts off with the Jiro-composed number, </span></span><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; text-align: left;"><i style="line-height: 15.59375px;">WHO KILLED MY DIVA.</i><span style="line-height: 15.59375px;"> (Uh, yes, that is indeed the name of the song. Way better than its preliminary name of "yeah,yeah,yeah (blank)" at least.) When I first saw the title, I couldn't help but laugh. I mean, come on, who wouldn't. Also because of the title, I had really high hopes for it. That was all shattered when I heard the song. Ugh, </span>Jiro<span style="line-height: 15.59375px;">, seriously? The song sounds like something that would be played around a campfire in the American south. I will say that I find the chorus to be a bit catchy, but that was when it finally grew on me. </span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 15.59375px; text-align: left;">The next track, <i>ROUTE 5 BAYSHORE LINE</i>, made up for the horrid that my ears had to take from the previous song. This track was previously released on the「運命論」single. There are differences between the two, but I enjoy the single version just a bit more because the "twinkles" were left out in this version. I love the "twinkles!" Anyway, I absolutely adore this song. It has a very nice, uplifting feel to it. </span></div>

<span style="color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><i style="line-height: 15.59375px;">PARADISE LOST</i><span style="line-height: 15.59375px;">, is yet other great song. What amazes me the most about the song is its baseline. Oh my word. Jiro tore that thing up! I also like the guitar riffs during the chorus. The song itself has a bit of a Spanish feel to it, which is more pronounced during the chorus. Oh, I so, so love the guitar right after the second chorus, but before the guitar solo/intermission. Yes, I like being specific.</span></span></div>

<span style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 15.59375px;">Continuing with the album's nice pace of good songs, in comes the next track, <i>LOVE IMPOSSIBLE</i>.</span></span></span><span style="color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 15.59375px;"> <b>I. LOVE. THIS. SONG. </b>The style, vocals, guitar riffs/solo - </span></span><span style="color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 15.59375px;">It's an all-round great song!</span></div>

<span style="color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 15.59375px;">The next track, </span><span style="background-color: white; text-align: left;"><i style="color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 15.59375px;">真昼の月の静けさに</i><span style="color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 15.59375px;">, is an OK song. I absolutely love the acoustic guitar at the beginning along with Teru's gentle and soothing singing voice. Afterwards, however, my attention just wonders off. I don't know. I really like the initial gentleness of the song, which eventually comes back near the end of the track.</span></span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 15.59375px;">The following track is the Hisashi-composed piece, </span><i style="line-height: 15.59375px;">gestalt.</i><span style="line-height: 15.59375px;"> Oh man, this track sounds so dark, spooky and evil - fits Hisashi to the T! I like it and it makes for a nice transition to the next song...</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 15.59375px;">Back to back Hisashi! The song, </span><i style="line-height: 15.59375px;">JUSTICE [from] GUILTY</i><span style="line-height: 15.59375px;">,</span><span style="line-height: 15.59375px;"> is another Hisashi-composed song, which was released earlier as a single of the same name. Words simply cannot express my love for it. </span></span><span style="color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 15.59375px;">The song is all sorts of awesomeness!! Definitely the heaviest song on the album. </span><span style="color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 15.59375px;">It's a Hisashi/Takuro pair track and this 10-hit combo duo generally produce magic together. Just take a listen to the song for yourself. Your ears will thank you.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 15.59375px;">Next up is </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-style: italic; line-height: 15.59375px; text-align: left;">傷だらけの太陽.</span><span style="background-color: white; text-align: left;"><i style="color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 15.59375px;"> </i><span style="color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 15.59375px;">Wow. Wow. <b><span style="font-size: large;">Wow.</span></b> This song is just so amazing. It's written and composed by Teru and he did this song justice; It's so powerful. </span></span></span><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 15.59375px; text-align: left;">Teru's voice is really astounding throughout this song. </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 15.59375px; text-align: left;">I particularly</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 15.59375px; text-align: left;"> love the chorus.</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 15.59375px; text-align: left;"> The part where he sings out, 「あなたは強く強く」 in the last chorus really grippes me.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 15.59375px; text-align: left;">"The sun is always shining behind the clouds." - this is faintly heard after the first chorus. It's meaning is a strong one, so strong that Teru has it tattooed on his upper left arm. Quite honestly, I can listen to this song forever and never get tired of it. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-size: 12px; line-height: 15.59375px;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 15.59375px;">The ballad, </span><i style="color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 15.59375px;">運命論</i><span style="color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 15.59375px;">, was composed by Jiro. This is yet another fantastic song! </span><i style="color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 15.59375px;"> </i><span style="color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 15.59375px;">It was released as a single of the same title, but unfortunately, there is no album version/edit. Anyway, this song is so compelling and meaningful. Whenever I listen to this song, I tear up. 「夢の重さに負けないで」"Never give in to the weight of your dreams." Definitely words to live by. </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 15.59375px;">You won me over with this one, Jiro.</span></span></div>

<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 15.59375px;">The final song, <i>SMILE, </i>gets none from me. I don't like the song. Granted, I've listened to it only three times and I don't think I can sit through another round of it.</span></span></div>

</span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The album starts off with the Red moon & Silver sun rendition <i>My Private "Jealousy."</i> This version of the song was the kick-off song on GLAY's 2011-2012 Red Moon & Silver Sun Hall Tour. I remember loving it when I first heard it on tour. The first three minutes or so of the song is an orchestrated version of the original chorus. I really love how it later dives right into the actual song. You're waiting for it... waiting for it and then "bam" it hits off with the guitars. Love it! </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Next up is the Hisashi rock number, <i>everKrack, </i>which is quite simply a killer song! It was released as a single back in 2011 and I heard the mess out of the song, but I love this version a bit more. Takuro slam dunked that solo! </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><i>FACTORY</i>, is a compelling and thought provoking song that I love a lot. A definite favorite song of mine on the album. </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">"We must make things better, but we don't know what to do." Chilling. </span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: xx-small;">(However, every little bit still counts. Do your research as to where and how your favorite brand of clothing is made. Don't support clothing brands that are known to have their employees work in deplorable conditions.) </span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Unfortunately, for the next song, </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; text-align: left;"><i>冬の遊歩道</i>,<i> </i>I haven't listened to it enough to give an opinion on it<i>. </i>Well, I quite simply don't care for the song. It's a ballad. I do love ballads, but just not this one.</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; text-align: left;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; text-align: left;"><i>華よ嵐よ, </i>is actually a song that grew on me. Hisashi's guitar playing before the chorus is what I love most about the song.</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333;"><span style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><i>キリノナカ </i>is your typical Takuro song<i> </i>and an amazing one at that<i>. </i>It's yet another song that was previously released on a single, which I love to death. It's a mild rock number, but it's just SO good! I like the added guitar parts during the second verse.</span></span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333;"><span style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The following song, </span></span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; text-align: left;"><i>初恋を唄え</i>, is another ballad that I'm still trying to get into. I really like the chorus though. </span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; text-align: left;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; text-align: left;">The last three songs (</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; text-align: left;"><i>Bible</i>, <i>Ruby's Blanket </i>and </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; text-align: left;"><i>君にあえたら</i>) were all previously release on singles and are edit-free on this album. I don't really have much to say about them. I love <i>Ruby's Blanket</i> the most. It's a Jiro-composed song and he did a wonderful job with it. I find the melody to be so sweet. <i>Bible</i> is an OK song. I don't hate it, but I'm not in love with it. </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; text-align: left;"><i>君にあえたら, </i>is just there. I don't really care much for this song, but it is a very meaningful one.</span></span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Between the two albums, <b>JUSTICE</b> is definitely my favorite. I'm easily able to listen to the album with only a couple skips through songs I don't really care for. Now, that's not to say that I don't like <b>GUILTY</b>. The album does have its fair share of good songs, but for some reason, the album as a whole doesn't grab me as much as <b>JUSTICE </b>does. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The <i>MISS TAKE ~boku ha miss take~</i> single is absolute love! Loved it when I first heard the song on their last nico nico program, but now, I'm really hooked on it. <i>ONLY YOU</i> is also a very good song. It's really catchy, but it's kind of hard to believe that it's an Imai/Imai song.... like really, it is. <i>My baby Japanese</i> <i>-type II-</i> is a fabulous remix!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The limited edition of the single comes with a 24-pages photo booklet, which is gorgeous!! This single is definitely worth your yenz.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I typically HATE buying singles (GLAY is an exception), but B-T has a promotion going on with the purchase of both these singles. Either versions of the singles above (regular or limited edition) will include a coupon that you can mail in together to be included in a lottery for an upcoming PV shooting!! How cool is that? There will be a total of 300 lucky fans that will be able to win. I'm hoping that luck will be on my side since I don't plan on buying more copies. Uh... please don't buy more copies than I did, ok??</span></div>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06877948009902953958noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6773101017225257979.post-11330935453733068392012-07-02T08:30:00.000+09:002012-07-02T19:23:16.326+09:006.24 BUCK-TICK @ Zepp Fukuoka w/MUCC<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">On June 24th, I attended my first BUCK-TICK live, which took place at Zepp Fukuoka. It's was a downpour of a day!! The rain was so heavy; it was terrible having to wait in line until it was time to entire the venue. I stood in line with my huge umbrella hovered over me that seemed to have annoyed the person behind me. I felt the water sipping into my boots, which eventually soaked my socks. These didn't matter though. The highlight was that it would be just mere minutes before I would be able to see B-T!!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">My entrance number was #1092 (the venue can hold up to 2001 people), but I positioned myself in the live house so that I would be directly in the center and thus in direct view of Atsushi. I would say that I right in the center of the venue, so I still had a clear view of everything on stage. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">MUCC played out the set list first. This was my first time hearing this band's music. Initial impressions: loud music is loud!! They brought in a lot of energy to the crowd, which I'm sure included many of their fans. I'll admit, I got into their music and found myself fist pumping to their song <i>Falling Down </i>as well as a few others.<i> </i>MUCC's rendition of <i>JUPITER </i>was fantastic in my opinion. During their act, I noticed that Imai was watching the performance to my right on the second floor. He looked a bit stoic, but his presence was strong.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">After MUCC was done and the equipments changed, BUCK-TICK came out. It was finally happening!!! Just seeing them on stage made me go crazy!! The guys looked amazing, with Atsushi looking as sexy as ever</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small; line-height: 16px;">♥ </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; line-height: 16px;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">All four MUCC members were watching the live from the same area Imai was previously. </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">They opened up with their latest single <i>ELISE no tame ni</i>! The energy in the crowd was even more amazing!!! I truly regretted not buying a muffler towel because I was sweating from all the vigorous movements I was doing, but it was all good. They played their soon-to-be-released single, <i>boku no MISS TAKE</i>. It's was such a delight to here them perform this song; I love the song so, so much!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">As much as I adore Atsushi, he continues to be the most eccentric performer that I've witness so far. He just does really odd/questionable things on stage. For instance, there was a rather large lamp on the stage. During the intermission part of a couple songs, he would pick up the huge lamp and shove the glaring light into the faces of all four members. Uh... why? Don't worry, Atsushi. I still love you and your quirkiness</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small; line-height: 16px;">♥</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white;">A few weeks ago, I applied to become a member of BUCK-TICK's fan club, FISH TANK. Yesterday, I received the membership card in the mail :3 I'm fan number 29212. Now, I'll be able to attend FISH TANKers ONLY lives! Can't wait for those. Next Sunday, I'll see them live for the first time at Zepp Fukuoka!!!</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white;"> In addition to becoming a FISH TANKer, I decided to sign up to B'z PARTY as well. I'm currently waiting for the membership card to arrive. So, as of now, I'm a member of HAPPY SWING (GLAY... since 3/2010), FISH TANK (BUCK-TICK) and B'z PARTY (B'z).</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white;"> In other news, in my previous entry, I mentioned that I applied for GLAY's live house concert being held at Osaka's Namba Hatch... Well, the results came in last week and I won the lottery!!! My first GLAY live house live!!! The live house has a capacity of 1500. I lucked-out BIG TIME!! The ticket has been paid for and I also went ahead and booked my plane tickets. A full week in OSAKA baby! Filled with GLAY goodness! </span></div>

<span style="background-color: white;">I've had my copy of "Bible" since its released date on the 23rd of March. Initial press orders purchased from G-DIRECT came with a coaster of the single cover (like I'm actually going to use it lol). I like the casing and lyrics booklet print & design. The booklet is actually attached to the CD casing.
The CD and DVD contents are pure love!! Whenever I listen to "Bible" I get teary-eyed and the MV is energizing yet, touching at the same time. I like that it's in B&W for nearly the entire video only for the color to be brought out near the end. The live contents are great! Saw some Teru/Jiro loving, Teru making women cry and the guys doing their traditional pre-live send-off only this time... octaves higher XDDD This was yet another single well spent!
The single includes an entry number to apply for a live house concert at NAMBA Hatch in Osaka on 7/24. I applied for it, of course. Here's hoping!!

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> I am seriously loving BUCK-TICK so much right now!
I watched their Nico Nico event last night. It started at 9PM and lasted a little past 12AM. The first hour was used to show clips of their MVs from '87 to '10. This was awesome because, like I've said before, I haven't seen much of their MVs before this. Seeing these videos resulted in my liking a few of the songs that were played. :3
Then the guys came on an hour later. Uh... they're not a talkative bunch are they? Poor Hide. He was a nervous wreck!! He said it himself that he was nervous and the MC kept asking him from time to time if he was ok; even to ask him one time that he looked sleepy... lol. Imai is a bit too serious. I've read that he's a shy guy and I can understand because I'm a bit timid myself, but he just needed to relax a bit. The brothers, Toll and U-ta, seem to have such nice personalities, especially U-ta; he was so cute and amiable. I like him. Atsushi..... ahhhhhhhh, this man. First off, he is gorgeous! I love his smile and wide grins so, soooooo much! He also gave off friendly vibes. X3 </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> So the MC asked them a few questions from the fans. One of them was this: "What would you do or where would you go on a date?" Imai's response was a simple "movie and dinner." Atsushi's response was "a motel." LMAO!!! What a joker; that had me rolling.
Near the end of their talk session, their new MV "boku wa miss take" was shown. OMG! It was so freakin goooooooooood!!!!!! I wanna see it again! D: I can't remember how the song went, but I loved it so much.... and the MV... damn. I wonder if it's up on YT yet...
The talk session ended at 11:30PM and for the past 30 mins, footage from their recently released live DVD/Blueray was shown! More songs were heard for the first time and to my liking. Mainly --> ROMANCE,...IN HEAVEN...and MOON LIGHT.
CAN'T WAIT TO SEE THEM LIVE!!!!!!!!!
(I may also see them in Tokyo on July 7th if my friend has an available ticket. :D) </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">It's always nice to have something new to listen to. So, for the past couple of months, I have been (inactively) looking for a new band to listen to. About a week ago, I noticed that BUCK-TICK was celebrating their 25th anniversary, so I decided to search for their PVs on youtube. It wasn't "love at first sight" (or hearing, I guess) but I thought they were ok enough to venture further and rent their last three albums: Razzle Dazzle, Momento Mori and Tenshi no Revolver. And guess what? I really enjoy what I'm hearing :D</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white;"> <span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Regarding their music, they seemed to have experimented with quite a few genres of rock music. I haven't looked into their discography that much to distinguish their sound between albums. From what I've heard, however, it sounds pretty general rock with a pinch of retro-ness (doku danjou Beauty -R.I.P.-! X3)

Ok, so I haven't watched many of their MVs... but I absolutely love their <i>Doku danjou Beauty -R.I.P.-</i> MV!! It was the first MV of theirs that I saw. I love the song, the visuals and well, Atsushi looks so damn GOOD!! That hairstyle is so hot! X3</span></lj-cut></div>

It will give me a chance to see how fans act and a total view of the band. Next time though, I'd like to have a nice view of Atsushi!
Atsushi can be a bit quirky in MVs and lives. Sometimes I wonder if he's ok in he head lol.</span></lj-cut></div>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06877948009902953958noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6773101017225257979.post-11341818277116573862012-05-25T18:55:00.000+09:002012-06-27T19:02:29.213+09:0018 years.<br />

<span style="background-color: white;">It has been 18 years since GLAY made their major debut back in 1994 on this very day.
I've been a fan of theirs for such a short time, but I'm so happy that I found out about them when I did.
GLAY, I wish you continued success in the future. You guys will </span><i style="background-color: white;"><b>always</b></i><span style="background-color: white;"> be my number 1 band.</span></div>
