Sho Beat 060909
Trying to slowly catch up on my backlog of radio programmes.....

This is taken from Listener's Beat in Sho Beat 060909 and its about arashi rabu rabu-ing with each other....
And Sho talks about one of my favourite parts of the con.... the Sho and Nino rabu dance!!!

"Sho-kun, its been a long summer. Otsukaresamadeshita. The songs, the dancing and the talk, were very enjoyable. By the way, during Lucky Man and Raise your hands, when Sho-kun was doing the rap, Captain and Nino, weren’t they rubbing their hands over your back?  You were on center stage and when I looked at you, you looked like you were totally fine with it. Didn’t you feel anything?  Were there also other instances where they did that?

SHO: "It was sugoi.. During Lucky Man, at the intro, when I was trying to stir up the audience, Ninomiya-kun and Ohno-kun- they were just behind me and they were not tickling my back, somehow, when you rub your finger pads against the stage costumes that we wore, your fingers will become all shinny and glow, so that was what they were doing!!!  XD XD I was wondering what on earth they were doing… those two guys…!!!!  During “Raise you hands”, all five of us had to crowd together before dispersing and I will then go into my doing my rap… then when all of us are crowding together, those two…. They grabbed my butt and squeezed and squeezed it… (KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!)   I totally couldn’t do my rap… XD XD XD ( I wanna see this!!!). Those two guys.. they are really interesting….. Recently, those people in the back half of the concert, they don’t know what is going on, but those people in the front half, they were surely laughing their heads off…….. AHHHH!!

Next- complaint letter from an uptight fan:  

"Sho-kun, konnichiwa. Otsukaresama, that the concert has finished without any major incident. I attended the concert at Yokohama arena and I think that Arashi gave meaning to the word “Kakkokawaii” (cute and kakkoii). Esp the Cool and Soul. It was really kakkoi. Many times it almost knocked me over. It was surely a enjoyable concert, but, I have something I want to dare to venture to write. Sho-kun and Nino’s rabu rabu dance during "Ready to Fly", it was Captain’s main song… I think both of you were fooling around too much. (obviously a Satoshi fan).   Ohno-kun had choreographed the dance and it was a stylish song on top of that, and I suppose there are people who thought you guys were interesting but I don’t think of it that way; I thought you were intruding into his song.  I think Ohno-kun’s fans will even think of it more this way. I might be the minority, but I think there are some people around who think this way and I wish to tell this to you, sho-kun, so I am writing this mail to you. I wish you all the best in your new job as a news caster.!!!"

Sho: "Sumimasendeshita…(laughs loudly) Really. Sorry. I would like to apologise to Ohno-kun’s fans. Sorry. Like what I was saying about Ohno –kun and Nino just now, the people who came to the concert would know what I am talking about, during the song, the members would fool around with each other quite a lot. So, since the actual performance had started, it was difficult to apologise to Ohno-kun.  But for that part with Nino, I have been fooling around doing the rabu rabu dance with Nino since the concert rehearsals.  We have been doing that over the past 3-4 months of con rehearsals and we have become numb to it. What is enjoyable about it, we have become immune to it. It was really enjoyable, really I thought. So I want to apologize to Ohno-kun’s fans. Sorry. Recently, there has this type of letters which tell us what shouldn’t be doing have been getting lesser. As I get older I don’t get to hear such things. I am happy to read things like this, so please send it to me.. Maybe next week I will be flooded with all this kind of letters!! "

Well..... as far as i could see there were lots of excited screaming during that segment and I think most of the fans were pretty excited by this rabu fan service.  I think this fan is just a leeeetle uptight, but i guess what sho says is true, when you do it on repeat 100 times, you will become numb and it just becomes a mechanical movement.  (hmmm if I were to think about it from Nino's point of view: If I get to molest Sho 100 times, will I become numb?) 

Ans: NAH..... !!!  Bring 'em on!!
