GazettE~London~concert review

[Tifa]

As promised, here is my review of the GazettE show at London. ^.^

...*ahem*... AAAAAAAARRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!
...Yeah, i think that about sums it up!
The show was so awesome! I can't believe how close they were (and yet so very very far. T.T). The hall was pretty small, so wherever you were stood, the stage was always close. It wasn't hard to see the members atall (until you had someone bigger than you jumping in the air!).
So now onto what happened:
Well, in between random squirting of water from Ruki, soaking the audience and throwing bottles at them, he also took a rose for the opening of one of the first songs and picked off the petals for the audience members. I mentioned the squirting of the water before...He also felt the urge to do VERY RUDE motions with the water bottles! (i.e. pretending they were a certain male body part. XD) But before that, there had to be some fanservice. So, of course, there was the whole 'feeling myself up' part from Ruki (which got the audience going! Really, WOW!! ^.^).
They played lots of songs from the latest album, 'Stacked Rubbish', but also quite a few classics from 'NIL'. Lots of my personal favourites were played: 'Nausea and Shudder', 'Filth in the Beauty', 'DISCHARGE' and, of course, 'CASSIS'.
AND GUESS WHAT?!?! We serenaded Kai!! HELL YEAH!! Since it's his birthday the day after the show (28th Oct.), the whole audience sang 'Happy Birthday' to him while they got ready to play another song. Kai simply stood up, smiled that smile of his and said "Thankyou so much." (HE SO CUTE!! )
Of course, there had to be an encore...and although we were left shouting after them for a good 30 minutes, it was well worth it. The highlights of the show definitely came after the encore. Of course, the first to come back onto the stage were Kai and Reita (could it ever be anyone else? ^.^), starting their duet of bass and drums. When Aoi and Uruha bounced their way onto the stage, the whole audience screamed again!! You could barely hear Reita's "3, 2, 1, GO!!" over the crowd. THEN CAME RUKI!! YAY!! Uruha looked like he was gonna get pret-ty close and personal with Ruki a couple of times, but the fanservice was already over. Not that it made any difference to the reception they got from us!! Yaoi or no yaoi, they still rock!!
Near the end, a few things were thrown into the audience (including more water XD). Bottles and then...DRUMSTICKS!! Yes, Kai's drumsticks were thrown into the crowd. And i very nearly got one!! But the dude next to me go to it before i could. >.< Damn other people and their fast reflexes!!
It was the typical line-up onstage. You had Kai at the back, rocking on his drums, Aoi and Reita to one side of Ruki and Uruha on the other side (where i was standing. ). THEIR HAIR!! OH MY GOD!! It was just the best!! Especially Ruki's and Reita's. So spiky and kewl.
Merchendise? HELL YEAH!! There were bags, t-shirts, sweatbands, posters and CDs. All the T-shirts in the style i wanted were sold-out by the time i managed to push my way to the front desk to pay, but i got a bag and 2 CDs, 'NIL' and 'Stacked Rubbish'. I'm happy with that. ^_^
Soooo there's my review of the concert.....not ecstatically detailed, but it's the best i can do at 2:53am. XD Hope you guys get a picture of what the show was like. It was totally the best!!
Over and out.
