Finally, back with another exciting week.
Recently, i went to a concert which i have been waiting for the past 2years.
The famously Japanese rock band "OneOkRock".
Its member : Taka (Singer), Ryota (Bass) Toru (Guitar) & Tomoya (Drum)
With its huge music success through a recently blockbuster. "Rurouni Kenshin alive action movie."
To be frank, i didn't get to know this band from the movie.
It was actually from an opening game of
"Black Rock Shooter: The Game" with the song "No Scared".
With the year pass by, this band made a huge success in their music.
Now touring around Europe, USA and finally Asia again.
Waiting patiently for the moment to arrive and finally return after 2 years later
During those 2 years apart, i went through all of their albums and musics.
From old to good and feeling goosebumps whenever they hit the high note.
My favourite songs would be "C.h.a.o.s.m.y.i.t.h , Last Dance, Clock Strike" and many more.
This time round, the concert left me a very good impression and memories.
Let me list down some of the good and bad experience,
Good:
1) The concert venue located at the Fort Canning was totally a good spot. (as the wind blows, I could sit/stand at the back and still be able to see them from far. Unlike the concert at The Coliseum @ Sentosa, it was flat ground, hot, stuffy and hard for an old shorty like me to see their faces
2) There was a increase amount of fans compare to the previous concert. (This time it increase by 4 times more as the venue was almost full house.)
3) The OneOkRock Singapore team pass down a few colour stickers for us to place on our mobile phone flash-light. (It was actually for us to flash out when Taka sings out "Heartache" & "Wherever you are".)
4)The fans and myself were singing to our heart contents, flashing out our mobile phone coloured sticker flash at the same time. (I was crying for the 1st time listening to Taka and every-fan singing to "Heartache" and "Clock Strike".) T.T
5) I think the music were so strong that i believe that people siting around SMU and the National Museum could hear their music. (I dont think it's that far at all.)
6) Taka (singer of OneOkRock) sang both a mixture of english and japanese songs. which is actually totally awesome to me. (Their recent album 35XXXV came in a deluxe edition version which is actually purely english translated music.)
7) For the 1st time, I was head-banging and jumping around at the back like nobody business. Singing my lungs out till it sore so badly right after the concert.
Bad:
1) Toilet were a little bit too far. As the queue goes deep inside the Fort Canning area. (The Closest toilet would be at the National Museum or SMU. Either that, you could just wait till you get into the concert venue.)
2) Well, the merchandise could have given us a wider variety such as maybe, Hoodie or a bag or a towel. But at the moment, they only had t-shirt, stickers and wristband. A true fan will definitely buy more if they had more variety choices of merchandise.
3) Taka asked the fan at the front to create a Circle Pit (running in circle around with the fans) but it wasn't really a big success. (I was at the back hearing a few minority manage to create a small circle pit.)
4) As i admit that i did took out my phone to snap a few of Taka "moment" and keeping my phone quickly once i manage to capture that moment. Seeing a few other videoing away. (Which i have to admit could be a little annoyed because of the blocking of view. I know i know, i did snap, but i did quickly so it won't effect the people behind me.)
5) I had the feeling that the concert was shorter than previous concert. (Maybe its just me. They did sing non-stop and only took a few mins of break before hitting the concert longer again.)

At the moment, i couldn't really think of anything bad. It was the 1st time i enjoyed this concert to the fullest. To be able to see, listen, sing, cry, head-banging and jump from far behind. So much emotions in just 1 concert. Knowing that what i paid for was totally worth it. Totally worth it to the fullest!! One Ok Rock, we may have let you down a little. But we still love you so much!!! Come back to Singapore again!! :D
Now lets leave some photos at the bottom to enjoy that unforgettable concert. :D
