Just curious: How did you guys give them the banner/thank you card? Did someone just drop it off at a gift spot or did you give it to a staff member?

Anyway, hopefully tomorrow after everyone gets their thoughts in order there will be lots and lots of reviews.

And I agree, prices in the 20s don't seem too bad actually. I was expecting things to be wayyyy more expensive than that due to costs to ship it all here.

Merchandise for those who want to know:

red/black bags
pink/lime green T-shirts
red/black bottle openers
black/pink/lime green wrist bands
VAMPS Live 2009 photo book
CD

I can't remember anything else... and there's definitely a chance there was a lot already sold out by the time I got to the front.

What I remember Hyde saying:
"Hey New Yorkkkk~~"
"How are yeewww?"
"It's hotttt."
"I had pizza today... I had twooo~~" -holds up two fingers-
"Do you like pizza?"
"I like it~~"
"Much bigger!!" -Holds his hands out-

God, I'm so dead!

<3 aki

oh-- I kinda remember the prices- the T-shirts and CDs were 20 bucks and the photobook was 25... crap... that's all I remember X___X

and I kneeeeew I was too far back T___T

Maybe it's just me but the price sounds a little reasonable, no? What do you mean too far back?

too far back to hear anything properly- I was back at the second exit at the time of that MC I think ><;;; or somewhere between the second and first exits... waaay off to one side...

@Tokio: Yeah- I was actually expecting it to be pricier too ^^ I was surprised at how cheap everything was

Aww that's lame! But I like the prices. Looks to me like I'll get one of everything :D ... if they're not sold out

Hmm does anyone remember how much the wristbands were? Dang I want to buy too much stuff :)

Just got back (it was raining heavily so..yeah...hope VAMPS+staff will be ok T.T)

Before I write whatever, just wanted to add that wristbands were $8 The bottle opener(?) was $2, I believe.. And the tshirts were sold out after the show. But they'll probably get more..right?
Oh and does anyone know if the sizes are for Japan? I know they run smaller compared to American sizes, and looking at the chart, I think XL wouldn't fit at all T.T;;

Aaanyway..Don't have much to say but that... I HAD A MOTHERTRUCKIN BLAST. Even though I nearly died at the start of the show Seriously, wtf happened?! Moshing?? wth...

And did anyone mention TROUBLE yet? lol that was one of my favorite parts of the live XDD Oh and I was kinda bummed they didn't do I GOTTA KICK START NOW... maybe in Baltimore & of course other cities? ^-^;

Oh and I was fortunate enough to get a rose petal I was about to ask this security dude with long curly hair, but then another [super cool] security guard asked me if I needed something. So I asked him if I could have a petal, and he kindly got one for me Oh and while I was doing that, I briefly said hello to visualgurl. If you read this, I'm sorry I sorta brushed you off..totally didn't mean to

And if anyone cares, here's a pic of the crap I bought XD


Yes, that dark red thing next to the wristband is the rose petal :p

If only we could get the actual [gorgeous] roses...too bad a Japanese staff member took the mic stand away..

And I'm gonna try to get more stuff in Baltimore...initially, I stood in line for merch when I entered Fillmore, but after seeing not many people at the floor inside, I ditched the balcony plans and..yeah..that's why I got my sneakers ruined and nearly fell XD >__> A lot of people left 'cause it was unbearable..also considered doing that too, but...HYDE..he was...so...close... ( ___ )

*cough*

lol yeah that pizza mc was hilarious XD

oh and I was blessed with HYDE's water...as much as I don't want to wash my face, I must XD

Sorry this is all over the place..I still can't hear properly and as said in the beginning of the post, just got back ^^;; Hope it was bearable to read XD T.T;

EDIT: oh and I wanted to ask... what was up with the bajillion Japanese fans? A lot of them were at the front of the line, then went to the back & stuff O.o; lol but it was cool to see so many of them in HYDEIST/VAMPS gear, head to toe

Thank you so much for the picture!
I'm surprised the prices are so reasonable!
I guess they understand that American prices are different from Japanese lol.

And glad that you had a blast!
I can't wait for my turn to come! lol

God, I'm so dead!

Oh, it seems the live was all madness~~~ Awesome. It seems it was really hot there and people were happy and excited. Thanks for the report, Hydoist ^^

Oh, and the MCs:

"I had pizza today... I had twooo~~" -holds up two fingers-
"Do you like pizza?"
"I like it~~"
"Much bigger!!" -Holds his hands out-

Extremely cute. Kawaisugi HAIDO


Ah, DEEP RED was performed?What about VAMPIRE DEPRESSION?

I also would like to know about... *cough* *cough* HIS sexiness. Was there any fan service?
I am really curious to know.
And what about the other members?

I TOUCHED HYDE'S SHOULDERS AND KAZ, BASSIST AND THE DRUMMER'S ARMS!
lol~I saw them entering and exiting the building hehheh.
Is the bassist Ju-Ken? IDK but my brother said he was super crazy, badass. I didnt really see him, I was staring at HYDE the whole time.

The beginning of the concert was crazy! I was like in the front (2nd row-middle) and I had like no room to move or breathe. Everyone was sweating like crazy. After a couple of songs, I HAD to get out because I couldn't handle all the heat and pushing. I went to the sides (that was in the front) and it was so much better. I could actually breathe, no pushing (except from the stafffs >_>) and I had a good view. (I saw someone faint and being dragged out!) Other than that, the concert went great. Everyone was really nice and VAMPS were amazing. HYDE sounded awesome and he looks exactly like pictures. He's really small though, very cute :D [his hairstyle needs to go though] His english was very good actually! I understood all his MCs! (TWO BOOTS PIZZAAA YEAHHHH) I was really happy with the songs they played. So much HYDE's solo songs!<3 HYDE was also such a tease to the crowd. He stuck out his guitar KNOWING fans can touch it. It was a situation of "so close, yet so far". He was extremely nice too. Had a smile the whole time when fans were all over him when he was leaving the building and even sign some autographs (lucky bastards! XD) He was definitely shock about the amount of fans & when he saw us waiting for him at the backdoor when he was entering the building.

Some goods I bought (they ran out of sizes really quick! I hope the medium shrinks!)
- Pink Tshirt (M) - $20
- Black Tshirt (L) - $20
- Green Tshirt (L) - $20
- Black wrist band - $8
- pink wrist band - $8
- black bag - $5
(I might be selling a green shirt and a wristband, PM if you're interested. IDK why my brother bought the green tshirt -_-)
**will take pics later =D)

stuff I didn't buy cus i was broke- tour book($25), cd ($20), and cap openers? for $5. they didnt really have much variety.

BTW, I forgot to mention, there was this staff member that was REALLY nice (and cute) to fans. I think his name was Taki? IDK he was also selling goods.

Yes I did. I gave it to a staff (after many rejected me, one was nice enough to take it. I think he was a manger? not sure) there was no fan gift box =*(

wut? how was that?

tell us more! ...wait...is that sarcasm? -___-

yep, I also think prices are reasonable.
Can´t wait for LA´s turn T________T

awwwww all of this sounds so awesome i can't wait I'm getting so nervous!! I really hope they aren't a lot of pushing and shoving going on at the CA lives though since i tend to lose my balance quite easy.

His MC's were adorable! I can't wait to hear him speak english in person XD

BTW did anyone meet J by any chance?

How did you street team leaders get the banner to them?
