So I first saw Chiteijin last July in Koriyama when I went to see Silaph for the Mirai Oto compilation relwsse. They were VERY VERY impressive back then, best of the lot (silaph doesn’t count), and I had wanted to get their CD but didn’t get to coz.... NO ONE was at their merch table... bleh.
Anyway, been wanting to check them out again.
They’re a very very intense band, their guitarist (in the middle) REAAAAALLLY shreds it on the guitar!!!, and their other guitarist and vocalists is slightly unhinged, and all around, I think they’re a quiet and misfit band- just the way I like my bands I guess =P , outcasts and intense.
Anyway, show was really good today! And I FINALLY got their CD.
Will definitely check them out again when they come to Tokyo next month.
Well, yesterday was Art-School's live at Saitama's Heaven's Rock. It's the last live I had planned to go and also the last time going to live of a band I like very much....
Also, I realized today that today's live was at the same livehouse as the first time I saw Tsubaki and Lunkhead live 2 years ago!!! What a great nostalgic and befitting end!!!!
So I was thinking I must go for as many lives as I can while i am here... BUT IT SUCKS COZ THIS IS THE WORST TIME TO BE HERE COZ ALL THE BANDS ARE NOT TOURING!!! In fact ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLl the bands practically START touring on the very day I am going to leave Japan!!! 10/10!!! WHAT THE HELL!!!
And not to mention, I AM GOING TO MISS LUNKHEAD LIVE ON 10/1o by just SIX HOURS!!! Because i LEFT Malaysia on September 10th, my ticket expires also on October 10th!! IT'S TOTALLY SHITE!!!!
AND, I'm quite upset that almost ALLL the bands I want to see arent touring at this time and they'll only be touring middle of this month!!!!
But anyways, at least I got to see a few shows this time.
I went for:
9/11 - Kyoto Mojo - Tsubaki One Man Live 9/23 - Shibuya Yaneura - アナ/Tsubaki 9/24 - Shimokitazawa Club Que - Lost in Time/ セカイイチ 9/26 - Shindaita Fever - アナ 9/28 - Shibuya Club Quattro - Tsubaki 9/29 - Saitama Heaven's Rock - Art-School
Those were the shows I had planned to go..... (except Ana and Sekaiichi..... I think those came up last minute also hahaha)...
Before I go back, I wanna go for:
10/3 - Zher the Zoo Yoyogi - Prof. Moriarty&Smiley-Todd (I just discovered this band when I was randomly checking out Kyoto indies band in a shop in Kyoto) 10/5 - Shibuya O-West - Under The Counter 10/6 - Shimokitazawa Club Que - Monokuro 10/9 - Shimokitazawa Club Que - D.W. ニコルズ (I REALLY REALLY wanna check them out!)
As you can see, they are totally RANDOM bands.... ahahahah... Some bands I had just casually checked out....
Actually on 10/2 there are 2 REALLY cool shows... For Hare-Brained-Unity.... and also Art-School again... But Aki-san has a party for me on 10/2, so I can't go :( But it's okay, coz I get to meet people at the party and have fun too :)
Shimokitazawa Club Que is having a special anniversary live events... So alot of cool bands are playing there everyday... But I'd really like to check out other Shimokitazawa live houses like Garage or Shelter...... But I don't know the bands that are playing there.... Also, Shibuya has alot of small livehouse too... But I don't know which ones they are and I don't know the bands that are playing at all..
There are sooooooo many other bands I wish to see but I miss them by just a week!!!! T_T
I TOOOOOOOTTAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLY want to see
PEOPLE IN THE BOX (I REALLY LIKE THEM YO!! And I just found out....... I missed their live in Osaka by ONE BLOODY DAY!!! WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
And I also want to see:
hare-brained-unity メレンゲ 髭(HiGE) Base Ball Bear Radwimps
AND A WHOLE LOT MORE!!!!
BUT WHATEVER IT IS... I MISS LUNKHEAD LIVE AND THAT'S THE WORST TRAGEDY!!!!!! I waited TWO YEARS only to miss it by SIX HOURS!!!!!!! T______T
Sigh, I really feel like crying ok!!! :'(
Anyway, I will blog more about the live I had gone to later....
But before that, jus something about yesterday's Art-School live................... Riki Kinoshita is DAMNNNNNNNNNN quiet person!!!! SERIOUSLY.... The band practically played 10 songs before he FINALLY said "Konbanwa, Art-School desu." and that was it!!! He was like "Ahh...Ahhh" and totally didn't know what to say!! He even said "What should I say?" (in Japanese, of course)... Dang!!! He's damn quiet!!! lols~ but he's also DAMNNNNN cool!
By the way, this is my friend Aki.... He writes for biking, outdoor and travel magazines and models for those clothing companies too...
アナ (Ana) is an amazing band live! I only got to know them 3 days ago when i went to see Tsubaki but they were amazing live!!
When I saw them on Wednesday, their live reminded me of the The Format's show in New York which I went with Michelle 5 years ago.... Except..... format was headlining that night! ahaha...
Anyways, I got Ana's CD and actually, their songs are actually quite electronic (of course) and mellow.... But during live, their songs just transforms and they inject a radiating energy into the songs in their live performance! Really different! Awesome!
Actually, when Ana first got on stage and put up such an entertaining set, they reminded me alot of Days Away and Ana has also been around for 11 years...
It's like, although not many people know them, I really admire them for persisting in their dreams for such a long time despite everything...
And how I admired Days Away because even though they were playing only a 5 song set to a bunch of people who didn't know them, they always cared about perfection of their sound and music...
Same goes with Ana, I really admire how they really put on an amazing show despite it being a short set and not many people know them... I also admire how they are so much at ease on stage and take it up like it was their world (it IS their world!)... and Okubo-san and Ouchi-san really engage the crowd amazingly well, even though the crowd barely knows them or when the crowd is quiet...
On Saturday's show, there were less people there and I think compared to Wednesday's crowd, they were less enthusiastic, perhaps.... Before Ana got on, I was wondering how they'd take up the show... If they were gonna be less engaging or less energetic than Wednesday's show...
But when they got on stage, they just did their thing and they just performed as they did on Wednesday...
A really good band live..! I wish I could go for their show again!!! It's incredibly enjoyable even though you don't know any of the songs! Seriously! hahahahah
Holycow! I just watched an awesome performance by an awesome band (アナ)!!
You know bands like these just never fails to impress me coz no matter how small the show, how little the crowd, they just give thier best into the show and I just find that simply amazing..
I mean no matter the odds and unknown ahead, they just keep on pursuing this dream you know.. And I just find that amazing...
What a well put together show indeed! And I don't think any one in the crowd even came because of them but still... Well done!
YES ISSHIKI-SAN!!! YOU MAY PASS THAT OVER TO ME TOO~~~!! PLEASE! ^____^
Lunkhead special limited edition New Single CD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Today was Mikan Matsuri Day 4.... TSUBAKI and LUNKHEAD!
Blood hell........ how depressing we're all missing it!
「またライブで会おう。」.... yeah.... Isshiki-san.... I really wish this was possible ='(.... it's really not as simple as such words when one lives 6000 miles way from that "ライブ"...... Oh well.... 「一色さん、いつかまたライブであいましょう。。。。。」
So... I guess this is as close as I'll get to "seeing" and "hearing" Lunkhead live this year........ Radio show..............
I RSS Lunkhead's blog on my google reader and erm... check it.... almost every fifteen minutes (if I'm in front of the comp)..... So came back from tuition today at 6.... And went to check google reader for updates from Tsubaki or Lunkhead.... ODK-san posted something, so went to check it and it turned out to be a live online radio show~~! Starts at 6:45pm Japan time... that'd make it 5:45 Malaysian time~~~
So~~ I got to "watch" and "listen" to the last 15 minutes of the program~~ It was a radio program of Odaka-san and Yamashita-san with Waikiki Records. I'm sad I missed the first 15 tho... But I guess it doesn't matter, since I can't understand anything anyway! wth.... That's so pathetic.....
I think they were talking alot about live..... And talked about the upcoming live shows in december as well as the tour in Spring.
Oh, and Odaka-san mentioned Isshiki-san too..... I didn't quite understand what they were talking about.... But it was something about Odaka-san and Isshiki-san... <3 I think it's about them being really popular and sought after in live by the ahem.... fans.... hmmm lol!
Anyway~ with the handy media ripper, I managed to rip the live stream of the show~~ well, the last 15 minutes of the show i managed to catch anyway~~
I've uploaded it on mediafire if there's anyone who's interested in listening to it~ ^__^
I wanted to capture one of Odaka-san smiling..... Yoshitaro has such a cute and nice smile ^____^ And I got the cap~~!
Dunno what they were doing here after the show ended.... (there was no audio, guruguru (from Lunkhead's Fuka album) was playing. They were just standing and chatting before they left)
Was really sad to watch ODK-san and Yamashita san walk off screen..... It's like that sinking feeling when the show ends, and the bands walks off the stage..... THAT has to be the worst feeling ever.
Was quite sad to hear Odaka-san live and somewhat seeing the images live too (no thanks to streamyx, there was alot of delay and buffer) but not actually being there, like a live =(
wth... what's the point if it's gonna sell out in like.... two minutes?!
Reminds me of that time when Blink-182 dollar tour went on sale. Ticketmaster crashed coz of the sudden rise in traffic to the site to get the tickets... And yes, the tickets practically sold out in 2 minutes... wth...
Well, like Ame said.... there's always the Spring tour.....
oh and there's also Mikan Matsuri again on the 20th of March... I guess this Mikan Matsuri thing is somewhat like Ajikan's Nano-Mugen fest huh?! hehe...
But if I am gonna start the CELTA course in Jan, I won't be able to make it for the spring tour either...
Ame, you're right, why are we planning our life to Lunkhead live schedule??????
Anyway, Tsubaki posted a video of their recording session on myspace!
片道キップ - Katamichi Kippu!!!! WOW! would be incredible to hear Isshiki-san sing this!! 昨日の風 風向き 夢見る街 雨音 アセロラ ループ
I think they're all such damn danceable songs!!! The beats are just awesome! Makes you just wanna jump along ^____^
I don't even mind if it's like in a Live DVD..... I wanted to hear Fuyu no Hanashi live too, they had that song in the live DVD, so that's nice enough =) Can't ask for the impossible all the time, right?
They PROBABLY some of these songs in the Live I went, but unfortunately, I didn't know Tsubaki back then, so I didn't stay in hall for the whole show... =( ごめん. But I did get to talk to Yamashita-san and Ishikawa-san at that time, so! I guess, it pays off =D
sad... but highlight of the day is seeing Isshiki-san's picture on Lunkhead's blog....
And despite me checking BOTH Lunkhead and Tsubaki's website and blog daily, it wasn't till YESTERDAY that I realized that they were both on tour together. It was only when they both had the SAME TITLE of the SAME PLACE on their blogs that I realized "shit, they're playing the SAME live aren't they?"
Go figure...
Shit, I wish I could have gone for the live...... =(
Anyway, I realized... Well not just realized... but... I realize that I'm a really selfish person... That instead of being instantaneously happy for someone when something happy happens to them, I always feel jealous FIRST and FOREMOST, and fail to see what I have already been blessed with, instead of what I don't have. I guess, i really don't deserve to be happy.
Oh... and Yoshitaro posted a REALLY REALLY long post on the blog and a VERY reflective and INCREDIBLY philosophical post about................ existance! Hmmmm... Just too brilliant, I suppose, ne ODK-kun... =)
Lunkhead fans are the best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I've said before right? That the camaraderie of fans are just amazing! And today, again, was a perfect example of it!!!
Tsuyoshi has a friend, whom till today I didn't even know his name, who is a huge Lunkhead fan. When Tsuyoshi accompanied me to the Tower Records Lunkhead live last June, he met his friend there. His friend was incredibly shocked to see Tsuyoshi there because he told Tsuyoshi that Lunkhead is such an unknown band, so it was amazing that Tsuyoshi was even there... And then he was shocked that Tsuyoshi was there to accompany me! Hehehe.. So anyway, I also met him again in the December show because the Tsuyoshi actually had planned to go with his friend for the first December show..
ANYWAY... it's this friend Nagami-san whom I have been asking Tsuyoshi to help me to buy alot of the Lunkhead goods that are live specials...
ANYWAY.... so, I asked him to help me get the Lunkhead Photobook at Mikan Matsuri this year...... He got it for me, and TODAY I received the package...
BUTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT~~!!! I WAS SO SHOCKED!!! AND INCREDIBLY TOUCHED!!! He not only bought the Photobook for me, he also got me the cellphone strap that I was too shy to ask him to help me buy!!!! And he sent me LOADSSSSSS of other Lunkhead goods that i never asked for from previous live!!!!
(LOOK AT ALL THAT STUFF!!! WTH!!! It was like receiving a TOTALLY unexpected INCREDIBLE surprise gift!!!! I only expected or asked for ONE item and look at ALL the amazing wonderful goods i got instead!!! I'm so shocked and touched that I'm really speechless!!!!)
He sent me some Lunkhead fliers and some of those handout magazines with lunkhead article in it, he even sent me a Lunkhead PEN! And, he also sent me a Lunkhead bag!!! In addition, he even sent me the Lunkhead plastic bag that you get when you buy goods at the live... Not just one of the bag but two!!! Oh, and he also sent me a poster I've not even opened yet!!! Also, he included a Natsu no Nioi fan and he even sent me this special Lunkhead article that, I think, is a Chockyu special fan magazine!!!! And as if that was not enough, he even included a DVD of the Studio Coast live that he ripped himself!!!
Nagami-san's letter~~
I'm so incredibly touched by his kindness!!! I never expected it!!!!! Totally incredible that I don't have words to describe how wonderful I think his thoughtfulness and kindness are!!!
I mean, I'm really, really, really touched... It's like I never asked for it... but to me, I feel like he knew how much it would mean to me as a fan and he sent them!!
ALSO, I MUST thank TSUYOSHI too!!! Because it was him who always helped me with Lunkhead!!! And it was him who helped me ask his friend!!! Without Tsuyoshi, I would have never have experience so much happiness~~~~!!!! Thank you, Tsuyoshi~~~ You really put a smile on my face~~!! ^______^
ALL THAT SAID.... I also MUST MUST MUST MUST MUST thank ~~~~Ame~~~~!!!! I'm really sorry I have not posted about it yet because I was really busy at that time!! BUT HERE'S ANOTHER GREAT FAN!! Lunkhead fans are just amazing!!!!!!
Ame is incredible!!!! She was sooooooooooooo wonderful enough to be willing to help me buy soooooo many special Lunkhead goods when she went for the live!!!! SORRY I trouble you so much!!!!
She helped me buy the Studio Coast Limited Edition DVD!!!!!!!! Yoshitaro drew the illustration!!!! THANK YOU, AME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
She even helped me get a Lunkhead bag!!!!!!!! The bag is soooooooo cute!!!!
And also a T-Shirt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The T-Shirt is soooooooooo cute!!! I cannot imagine Odaka-san wearing it!!! hahaha!! So cute!!!! hahahaha
And lastly, she even included a nice button badge for me!!!
THANK YOU VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY MUCH AME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm really really touched by their kindness and their actions~~~!!!! I feel like, because of this band, because we love the same music and we like the same band, it's like..... we have a bond!! I really feel it...... And I really thank you, Ame, and I really thank you Nagami-san, for making all of us feel like we are all part of a big, big Lunkhead family!!!!!!!! Even though we come from different countries, even though we don't know each other for a long time~~ Thank you sooooo much for your wonderful kindness that reaches beyond~~ because of a band and because of their music~~!!
I really really really don't know what to say.... I am so touched by all these kindness and helpfulness that I just cannot believe it.... because it's so wonderful~~~! And it's BEYOND imagination, you know???? It's just so incredible.......
本当にありがとう！！！
This week has also been a GOODS week!!!
I got my package from Japan and I got つばき CDs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sorry i didn't buy new ones but at least I supported the band and bought the original CDs right???? I have all the songs already, but these are the majority of Tsubaki's CDs that I still don't have... They have ALOT of singles and albums... And I think right now, there are maybe 2 or 3 CDs that I don't yet have....
Oh and Incredible!!! The Hanabi single, although used copy, still had the Tsubaki limited edition sticker included in it!! hehehe...
Oh! And I also got the DVD a few weeks back too! hehehe...
THANK YOU EVERYONE!!!!!!!
And most of all, thank you, God, for ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS blessing me with such incredible friends that I don't deserve.... Thank you so much....
There is something to music, to bands, and to live/gigs/concerts/shows that unites. Whatever you call them, gigs in England, concerts in Malaysia, shows in America, Live in Japan, whatever name or label that is given to this participation in the cesspool of flesh and sweat bound together by the chords of the band playing on stage-- whatever its name-- the sensation, the feelings, the pull towards this-- is all and the same.
I don't know how to explain it to friends. Why, why, why I just can't just stop going for shows. Why just listening to songs on the radio ain't enough. Why, why, why, lately, I just keep having to go to Japan to see these bands.
How do you explain that when I listen to a song, I just don't hear the sound engineered mesh of chords and melodies. That when I listen to a song and it moves me, that all I can feel and imagine is how it would feel like, this imploding feeling in my heart being multiplied a hundred folds, pressed together with 1000 other people, the music bursting in my ears and the band, real, in front of me. How do you explain the feeling of being there in a mosh pit, with the music, with the people and with the band-- all meshed together bound and crushed together in one breath with one beat. How do you explain a feeling like that? How do you explain why, why, why, that one imagination, that one feeling, pulls me so intensely?
I can't explain it, except to say that....... I loved it, I loved it all. And it was in that breathlessness, with your heart bursting forth from within, feeling like you're dying, suffocating, afraid that you're gonna die, actually, fearing of being crushed, kicked or trampled to death, but still, feel so alive.
I'm glad that in my lifetime I've had the privilege to meet soulmates who feel this same draw and force and hear the same call of the mosh pit in our hearts. Who Understands. Who Knows.-- whether it is Robbie whom I met online at Punkrockvids on MIRC, or Luis, Michelle, Wendy, Melissa, Johanna in America, Fuji in Japan, or Ame in Hong Kong--- I want to believe that we're all soulmates...
That no matter where we are from, no matter which country, which language, which experience we were from, we stand together as one, under the banner of this music, of this band.
It was an immense feeling when I stood there in Lunkhead's moshpit, on that cloudy June summer day, on the rooftop of Tower Records Shinjuku, for their 5th Album release special live. There's something incredible to Japanese lives, simply because one has to witness it for oneself, the sight of a thousand hands all raised together, cheering on the same beat, as one whole unified wave of hands with the beats of a song. There is something fundamentally human to all that.
Standing there alone, feeling so foreign in this crowd, totally not understanding a single thing that was being said both on stage and around me or what is even being sung. But when we stood there together, looking at this band, and when we sang and danced and cheered together as one for this band, with this band, with them, with us-- I felt united-- united with all these strangers-- like with the intensity of our hearts we were bound together to each other and with this band through their music; we, foreigners, natives, fans, band alike, all became one big family.
And I still feel the same way when I meet fans of Lunkhead online, that we may come from Malaysia, America, Hong Kong or Japan, and sometimes, we couldn't even communicate properly--- but, with this one band, with the love for this same music, we smile, we smile because we understood this feelings that we shared in our hearts.
I think this video here is a good... summary... of that unity, of that singleness, when you're in a pit as fans united under the banner of one band together in one song. It's taken from Tsubaki's latest live video, and it's all of these crowd just clapping in TOTAL UNISON with the band, like was all just one clap... It's not a simple clap, you know, there's a beat to it, yet yet.... Just imagine how many times the fans have heard that one song to be able to clap like that! hahahaha...
I think that is the beauty of mosh pits. Not just the utter draw to the intensity of the feeling of being drowned with a sea of people and with the breathlessness of screaming to this music. That in this, in this empowering enveloping mesh of racing heartbeats, gasps of air, screaming at the top of your lungs, throwing yourself into the intensity of the moment there with these people and with the band your love with the songs that sang your heart-- there, there, is where we live. Is where we really feel alive.
And I am glad, I'm glad I've found such friends who share; actually, who understands, this feeling that I feel, that I miss so very much, in my heart.
I wish, I wish my friends here could understand these feelings. I wish they knew what the mosh pit meant to me. How if the feelings of a Taking Back Sunday mosh pit could be rolled into a pill, I would take some everyday!
I wish I could live my life in that pit. I wish that the vocation of my life could put in pits every day of every week, or at least, somewhere close to the calling lights of that crowd... That at this moment, listening to Tsubaki's Aimai na Yoru on my radio, I could just close my eyes, and imagine, how wonderful, how wonderful, what breath it would be to take, standing there with all these crazy Tsubaki fans in the pit, seeing, hearing Isshiki Noriyasu sing... And we look up and we smile, and we voice our hearts together with him with his words, and we reach out, and we cheer together, and we sing, and we smile.... I wish I could see him sing everyday... I wish I could see him sing right now.
I remember during that Lunkhead live on the rooftop that summer day, and the infamous Japan June rain threatening to reign down upon us with fury, the sky was overcast, cloudy and gray... getting darker and darker as we sang and united louder and louder... Yet, that reliable June rain never came. And I remember, when the show was over, Ishikawa Ryou, the drummer of Lunkhead, stood a final moment on stage and uttered these words that my Japanese 101 comprehension even understood, "Your power and our power combined has held the rain up."
And yes, it certainly felt that way that day. And yes, I believe that too... that in that moment when we are all locked up in an arena, club or live house together, as our collective breath gathered and accumulated, there was that power: your power, my power, our power combined.
And it is this that sits in our hearts, that pulls us, that calls us-- as we long and wait for the moment to be there in the next pit.

It's really crap to be stuck in Malaysia right now.... There are like thirty billion EXCITING stuff happening with Lunkhead in JAPAN.!
WTH.....
So they are having like LOADSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS of special lives.... WTF... Studio Coast Mikan Masturi Live (yesterday), Mikan Matsuri Niihama (albiet it's in Niihama but it's in NIIHAMA yooooo!!! HOMETOWN festival dude!!!! ANDDD you can even win a bandmember as prize!! wth!!), Special Lunkhead 2008 Tour Thank You show......................... BLAH!!!!!!!!!!
sigh... it's so sad to be a Lunkhead fan in Malaysia........................... away from Everything... Blahhhh feel like shooting myself in the gut...................... BLAH..!!!
I feel so sad..... Because, coz.... anyone who's a Lunkhead fan should be part of these historical "family" events........................ and I'm missing it............. So it's like................. I'm not considered a fan..... =( Coz i'm not there with everyone who is a fan........ =(
SUPER SAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
maybe I should have waited to go to Japan this year.................
I really, really, really love LUNKHEAD. I suppose if you're here reading this, you should already know. But I do, I do love them ALOT. I know I shouldn't but I DO. I know you might all think I like LUNKHEAD because of Mr. Odaka Yoshitaro. But really, it's NOT. I'm compelled to write this suddenly is because Boku to Ki is playing on the radio and the music is just so amazing. Sometimes, I'm so bored listening to the same 60 Lunkhead songs every day. But then, comes little moments like these when suddenly a song plays and I am captured once again.
I know I should wake up. I know it's not healthy to love them too much.
But I just want to say that I do like them. Or at least, at the very core of it, it's their music that captures me more than anything else. Yoshitaro aside, dreams aside, memories aside, wishes and desires aside, concerts aside- Lunkhead is an AMAZING band for creating such AMAZING songs. Maybe not to you, or not to others, but it is to me, at the very least.
----------------
I am quite sad that I don't think I'll be able to see Lunkhead again in April. I don't think it's a trip I can make, or I should even make! And I'm scared and sad because I don't know the future and I don't know if I'll even see them ever again live. But... I really want to believe... I really want to believe in those words that Yoshitaro said that night during the last live, "終わりじゃなくって、始まり。". Owarijanakutte, hajimari. This is not the end, it's the beginning.
I want to believe that, Yoshitaro, I want to believe. I want to believe that I will see you all again. That I could be there again... I know I shouldn't want that. But I want to hold on to the thought that I would be able to be there again, in your mosh pit, with your fans, singing together as one....
Damn... it's so obessive. But.... still..... I wish......
waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa too bad they ain't my honey...... ='(
But NEWAYS!!!! this is ACTUALLY the pic they took like probably during or right after their LIVE show on the Sunday 9th December 2007 show!!! YESS!!! THIS IS EXACTLY THE LUNKHEAD I SAW THAT DAY!! AND YESS!!! THIS IS THE YOSHITARO WHOM I GOT TO HUG!!!!!!!!!!
MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
yeah he look sweaty but SEXYYYYYYYYYYYY~~~~~~~~~~~~~!!! muahhhhhhh!!!!!
haihhh i love them la... shitz............... >___<
This one's for those who comes here hehe. Thanks cm, thanks jingle ;)
i have nothing to blog about but to blog.... I have Lunkhead to mention though...... (as always)....
I really REALLY REALLY wish i could be there....... =(
It's the show for the Best Album release..... Slow Night is Ryo's band... or a band/DJ group he manages....... *sigh* Tsuyoshi's hard-core Lunkhead fan friend mentioned that for that show, Lunkhead and a couple of other bands will play... and you know, by the looks of it, it really looks like a really nice MUST-GO party for fans~ *sigh* Like a family gathering, you know?????? Damn, but i can't be part of that family this time =( so sad~ ='((
I really wish i can go for the shows this spring... Because it's the tour for the Best Album... and that's why there WILL BE OLD SONGS.... *sigh*
Then again, I did get to see Tsuki to Tenohira live already, plus Hakudaku, Indigo, Purukurima, Haisora..... So there's not really many songs left I really really hear live except KOMOREBI and also Hitorigoto.... *sigh*
But i really wish i could go =(
I guess for me Lunkhead shows is about that: being part of the Lunkhead family. Together with all the fans, being together with the band, singing together in one voice these songs that unites us in this one experience... :(
I want to be part of the whole big family of Lunkhead and fans again~ It's such a great feeling to be with all of the fans together with the band...... But alas.... I am a foreigner and not part of that family true, as much as i wish I was, as much as i wish i could ='(
