First post. I`ve been stalking around without ever creating an account, but I though it`d be nice to connect with other people who had a blast at the concert.
What an amazing night! Completely worth the 12+ hours of travel time and the hours of waiting in the cold. Went with two of my friends, we missed 2 days of lectures to come, not that I completely mind that. Waiting in line was interesting. The demographic was diverse in both a good and bad way. Right when the doors opened and the line was moving some people tried to sneak into the line like they`ve lined up there the whole time. Fortunately, they realized that I was not going to allow them to cut in front when we`ve waited for hours and hours. Violence would have been used. Anyways, I digress... I managed to keep my camera on me, but every time I tried to take a video or picture someone around me tried to do the same and got caught, so no opportunity. Let me just say that I was overjoyed to see her live! Her vocals were amazing! Great setlist, though I wish she sang a few other songs as well. It just ended too soon. I came quite early, and got in before the place filled up, but thought it was better to stay in the back for a clearer view, rather than be cramped up behind a group of taller people. It was so awesome. I swear I was starting to cry a bit a few times. The crowd was so enthusiastic! Everyone was singing and dancing along. It was great. I was expecting more Japanese people to show up though. I just had such a great time. It was odd seeing so many parents there though. I know others wished for a bigger venue, but the intimate setting was great for the concert. I`m not sure I would have been as excited if I was in a giant stadium so far away that I couldn`t actually see her person. Though I would have paid any amount for front row seats if that were the case. I really wish I got some photos or videos, but the experience itself was enough to make me happy. I can`t wait for the album she`s going to work on after this tour to come out, or the DVD for that matter. I know I was there... but again, I would spend the money. P.S. Yes, the guy who was told to shut up or stop talking, whichever, was a bit annoying, because I wanted to hear Utada speak. But come on guys, it`s a concert, and it`s alright to get hyped up. It was funny, and it didn`t hurt anyone. She handled it well, and rowdy crowds or persons are part of the concert experience. |

OH MAN, SO *YOU'RE* THE CANADIAN!! XD MAJOR props to you, man!! You've got some major fan dedication, I commend you!!
 I also like Canada and Toronto especially. I feel like everyone's so much nicer there. XDBut yeah! Where were you specifically in front of the line? Were you right by those apartment doors? X'D I was in the group right behind that line divider an hour or two before the doors opened (no idea WHY they did that, it wasn't that necessary) and we definitely noticed people trying to cut -- "Okaasan" (someone's mom who was with us and yes she was Japanese) also ended up going around the metal divider to tell people to get in the back of the line. I eventually made this sign in my sketchbook:  Sigh, I can't believe people were still JUST arrive at 6:30pm... and totally thought that the end of the line was IN FRONT OF US. That divider WAS misleading though so I'm sure some people didn't even realize. Keyword: SOME. :'B This one guy that was passing by was like, "Harsh! REAL harsh! :'D" And i was like "AAHAHAAHAHAAI'MSORRY." Quote:
...Yeah, I totally thought that part was funny, imho. X'D I mean, I thought it was cute. Tbh, I was kind of JEALOUS that she acknowledged him. I don't have enough balls to speak out that much -- if I did, I'd have screamed about my sketchbook drawing... "I DREW YOUR FACE BECAUSE IT'S SO BEAUTIFUUUUUL!!!" >3>; Harhar, dork status~~  |

oh, btw, here's the Utada drawing I did.
 It's kind of sloppy. And, uh, sorry for my watermark-whoring. X'D After some incidents that happened to my friend(s), I've become a little paranoid of art theft... 8'D /failfailfail |

concert was amazing. simply amazing.
one thing to point out that no one has yet to say yet.. someone in the crowd screamed out "i like your boobs".. and it was definitely loud enough for her to hear it.. other than that, does anyone recall the sequence of songs she sang? there was one song in there that I completely did not recognize and it was an English song, might have been a cover. |

i THOUGHT thats what I heard that...and it felt like she heard that too, because she chose to ignore. it made me cringe a bit. was it possible that they said "i like your books", cause she did write two right? Edit: (if you're going to the London concert, don't read this...its pretty much a spoiler. you'll be much more excited when you realize which song is coming from recognizing the first couple chords) Set list - Opening On and On Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence ?

Aack, I am so behind on all the newest New York news!
What I will say is that I REALLY hope they were recording the concert, because my friend who missed out on her deserves to see what it was like seeing her live, even on just a DVD! |

THANK YOU. My opinion is my opinion a lone. I also waited for many years for an opportunity to see my favorite artist and I've been a fans of hers since I was in 7th grade. So please don't comment back like you know me. I understand your devotion and all, but there's a way you can conduct yourself in a more courteous manner. That's all I was saying. |
