REALLY? From Kat-tun and Exile? Hah, well I'm not a big fan of either but that's really amazing if it's true!

At the SF show, we had the percussionist's wife there and maybe some of her high school friends


Security kept kicking people out of the back row of the front middle loge section, said it had to stay open. Towards the end a big group of women sat down and security let them stay. They really knew the songs and one of them went crazy for the percussionist. His wife again?

When I got bumped, the HoB manager said the 1st 2 rows of the middle loge were being saved for Utada's VIPs, so maybe the celebs were there. I saw a group of Japanese people bypass the line and get escorted to the 2nd row. One of them looked like Utada too...a relative?

I am still in the LV airport so I am going to post my little report later!
Mistykz, were you in the group that got there at 930am? I got there around 11am and ughhhh it pissed me off so badly that I got there second in line basically and I didn't even get barricade because HOB staff is so incompetent.

But it's ok, Hikki made it amazing and Mori-San threw me his drum stick. :D


Yup, I was the very first person in line :P At least until they moved us the second time, and it became a giant mob, ugh! Congrats on getting the drumstick :D After the band left the stage, we asked the tech if we could have Hikki's drumsticks (because they were still lying on the floor) but he just shook his head at us and chuckled. Although now that I think of it, getting very front AND something to take home would seem a bit unfair

@ klown
i must have been really close to you! i was maybe 1-person away from dead-center and 2 people away from front row.

@ mistykz
were you the girl with the striped stockings? if so, you definitely got a great spot xD i was 2-people to the left and two "rows" behind. glad the early line-up got you a good spot despite the bad organization ^-^ i think my spot was probably pretty appropriate for getting there around noon, thank god.

@ Akio
i probably saw you in line, too. i was in a small 3-person group (me, my fiance and our friend) between the funny filipino group (never got their names :<) and Kimi's (girl that brought the birthday flowers) group.

it was so frustrating when the staff just let everyone rush inside! i think most of the early people got front row, but i didn't see some of them at all. in the end it came down to a foot-race. i tried to let the people in front of me stay ahead of me, but once people started passing around us i couldn't take it anymore so i bolted down the stairs to try to secure a good spot.

i got really confused who was with the earliest groups and who just got lucky. some people showed up late to join their early-bird friends in line, which was confusing once more unfamiliar-faces got mixed in when people were just placed at the head of the barricaded line before anyone else.. (i'm assuming they had staff connections). once we got into the concert i couldn't tell who was part of what groups anymore.. though i'm pretty sure the front-row people directly ahead of me at the concert hadn't been at the front of the line at all.

---

completely unorganized line logistics aside, the concert was INCREDIBLE. what an unforgettable night! all the unfortunate circumstances in the world would not make me regret going.

i was a little disappointed by the lack of enthusiasm from some of the people in the first couple rows.. i mean, not disappointed in them individually, but at the fact that all the more energetic people ended up further back. i really wanted Hikki to be able to physically see how excited we were to see her. luckily i hear the rows behind me were more active (i couldn't see for myself since my eyes were glued to Hikki <3). Vegas made SURE we would not get a "why weren't people dancing?" comment on her blog, oh yeah! xDD

i also got directly stared at during You Make Me Want To Be A Man
i had been trying to wave at her all night, but she seemed to look more often to her left or right so i was starting to think she wasn't going to notice me at all (despite me being like.. the ONLY person with a glow stick in my line of sight). then all of a sudden she looked at my section and then DIRECTLY at me and smiled while singing and looking at me!!! i swear it lasted at least 5 seconds, but the shock and euphoria of the moment might have made it feel longer. xD i'll have to wait for a video to pop up to see if i can catch it!

congratulations to the people who caught the Kuma balls!! i saw one guy with one after the show, it looked amazing <3 i knew i should've brought my baseball glove. xDD

Ahh I know you, glowstick girl~! XD You were the only person around me I could see that was singing to everything like I was. The Filipino group was next to me(I was the one in front of them in line), they were very nice! And yeah... like the people in front of me were the ones that just showed up like at 6:45pm and was let in in front of everyone, and the whole time they were so boring, just standing there. It made me kinda mad, I didn't even see them clap once. :s The blogger guy that got the autograph looks a lot like the guy that was in their group, too. D:

But overall everyone I met there was SO nice. I've never had that many conversations with strangers before lol. And I am very pleased with the Vegas crowd on the whole. x3 Very funny and energetic.

I think this concert is the start of a very good year for me. XD 2009 sucked so badly.

I was the guy who came with the girl in the pink stockings :P Our spot was awesome! After people started running though, I did too just because I wasn't going to let my 10 hour wait go to waste.
The filipino girls were really funny to talk with, and we actually ran into them again about an hour and a half after the concert over in the Luxor

haha, I was the girl in the striped stockings.
Yeah, my spot was pretty awesome ;D but we had been waiting since 9:30 [we were the first ones there] so I felt like we kinda deserved it lol
thankfully, our concert buddy that we met in line got to the rail first and saved spots for us, after that mad rush that happened when they opened up the line's barricade...management seriously ticked me off so much :/

Also, dunno if you guys are interested, but I wrote about my experience here: http://phenphenny.livejournal.com/272004.html
although it includes details of our roadtrip from Colorado, so it may be a little boring :P
