Fukuoka Day 2

The Fukuoka Day 2 seat I got was the best I got in this tour so far, in the Arena, right next to the tip of the left hanamichi. When the guys came up down my side of the hanamichi, it felt, just for that moment, that I was back in Yokohama Arena again because they were so close. The thing with sitting in at neck of the woods is that the guys know that the arena people get to see them close, so when they come right up to the tip of the hanamichi, 80% of the time they are facing the stands. Which is entirely understandable. It was only when they are walking back towards the main stage that they turn their attention to the arena mush pit. But I was not complaining. since I was in that block that runs parallel to where they get on the carts to be wheeled in or out.

Captain was giving good fan service that night, he got off his float and shook hands with some lucky fan carrying an Ohno uchiwa (she was estatic) and made an action like he was eating sushi to these two girls, one of which was holding an Ohno uchiwa which said ' my family runs a sushi restaurant'. Erm. (I guess that must be connected to his fishing obsession?!) 意味不明。After he did that, one of them started crying. (Roll eyes)  OKAAAAYYYY....And she was not even the Ohno fan. hmmmph. 

Did anyone see Jun lose his shoe? XD XD  At the start of Carnival Night Pt 2, when he was getting off his horsie, he stepped off the float and left one of his shoes on it!! So he had to reach for it and put it on again all the while grinning in a rather embarrassed Momo way.  Nino was getting off his flower float at the same time and was stepping onto the hanamichi when he saw what happened and without batting an eyelid, started waving at the arena crowd to take away our attention from momo putting his sneakers back on. Nice assist, ninochan!  ; )

I think the highlight of this concert, has got to be the MC and Ohmiya SK. On the 18th, the reception Ohmiya got from the audience was lukewarm, maybe partly due to the fact that quite a number of people might have seen the 'OHMIYA VTR' before and maybe because there were a lot of newbies at the concert. 

So I guess they decided to crank up (or revive) the Ohmiya SK Kiss.  That Chu~~ that Yuji gave Taka was a full front on peck on the lips and Taka's reaction to that  was the 'Yatta!!'  scream.  

The MC was also one of the more interesting ones:

1．They wanted to eat Mizutaki but instead went for Yakiniku. They feel like eating meat after running all over the concert. Sho mentioned that Jun was so kind because he wasbbq-ing the meat for Shochan.Jun was amazed that Shochan could use chopsticks with his left hand 3 weeks after his injury.

 2. After the meal, the went to a bar. Like in Nagoya, they also did the same thing. But at that time, the shop was full, so they ended up having to wait outside. And they formed a new unit called 好奇心. Sho is the leader. XD and the new unit took a 3-shot. 好奇心 went drinking at the end of the first day, but no one brought their wallet except for Aibachan, so he had to foot the bill. Jun joined them later but Nino didnt turn up because he fell asleep whilst getting his massage. 

3.  Captain complained that when he came back to the room and he had only walked 2 paces and the rest of them came batting down on his door. So they drank in Captain's room.  Sho said he woke up at 11am the next day.

4. Jun oftens sleeps on the floor becos it is cool, and that would cause him to wake up with a backache. So they made Capt do a Mono-mane (imitation) of Jun waking up with a backache. (all capt had to do to imiatte Junwas to snarl alot XD)

5. Satoshi went to visit his koten during that morning. The others asked him what did he wake up so early!! So Aibachan explained that since Capt was like a Ojichan, he was just doing what ojichans do - wake up early! XD XD

6. Aiba-chan's goal for 24 Hours TV this year : Not to cry. (we'll see) XD

We got Ohmiya SK Love at the end of the concert too, and Ohchan did a flying leap (like in his pose in Freestyle) and ran towards Nino. After which put his arms around Kazu's shoulders and declared that they were dating. Kazu mentioned that the first person he kissed since he turned 25 was Capt. XD XD capt's uraarashi also carried a few linesabout the 'Final Love', and asked the fans to watch over him and Kazu. XD XD XD

RIGHT. Poor Chinen will be brokenhearted. XD 

We closed the concert with a ３本締め (clapping three times) which was the first time we have done it during the tour.  Capt and Sho have been doing dorky fade outs when they exit the stage, and its totally hilarious. XD  I cannot explain more, because i would not be able to do it justice, so I will just say that it is Dorky, but adorable. 

8 down 2 to go. Ganbatte.
