Oh lord! LMAO XD

Cracked me up as well, but I don't know... I can somehow understand the guy at the shop a little bit . There is something that could be Mexican about Arimatsu's look ... I mean the tone of his skin and the way his beard is shaved... Put a sombrero on his head and a wrap him in a poncho... it would fit him .

[ SEP 14th Tokyo ]

- HYDE, Arly and Ju-ken came by bike. They enjoyed to come and go 3times in front of fans. K.A.Z was by car. JIN was already in the venue and tweeted "I thought bike gang outside was really noisy. But I noticed they are members."
Bike gang?
Cycling makes you healthy, Jin!

- K.A.Z was wearing blue gray shirt during the show which he wore on Nicoradi last time.
COOL!
What about HYDE?

- Ju-ken had something like a red feather on his hat. It looked like an antler. And black Roen shirt which HYDE gave him at VAMPARK the day before the show.

Juken .. I'm jealous of you!

- HYDE MC: "Do you feel me?!" A man in the audience "I love you HYDE!!" HYDE "Oh, thank you. Don't think about tomorrow! I'm going to..." A man "Marry me!" HYDE "Shut up!! I'm going to forget about tomorrow. Tomorrow is a new day!"
It was so funny!

- Arimatsu MC: "Hi, nice weather huh? Today I came here with HYDE and Ju-ken on Harley. We emailed each other about it last night. Zepp tour is coming to an end.

Amigo!' I also like to visit shrines in Japan. I went to Meiji Jingu the other day and found a Japanese drum there. I was interested in that as a drummer. But again, a guardsman saw me and said to me 'Don't touch!!' in English. He thought I'm a foreign visitor. We are going to not only USA but also Asia, Europe and Chile this time. I'm expecting same kind of stories again!"


Poor Arly! No one realizes that he is Japanese and even for Japanese people themselves.

- Ju-ken's pick!

Lucky girl!

- HUNTING: K.A.Z on the 2nd floor. I touched his back! He is not too thin. No problem for him eating sweets. While he was on the 2nd floor, a silly girl dashed and tried to hold him from his back. K.A.Z didn't realize what happened at first. She was ejected from the venue quickly by security staffs.
Aggressive fan! Luckily K.A.Z saved!

- TROUBLE: K.A.Z did monkey dance, but soon after that, he hid his face in his hands. SO CUTE.


- Ju-ken had a Chupa Chups in an encore. He gave it to a girl in front row.
WOW!

- LIVE WIRE: HYDE said something like "washashhhsshhhshshsh" It was like a dog.


- MIDNIGHT CELEBRATION: K.A.Z's guitar toss 9 times!! He hit his hand on the guitar once. HYDE shouted "See you!" in the end of the song and threw a mic to the stage so the reverb was like "See you---ee--you---ee----u-----e--..."

Actually, I was thinking that too! He does look very Mexican. Actually, when I think about it... Even FURUTON looked like he had a bit of Hispanic in him. Not nearly as much as Arly, but just a noticeable little hint. <3

Either way, now I have all these weird thoughts of Arly in stereotypical Mexican attire, shaking maracas back and forth and saying lines (in Spanish) from Zorro. Epic lulz <3

- I heard yasu, Chiaki Kuriyama, Eiko Kano, PAUL(44MAGNUM) and Mao(SID) were in VIP seat. Yasu was absolutely just a 'fangirl', waving to HYDE or staring at him with dreamy eyes.

- Bra HYDE. It was a white bra with black(or dark blue) straps. He had it on hood at first, then threw it while singing.

- K.A.Z MC: "Hi Tokyo. Zepp is almost over. We will go overseas, and then Nagoya....? Ops my mistake, Yoyogi." (Added Zepp Nagoya wasn't announced yet at this time. He didn't know he shouldn't tell.) "Oh, and we will have Halloween too. Anyone coming?" Many of us raised hands. "I have one thing I'm worried about going overseas. We have been on a diet since June, but you know foods are bigger than Japanese size over there. I would be very much wider when I'll be back. What would you do? Will you come to see us?" Fans "We will---!!" K.A.Z "Really? Even this much?" He gestured for being larger. Fans of course replied same. K.A.Z smiled. "You are really addicted to us."

- HYDE MC: "Coming here everyday makes me feel I come here to work. Recently I'm telling others that I work under the Ferris wheel." (There is Ferris wheel nearby Zepp Tokyo.) "Zepp Tokyo is kind of our home ground. Next show at here might be after 2012, but they said they won't fold up here until we will be back. Look forward to it! VAMPS will keep all standing concert, of course Yoyogi too. My dream is Tokyo Dome standing live! What we do is not always understandable to all people, but I really want to thank you for your support and understanding. Thank you so much. We are going to world tour and will be back after growing up." A fan shouted "Take care-!" HYDE answered. "I will!"

- HYDE: "Let's enjoy our last sex. Forget about tomorrow!"

- HYDE: "I'm having my tatoo done. I need to wrap my arms with plastic wrap, but it is very itchy because it's half-healed."

- ANGEL TRIP: I had been wondering how JIN throws his towel that high in this song. As I kept looking at him, he got towel rolled up in advance and got all ready before throwing.

- HUNTING: Ju-ken sang at HYDE's mic while HYDE went on the 2nd floor. It was a little low for Ju-ken, he had to keep crouching while chorus. K.A.Z threw bottles and picks from the stage while audience looked back HYDE on balcony. K.A.Z mistook in playing once and gestured at staff he did it because of ear monitor.

- REVOLUTION: K.A.Z put the guitar on his shoulder to cheer us up, then he tried to put it back. But the guitar strap got messed up, the guitar went upside down. Poor K.A.Z. He was upset but SOOOOO CUTE.

- DOLLY: HYDE flipped his shirt suddenly. OMG I couldn't help gazing at him...

- MEMORIES: Ju-ken and Arly talked something each other while they were playing. They were about to break the song's mood.

- In the end of the show, Secret Live on SEP 17th was announced. I went outside to wait for members coming out after the show. A staff recorded fans outside. He asked me "HYDE wants me to ask fans where you think will be the venue of 17th secret show. What do you think?" OMG I was recorded! He also said he would be fired if he let the secret slip.

- When HYDE appeared from the venue, he stood up on the stairs to let us see him easily, waved and smiled. K.A.Z walked to us with a big smile. He waved us after he got into a car. Ju-ken and Arly touched our hands. They are so sweet.

Oh seriously? Hardcore hate much? I bet he was saying nice things about us too

eeeh he never gave up on trying the perfect bra for his boobies LOL

No need to worry your pretty little head Kazu. I'd still love you if you got big :3 But it kind of makes me feel bad about our food now :\ We do have big food here, 90% of which I can never finish because its too much for me :s But we all know Kazu has a weakness for hamburgers and root beer which can be dangerous :3 But it wouldn't matter to me if he gained some weight, he's cute fluffy too!

I hope they're not too worried about weight.
I don't want them on a diet.
They need a lot of food.

Forgive me HYDE! Sometimes I don't understand what you're doing. But I will always support you. I will always pray that you and VAMPS always healthy and happy. I believe you guys will be much better.

I don't want this to be the last!

Thank you so much Yuiku!!!

[ SEP 17th SECRET LIVE ]

The venue was KAZOO HALL in Yamanashi. The capacity was about 250 people. This is the last show in Japan before they set out for the world tour. I wasn't there, nor watched live streaming, so I'm going to pick up MCs from other fan blogs.

For those who want the setlist, visit here.
http://vamps-live-history.seesaa.net/
Not only SECRET LIVE, she also updates about other Zepp setlists. If you like it and if you will be attending somewhere in the world tour, please help her to collect all setlists by sending her the setlist you remember. You can email her from the contact form right side on the blog. :D

-------

HYDE: "Welcome to SECRET LIVE. How did you find here? Enjoy! Come on sexy guitar K.A.Z!" then LOVE ADDICT intro.

HYDE: "I wasn't expecting big thing like this. Seriously. Eh...you don't have to shout like that because we are very close. We have reserved here for a long time, but even venue staff didn't know who was supposed to perform today. So they just put "Unknown" on the venue calender. I thought we would perform for only 3 people or so at first. We had a plan to give you a hint to find here, but as I looked the internet, you already found the answer. And, you were already like 'CATCH VAMPS!!!'. Some people were even worried about our budget. This venue is about 80,000 or 90,000 yen, so they said it's easy for us to pay for here. How much do you think it costs to move all equipments for the stage?! It costs much indeed. I didn't think many fans would come like this, but another side of me told me to prepare a TV outside in case of lots of fans reach here. I hope both outside and inside fans enjoy the show!"

HYDE: "Hey hey you make me embarrassed. Well, eh, don't stare at me like that. Sex through eyes? I found this KAZOO HALL on a magazine when we recorded FAITH. I was like 'Yamanashi? KAZ?? Is this K.A.Z's father's club???'(*actually No) I thought this hall is perfect for the final after traveling Zepp in various places. And...what was that?....'Kanzen Himitsu Live'! How clever you are! I never thought of that. That idea made me amazed."

(the title of the show was Kanzen Himitsu Live (=Fully Secret Live) in Japanese. A fan on mixi, named Kou, started to think it means "K Z H L" = "KAZOO HALL")

HYDE: "We had a meeting to make a plan for today. 'Secret Live?' 'No, I prefer Himitsu Live.' 'Let's add Kanzen.' Then I looked up mixi after the show was announced, and read Kou's idea. Amazing. We shouldn't give you hint too many next time. Next time we will make a reservation by K.A.Z's father's name. You will find him on the stage."

(A fan shouted "How about HYDE's daddy---?!")

HYDE: "HYDE's dad? My dad is yabai. I saw my dad on a TV karaoke show once when I was a kid. I also read you were wondering why today's show starts earlier than other shows. It's just because I want to drink longer. In the meeting we dicussed about where fans would come up with. KAZOO HALL schedule..."Unknown", Wakayama Gate schedule...empty. "Unknown" is too suspicious!"

(Fans "What about Nagoya--?!" K.A.Z blurted out Nagoya on 15th show.)

HYDE: "I was on the 2nd floor at that time."
K.A.Z: "I don't remember what I said."
HYDE: "K.A.Z, why Nagoya? What's about it? Don't talk about your personal schedule in MC, K.A.Z. We will tell you about it later. He just didn't know he shouldn't tell."
K.A.Z: "What are you talking about?"
HYDE: "He didn't mean to. He did well changing the subject talking about Halloween soon after that. Oh... we talk too much. I'm hungry!!"

---encore from here---

HYDE: "We don't have secret live any more. I hope we can go to your town sometime. How about "Secret Tour"? Well, Yamanashi is where K.A.Z was brought up."
K.A.Z: "Welcome to Yamanashi. First time for you? Wait, who are from outside of Yamanashi prefecture?"

(There were many.)

K.A.Z: "Opposite. Who are from Yamanashi?...... Anyone who came to our show first time?"

(A few raised.)

K.A.Z: "Oh, there you are. Yamanashi is a very good place. There are no one on a street after 8:00PM. It's very quiet. Good for a trip. We have peaches, wines, and...Hoto (=local udon noodles) and.....no more. It's good for one day trip."

(Fan "Want to stay your place K.A.Z---!!")

HYDE: "Then you need to make friends with him in advance. You need to be closer than friendship... For you who attend our show first time, I won't be surprised if you are confused about this mysterious space. Don't worry, you cannot find wild and warm people like them elsewhere. They looked savage, but they are nice. Thank you so much for coming tonight. Thank you who are watching us outside! You are really warm and nice. Look forward to next show after the world tour!"

HYDE: "Thank you Yamanashi! We will be back!!"

ahhh sorry for being long.

Japan show before world tour is over....it means.....they are on the way to your place! Hurray!

Thank you very much for reading my long report through the tour. And thank you all for your replies. Hope you enjoy your show!!!!!!! THANK YOU!!!!
