eggchanAlright, here goes..
My first con report ever :O (I guess my Hollywood Bowl post was kind of a con report?)
![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
reburta. We found each other fairly easy as the JR Kasadera station is really small. Anyway, there were lots of dressed up/made up girls for the concert. I don't understand how they can walk around in high heels and such all day lol..
Anyway, we met up, and started walking towards the venue. There was a line that said something about "Pictures" and "Goods", so we got in that line. At the time we were so early that they hadn't opened up any of the sales places, but we stood in line and the staff would come up and down and say things. I understood like 50% of what they were saying because they were talking so fast.. lol but from what they were saying, I was getting worried that we were in the wrong line. In the end, I decided to go ask a staff guy (who, by the way, they were all wearing suits lol). He told me that the line we were in were to get photos (like the Johnny's shop photos), and there was a 2nd line to get goods. lol.. I'm glad I asked.. so, we went over to the goods line, stood there for about 10 minutes, and they finally opened up for business.
It only took about 10 more minutes to get through the line. It went fairly fast. I ended up getting a t-shirt (3,000 yen), a bad (1,200 yen), and a poster (500 yen). I really like the t-shirt. Once we got through there, there was a big poster with DBSK and girls taking pictures of the poster.. haha. At that time, we then got into the line for our section. And we waited..... and waited.... and waited.. I think the wait was 2 hours. ^_^;; Anyway, they finally opened the doors and we filed in REALLY slowly. Once in, they checked our bags, and then we got into ANOTHER line.
That line filed in, and we walked around the whole stadium (which might I say is.. REALLY small.. no wonder it was impossible to find "affordable" tickets to this thing). Then we got to our spots. Which, were as the ticket said, stand and watch. We basically got a railing, and that was about it. (Although in the end, all the girls with seats were standing during the whole concert anyway lol)
From there, I really had to use the bathroom.. and I wasn't about to hold it for like 3 hours, so I ran to the bathroom. Once I got back, some obaa-san lady had taken my spot... >_>; but it was okay because I could still see.
Eventually... it started :)
They started out with some really energetic songs, and then went into quite a few ballads. I think the first song they did was Secret Game. It was pretty awesome live, I must say. A lot of the songs that they sang were remixes (I think specially made for the concert), and I must say that I really liked most if not all of them.
Anyway, they came out and sang for probably 20 minutes, and then did a mini group intro.. but who needs to be introduced to DBSK, I mean.. :) we all know who you are haha. But when Micky's turn was up, he said "Konbanwa, Micky desu!" and the girls screamed (like for each of the members) and he was like, "Chotto matte, chiisasugi! Mou ikkai! MICKY DESU!" and then the girls screamed louder haha.
During Beautiful You, there was also a lull in the song where the music quieted and Junsu just belted out in ballad. I seriously got chills T___T
They sang some more songs, and then took a quick "break" (clothes change). During the break, they showed a video of the boys with "special powers"... like.. DBZ powers. ^^;; I think Jaejoong was first and had like... some purple energy, and the rest had other miscellaneous colored powers emanating from their hands. Yunho had... a blue sword. It was really quite.. gay LOL.. and I heard a lot of laughter when he busted it out lol. Anyway, with their special powers, they then came out and sang Force, which might I add I love that song :x And the performance was actually quite memorable. They had a stage that was elevated that they were on, doing their dancing and singing.. the stage then moved forward to the middle of the arena (kind of Arashi-esque?). Anyway, for some reason that song and especially the performance was really memorable for me.
Purple Line was also sang, which made me really happy. Although I'm much more accustomed to the Korean version, so it was hard to sing along lol. Either way, Micky's "Now I see this way, it looks like Purple Line. Hey, gotta introduce mahself" was like.. SUPER RASPY and loud. He over did it. Also the "I really want to touch myself" part, he over did. LOL.. aside from all the "raspy" parts he usually has in songs, Micky sounded really good, but over did almost all of his "raspy" parts.
The ment was pretty funny.. talking a lot about food.. and Yunho pointed out Junsu's good points. Charisma, etc, etc,.. and his butt LOL. And, while I'm still honestly not so sure about this, but I'm pretty sure they tried to get Changmin to talk about porn, cuz.. he kept apologizing for talking about such an embarrassing topic, and mumbling about "how did the conversation turn into that?" etc. Also the girls were squealing haha.. Micky made silly faces at the camera.. waggling his eyebrows and smiling like a pedophile?? LOL.. I dunno, honestly. The whole ment was pretty hilarious, I must say. Jae also pulled his hair back and gave a "sultry" look at the camera, while fangirls screamed.
After that, they sang some more songs, and then came another "break" (aka wardrobe change), where they played a video of the boys getting "broken up with" by their significant others. lol.. it was pretty cheesy, I must say. Changmin just didn't care, and Junsu looked silly. XD Anyway, I can forget that part haha..
When they re-entered, they sang Begin with Micky on the piano and the others around him. They were on the small stage that moved, so as they sang it slowly moved forward. It was really REALLY amazing. Changmin went flat a few times, but it was a really amazing song live. When they got to the end, there was a 5 second pause before Jaejoong sang his final "Begin.." .. the whole arena was silent. Completely silent. You could hear Jae take a breath even though the mic wasn't that close to his face.. it was beautiful.
They also had a treadmill like in the T tour, which made me pretty happy. There was some Yoosu love on the treadmill, where Junsu was walking on the treadmill and then Micky walked past him and they hugged/walked/tried to stay balanced as it was moving. XD
They also did some cane dances during one of the songs.. Nobody Knows I think? It was pretty awesome. :D But a lot of their dances were with the mic stands.
During Box in the Ship they did a short break with the music playing in the background and got the audience to go "Oh eh oh eh oh! -- etc" and chant different things to the beat of the song. Each member said something different. Yunho's was "Oh eh oh eh oh! Tohoshinki!" etc etc. I don't remember what the rest of them were T_T But it went on for a long time haha, and what I remember is Changmin's sucked and everyone picked on him for it lol
THEY THEN SANG O. AND IT MADE ME SO HAPPY OMG. DDD: That song live was seriously awesome.
During Somebody to Love the audience always waves their hands in the air to the beat. It was fun haha.. they were all jumping like crazy on stage and yelling "JUMP JUMP JUMP". I saw Micky jumping like crazy and then he stopped and looked at one of the backup dancers next to him, smirked, and then slumped over looking really exhausted. Poor boy XD Also during the "Na, na, na, na.... SOMEBODY TO LOVE~" etc part (I really don't know how to explain it -_-) the song slowed down super slow, and each member was in a different part of the stage (Junsu was nearest to me T_T), and each member would go "Na", "Na", "na", and Micky was in the center part of the stage. When it finally got to Micky, the stage lights lit up on him and he screamed "NAGOYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA" and streamers shot out into the audience. Ahhh fun.
Also during Summer Dream Yunho (I thought it was Changmin [i thought at first it was Yunho, but then thought maybe it was Changmin instead], but from other reports I guess it was Yunho?) forgot his lines. haha.. he started singing, then mumbling, then yelled out really loud, "WASURETA!" It was really funny. I think it was during this song, but I don't quite remember... there was also a part where the song slowed a little, and then Jaejoong screamed, and some pyrotechnics came out.. and they scared the BEJESUS OUT OF ME. I seriously screamed really loud ^_^;; they were loud.
They then exited the stage.. and everyone began to chant "Tohoshinki!" and waving their light sticks. It's like a fake ending, and everyone knows they're gonna come out again lol.. like what Arashi does where you know you're guaranteed at least 1 encore so I dunno if I can categorize it as an encore anymore haha, except Arashi does it like 2 or 3 (sometimes 4) times haha.
Anyway, the lights dimmed again and on came another video. This one showcased a lot of thier old songs, starting from their first Japanese single. Everyone would sing along to the song.. when they got to "The Way U Are", DBSK came out again and sang that song :)
Sang a few more songs, then did ANOTHER ment where they talked about food AGAIN, and Micky made more silly faces for the camera XDD etc etc they then said they wanted to sing the new song and tried to get Changmin to introduce it. For some reason he sucked REALLY hardcore at introducing it, so he ended up talking forever about what the song meant etc, and finally the rest of the members were like "OMG CAN WE SING THE SONG ALREADY?" lol
Well they sang it, and it was really quite beautiful. They said they wanted to sing it while sitting down, so the staff came up with chairs and the rest of the audience sat (.... except for us... cuz we didn't have chairs LOL). Anyway the song was great and they ended up standing back up halfway through the song XD
A few more songs, and they then said their thank yous, goodbyes, etc, and then sang one more song, Bolero.. Ahhh *hearts*
And they exited the stage, all dramatic-like. They stood in a line, and the lights went down low, and then suddenly the lights came up again and *gasp* they were GONE. haha, except from my angle I could see them fall into the stage :)

Afterward, we all filed out and as we walked out the staff gave us little cards that said that you could go online with your cell phone and get a Thank You message from DBSK, but.. alas, I can't do that lol oh well. The giant crowd of us walked to the station. I was hoping that everyone would be going back into Nagoya (I'm in the opposite direction), so the train wouldn't be so packed. I was right!! The train to Nagoya was so full, from the other side of the station I watched as people were shoved into the train so that the doors could shut. People were pressed up against the glass, like in cartoons XDD where they get smashed against a window or a piece of glass. It was pretty funny, and I am so glad I wasn't on that train. XD
The ride home was alright. At first there were no seats, so I stood and almost fell asleep ala salary man style, holding onto the hand rails...rings, whatever they're called. By the end of the night, I was so tired and hungry, when I got home I made my leftovers and pretty much passed out. XD
But wow. 3 1/2 hours of DBSK.. my first concert.. and in Japan.. first time on the train. It's definitely something I will never forget.
But I really wish it wasn't prohibited to take pictures at things like this -_-
But in the end... seeing DBSK again was quite the experience, and I truly feel so lucky that I was able to go.
