I was lucky enough to recieve my copy a few days early– and for those of you who haven’t ordered yours yet, it’s definitely a must buy.
The vocal quality in this concert was absolutely amazing; the boys barely gave in to their tiredness and when they did, they still sounded pretty good. Performances like POWER OF EARTH, Highway, Owarinaide and Kimi+Boku=LOVE were really energectic and fun to sing along with~ But then, since it’s tegomass, there was also the tear jerking performances like Hanamuke and Kataomoi no Chiisana Koi.
Special mention to Ame Nochi Hare; that performance was BEYOND adorable. The swings were a really cute touch, too.
&Massu, I’ve never known someone to fail more awesomely in my life. Never stop being you!
Sakurai Sho, Keio boy, Captain Failboat himself, is confirmed to be featured nude in the next issue of AnAn magazine. Previous Johnny’s have been Akanishi Jin, Yamashita Tomohisa, Matsumoto Jun, and Kimura Takuya, amongst others. I’m DAMN excited.
To quote myself on the Arashi Forum, “NUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUDE AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA”.
Of all the people I would have thought would transfer into the Johnny’s fandom, Maize was probably the last I’d expect. After spending 8 years in the Hello! Project fandom, she has finally decided to step into the world of Johnny’s, of course, starting with Arashi. It’s always nice to see that new fans are being created, and I’m sure Maize’s blog will be a fantastic read as she indulges herself into this amazing new fandom. Please check it out!
“A popular guy like Murakami has all the women he could ever want approaching him”
Why did this make me laugh?
Anyways. Thanks to Uwasako, we’re brought the unfortunate news that Toda Erika and Murakami Shingo are no more. However I will not believe this for a second. I demand picture proof…of them not holding hands, or something.
It sucks but I guess it’s good for his (imaginary?) fangirls and her fanboys.
This is interesting. You have to wonder how these rankings/lists are done… Who has the time to sit and wonder to themselves “Which of our celebrities are the most masochistic?” Well, apparently the people in Japan do!! And good thing. Because they come up with lists like this. Keeps me entertained for hours.
2009 has been an interesting year, to say the least. Lots of unexpected things happened, like NYC Boys, Tegomass’ first concert tour, Jin and Yamapi making solo debuts, Kanjani’s 3 consecutive singles, Arashi breaking a million and officially taking over Japan.
We’ve prepared lots of categories for you to give answers to, and now you don’t have to answer every one of them but it would be nice if you did. Remember, this isn’t a poll, so you can choose as many answers as you like for each question, and we’d love to hear your reasoning for why you chose each thing. Obviously, each category relates to releases in 2009, not any year previous to that.
You can put your answers into the comments section in this post, but it would be awesome if you posted them to your own blog/journal and then left us a link so we know where to find you!
YES YES YES! Tegomasu’s first (and hopefully not only) concert tour is finally on DVD! Sadly the preorder on CDJapan is sold out for the limited but I’m sure you’ll be able to get your hands on a copy from another site.
The setlist looks amazing! I’m really excited for this release. Anyone who knows me will know that Tegomass is by far my favorite in JE–and even the entire Japanese idol world. I know for a fact I will not be disappointed in this!
YAY. This is really exciting news!A full mini album release around the time of the movie’s release, this will probably sell amazingly. The album is called Olympus and will feature 8 tracks including the recent single BANDAGE.
ikujinashi@livejournal has a complete tracklisting for the album:
LANDS’ first and last album! From the movie “BANDAGE” (opens in theatres 16th of January 2010) in which Akanishi Jin stars, here’s an album with 8 songs. In addition to the 6 songs Takasugi Natsu (Akanishi Jin) sings in the movie, Kobayashi Takeshi has written two songs just for this album, so there are eight songs!
