JUKEBOX concert report
Shows I attended:
Tokyo: Nov 9, 10
Osaka: Jan 17-19
The seats were ok in general. I got the arena seat for the very first time for the first Tokyo show ♥
Opening VTR: A mouse got chased by a cat. It bit on the wire connecting to a jukebox. The jukebox came alive. Showed each member. The jukebox was on. Eito appeared as a band.
Brulee
Played as a band. It felt different because they weren't dancing. And the song fit more with the dance than when performed as a band.
Yuuyami Train
They stayed at the front stage.
Ryo and Yasu touched their foreheads together in the 17th show and the last show.
Uchuu ni Itta Lion
The platform they were standing on moved to the center stage.
LIFE ~Me no Mae no Mukou e~
They played at the center stage. I love this song and I was happy they still perform it ♥
Opening greetings
I don't remember much in the Tokyo shows.
Subaru
Ryo: He sang the tonight tonight song in almost all the shows. In the first Osaka show, he sang Dream Come True's Osaka Lover.
Yoko
Maru: In the 18th first show, he did the "tereru" thing with the audience, the one that the students taught him in the TV show. He was like, "Please do it if you know. If you don't know...please look at others" XD
Yasu: In the 18th first show, he did some counting song that the students taught him in the TV show. I like the last phrase, "Maru and maru becomes mugendai."
Ookura: In the 18th first show, he tripped over his drum set, lol. He was like, "Itai! Itai!" Lol.
Hina: In the Tokyo shows, he made children called out. In the Osaka shows, he made parents called out as well. During the last three Osaka shows, he made the staffs shout out, as per Ryo's request. That was nice. Of course, he made the male audience shout out.
Lastly, he said, "Let's become idiots together!!" Yasu and Ookura made weird idiot faces, together lol. In the last two Osaka shows, he danced and made a face like an idiot while facing Ookura, lol.
Dear Summer-sama!!
Ookura and Yasu were lovey-dovey when they sang their lines, lol.
They went to the back stage. When the song ended, they bow. Hina and Ookura bowed to each other.
Aoppana
They danced on the back stage.
T.W.L
They got on the cart and went to the front stage.
In the 18th first show, Hina waved his towel like a whip. He threatened to attack Yasu. In the second show, Yasu ran away from Hina XD And Maru stuck his butt out for him to whip XD Then, in the last show, Yasu ran away again but Maru walked over to Hina and stuck his butt out XD
TAKOYAKI in my heart
Hina's line: When he sang the "wa" at the end of his line, Maru mouthed, "Wa," along with him and made a weird face XD
Yasu's line: He sang, "Yasuda Kei," at the end. (Former Morning Musume member.)
Subaru's line: The censored thing on the mic changed pictures in different shows. Sky tree, "R rated idol," Taiyou no Tou, Tsuutenkaku (both shows), and then a kushikatsu.
Maru said different one-line gags in different shows. In the 18th, first show, he made a super funny gag using a box of tissues. Yoko laughed so hard that he wasn't able to sing the first few of his solo lines XD
VTR: Takoyaki bouncing, became a hat. Ookura took a white ball out of the hat and threw it. The ball turned to the Eito logo. The logo became Yoko's mouth. Maru picked up the ball from the floor. He threw it and Yasu caught it. Yasu winked with sparkles XD The ball turned into a guitar. Subaru played the guitar. The sound waves created a huge wind, blowing passed everyone. A big folded paper fan was formed. It went passed Yasu and hit Ryo. Hina appeared holding the fan as it looked it he was the one hitting people. He looked cool though. Yasu and Ryo got mad, lol. Hina hit the fan really hard on the ground. A pair said, "Love," in autotone. I only remembered Yasu and Maru appeared second XD Finally, Ryo, the last one, said, "Love."
"Love."
The words flashed on the screen.
"Sorry Sorry Love"
Sorry Sorry love
Danced on the front stage. Very cool dance.
Dye D?
Front stage. The explosion exploded at the same part again. This explosion is going to haunt me forever XD The song stopped right after the interlude, and Ookura ended the song by saying, "Dye D."
Water Drop
The platform moved to the center stage.
Namida no Kotae
They formed a straight line across the center stage.
Hibiki
Only performed in the Osaka shows. Performed at the center stage.
The lights were off except that the spotlight shown on the keyboardist of the live orchestra. Then, Yoko played the trumpet. He improved and started to get used to it. During the Tokyo show, he was like pausing every few seconds to wipe the sweat on his mouth with his waistband XD But in the Osaka shows, he was able to play without pausing.
Seishun Nostalgia
The platform moved from the center stage to the back stage. Yoko played the trumpet in some parts. Eito used the mic stand and they danced mostly using both arms. Yoko danced with the trumpet in hand. They stood in a circle facing the audience from their area. At the first Tokyo I went to, I was so close to the right side, and I kept staring at Ookura's arms XD;; Afterwards, my eyes kept going there every time, even when I was behind Ookura XD I really like the dance. I tried to learn it. By the last show, I got better but I can't do it without watching them..
Kurage
Yasu played the guitar with Yoko playing the trumpet. In the Tokyo shows, Yasu praised Yoko for playing the trumpet like a grandfather praising his grandson XD Other members were also proud of him, lol.
In the Osaka shows, at the last chorus, Maru did paaan with the audience in his area and whomever saw him. Anata ga.. *paaan*
At the last stanza, the spotlight shown on Yoko and Yasu. They played while standing back to back. Yasu's last line talked about looking up at the sky. So Yasu leaned his head back onto Yoko's back shoulder while singing his line and playing the guitar.
Kokoro Sora Moyou
They played as a band.
MC
Jan 17:
Eito created an Eito group on LINE. Subaru still refused to use LINE. Yoko sends him messages from LINE so that he doesn't feel left out.
Jan 18 #1:
- Subaru was like, "I got all fired up that I didn't wear a shirt," which was a joke, lol. He shouted that he's getting embarrassed and hurried a staff to bring him a shirt, lol.
- Ryo said that there was no water in his water bottle. Subaru was like, "The stage set is gorgeous, and there is no shirt and no water."
- There was a mark on Maru's body. He explained that he injured himself when he tried to open the wine bottle with the cork opener. Subaru laughed his head off. He can laugh every time he hears this story, lol.
- They were talking about Hakushon. Someone in the audience had an uchiwa of him. The staff passed the uchiwa to Eito. The back of the uchiwa said, "Takatsuki no Kimutaku" XD
- Ryo sucked at explaining his movie. He kept saying things until someone reminded him to say the title of the movie XD At the end, he told us to search on Google.
- Maru tried to explain his movie with Ashida Mana. He sucked as well. He failed at saying the word "human"so he ended up keeping shouting, "Hyuu~~~" in a high pitched voice, like he's doing a gag.
Jan 18 #2:
Not much to write for this show.
- Ookura thought it has been three months since their first show. He counted, "December, January..." Yea, calculation mistake, lol.
- Yoko said his relative named Be-san was here in the audience. Eito talked about him a lot in this MC.
Jan 19:
- First, Yoko said, "One question dake!" "One question" was in English XD He finally invited Eito to his house? He said he has two futons and a bed. He has two futons because he invites the kouhais to stay at his house. Eito tried to decide who gets the futon. One of them said they can switch every 3 hours XD
Yoko already decided on the order of who goes to shower first, lol. Ryo is first because he's the fastest. Hina is last because he'll clean up the bath afterwards, rofl.
Yoko was thinking about watching a DVD together. Eito discussed like they can watch dvd in one part and chat in some other part.
Yoko was even thinking what kind of conversation they'll be having XD
If anyone needs to go to the toilet, he'll have to tell Yoko first XD
- Eito discussed about performing different instruments as Yoko can play the trumpet now. Ryo can play the sax since he has experience.
Maru got the dips on playing the tuba XD
Beast
There was a PV. The company president yelled at them. They got angry afterwards and fought other people. I think the PV and the performance were nicely done. The three wore suits and glasses. Maru really looked hot with the fluffy hair and glasses >..< Yoko wore a girl's sailor school uniform with two braided pigtails on the sides. Subaru wore a cheerleading uniform carrying pompoms. Yasu wore a female school swimsuit -_- Ookura wore a China dress and had a blond wig. He looked pretty.. XD I really liked his cosplay.
Subaru shouted, "Fight," in a short, high pitched voice. So cute XD
In the 17th show, Ookura said, "Eighter, I love you." In the 18th second show, Ookura said something. But the camera was still focused on him. He was like, "Get the camera out~" It still won't move. Subaru said, "Go, fight," in a short, high pitched voice. Ookura started to say something and Yoko blew the horn XD
In the last show, they wore their original outfit and tried to be as manliest as they can be to try to get more votes, lol.
Anata e
Ryo, Hina, and Maru sang first at the front stage and the others joined later. I really liked Maru's voice..
Heso Magari
Front stage.
Zukkoke Otokomichi
They went to the back stage. In the last show, Maru did paaan when it was his turn for the solo line.
Musekinin Hero
They went back to the front stage. I noticed that Maru, Ryo, Ookura, and Yasu went off the stage in the last chorus.
Your WURLITZER
The four went off the stage to prepare for this performance. They played as a band. Then, Subaru appeared in the front and sang his part.
West side!!
Subaru shouted in the beginning like he did for Misetekure. Everyone came up. The band moved to the back stage.
Rescue Rescue
The band stayed at the back stage.
In the first Tokyo show, I was so close and ended up staring at Ookura playing drums XD I was happy to get to see him play up close ♥ Yoko went behind Ookura and tried to get some screen time.
Eightopop!!!!!!!
The members playing the instrument stayed on the platform to go back to the front stage. And the rest of the members went to the front stage from the sides of the dome.
Yasu made a speech about thanking us and they created a song to express their feelings to us.
All is well
Teeeaaaaars...
In the last show, hearts made out of card foam fell. Subaru and Ryo cried.
Encore
Koko ni Shikanai Keshiki
They performed as a band.
They performed it in all the Osaka shows except for the last one. For the last one, they announced the results for the unit team competition. Subaru wore the same outfit as he was in the DVD. He first announce the penalty game, which was the 24 hour watch inside an one floor house. The team has to be together all the way to morning. The house was rented and the cameras were set.
It was announced that the Beast team won. The Kari team was like, "We should have worn the fundoshi at the beginning.." Ryo yelled at them XD
The Beast team wondered if they get screen time
In my opinion, I didn't care about who I would want to see for the penalty game but I thought Beast showed the theme better than Kari. They had a little story and they showed the cool side that I looked for (Well, fundoshi aside XD). The chant part in Kari was kinda weird. I didn't really get it XD
It's My Soul
They went to the back stage by the carts.
During the last show, Hina filmed Subaru with a hand camera recorder.
Monjai Beat
They went back to the front stage. Yoko ran around the arena aisle and gave people high fives. In the last show, Ryo ran around too.
At the end of the second Tokyo show, Subaru kept saying that he can't see us before he left the stage.
Encore #2
A VTR was shown. They were in delinquent clothes. Sanbaka and the younger four were head to head with each other. A caption said they'll reveal the new song, King of Otoko!
King of Otoko
The performance was like in the PV.
Kyuu Jou Show
During the last Tokyo show, only this song played.
