Show impressions - cathb - 07-26-2009
The concert was fantastic. People who were in the first row certainly deserved it since it was freezing cold (and windy) in San Francisco all day. Since my tickets were in Will Call, I knew I would be at the back. So I was pleasantly surprised to find myself about twelve rows back in front of Ju-ken. The crowd was well behaved with minor pushing. The venue itself was cool inside and Hyde mentioned how cold the weather was.
The t-shirts are back!
They changed the songs around a bit and came out rocking with Love Addict. They dropped Hello. :(
I never did see Jin and barely saw Kaz except when he came over to the other side of the stage. Ju-ken really worked the audience and was fun to watch. Hyde was his usual splendid self. Since it was cool at the venue, he kept his shirt on.
I got wet from Hyde's water and got one of Ju-ken's picks.
Can't wait for Monday at Vegas......weather forecast calls for a temperature of 108. Ugh!
As expected, no cameras were allowed. Someone else will have to post the set list as I was too wrapped up in it all to remember all of the songs. Hyde did ask for the audience to sing during Hide Away. Looking forward to seeing everyone again next week. :)

Best damn 2 hours of my life. However my guitar pick, yes mine, because Kaz threw it and it hit my arm and the damn security guard gave it to someone else. T_T Kaz...
Damn that man is gorgeous in real life. I mean seriously. He had some new guitars that I had never seen before. There was a Fender guitar that was white and then one I think was a Fender that has a dragon on it, its in black and the guitar is white. He was wearing a black tshirt with some kind of metallic gold lettering that I can't remember what it said. Or what the front design was. He was wearing gray shorts that go past his knees...I'm not sure what you'd call them and some black boots. He was wearing a cool VAMPS wrist band. It was black and white but not like the regular ones. Then he was wearing a regular one too.
Every time he got into the music I couldn't help but get into it too. He has such a stage presence that puts me in total awe! He is such a great guitarist and especially after seeing him live! WOW! My ear is still ringing from the amp next to me HA!
But MY GOD KAZ IS SO GORGEOUS IN PERSON!!!
Hyde said he "I love the steep hills" WTF I HATE THE HILLS HERE!!and "I love clam chowder" LOLOL "Yummy"
Ju-ken was awesome as well. He wore the VAMPS top hat and had "VAMPS" on his cheek. He was wearing a black tank top with I think white letters on it. I can't remember what it said. His pants were black and I have no idea what shoes he was wearing.
Jin had heavy eye make up and a black (what it appered to be) leather jacket. His hair was spiked up and that's basically all I saw of Jin haha.
Arimatsu I couldn't see him at all because of where I was at. However for the encore he did come out shirtless. I remember that. Oh and Juken took the top hat off for the encore too..

That really sucks that you didn't get kaz's pick........ Are you going to the other shows for a second chance?
Hyde! How could you?! You cheated on Boston by complimenting their chowder. We invented that!
RE: Show impressions - Tokio - 07-26-2009
@iceybabes: Awww, sorry about the pick! That sucks T_T I don't remember, did you go to the autograph session and get to meet him? I think you said you were giving him a book, did you get it to him?
@Everyone: Thanks for the reviews!
Hide Away, I haven't listened to that song in forever. Though, I'd still pick 'hello' over it~
