I've probably forgotten most things by now since this is a month ago. And because I'm bad at remembering Tegomass song titles, I'm just going to write about those songs that I remember, in random order too.
The number of fans who went were well split, it's hard to say whether Massu or Tego was more popular. I saw many fans sitting near me holding Tego's uchiwa (myself included). But Massu's fans were really loud. During the concert, they kept shouting, "Massu!! Massu!!". I don't hear fans shouting much of Tego though.. Maybe it's difficult to decide whether to call him, "Tegoshi!", "Tego!" or "Yuya!"?
It was really hot inside the stadium, I was abusing my poor Tego uchiwa before the start of the concert.
Some fans of Tegomass were really young. I think they looked like they were at most 13? I wonder where they got the money to buy the tickets...... And I feel like some old sister beside them (>.<)
When Tegomass introduced themselves, Tego introduced himself first. When it came to Massu's turn, he said, "Boku wa-" (I am) and a Tego fan shouted, "Yuya!". So Massu continued, "Yuya janai" (am not Yuya). I totally cracked up at this part. Oh, and Massu's voice is really low, it's cute.
Going to KAT-TUN's concert was a very high experience. And surprising, cute as Tegomass is, going to their concert was also very high. They had fast, happy songs, and always try to engage the audience. More importantly, they have member-ai ♥
Tegomass are incredibly cute. All along, I know Tego is cute. And as expected, he maxed out his cuteness in the concert. There was this part in the MC, where Massu complained that he himself would only take 10 minutes to fix his appearance before the concert, mostly styling his hair. Tego however, would take 40 (? I may remember the time wrongly, please listen to the recording [download link below]!) minutes. When Massu said this, Tego made an extremely cute apologetic face and apologised. Needless to say, fangirls screamed really loudly.
Massu was really cute too. It's hard to pinpoint one example though. And I feel that his cuteness reminds me of Maru's cuteness. Been hanging out too much with Maru? =P
Also during MC, Tego wore Japan's football national team jersey. But I can't remember the number of the jersey now (>.<)
They sang quite many of my favourite songs, which made me really happy. Like Hanamuke, Kesenai, What's Going On, Highway, Chu Chu Chu!.
Kesenai was really awesome. This is easily one of my favourite parts in the concert. This song is my favourite Tego's song. And what made it even more special was that Massu played the piano in this song!! I don't think Massu knew how to play the piano before this concert. And when he started playing the song and Tego started singing. I just stood there and admired the beautiful scene *blissful sigh* Massu looked nervous the whole time he played; his fingers were careful and tense. But he didn't make any mistakes =D Tego's voice of cos' was beautiful.
Chu Chu Chu! was my next favourite performance. Tegomass came out with dance movements for the audience. I don't remember much of the actions now but there was this part where we get to send flying kiss to either Tego or Massu. They would turn and face different direction throughout the song. So I was very happy when I got to blow a flying kiss to Tego, hahaha. Oh, and this is the song with the most fanservice. Practically 80% of the member-ai came from this song. I remembered Massu's arm was on Tego's waist and I think they went on to be a little more touchy-feely but I can't remember the details now. Hmm, I feel though that Tego was not as touchy/act girly in this concert.
Did I mention I love Tego's eye makeup? I couldn't really see what exactly he put on from my seat but I believe there was at least eyeliner ♥ And thankfully, he clipped his hair, so he looked good despite the perm.^^
They came out with a remix of Ai ai gasa. It's faster and I feel it's really nice too.
For Massu's "solo", they sang Minna Ga Iru Sekai Wo Hitotsu Ni Ai Wo Motto Give & Take. If you have watched the Tegomass no uta concert (DVD) last year, you would remember that they had this part where mobile phone messages were screened. They had it during this song, and there were questions such as, "Do you like Tegomass?" and the fans shouted, "We love you!" (daisuki) in reply.
During another MC part (actually they talked a lot, and there were more than 1 MC part), Tegomass mentioned that KoyaShige went on the previous day, aka first show. I totally woke up at that mention (I usually drift off as I'm not good with listening Japanese) cos' I had wanted to see Shige D:
In Cheetah Gorilla Orangutan, on the screen, they had a video where Tego dressed as a cheetah and Massu as a gorilla. Gorilla!Massu was funny and cute, hehe. And Tegomass made the audience sang the "la la la" part, with the left and the right of the stadium competing which side was loudest.
Towards the end, when Tegomass thanked the audience, I could feel that they were really very touched and thankful to those supporting them. It was wonderful to see the idols appreciative and humble =)
Oh, and Massu kept mentioning in those MC part that he was performing for 55,000 people. And Tego had to keep reminding him that they were at Yoyogi stadium and not Tokyo Dome =P I guess it's Massu's dream to perform as Tegomass in Tokyo Dome ne?
Kiss~ Kaerimichi No Love Song is officially one of my favourite Tegomass songs now. This song is beautiful. At the very last part of the concert, when Tegomass had retired back stage, they screened a video, showing photos of the concert. And Kiss~ Kaerimichi No Love Song (just the music) was played. Of cos', the fans sang along. I could practically feel the love the fans had for Tegomass.
I'm reaching the end of my memory. I guess that's it for the fan report.
