This post is full of spazz, lacks coherency, fails at redaction and it’s written in bad EnglishYOU HAVE BEEN WARNED
I couldn’t sleep that night, I was too anxious too nervous, I haven’t eat anything because when I’m nervous I can’t eat. I was at a friend’s house, waiting…just waiting, He was nervous too and I was in constant movement (I can’t stop moving my right leg when I’m nervous) which made him even more nervous. Sometimes we were in silence the storm outside hitting the city as company
At 3.40 AM, we leaved heading to the theater, there is no public transport such as buses or subway so early in the morning so we started walking… we walked 8 blocks until we actually took a taxi.
We talked with the taxi driver he asked some things about Miyavi and laughed when we answered all his question in synch xD
We were at the theater at 4.26. There were already 20 persons, they all slept there. Or just stood there not sleeping like we did the rest of the night. The rain companied us, and we made some friends, like 2 girls that traveled like 1000 km to see Miyavi. We chatted and chatted then I realized it was 6.30 am, the public transport now was able for those fans that didn’t have other options and the line was becoming looooooong
The organization wasn’t perfect and there were some problems in the line, for example there were 20 persons in front of me when I arrived, those persons became 89, because people started making space for their friends (and those friends did the same for their friends, only that not where I was in the line because the police helped us) later to stop that, they marked numbers on our hands I was 90! 90 of 2000!!!
Other problem was when they reversed the direction of the line… that’s when 30 persons got in the line without being seen. I hated them with all my heart. They were the same persons that didn’t stop squishing us inside the theater. There were other problems when part of the wall next to the line fell (don’t know if it was an accident or just fans being stupid) and when a TV program that almost every Jrock lover hates showed up to interview some fans ( we managed to make them leave) And of course the lack of bathrooms (thank you Copec.. thank you mall , what would have been of me without those bathrooms) and…
THE RAIN, it rained and rained and rained, I usually love rain but I wasn’t too happy. I mean.. I couldn’t freely sit on the ground and umbrellas aren’t practical in these cases. they’re dangerous objects
I can’t remember the exact time, but around 3.00 PM Miyavi arrived….in a van… a mass of people…more like a sea of fans ran and crushed against the grating (we kinda broke it ) and there it was… MIYAVI …. I couldn’t see when he stepped out of the van I was trying to get closer. But I saw him walk inside the theater, he was wearing a hat and sunglasses and wow… he was beautiful.
I don’t even have to say that we all were screaming . Miyavi couldn’t be seen anymore but we knew he was there so we start screaming his name in one voice… “Miyavi!!” “queremos a Miyavi/we want Miyavi” and other things. Then we started singing what a wonderful world so loud as we could. And we were recompensed when Miyavi waved to us from the inside. After that we went back to the line (we already had numbers to enter)
I tried to eat breakfast and lunch but I was so nervous I ate only a little, the necessary not to feel bad later.
The line start moving at 5.50
5.55 we entered running I made a little stop to buy goods and I got the bad news… USD75 the hat I wanted .. and with prices like that you can imagine, it was almost the price of my ticket! I didn’t have the money , so I ran to VIP forcing myself not to worry about the goods… the gave us a CD (it said AQUA, this is important later )while running as fast as we could I don’t know how that was possible.
So I was there, in front of stage…people keep gathering around the stage. I saw the stage, and I was 2? Maybe less meters from it…. and I realized where I was… and what I was going to live… I started crying hysterically. So I look around and there was a girl I’ve talked to in the line… she saw me too and we hugged and cried together. But we didn’t have more than a minute for that because the people behind us start pushing the mass, everyone wanted to be as close as possible to stage. 2 minutes later the heat was almost unbearable, and people started fainting I’m tall but people that were shorter than me had difficulties breathing. In less than 15 minutes we were soaked in sweat, and didn’t help the fact that there were people wearing like sweater or jackets because of the cold outside, but even if we were being squished we managed to help them to take off their jackets and pass them to the security guards. But it was only like 6.20? And time went so slowly… so me and my cousin started talking to others in VIP, in front line (in front of me) there were 3 boys we talked and complained together and they helped us and we helped them so no one had problems breathing.
And we waited… we waited in anxiety… people screaming Miyavi non stop or “queremos a Miyavi!/we want Miyavi!” and other things that were lol-worthy , for example, I don’t know is she was a “sonidista”(don’t know the word in English) but boys in the crowd seemed to love her xD… they started screaming “rica!!!” every time she appeared on stage preparing things before the show started ( rica could mean hottie in english) there was a bald guy too, when he passed by on stage people started yelling “PELAO RICO!” ( I don’t even know if this has an equivalent, but it was so funny( pelao means bald and rico, hottie as I already said) he laughed it off with a confused look xD..ahhh the security guards gave us water too, I think that that what saved lot of us from fainting
Hito (noix producer) walked on stage… said that the CDs that we had in our hands ( I lost mine later ;__; ) was a single of a group called AQUA, and they were going to give a concert in October (what a birthday gift for me ahahaha). And he introduced us the vocalist, I can’t recall his name he was shocking thin , and his cheek bones…strange. But he was so cute, we loved him! And he seemed so happy hearing us screaming for him I’m definitely going to see them. We yelled that we wanted him to sing for us… but he didn’t, he did run from side to side and looked happy and fjkghdfkj he was cute xD. Its fun because like no one knew him but we are all going to see his band xD
After that, he said bye threw some CDs to us and left ….…
Then it happened, the background music stopped (and I started crying again) people started screaming, lights dimmed… the kavki boys + DJ. were on stange. . you know.. Tyco didn’t come to Chile )= … then a figure walked onto stage… wearing the same outfit as his promotion posters videos etc, umbrella and fan included… the crowd knew it was Miyavi and I thought I would end deaf (not aphonic because I was in such state of shock that I was unable to emit any sound..I think I almost forgot to breathe) . He was there… MIYAVI… the one I’ve admired , loved, for so long… always thinking that seeing him live was just a dream… HE was IN FRONT OF ME, looking exactly as I thought he would be… HE was IN FRONT OF ME… in my country, for the very first time in South America… I was going to witness something unique. Something big. Something to be remembered (I CRIED AND CRIED)
His staff placed that paper thing in front of him (people never stopped screaming) and a white light behind him showed us his silhouette that gorgeous silhouette. At that time I recovered my voice and screamed and screamed and screamed I didn’t stop to think, breathe or anything, the only thing that mattered was that Miyavi had started his show, JPN PRIDE was being played and we started jumping (while screaming) Miyavi started his kabuki dance everything was perfect.. Except for the fact that the crowd was a human wave behind us almost killing us but no one cared.
After that everything is confuse xD
I remember that some details on his guitar aren’t like real stickers but pieces of paper with transparent adhesive tape something like that, my description is just what they looked to me
Miyavi is a teaser, he teased us the whole show, I could see his amused face every time we cried and screamed hysterically when he lifted his shirt and touched himself, when he smirked , when he stuck out his tongue, any movement was celebrated. And he loved it
When he put his hand inside his pants (he did it more than once) I tried to scream but couldn’t, I was like… inside my own little world where only existed Miyavi touching himself THERE… (the other times he did that, it was practically the same, I went blank, Miyavi overdoses are like that)
He laughed with us, twice he got closer to the front lines. The first time he did it like far from were I was (center ) but the second time he did in front of us, and he looked directly to us, we could see his eyes, grey(?) contacts… his make up, his teeth, he smiled and laughed, we laughed too …and he laughed with us looking Directly. To. Us. I felt a connection… I can’t describe the feeling.
He played kabuki danshi, kimi ni monkey vibration, hi no hikari no sae todokanai kono basho de
I can’t remember if he played Boom-hah-boom-hah-hah after or before the DJ mix—well I’m not really sure of which song was played after what song and I think he played after the dj mix … V-ROCK, 2 be wiz U, aho matsuri, are you ready to rock, 21st Century tokio blues :/ hmmm
The DJ mix was awesome, everyone jumping dancing in like 20 cm² per person xD, I can’t bring to mind all the songs in the mix but there was pop is dead, and kimi ni negai wo and people went even crazier when we catched the “1, 2, step. step by step” of señor señora señorita , and I think it’s because that song’s title is in Spanish xD. We danced and danced. People around me stepped on my poor feet and I stepped on theirs… the DJ was remarkable… gotta know his name. And he was incredible cute too!!, he’s probably Chile’s favorite now.. though I love Saro.. He danced the whole show… it was amazing… he has limitless energy and he has a good connection with the public, he’s so cute and special and so happy awww I love him ♥. But now I love the DJ too…besides his almost or actual (not sure) kiss with Miyavi left us, fanservice lovers more than satisfied….and dysphonic. After that break Miyavi was wearing different outfit and those sunglasses that gave him a “HA!” attitude
Miyavi did anything to make us feel loved, when some fans threw a Chilean flag to stage, he took it and started dancing with it, he rubbed it against his body and he even kind of put it inside his pants (and that’s so metaphoric… we all were in Miyavi’s pants lol ) … the crowd was hysterical seeing Miyavi our idol with our flag. It meant so much for us Chilean fans. He finished that song rising the flag left to right instead of right to left, but it was a detail plus he did rise other correctly later. We were so damn happy to see him with Chile’s flag
He also did all those ala Hendrix movements, and played like a child high on sugar as always… there were like big black boxes at the sides of the stage, he got on top of them and played his guitar laying down. He put his guitar behind his back too, playing…. And when he licked his guitar …OMG…FANGASM… I realized the VIP ticket was a good inversion… I could see his saliva… that trail of saliva connecting his sexy tongue and that awesome black guitar
Aho matsuri …everyone dancing like idiots (isn’t it the song about that xD?) I regained a little of energy... I don’t know how I had so much energy because I haven’t eta properly… but I’m happy I didn’t fainted
Someone threw him a scarf rolled up, (fans kept on throwing gifts the whole show) well at least was something soft … and IT HIT HIM!! we were all like “8O OHHHHHHH” so he pouted, covered his face with an arm and ran to the opposite corner of stage “crying”. SO DAMN CUTE!!! Then he came back and laughed, took the scarf and kissed it. I’m sure that made the fan who threw it feel better after the “damn, I hit Miyavi D:”.
He speak us in Spanish, English and Japanese, half of the people in there have problems with English or doesn’t speak it at all, and it was really hard for everyone to hear him (his pronunciation wasn’t perfect too) so the crowd didn’t get all what he said, for example if I remember correctly he told us “bang your heads” and most of the people there didn’t get what he said in English ) he tried and tried even gesturing it. But just a few did what he wanted us to do :/ (that’s other reason to love Saro, he mimics what Miyavi wants us to do)
He had some sound problems though, he hit his teeth with the mic twice, and even hit the pedal and it fell (not Miyavi..the pedal)… When the cable of his guitar disconnected ( I think it was that, but I’m not sure now) he kicked the guy who was fixing the problem and it was something like 2000 persons: LOLOLOLOL xD
Miyavi knew how to overcome problems during his show his guitar had a problem and couldn’t be heard (some people said it was a string) so he start saying “I cant play my guitar” pouting and shrugging ,caressing the strings with the guitar grabbed in one hand upside down, “I don’t know how to play guitar” then a guy took his guitar to repair it and he asked “where’s my guitar?” “why does he have my guitar? I can’t play without my guitar” and making sad faces and putting CUTE CUTE CUTE, I can’t properly remember the things he said because everyone was screaming so no one is sure of what he did say and I don’t blame them, that moment was TOO CUTE. After that he started ….”dancing” until they gave him the guitar back
The first time he got really close to the front line (so we could touch him) some lucky fans almost took his skirt and belt off, so when he went to the center of stage and 2 persons of his staff helped him with that he did a shimmy shimmy …we SCREAMED…he moved his pelvis ero ero way…WE SCREAMED MORE… then a perverted smiled was on his face (we didn’t stop screaming) and remember that Japanese girl all boys loved? Well he placed his hand on her head and did an impression of a fellatio WE SCREAMED EVEN MORE, I know anyone of any country would have screamed for that.. but in Chile.. last year there was a big BIG scandal because of a video that showed a girl giving head to a classmate, and the boy that was recording says in the video “WENA NATTY”/(good one natty)…and that’s exactly what we screamed xD WENA NATTY!!!
It's one of those things only Chileans could get xD… like when we started singing “mihito rico! Mihito rico lalalalala la lalala la la” …thing that Chilean fans sing to any hot artist we see xD. And they, 80% of the time have no idea of its meaning but smile and look pleased xD Miyavi wasn’t a exception. I wonder if he asked later its meaning or someone told him …. I want him to know what we were singing.
I can’t remember when but he got really really close to the front line again, like stepping on the bodyguards backs, and I TOCHED HIS FINGERS… I know other people touched him ….more…BUT I TOUCHED HIS FINGERS AND I CAN DIE HAPPY NOW
Are you ready to rock… was it like 15+ minutes long? I don’t know and I don’t care. it was perfect.
“what’s my name?” MIYAVII! “what’s my name?” MIYAVI!!! “I can’t hear you!” MIYAVI!!!! “no los escucho!” MIYAVI!!” and every time he considered we weren’t screaming his name loud enough he would shake his head like saying “tsk no no “ and walked to the back of the stage like if he were leaving. When he asked in Are you ready to ROCK “ARE YOU READY?” “I cant hear you “ I was thinking I’m living exactly what I’ve watched in his DVDs… but when I heard him say “no los escucho” instead of “I can’t hear you” I thought no, it’s not the same….it’s even better because it’s ME who’s in the crowd and he’s speaking MY language
Miyavi also poured water on us… now I can say that Miyavi made me wet meaning 2 different things xD yay!! I don’t know if it was part of the show…like planned from before but it could be because the amount of fans that fainted in the VIP zone
Every time I started crying hysterically people would ask me “are you okay?” “really?” “need any help” “ want me to call the security guard?” but I was fine compared to others, I was just being overwhelmed by emotions. I didn’t want to miss a second of his show. So when I felt bad (my cousin’s hair is curly.. so when she was in front of me I couldn’t breathe) I just stepped out of the third line and when I felt better made my way back in
At the encore I expected to see him wearing a different outfit…but I never thought he would show himself wearing our national football (soccer) team shirt! (la roja de todos!!!) Miyavi and number 21 written on his back.. It was too much for us… too much, that act of love to Chilean fans left everyone’s pharynxes bleeding. Seriously I thought I would spit blood, no wonder why my voice is hoarse today… and he looked incredible hot wearing it
He played what a wonderful world… the crowd singing in unison… there was a special aura… the air felt different when he sang that song. Singing as loud as we could crying.…. I can’t describe it sorry, but that was probably the most well-known song for the most of the people there
We wanted him to play Jibun Kakumei… and we started yelling what we wanted, we yelled and yelled “JIBUN KAKUMEI!!!” but he couldn’t hear what were were asking clearly so he asked to the front line and when he understand that we were asking him to play that song he said “I don’t know how to play/can’t remember that song”(not sure sorry) he saw our )= faces and added “for the next time” so our faces became more like :D!!!! ”
Then we started saying “AI SHITERU MIYAVI!” AI SHITERU YO” things like that and making hearts symbols with our hands… he didn’t get what we were saying because everyone was yelling at different times, and half of the people were just yelling “Miyavi” or random things… but then we coordinated and he understand he looked at the crowd with a huge smile on his face we keep on screaming “AI SHITERU!” and then don’t know how or why but the “AI SHITERU” sounded really clear and high and he covered his face with both hands all embarrassed looked to the kavki boys+dj and said “they love me”(still looking embarrassed/happy) and he looked to the front again giggled (still covering his face) and then he said “los amo!, ustedes son bakanes /I love you you’re awesome “ (bakan is a colloquial form to say awesome in chile) and did something like a twirl looking all embarrassed covering his mouth with a hand , IT WAS ONE OF THE BEST MOMENT OF MY LIFE XD
Btw he said other things in Spanish, but he also made a mistake when he tried to say “queria venir hace mucho tiempo / I wanted to come since long time ago” he had difficulties pronouncing tiempo.. he knew the word in English but can’t pronounce it in Spanish it was like “queria venir hace mucho chie…tim..tsie…*laughs embarrassed covering his mouth* … queria verlos hace mucho tiempo!” we fell in love with his cuteness. He said “lo vamos a pasar bien“ at the beginning (we’ll have a good time) , and when he wanted us to jump sometimes he would say “saltando!” instead of “jump!”.
He also asked if his Spanish was good, and I didn’t expect so many people answering “más o menos!/so so!” (so honest xD)
After the “ai shiteru” thing, he played neo visualizm his last song that night… so hyper, everyone dancing, jumping , singing… any problems were outside the theater .. . all that mattered was feel the song… to be absorbed by his music
Then it was over…he bowed ( I started crying hysterically again) and waved goodbye…. It was over.
When I arrived home and I lay down on my bed… all those memories come back to my mind.. it was too much for me. and I puked (water, I hadn’t eat anything in hours)
He said he would come back
I’m waiting already.
That’s it.. sorry for my bad English, but I can’t think/speak/write/correct my mistakes/do anything properly today.
PS: could someone PLEEEEEEEEASE translate this?
