First post here. I'm just going to type out anything that pops into my head. Sorry if this is incoherent.

I got there at 6 and the line was already at the end of the first block after cornering. By 8, it was double the size. I was surprised at how small the venue was upon entering. It really was a small clubroom with a bar at the back. I saw that the second floor, which probably had the best view, was already filled with people. My sister tried to get up there but was told they were VIP seats.

When the concert began, I was standing on the left side where the entrances were, near the middle probably at the 9th row. By the end, I somehow got pushed closer to the front, maybe at the 4th or 5th row. A lot of people ahead of me escaped to the back and many had to be taken away because they had cameras. I guess I'm lucky they got caught. My sister got pushed to the 2nd row. But even at our respective locations, we could barely see past Hyde's torso. We could see Ju-ken the entire time though.

The concert experience was generally enjoyable. There was a lot of pushing and swaying but everyone around me held their footing. I got humped and did some humping myself. The room got really hot really fast and even my jeans were soaked in sweat by the end. I felt bad for the small girls in front who couldn't take it. I also felt bad for the short girls in the back because they probably couldn't see past all the heads. Neither could I see, since I was standing behind a tall guy whose long ponytail went in my mouth a couple of times(it smelled too).

As for the sound, it was terrible to be honest. The music was so loud that it sounded like the speakers broke and everything was noise. There was feedback and screeching in most of the songs. I found it difficult to make out the bass and guitar. But maybe this was due to my position in the room. Still, I could hear Hyde clearly. His singing was perfect, like straight from the album.

About the members: Hyde was at the center with his rosy mic stand, Kaz played at the right, Ju-ken played at the left, and the drummer(Arimatsu?) was at the back. Hyde was his usual self with the usual look he's been wearing lately. He looked like what I expected but my sister, who doesn't follow Vamps, was taken aback by his beauty. During his MCs, he talked about pizzas the first time and something about being hot and yucky the second time. I don't remember any unusual stage antics from him, at least not anything he doesn't do at other concerts. I did notice he pointed at the crowed and twirled his finger whenever he wanted them to go crazy. He also grabbed a handful of roses from his stand and threw the petals at the audience. Oh yeah, when he splashed water on the audience, it flew straight into my mouth. I'm not sure if he drank from the bottle though. I was busy screaming since he finally moved to the left side of the stage, hence my mouth being open.

Kaz was pretty laid back as I expected. His top was of a black and white design. I thought he looked really cool whenever his hair fluttered while playing intensely. Ju-ken was definitely the most energetic. He interacted with the audience a lot more than Hyde. He was really good at getting us pumped and pumping. He loved to look at us.

The setlist was great. Vamps songs mixed with Hyde songs. Everyone screamed along to SEX BLOOD ROCK N' ROLL and HUNTING. EVANESCENT and HELLO got the most cheers from what I noticed. SWEET DREAMS was awesome too. By the end, I was wondering if they played I GOTTA KICK START NOW but I guess they didn't. There were also two encore calls. The first was in standard English but somehow the second became a Japanese En-co-re. I found that kind of funny. Maybe all the Japanese people started that one.

The concert ended at 10. I was loitering outside when the concert ended but left to get dinner. Maybe I should have stayed with everyone else. Anyway, my sister who was in front, managed to capture some short clips. Here they are.
