Sat 29 - lolita shopping in shinjuku > harajuku > trick or treat event in shibuya
john left in the morning to meet up with family friends and i derped in our room, too sleepy XD;;;;
eventually got ready around noon and headed out for lolita shopping in comfy loli clothes----(a few old ladies stopped me on the way asking why i was so frilly lol they were nice tho lol)
started with shinjuku...this station confuses me every time OTL it's such a busy and crowded city!!

penguindrum---X3 it's based on shinjuku so here's the platform used in the anime 8D 運命の乗り換え!!
i went to closet child and bought a babyssb onepiece and some accessories. got some candy as a halloween gift XD ran out of time to go to marui one (> <) (i went later on tho)
then headed to harajuku, takeshita street, it was super crowded OTL

i went to the big daiso to get stuff for family and then to closet child again. bought a few accessories X3 peeked into bodyline but it was packed with ppl shopping for halloween stuff lol
hurried over to shibuya for trick or treat! crammed all my shopping into a station locker---i had to stalk the area for awhile before there was an empty one /lucky
i dont really go to shibuya so it was confusing at first, but i found a few ppl dressed up heading in the right direction so i followed them lol. stopped by konbini and got onigiri and pocari sweat cuz i didnt have time to eat XD;;;;

trick or treat halloween party ticket. it was 5000yen + 500yen mandatory drink charge
guests: jaja-ren, kokusyoku sumire, aural vampire, torihada minoru, takarano alika (ali project)
ever since i started lolita (so 9yrs ago) i always wanted to attend this (;w; )

i got good tickets so was able to get in without lining up----i got to stand 2nd row, right in the middle 8D but the guy in front of me had a huge hat on + girl diagonally in front of me kept dancing parapara-ish and her arms were in the way...死んじまえっ!!

the way it worked was a guest performed (maybe 30-45 min?) and there was an equally long waiting time for them to clear and set up...the event lasted for 6-7hrs and i was standing the whole time OTL super tired!!!!!

in between, raveman and kanchou DJ-ed and the crowd danced, went to sit, got drinks etc. the guests also had booths and were selling merchandise when they werent performing. i didnt want to lose my good spot so stayed standing the whole time OTL
1) JAJA-REN
誰だよ!www i didnt know who they were XD;;; visual kei stuff...the vocal was funny but all i can remember is that he had short legs XD;;;;
2) KOKUSYOKU SUMIRE

kya---sacchan yukachan!!! they were so pretty (*u* ) they wore the same outfits from "gekko renka" X3
1. Lascia Ch'io Pianga - (;w; ), i didnt think i would ever hear this live---it was beautiful.
2. Junketsu wa Aka - the knocking and opening the door were done on the violin (*u* )
3 & 4...new songs i dont know and cant remember anymore
5. koufuku na oujo sama - i was so happy they played this, it's like the ultimate lolita courage wolf song lol XD
6. towa ni uruwashiku sumire no hana yo - just beautiful, it was amazing and did the clapping sequence with other fans XDDDD

i was super happy to be able to hear 1, 5 and 6 (;w; ) my favorite songs <3 yuka chan's voice was strong and the vibrato was nice---i think they sound much better live than the CDs.
the MC was really cute, invited the audience for a scary and little-bit-cute halloween party, as well as complaining about how they were really supposed to be in europe but the organizer ran away XD;;;;
* sexy dancer time*

a bunch of dancers in sexy halloween costumes came out and danced XD
3) AURAL VAMPIRE

they performed with a band this time!
3 sexy silent hill nurses came out and danced, 1 of them took off their mask and it was exochika sama!!!! she started singing right away and it was amazingly cool (*u* )
1. shounan zoku - SO COOL (*A* )
2. nemurenai kara okane wo kazoeru
3. freeeeze!! - <3 <3 <3 i love this
4. the repoman
5. new song - omg a new song being performed for the first time ever XDD they still havent given it a title so they'll take suggestions on twitter XDDDDD i was lucky----

exochika sama nurse was so cute <3 raveman was a plague doctor and they said he worked on the mask so he can talk more normally...but he ended up sounding muffled and no one really understood him XD;;;;
* sexy dance time 2* this time with more dancers and longer dances. also a magician performed near the end.
4) TORIHADA MINORU
comedian, a lot of racist and inappropriate jokes XD;;; it was kinda funny but i was more irritated at this point from all the waiting and wanting to see alika sama XD;;;;
5) TAKARANO ALIKA (ali pro)

キタキタキタキタ━━━(゚∀゚≡(゚∀゚≡゚∀゚)≡゚∀゚)━━━━! ALIKA SAMA ALIKA SAMA!!! XDDDD
...mic malfunction!!!!! the bgm played and she was singing, but the mic broke XD;; fortunately, i was in the 2nd row so heard her singing (*A* ) so beautiful---
she had to go back stage, staff fixed it, came out again and sang XD;;;; afterwards, she stated "they told me if there was a problem, someone will come out and fix it right away but no one came to help me so i went back" LOL
1. hakua byoutou - didnt think they'd do a .hack song (*u* ) it was beautiful
2. troubadour
3. Oumagajou no Hakushaku - she explained the storyline of the song and told us to imagine a beautiful european castle..."not the cheap disneyland ones, but it will suffice i guess" lol
4. Arabiya Layla Gendan - drag queens olive san and lalamy san came out!
5. God Diva - OMG!!! my fav alipro song!!! (well actually, cant choose btw seishoujyo but STILL!!) i was stoked----i kept wishing she sang it at scon but now i finally heard it live (*U* ) she sang it a lot in her recent concerts so there was a big chance she'll play it at T or T too X3 all-my-happy
6. Peony Pink - wow wow wow (*A* ) awhile ago she said she'll prob never sing shiro-ali songs again, but later hinted she might break that vow on halloween and HERE IT IS!!! she said it's been 18 yrs since she sang it live XDDDD it was super cute----あちゃもやに咲いたー♪ (achamoya...when it's supposed to be asamoya, 朝もや lol)
7. Ankoku Psychedelic

alika sama dressed as a bloody medusa, but she said it looks more like a snake queen lol X3
half way, she threw off the frilly + cage part and became a bit sexier---8D
the drag queens also had little jack o lantern pails and threw candy X3 i caught one with my forehead lol 8DDDD
the host, kanchou (pictured here with exochika sama), came up on stage to talk and also had a moment of silence for the earthquake and tsunami victims. after that, everyone raced to the stage to get pictures with kanchou, while i raced to the exit to the kokushoku sumire booth XDDD
got there just in time and bought a few old rare photos----(i have a few for sale here) sacchan offered to autograph it and called yuka chan over too X3

took a photo together too X3 chatted before they had to run onto stage again---they were so sweet X3
remembered i never used the drink coupon so quickly got grapefruit juice before leaving
it was past 11:30 so i hurried home----shibuya was filled with ppl in costumes heading to club events, kinda felt odd cuz it was still the 29th

saw a bunch of foreigners dancing and jumping on the platforms, the police came and asked them to calm down lol XD;;;;;
made it back to ueno before the trains stopped running and bought dinner while walking back X3 (spaghetti at konbini, it was pretty good :3)
my legs were dying from all the standing but it was worth it to see kokusyoku sumire, aural vampire and alika sama at the same time XDDDD

How I miss Aural Vampire! They performed here in Brazil and I could watch them from the first line and touch Exo-chika-sama's hand and get an autographed cd *fanboy spazz*
You are really nice dressed *O*
I wish I could watch any performance of Peony Pink again. I couldn't even imagine she could choose this song these days @@;
anyways, thanks again ^^
