Well I've bought the tickets so I am definitely going. But god damn ticketmaster's exorbitant fees, ended up costing me like 50 dollars. Going to be driving up for it, so I bought a parking pass too. Anyone else going?



Sorry you didn't get a ticket Madara. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... #>/sad.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':sad:' />

I'm liking it, it'll probably earworm me like every other song of her's has so far.

Did anybody go to this concert?



I did karaoke on Saturday with 11 people who all had their tickets. Someone offered me a ticket (it had been sold out when I tried to buy one) but I wound up not going because I needed to catch up on sleep and be well rested for an important meeting at work today that I just had and it wound up taking a grand total of five minutes! Oh, well... <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... adwall.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':headwall:' />

I went! It was supposed to start at 6 but the line wrapped around the building for blocks because they had to screen everyone for digital cameras/recorders. So it didn't actually start until like 8pm. But it was fun. I tried to take pictures with my phone but they all came out really blurry and you can't really make anything out. She did most of her songs and also her unreleased song coming out in May. It was my first concert like this and I'm not sure I'd do it again (especially since I had to do it alone, haha) but it was definitely a good experience.

Thanks, Tsuki!



My friend Josh went to the concert and filed this report:


Kyary Pamyu Pamyu's first World Tour found it's way to the heart of Manhattan and all the Little Monsters showed up...wait. That's Lady Gaga's fans. Ok. Well, Kyary DOES have a song called "Fashion Monster" where everyone puts their "paws" up...All of KYARY's Little Monsters showed up, dressed to the nines in creative Lolita Fashion, as if Harajuku just plopped down in the middle of Times Square. Kyary inspires her fans to let their freak flag fly and treats herself as a work of fashionable art.



Her music by producer Yasutaka Nakata, the wunderkind producer of electro-pop acts Capsule and Perfume, does all her music and it fits perfectly with her Salvador Dali-goes-to-the-Circus-in-Japan style and vibe. She debuted new song "Invader Invader" which incorporates the sound of the day, dub-step and sent bass into everyone's deep deep insides, reverberating like mad.



She was pleasant, pretty and changed dresses more than a few times, showing strange and wonderful clips from a "TV show" she does back in Japan, that was as surreal as you might expect, while she changed.



But NO review of her live show would be complete without complete and full acknowledgement of KYARY'S DANCERS!! The choreography and dance for each song is at such a high level of expertise, it is akin to watching a great modern dance performance. The four dancers, two male two female, were never introduced, but they should have been, as they both made and stole the show. I am certain this is part of Kyary's plan, though. She, as the center, is the piece of art, and surrounds herself with such amazing colors, music, fashion and dance that each piece, including herself, is of equal importance to the whole. The dancers were simply brilliant and the best I have ever seen supporting a "pop star".



All in all the show was a celebration of Japanese Pop Culture, the Kawaii Culture and Fashion Culture of areas of Tokyo like Harajuku. One cannot talk about current Japanese Pop Culture and not include Kyary Pamyu Pamyu in that conversation.




He also says he saw a crew filming Kyary in the East Village in the hours before the concert.

I see no mention of it yet, but there's a new PV for Invader Invader, which we've heard before, briefly.



This is cute, but not her best.

It's just so-so all around. PV's cool and got a lot of effects, but it's really just one or two set peices. The song is clearly all chorus and I won't be a part of it.

Kyary's new PV I like it, but I don't know how ear-wormy it is quite yet.

Isn't Kyary supposed to be coming to the Us again? I heard my Japanese teacher and a few other people mention it I think.

Yeah, but I don't know that dates are out. She's hitting the same general locations as last time I think.

Dates are out and I think I've heard they're pretty much all sold out already. You can google her and the tour dates should show up on the right.
