2007 Endless Shock Report 上篇

Yabai yabai! Its been almost 2 months since last watched endless shock. I cant believe it! Gomen everyday, really busy lah. Dakara no time to type my reports. Etto… I noe you guys gonna scream at me if I say I squeezing all my reports into one essay. Demo gomen ne! As this happened earlier than Keri’s concert, thus my memories are fading even more…
Mazu mazu kochira> Days went
2月21日24日26日27日
Yeayea… can hear all those screamings n cursings coming from everywhere. Yesh! 4 nights! (don’t come and ask me how much I spent thanks!)
Basically my first 2 nights are 1 kai seats n last 2 nights 2 kai seats. All from different angels (of cos).
Chinamini, my best seat award comes from my bonus show 24th Feb. It was right at the spot where kochan standby for why don’t you dance with me… (shoutings n screamings again…)my happiest nite!
Theatre> Small and cosy, nice n cool, the very best chance to see kochan UP CLOSE! Imagine his face right into ur face if u use the binoculars… unlike Tokyo dome, sit at arena also cannot catch a close glimpse of his face… kelian!
Goods売り場> more high class than concert goods 売り場(apparently cos its imperial theatre), queue was dam long but still no matter wat u still get to buy whatever u wan…unless u are those crazy kinds who buy all photos la…
Other 売り場>food and beverage (ebikatsu sandwich super oishii! Takai though…)Dars chocolate 帝国限定、納豆巻 n all kinds of snacks…
Endless Shock
Opening> was so gandong to see Kochan appearing at the first scene cos very long time never see him liao…(約1年2ヶ月)btw, my mum was with me e first night. She seemed to enjoy the show throughout. (yokatta!)
Kochan was really thin as Most female dancers were either e same size as him if not (bigger) than him lor…Poor thing, dunno wat e hack Johnny is thinking… 81 shows?! Is that number necessary?! Bakabaka!
MA> at some pt of time, Akiyama was rushing through his 台詞n couldn’t catch his breath during the stage intro. But his sense of humour covered everything else. Guo ran shi MA’s biggest entertainer…
Apparently kochan appeared really tired during my first night. He almost lost his voice though he still forced himself to sing (sometimes out of pitch lol). He dropped his stick during the 2nd night I went. (e part where he suppose to make fake Rika disappear). Could see that he was quite distracted by tat unwanted mistake. Toma’s dancing was so exaggerating… I couldn’t help but laughed… Sorry ah, Toma fans I don’t mean to laugh at him manz. I just thought he could put in more effort to brush up his steps lah… Somehow very flimsy. Tsubasa makes a better dancer cum singer seriously!
Rika> Nice and Kawaii girl. At least better than last yr’s Rika lah… (in my opinion) was amazed by her tap dancing with Akiyama during around the world> china
Have no complaints about her though my fren complain her voice sounded like anime character. Can see closing to the end she very 必死, which really impressed me.
Broadway streets> This part was very fun and relaxing. N it’s e part whereby Kochan first saw the Pro Drummer> Naoki. (fabulous drumming skills! Kakkoii!)
E part where Rika mention bout Kochan appearing in New York Times was quite happening too. As my binos were always on Kochan, could see him playing scissors paper stone for the Papers with Rika. (don’t noe anyone realize tat part anot har…)
Around the world> this part many happenings sia!
It started with Terry sensei introducing the American members. Their body dam flexible lo. Buay tahan… Over 180degree hitch kicks, triple pirouette, super grand jetes… Win liao lorz! All potential ballet dancers…Super all rounded also.
The part where Kochan changes on stage was very entertaining… (gosh wat m I toking about!) nah…cos if u see DVD, everything is hidden angle, but over there if you sit at the right angle, you could see him stripping and wearing clothes lah… lol
Tap> Toma’s tap very violent. Not light enough lah… Yonehana appeared quite charming when flipping to the front stage. Machida was really kawaii when he rap. (though not up to standard but still very funny lah)
China Tap> Akiyama & Rika> nice Chinese couple!!! Hahaha I love the music.
Brazil> Yara dropped his orange string on the floor. N MAD members were having a good time to seize chance to pick up the string….(but still….FAILED) Akiyama was the one who bluffed his way to the spot and picked up the string during the Irish tap scene.
Actually they dropped many stuff during the tap dances lah. Some of them were picked up by the juniors. Naisu!!! Claps!!!
Love and Loneliness> Kakkoii Kochan 登場!suuuuuper charming! Everyone was soooo quiet during his solo tap. How I wish I mastered my tap in e past… Zannen!
His duet dance with Rika was quite ok la… I always scare he screw up his back flip toward the end of the song. Luckily nothing happen. Lol
Greece> most scary part! Where got ppl use leg and spin one! It was said that Akiyama’s thumb nail came off a few shows b4 my first night. (pain lorz) Reason: too kanjiong in spinning Kochan while ensuring his safety up there in the air. Goodness, there was once Kochan didn’t complete fasten the rubber band b4 he spins in the air. His face was like> no time already so hack care lah, die jiu die lor…. Imagine e audience hearts pumping so loudly during the spins… Apparently he didn’t make it on time to come down n just hurried to the front to do the pirouette turns for the finale. Reliefs!!!! That was Endless Shock indeed…
Backstage scene
This is the part Toma became mad n scold e staff den kena scolded by Kochan la. Basically it’s a scene for Kochan to catch his breath for e nxt scene (haha).
Japaneseque
Beginning setting abit different from e previous ones. The fighting scenes were quite improved. Poor Kochan panting so seriously throughout the whole scene. Especially the rolling down of stairs. (btw, he n Toma applied the ‘blood’ on his face b4 he roll down e stairs. ITAI!!!!!!!!!!! I tink I would hav jus died if I roll down the stairs like Kochan. >_<
Anyway, that’s it for Act 1.

KERI 仙台コンサレポ


Please forgive me for squeezing 3 days report into one report entry. Cos really no memory and energy to comment them one by one la. Basically, the 会場is situated at this ulu ulu place in sendai where we need to take a 20mins shuttle bus in order to get to the venue. Hidoi deshou!!! And for everybody’s info, a two way trip ticket costs 1000yen. Woohoo! Nice money spent even b4 u get to the venue lor… diaos
N when the bus arrives, we still need to walk across the road n then head further in before we get the first glance of the 会場…gosh! How on earth can a Kinki Kids member open his solo concert at such ulu field sia… There were Nothing except one seven eleven n some factories. According to Keri, he didn’t meant to choose that place but cos of many reasons he had to move his tank there. (poor boy…) Anyway, the tank was really a tank, e size of a container!!! I couldn’t believe my eyes when I walked into the tank. The place was super small that I don’t even need to use my binoculars. My first night seats was e first Standing block on the right of the stage. Second row!!! No one blocked my view n I had a happy time looking at keri without the bino during the whole night…My second night was at C block and my All last was at D block. Incomparable with my first night seat (though there wasn’t any chair for me) cos it was too near the stage…
Goods 売り場>very empty! Want buy what jiu slowly choose n see n den queue n buy>wont miss it!
Keri bread and cookies> forget about it! Gave up after all… Tried 3 days… go how early also no use. Always sold out. That was a small ordeal la.
Entrance> Big screen showing sankaku illumination, Keri statue n big sankaku on the wall. Basically, everything was Purple.
Staff> those inside mostly guys… all guys I shld say cos I didn’t see any girls. E one standing infront of me on the first night was really kakkoii. Lol!
That was a bonus hahaha…
Seats> standing block was super COLD! I almost died cos there was a big fan infront of me. Idiot la, the rest of the 会場all heater, only my side got BIG fan… cold sweat! Seating block seats were normal foldable chairs. Not comfortable (of cos) as they are only meant for putting our barang barang.
Audience> Many guys! People from all ages! N they are all of one kind>Crazy! Everyone jumps and dances during the concert.
Concert> well, keri’s singing is too good to be commented la…lol
He starts the concert by singing Someiyoshino with electric piano accompaniment. (dangerous attempt cos ppl who don’t know this song usually falls asleep as it was too quiet) There was a piece of big cloth covering the whole stage for a longlong time b4 they release it off. (my neck really grew long during the first night manz)
After which sankaku came out during Sparkling to introduce the band members. (cute voice!) I love the members this time cos minna have their own 個性. Susumu apparently was very famous though he has totally no looks… Very good entertainer during those freestyle sessions. He did very rubbish things like scarf dance, Chinese dance, agogo dance n some other chapalang dance la. Keri was soooooooooooo high during the last night, he did 7?! Sorry I lost count! He did more than 5 cartwheels bah… gosh! Never see him doing so many cartwheels in my life b4 sia. That day he super hyper loh…
MC> First day mc was really frightening as he mumbled throughout the concert. N honestly, even though e speaker was right infront of me I couldn’t catch what he was saying. Not because I don’t know 日本語 but he really didn’t speak clear enough for my ears to listen. That was so worrying as I tot something happen to him again loh… turn out e second n third night he super high spirits n even bothered to play with the audience. (what happen to you during the first night la KERI!) n this fellow kept mention about James Brown being his idol… diaos! 2nd Day was more about guitar playing than MC cos he don’t seem to have the mood or time to talk. (btw, he talks with the lights OFF) so u cant see his face during MC…3rd day MC was about human and 宇宙… he talks over n over about his 宇宙n our 宇宙…we shld share our 宇宙with each other then will have a bigger 宇宙…something like that. 最後got flying kisses somemore.. really special services… n his 告白to his dear fans… Aishitemasu! Melted >_<
Chance comes knocking> the higher higher part
1st night> he went to play the drums. But kept changing his beats cos maybe no ling gan. Too much ぼけ during that night liao. 2nd night> full of ideas on what to play during his solo drum session thus this part was abit longer
3rd night> apart from the brass section, he practically tried all the instruments this time round. Most cannot make it part was e electric piano cos he cant think of what to play to accompany shoko’s (drummer) rhythm. But on the whole, the message was clearly conveyed>Keri is 天才!especially in improvising but all e times too over liao lol! He happy happy enjoying himself while everyone staring at him with dots. (so bad…….)well, who ask him so kawaii, so whatever rubbish he does we also wun blame him de… sweats
Encore> Sora ga naku kara was his encore song. Featuring steve playing with all kinds of funny funny ‘instruments…’ >water, metal, and some construction sites working tools (sorry duno what are they called lah). Btw, I didn’t even caught any glance of Steve on the first night cos I was standing right at the side of the stage whereby 1/4 of the stage view was totally blocked. Could only smell the carbon monoxide (gosh I don’t think this is the correct gas I am stating) during one of the songs… (which indicated the appearance of Steve… sweats!) Anyway I really love this song as he really sang till as if the sky really want cry liao lol.
I love the ending OST song too. (sounds like some final fantasy ost) His All Last didn’t have extra encore but he lengthened the chance comes knocking session.
総合comments> Saw an almost complete different side of 堂本剛. Or rather> the real Him. Everything was nicely planned n great efforts put in by the whole crew. Was very sabishii when the concert ended cos it was really too addictive. To iu wake de, that’s about it bah for the 3 sendai shows… Pardon me for writing so little as this took place more than a month ago. N thanks so much for tahan ing my singlish ne. Wanted to type everything in nihongo but scared ajo u all don’t understand so resort to singlish loh. Sore ja, please tanoshimi the next one bah.
