Kitty Guys birthday event~!!

[fencer_x]

Me next to tayles and later_uk (with other members of our awesome group cut out D:) after the SUPER AWESOME FUN KG BIRTHDAY STREET LIVE!

There were at least 100 people there, probably more, and it was a blast having all the guys together for the first time. They did a bunch of the usual songs, talked a little, and even acted out the first 5 minutes or so of their recent performance of Mizuno Puma *_____*

The foreign fan faction definitely had QUITE a turnout XD lavenderlilly, her sister, umbrellaofdoom, tayles, later_uk, and daiki_dansu + me. We got to talk to all the guys, get autographs, etc (except for Sue, the Leader, because he's in Samurai Mode and had to hoof it to the theater after the performance since today was also Samurai Mode's senshuuraku XD;;;)

As such, I was finally able to get almost EVERY MEMBER'S SIGNATURE (except for Sueyoshi, like I said):



Leader I'll have to corner some time in the future, and then it'll be complete ^_~ The guys waited around for over two hours after the show to talk to fans, with Gaku being the very last one left, because as other members took their leave the girls who'd been hanging around THEM got in HIS line. HAHA. OOPS.

I talked to some of the guys for the first time today (Kuma, Kuri, and Yasu)--and it never bowls me over how NICE they are. Geez. Always smiling, always eager to do anything you ask--take a pic, sign something, do anything, and always so, so thankful that you came, no matter who you are. I'll miss them when they're as big as *pnish* ;_; Not that *pnish* doesn't show thanks to their fans--it's just a COMPLETELY different experience getting to be this close to these guys at this stage.

Tuti, Nagayan, Eiji, Daiki, Wasshi--you can't just take a pic with them at random, or talk to them after the show for 15 minutes when there's a line of others waiting. But these guys you still can for now, so it's really an experience I hope more people get to share in before they move too far up.

After the street live, Kuma, Kuri, and Tachibana all headlined a birthday event over near Shinjuku-gyoen-mae, which was in a teeeeeeny-tiny bar, but was ALL KINDS OF FUN. I'll post more about it later after I've recovered, but it was mostly them showing a video Gaku'd made of all this footage collected over the past year showing KG's growth as a group, was really awesome.

After that they took of their shirts and were sexy. Seriously XD Half-naked kickboxing was had, and it was good. And the auction!! The guys decided to have a charity auction, and all donated something of theirs to be auctioned off to the group gathered there today, with all proceeds going to China and Myanmar.

Some of the goods were Mizuno Puma related (a rubber chicken which had featured prominently went for 630yen, while the heart vase the guys are all holding in the pamphlet pics went for closer to 3000 IIRC the most expensive item that day was the wedding ring Kuri's character wears--9000yen). Kuma donated a tumbler he'd used in BuriMyu rehearsals (cue fangirling from everyone because that meant INDIRECT KISS WITH KUMA), Kuri donated his rubix cube, signed and everything, Bana donated an old alarm clock his grandfather had given him when he first moved to Tokyo, Yasu donated a shirt he wore to rehearsals almost every day XD;;;; Sueyoshi donated this reggae cap he wears all the time, and Iwashita donated his "mascot" stuffed character.

Also, since Iwashita's in rehearsals for D-boys stuff right now, he'd mentioned the auction to the guys there, and none other than YANAGI KOUTAROU himself donated this black cap he's apparently been wearing for years. Who got it? OUR OWN later_uk. How much did she pay for it? 2000YEN. IS THAT NOT A STEAL OR WHAT? Apparently KG fans aren't really D-boys fans :DDDDD

And then Gaku...donated the hand-made t-shirt his character had worn in Mizuno Puma (complete with Puma logo and everything, hand-made).

Who bought it?

...

..........




...what? I LIKED THE SHOW. IT WAS A REALLY GOOD SHOW, THAT'S WHY I WENT 6 TIMES. GIMME A BREAK. I'M NOT CREEPY. Despite the fact that I now have in possession two shirts and one jacket designed by a man I don't really like, and something he's sweated in. Eew.

Well, it'll look nice hanging up on my wall. I DID want some piece of Mizuno Puma memorobilia, and this is 2 birds with one stone :D I can already picture the convo now...

Gaku: "So, how much did my stuff sell for???"
Kuma: "I don't remember, but...some really weird foreign chick bought it o_O"
Gaku: "........................shelovesme♥"

DEAD FROM TOO MUCH FUN TODAY. GOING TO BED. MORE UPDATES LATER.

FYI... that above comment was me. Why, oh why do I forget to check if I'm logged in or not?

Sounds like you had a super time though, now that I've had a chance to read through your post. Keep on toying with Gaku's emotions enjoying yourself over there ;)

Damn, I am still so sad I had to leave before the end of the street live! ;___; Especially after I saw all those group pics in their blogs! Not that I would've been able to even SAY anything to the guys had I stayed around to chat, but still... But at the very least, I was able to walk away with some pretty decent video of a few of their songs.

Glad you were able to find the place where the birthday event was. Sounds like fun! ^__^

XDDDD Gaku's post was the first thing I saw on my flist this morning, and I have to say... It was pretty damn awesome, seeing you guys in there~~ ^_____________^

I also notice that you don't mention how much you paid for the shirt. >;D

[fencer-x.livejournal.com]

I actually just forgot XD it was definitely one of the bigger sales >_> 6000yen.

Hi Hi! Ok, after freezing up a few times the Megaupload page was successful...I think. ^_^;;; Sorry for the wait! I totally passed out while waiting for it to just be good and finish (since I didn't want to start again from scratch). I probably did something wrong since this size isn't MUCH smaller than the original file size, but I hope it's ok. Thanks for helping me with this!!! Oh, and DAMN I took a lot of Kuri pics ><;; Umm...but they're nice? And he was soooooo kind and hot and, well, you understand, ne??? Stupid battery dying, tho...
