Few points from NEWS concert in Kobe - 26/8/2012
Writing only few points so I'll remember - since no one reads it anyway ;p
The concert
The concert was AWESOME! I got sunburn everywhere since I was on the sun's side... was REALLY hot today! Koyama said that in Tokyo it wasn't so hot like in here...
They did some kind of colab with a marching band from Tokyo for a medley, and it was an absolute WOW!!!
Lots of KoyaTego and ShigeMassu moments ♥
Of course, also KoyaShige and Tegomass moments, but not many...
Before the concert there was a countdown on the screan - the same one that was for the announcement of the 4nin NEWS.
tones of fireworks, fire and water (whether from big splashes or the members that taking a pipe and splash the stands - and each other...).
Some MC stuff:
1. During the MC they tested Tegoshi how long he can sing the end of Chankapana (you know - when he sing it really long), and than they challanged Shige to do it... he held maybe 5-10 seconds, and extremely off key ;-p He complained he can't sing in Tego's key. Tego was on the floor - he laughed SOOO hard!!!
2. They told that today Tegoshi was in their dressing room with his bath robe, and they were all there, and he suddenly opened it - and they found he had no pants... only a very small towel to cover "it" (and they said "it") XDD
3. they were talking a lot about HSJ. Shige said that yesterday he went to eat with his staff from the radio, and his manager was wearing HSJ shirt. Also, Koyama said that he was eating with his family and all they talked about was HSJ...
4. Yoshida, the gold olimpyc winner that said the first thing she want to do when back in Japan was to go to NEWS concert, was in today's concert. They said "thank you" toher <3
5. At the end of the MC, when Tegoshi went to preper for his solo, the rest of the members tried to do an experiment with the penlight. Since it was allready dark, they wanted to see if it's possible to do a wave with it. IT WENT REALLY AMAZING!!!
6. Koyama came to show the poster of his new butai, and said that when he opened it on their room, it was written "niku" on the meat he holds in the poster. He wondered who did it, but then he saw on the top that was written "Te" on the left side and "Go" on the right side...
During Banbina, Tegoshi looked really slutty, and OMFG for Koyama's torso!!!!! ♥ ♥ ♥
there were 4 solos: Tegoshi wore white shirt and black pants and dance really sexily on stage. It started right after a movie (OMG for the movie!!! Tegoshi in the shower, than goes out and having sex and then his partner leaving him). Followed right after was Shige's solo. He dressed up like a vampire, and on his last sentence ("here comes the sun") he wore vampire tooth. Later was Massu's solo - black sunglusses, shiny clothes and "madona mic". He looked SO MUCH like Nino!!! Than was Koyama's solo. Sorry but it wasn't impresive at all...
When they sang one of their love songs, they cut the screans to two parts: one showed the member who sang, and the other showed the audience. When Shige sang, they showed fans holding Tegoshi's uchiwas (there wasn't even one Shige's...). When Tegoshi and Massu sang there was their uchiwas, but when Koyama sang, there was mostly Tegomass and some Shige's uchiwas. The audience were laughing so hard!!! And the members didn't understand why because the screan in-front of them showed regular performance...
Great fireworks at the end :-)
Of course there were also some happenings: Koyama almost fell off one of the stages, and Massu forgot the lyrics for WEEEK. There was part at the end where Shige jumped on Koyama and Koyama ran with him to the middle stage - and Shige's pants almost fell (he wore light-blue boxers today...)! Also, during the last Chankapana performance (they did 3 times Chankapana, 2 times NEWS Nippon and 2 times WEEEK) Massu slipped on the stage really hard because the stage was wet from the performance of NEWS Nippon. It looked really painful. He fell on his front and needed the help of Koyama to stand again. I think It was cute how everyone went to him and Koyama as helping him stand, and how he tried to hide the pain (though you could see it on his face...). I think that's why the audience didn't call for another encore... Also, I heard from my friends that were in the arena, that Tegoshi got splashed from fans' bottles, and he signed them not to do it.
and they drank all the time - not only during the MC but also during the singing part itself. It was REALLY hot today!
There was no crying - only a little from Koyama, but the audience cried during his speach...
