Hi There,
I just had another great time of my life! yep, I went to see WEAVER!!
yeah, WEAVER! the band that made me jump into this craziness of A Sketch Boys.
The One that led me to NICO Touches the Walls!
okay, before i start this post, please meet my partner in crime, ms. tetsu69ers , thanks for joining this Hit and Run plan and go crazy together! ♥
It’s being called Hit and Run since we left on March 13,2012, took 5:40 AM – flight to Singapore, and stepped our feet back on Jakarta at 10 AM, March 14,2012…blame it on our jobs *sigh
so let the story begins :
We collected our tickets in AFA Shop, SCAPE.. and fortunately, they also sold the A Sketch Goods,and.. you could imagine what happened next, we bought them.. (fyi, AFA Shop only received Cash, since we only had limited cash, so.. yep, we went to Money Changer in Takashimaya only to buy those goods *obsessed fangirl is obsessed*)
we started sitting in queue around 4.30 PM, met two Singaporeans, who are fans of Japanese Culture (they’re non-fans of Applicat Spectra and WEAVER, but when the show was over, both of them screamed and said “OMG! WOW!! They’re so great!! awesome!”)
here’s the outside of the venue
our seats are on row 3, right in the middle, good position! we could see clearly!
this was my view, they played the videos while we’re waiting..
First Performer was Applicat Spectra
i didn’t take any pictures of them since they didn’t allow us to take pictures (even though i saw some of the audiences took pics)
here’s my comment :
I’ve been attracted to them since their St. Elmo was out, for me, their interesting.. and i could say,never ever judge their talent only from their PV, their Live Performance was great! i always curious about how they’ll do their live performance since there’s no video about it, but yesterday, i could witness it, that Shinichi’s voice … is for real!
each of the members (except the drummer) were playing two instruments. awesome!
our favorite is Kenken ♥ , guitarist and keyboardist of Applicat Spectra, a very very cute guy, who’s so so cute♥ (sorry, i’m babbling, LOL)
they started with 神様のすみか (Kamisama no Sumika) , their new song that will be included in their new Mini Album, Spectra Orchestra. They also sang イロドリの種 which is the coupling song of St. Elmo. The rest of the songs were the new songs.. St. Elmo was sang twice, first was before the encore, then they sang it again as the last song in English! (no need to comment about his English, he is not Taka nor Yojiro)
I believe people could see that Shinichi was nervous, everytime after singing, there would be a ” ……………….” moment,LOL… He’s trying so hard with his English, nice job Shinichi! *thumbs up*
Then, Let’s talk about Kenken ♥, he’s a cute idol-type guy who could play like a guitarist and keyboardist(?) *okay, i mean… he has The Gap!* . Since First song, he had attracted the audiences, many people were staring at him. i mean, he’s so cute! (i know i’ve said cute for many many times, but he’s just so cute, LOL) ..
There was a time when Kenken went backstage, and came back to the stage with a piece of paper and spoke in English.. Believe me, i didn’t get what he said, but still clear on my mind his cute face while speaking! LOL… He also said, my name is … Kenken ! *aww.. that’s so cute♥ *
the unforgettable moment was when Kenken screamed : ” Do you love me??”, and when all the audiences said ” Yeaaa”, he was jumping around like a child!.. again… that was so cuuuuuuuuute! ♥
Okay, back to the Live Performance, when they’re back to do the Encore part, Shinichi said “Thank you for the Encore”…
I guess, he was surprised,that audiences also screaming for Encore (i mean,all the audiences, not just some)
Hey Shinichi, the Band performance was great! no wonder people were asking for Encore!
The stage lighting was nice, the sound systems also..!
Then…. there’s a break time, while stage preparation for WEAVER…. *kirin time, LOL*
and… finally, the one that we’ve been waiting for… WEAVER!!
They started with トキドキセカイ !! I said “OMG!! OMG!! that’s the real Yuji!, it’s the real トキドキセカイ!”. He really punched his Keyboard! just like in PV! just like in DVD!! the voice, was better than in DVD! i feel like, OMG! the rhythm was flawless ♥ .. Kawabe, the drummer was so funny, he stood on his chair, gave his Smile to the audiences! and raising his stick drums! *just like when i watched Jubilation DVD (minus the standing on the chair part)*… And Shota, the bassist, he’s so adorable! ♥
A second song was 愛のカタチ and i still stunned, just held my towel and couldn’t believe my eyes and ears that i was watching WEAVER live on stage! (overrated?! , hey,that’s how i felt!).. don’t know how many times i said “aww.. ” to tetsu69ers because i was so …. so… amazed..
sorry, i forgot the setlists… please, my head was not that sophisticated to remember all the setlist since at time i was trying so hard to keep myself alive, LOL..
but i remember the last 3 songs before the Encore, based on tetsu69ers memory, they were 2次元銀河, 管制塔 (we were watching Kanseito in RIJ, the night before we took our plane! so i felt.. awwww) , and 66番目の汽車に乗って …
They seemed very excited seeing that they were known in other country, don’t know how many times we saw Yuji, lost his words when he wanted to talk..i know, one of the reasons is because he wanted to speak in English, he many times said “thank you very much..i am happy… next song i will sing it with all my heart, i love singapore”
the MC Part was so cuuuutee♥ … Kawabe took a big part, he told us that this was his second time in Singapore, his first time was his Family Trip, and said that he loved animals, he loves Singapore, and giving his big smile.. all he said in English! Kawabee!! ♥
then Shota part, his English was better than Kawabe, he said, it was his first time going abroad after 10 years..
the funny thing is, when Kawabe was super excited telling his story, the rest of the members was giggling, that’s so adorable ♥ … there’s a time when Yuji showed a hand gesture to Kawabe, asking him to calm down while smiling and giggling… aw… Yujiiiiiiii!! ♥♥♥♥
Encore Part (of course people were screaming aloud asking for Encore!! Encore!!) , they’re coming out, singing Shine!!! and Tinkerbell. Before singing, Yuji said, “you can take a picture of us”… people were wooow!! yes, it’s camera time!!.. After saying that, yuji was like giving a peace signal pose and smiling ♥ …
(all of the pics in my post here were taken at the Encore time)
This is the time when they wanted to start singing Shine
his hands …. OMG!! OMG!!! *__________*
waaa… i thought i would only be a viewer on tumblr, but now i was part of them, soo excited!
they posted it on @WEAVER_STAFF (credit to twitter)
the Last Part : Handshake Event!!!
they were standing at the exit door, the first one is Applicat Spectra, drummer , Kenken ♥♥ , the other guitarist, and Shinichi… i was shaking their hands, they were saying thank you, and i was like said arigatou gozaimasu, tanoshikatta desu (that’s all in my head) … then the Weaver part! i was lining after tetsu69ers , when Kawabe saw her, he pointed her and showed seems like heeey…i recognized you guys *awwwww , when she said, Indonesia kara kimashita! he surprised, and replied Indonesia!! then i said also, “yes, Indonesia!!… hontoni sugokatta desu!” ..believe me, i couldn’t listen what he said…OMG! he shake omy hands quite long,..and seems didnt’t wanna let go *halah *aaaaawwwwwwww……. Shota also said :Indonesia! then reached my hands *aaawww (again!!)… last one… Yuji seemed like wanna say something when shaking my hands *he also seemed interested, but… the chaperone… yess.. itu mbak! yg koordinator ngedorong gw ama temen gw buat cepetan! sompret mbak! kita dr negara tetangga lhoo… dateng demi weaver! biarkan kami bertemu sejenaaak T_______T *sorry, i’m rambling with my mother language* LOL…
Aaaaaa…. my first handshake event, and totally wowowowowowowowow!!
after that, since we had VIP Tickets, so we needed to exchange our tickets with signed poster :
(gotta think where should i put this in my room)
the funny thing was, we took a wrong way back to Sommerset MRT, since it’s almost 23:00 PM, and we’re still having Post Concert Syndrome … LOL
We were having a great time!!! Awesome Show!!!
Please… bring more to Southeast Asia!!
just an info : when we’re buying goods in AFA Shop, we met an event coordinator,when he knew we’re from Indonesia, he also said “we’re in process in bringing this one *pointing to Zankyou Reference Album”… yees!! we said : “please! bring them in! we’d love to see! for sure we’re coming back!”……hopefully, they could bring ONE OK ROCK to Southeast Asia… AMIN!!
