OMEGA [commentary o' flails]

[colberry]

When I looked back at what I wrote…  I really wanted to edit it. 
I wanted to form coherent sentences and take out all the capslock. 
But then I stopped myself and let it be - because this is who I truly am beneath all the fluffy metaphors and poetic little allusions:  an incoherent, synonym-abusing fangirl XD 
Plus, it’s quite entertaining to see

Oh my god, Tessa. Tessa. You make want to watch OMEGA again. Even though I've watched it five times already, but WHATEVER.

I laughed so hard reading your commentary, and all of the details that you picked up--You really have a sharp eye for these things (and I can see how it translates into your writing). :3 Not to mention those bits and piece of poetry (Everything bathed in red … it’s like a dirty promise :D).

More than a few points I absolutely agree with!

It goes perfectly with his "fists have kissed my eyes" makeup. Ahh seriously, Ruki's eye makeup makes him look like he has two black eyes. I wonder who decided to do that. :P

How unfair! Here I was writing my epic-length essay on Omega, and then I stumble on this already existing piece of awesome text that says most of the things I was going to say, except in a gazillion times more exciting way than what I'm capable of... :o

Well, I'd like going to comment on a few things since I'm here, hope you don't mind!

No over-concentration on the audience.

I sorta disagree on this, because I personally love to see fans and their reactions in concerts - it just makes the whole thing feel like a live! A communal experience, if you will. (But then again, I'm one of those pathetic people who actually likes laugh tracks in sitcoms, so... >.>)

Also, not sure if you mentioned this, but the lighting was awfully dark for most of the main part of the concert, which made the atmosphere almost claustrophobic and in addition to not really seeing the audience, you also didn't see the guys either all that well! Might be that actually made them loosen up and perform so well this time, though. Shy boys :)

I love when Ruki uses

I don't mind at all! It's nice to have discussions with fellow-articulate fans :D I'm glad my total flail-spazz didn't turn you off at all, haha.

Oh, I agree! I love seeing snippets of the audience - it makes everything feel much more real and in-the-moment. However, I'm also "there" to see them perform as well, so I thought this live recording had a better balance between the two shots :D

Ah, I really didn't even notice the darkish lighting until you mentioned it (I was too blinded by my excitement, haha). That's true though and I bet it had a little to do with their penchant that night for candidness ;)

it's sometimes easier to have a badass attitude than to really put your technical, "formal" competence out there, to be judged by peers and professionals. Oh, I agree so, so much with you. I always knew Ruki was capable of that level of singing - merely because every now and then

Oh, sorry, I meant to reply to the original post! I'm still getting used to LJ >.

I have a question? does the jump and speech are on the dvd?

[colberry]

Nope ;A;
I think I read on a few live reports that there wasn't even a jump.. but if there was, they didn't show it. They pretty much cut everything to black after LINDA.
