T.M.Revolution & abingdon boys school blog

Actually, it was a suprise!

I didn't have plans to go when I woke up today, but I got an e-mail from Taka-san asking if I wanted to go. I didn't check the date, and I thought she meant tomorrow (the 28th) so I said yes right away.
However, she called while I was meeting with someone and I found out the show was today! Actually, I had a class in the afternoon, but I skipped it so I could go to the show: it was totally worth it! I also found out that Taka-san only had two tickets, but I had asked if my friend (who has been a fan of Takanori for 7 years) could come as well. As a result, Taka had decided to give up her ticket for my friend. This was so nice, I could hardly believe it!
The good news is that Taka could come with us afterall: we found this out as we waited in line for NHK Hall to open. I was so glad to hear this, because I felt really bad that she was going to give up her seat u_u. There were a lot of T.M. Revolution and a.b.s. fans there too, so I was getting excited.
As we entered the hall, Taka and her friend told RoK (who came with Germany ) to be the one to hand the tickets over: this way we might get some good seats. It worked! We got seats in the center, three rows from the front of the stage. We were so lucky!

Everyone was really exited!
Each time they changed the set for a different performer and we saw a keyboard, we'd say, "Are they next? I think so! But I'm not sure!" or something like that. I was always disappointed when it wasn't Takanori .
In preparation, we had been given glow sticks and made signs that said "Takanori Love" on them, too.
Finally, a.b.s. came out, and even though I told myself I would be calm, I totally wasn't. At all XD. I screamed a lot, especially when they started to play and I realized it was "Freak Show"! Hearing the whole thing, I defenitely love this song! It was totally amazing seeing Takanori live for the first time, even though it was just five minutes. At the time, and even now, it doesn't seem real: it's kind of like a dream. I just remember that he seemed kind of tired when he walked out, but then he really got into the song and smiled very nicely when he left the stage. The only sad part is that it was over so soon .

In short, thank you Taka and Romy and everyone who made it possible for my friend and I to go on such short notice! I appreciate it more than you know! It's one of the best days I've had so far in Japan, so thank you so much for being so kind to me m(__)m.

It was completely amazing

実は昨日、私達（私とまりまるさん）とドイツのファンRoK,アメリカのファンのジリーとアマンダの５人でPOP-JAMの観覧に行きました
ドイツのRoKは８年間もタカノリのファンで、ＵＳＪに続き昨日は２回目でした。アメリカのファンの子達は７年間ずっとファンでいて、昨日は初めてタカノリに会うことが出来ました
アメリカスタッフのジリーがレポを書いてくれたので、ちょとだけ訳して紹介しますね。
<ちょこっと日本語でレポ紹介＞
RoKがホールの係りの人にハガキを出して、ラッキーにとても良い席をもらいました！！
私達はアーティスト事のセットがかわり、キーボードが出てくるたびに「次は.a.b.sかな？」と話をして、違うとしょんぼりしました
私達はペンライトや「Takanori Love」と書いたものを用意しました。そして、ついにa.b.s.が登場！！私は落ち着こうと自分に言い聞かせても、まったくダメでした
彼らの曲が始まると、私はたくさん叫びました。
たとえ５分でも初めてタカノリのライブを見ることが出来て素晴らしかったし、今でも夢のようです　タカノリは最初、少し疲れているように見えましたが、歌になると微笑んでいました。本当に夢のようでした
