Mine had completed this morning, which i woked up very early to check.
I watched it once, i was pretty shocked that they didn't include Superstar!
There were some clips of them while reharlsing for the concert and they were all so serious and professional.
Just for the last verse of Superstar, "Watashi no Superstar"
they had to discuss for quite some time and of cause practise to make it sound perfect.
And i was looking forward to the performance, but it wasn't there!!
Sorry, there's no kyogenshou as well.
and no dancestep for koi wa moboroshi as well.
But don't feel sad, the concert was really cool, especially blackout.. the whole thing became black and white.
Kinda like those past tvs which shows no colors.
Yume no ato is awesome as well, as you can see how much emotions she put into the song while singing it. I really love it!
Hata makes me so happy, as he is drumming with a smile constantly stuck on his face.. did i mention how sexy he is? "HEY BABE!"  |

Wheeh! So..finally i can drop some lines here about the virgin line tour
too. Dl has ended for me. First impressions, not bad at all i loved it!
well mayby not that much lolz, but this concert was way more better then Dynamite out! (imo). This mayby lacked the songs i was expecting they to perfom but shure they showed how good they can fit as a group together.
When they perfomed blackout that was nice as runawayschi said,
The whole black & white idea thumbs up 4 shure. Child choir this concert was all about having fun thats my vision.
Hata did an awesome job. well as the whole group did i might say.
clothes they weared for this concert were better ones imo, more adult styled then
on the dynamite out tour. Specially Shiina looked hot or sexy named what and the cat ears aww so nice idea. And i give honour also for the idea that Shiina singed with megafone/or what ever that is called not meny do that and heck it even sounded good. Fitted in the song. Yume no ato it turned to my favorite perfomance from this show... no im not crying becouse i would be sad no. Im letting a tear shed becouse as runawayschi said.
Shiina gived everything that her voice can give she putted all the emotions in this song!
overall not a waste of Hd im waiting this for a dvd release.
and even more im waiting domestic tour line! i bet they gived even more in there
Sorry about my long writings. but anyway i thought there had to be superstar mayby this was edited version becouse that guy in Tokyo incidents site said they perfomed it Do i remember wrong can someone correct me if im wrong please runawayschi? anyone? it shure was not there but the site said  |

I think there IS Superstar in the setlist, just that to fit the whole concert into a tv programme without editting parts of the concert would be impossible.
Not forgetting that they did have those slight cuts where the band members are talking.
But doesn't that just makes you want to hear the live version of Superstar even more?
From the practise that was shown in the Domestic Virgin Line, it sounded to me alot more harder and rock-ier than the one performed in Dynamite Out and from the album version.
I really excited and would definitely want to hear it on the Domestic "Just can't help it" tour.
Hopefully it would be recorded into a dvd as well..
*laughs* |

^^^^ Yeap, You are so right about in that,
that it sounded better then on dynamite out!
way way lot better. This was what i was actually waiting for
I also liked the harder and rock-ier sound that they played on practise as you mentioned.
So i hope also and im eager to see they what it sounds when they
perfom in it Domestic "Just can't help it" tour and the dvd release for both
concert *drawls* ^__^
awwww i cant wait i hope they release those soon if they do!
Then they can *rip* our money from us lolz like that luggage 55000 yen! gosh. |

man, i'm in a crisis, the file is making my computer lag.. No~~
therefore i have to delete it as i have no burner.
But every single thing that happend in it is stored and will remain in my brain forever!
so much for wanting to get my friends over to experiencing the magic of a tokyo jihen live with me.
*prays hard that the dvd will be released*
The 55 000yen luaggage, wow, i don't think for a fan like me who doesn't have a stable job could possibly afford it.
But the perfume is a different case i want it ever so much!!! |

Don't really know much about Shiina Junpei.
The only thing which i know about him is that he did a song, Tamanegi no Happy song with shiina ringo. Love his vocals, and his english sounded unlike other japanese singer.
He's english sounded perfect! A wonderful song if i may say, cheerful and upbeat.
Don't the guy at the site can help overseas fans purchase the concert merch?
If that is so, i would really love to ask him to get for me the perfumes, of cos paying him.
Maybe you can get the concert merch. you wanted through him?
But don't really know whether my parents will allow me to or not.  |

While looking through Yahoo! Japan auctions i came across this wonderful picture.
sexy if i might add.. its probably from the tour brochure..
oh man, now i want to get it even more!
there are tickets of the Domestic! Just can't help it tour up for bidding in the auction as well... but alot or almost all of them do not shipped overseas.
What a waste..
I think the shipping is the same for all the country, that's what he/she stated.
But of cos, if its for the luagage it will cost more due to the size/weight.  |

Other famous musicians will be joining him too; Terui Toshiyuki (of BLANKEY JET CITY) will be playing the bass, and Motegi Kinichi (of Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra & Fishermans) will play the drums.

Ha! Nice one, you're a constant whirlwind of information. Gold star for you
Just means I've got more to buy now
I'm gradually turning my Shiina/Tokyo Jihen collection from downloads to CDs! My Adult Pour Homme, Shouso Strip and Ringo No Uta (all ltd editions ) arrived yesterday.
Hmmm what to buy next.... need more Shiina |

Lol, whirlwind of information naw but really thanks for saying that
But anyways, once again there is a new news flash to the public
but this one is really sad, Tokyo Jihen's member the drummer Hata Toshiki has been injured, with the most accurate prosent hata will not be playing on SOCIETY OF THE CITIZENS event at the Hibiya Fields 07.02. HATA has stated and lefted a message to all the fans that he has broken a bone *there were NO specific information, what bone it was but he said, that he will be back and there is no worry's that he would leave the band.
more Information and everything else can be found at Shiina Ringo's site Kronekodow
Here is the full message that hata lefted for her fans,
All the thank you's goes towards thetokyoincidents
to the owner [Brad] that has translated the message to us:
I really apologize. There’s nothing I can say. I broke a bone. Or rather, somehow it got broken. I really really apologize. I hope you enjoy the show at Yaon. I’m sure it will be a great show and of course a great event. “Well, now that he’s out for a little while, I bet he leaves the band.” I’m sure some people are thinking this right now, but, again, I’m sorry, but I definitely will be back. Once I’m better, I’ll be back and as lively as ever. Even if they tell me I can’t.
Society of the Citizens Vol. 1 in Hibiya Yaon was helded yesterday.
The substitute drummer, was Sano Yasuo more can be found at TokyoIncidents Blog.
The site's owner was there himshelf. Te concert sounded very interesting check it out! |

haha, i know why the cover can't be posted.
the cover sure does goes with the "Adult" theme.
to me i think that the dvd is worth every penny!
Getting to see how Tokyo Jihen perform every live is an experience!
as they seem to like to play around with the arrangement of their music.
and with the recent jazz influence with their music im excited to see what's instored for me.
especially the cover tracks which i had nv heard before!
Hoping for maybe a balanced between jazz and rock?
and of cos Tegami and Superstar is making me want it it even more!
too bad gunjo biyori isn't in it.
September is less then 2 months away!
and im totally obessed with Mellow right now...  |
