They definitely have their charm. Though you can definitely criticize them for being formulaic they’ve delved into a lot. Even if they’re not your favorite I’m sure you’ll enjoy the show. I would recommend learning the choruses to Star [K]night, Kyokutou Ranshin Tengoku, and Quints as those are the typical fan singalong songs. The bridge to Jishou Shounen Terrorist would also be good to learn.
As far as general good songs that I really liked The Last Show. It’s not vulgar like most jazz kei and is written more theatrical which I really liked. Fragment is also very good. Very raw and powerful lyrics and Sakito learned to play the Mandolin for this song. So I recommend it.
Thanks for the tips! I definitely need some since diving into their discography without a guide is quite intimidating
I am definitely good with GA for the tickets. I miss the days when you got to embarrass yourself for free but I suppose they are forever gone now. Then again, as an adult with money I kinda like the fact that we can now pay to get to front. I would have hated it as a teen though.
You probably can with smaller acts. Because for them it’s like “I have to pay ? Who even is this guy for me to pay”. But established acts don’t get that since the audience already knows who they are and many will be there explicitly for them.
Saw that recently with The Rare Occasions. They toured with a singer named Bel and her’s was free. She was there to sign autographs and sell her merch. For TRO it was not free.
Yeah but way back in the day we had even major bands like Kagrra, MUCC and Despa doing autograph sessions completely for free. Not DeG or The GazettE but still
Yeah their discography is quite long. I recommend the concerts since those show a wider range of discography. I recommend the Tenka Daiboso from 2005, Five Stars Night from 07, and Super Saitama Arena from 2010. The SSA one makes more sense to watch since it’s the most “recent” (14 years a quite far from recent I’m aware) so they have songs the previous concerts lack.
Way back way back ? Because Mucc’s peak was when VKei was only beginning to gain more commercial attention. A big act for VKei wouldn’t be so mainstream yet which could explain it
In the late 00’s, during the intenational vkei boom. There was no VIP nonsense, just normal tickets and sometimes autographs before/after the show or in a separate location.
Whoa what @paradoxal hit me with this info yesterday and I was blown away, a FOURTH VK-gig and THIRD in Finland within a year, is this 2007-2008 or something? Naitomea was never on my top top list of bands but been on my lowkey-radar, and randomly anima was my first ever physical VK-album I owned so excited to see them and Ääniwalli seems like a fitting venue?? Much better than On the Rocks or Vaunusali…
I googled it and it seems to be the word used in k-pop for artists giving high fives to fans… so yes
already have another huge concert in January and can’t take anymore days off
