On YUI’s upcoming concert...

Yahoo!!! With the help of my Japanese friend, I was able to sell my extra YUI ticket on Yahoo Japan Auction.

And today, I got my arena ticket for YUI’s concert, a chance for me to see her closer :D.

To prepare for the concert, I’m also planning to wear YUI’s Live Life and Love pick necklace :D

SIAM SHADE and YUI Concert Countdown

Few more days to go and SIAM SHADE will perform ONE NIGHT live concert on Nov. 18th while YUI will be having her 1st BIG LIVE concert on Nov. 19th. Both concerts will be held at Tokyo Budoukan, and I was lucky to secure tickets for both concerts. On SIAM SHADE, I’ll be at the 2nd floor South-West No. 48... I chose SW as I believe DAITA usually is on this side of the stadium, I want to see his current gears and also how he uses his pedals during his performance :D. On the other hand, I got my advance ticket for YUI on the 2nd floor East No. 32.

Siam Shade and YUI Concert Tickets

Fortunately, I might have a chance to be on Arena for YUI’s concert as I was able to secure one seat at Arena Block J2 No. 20 and waiting for it to arrive this week. A chance for me to see YUI closer!!! Yey!

Once I got this arena ticket, I’ll be selling my extra YUI concert ticket within this week. So if someone around here in Japan who would be interested, please leave a comment, and I’ll tell you the details.

I’m soooo excited! :D

Tokyo Game Show 2007

It was a blast! I never imagined that the game show would really be crowded with international visitors. According to TGS website the statistics that they expected foreigners to visit was approximately 180,000 people. Whoah!

So anyway what happened? I actually came already late around 3:30PM at the show, due to another exhibit (IGAS 2007) we had at Tokyo Big Sight. My feet really hurts on my way to TGS because it’s been 2 days I have to stand all day, since we began exhibiting at IGAS 2007. But nevertheless, somehow the pain went off when I see the booths from the Game Show. It’s really awesome. I got the chance to take some pictures of it together with their hot game models :). I never had the chance to play the new games as we only have limited time to look around but still its worth it! My friend already got plenty of freebies (also for me) so we just rush on different booths taking some pictures.

Here are few pictures from the event.

WHY by Ayaka

This song was used in Final Fantasy VII - Crisis Core’s promotion video. A game on PSP that was out just yesterday (Sep. 13th). I find the song very nice. It gives more emotion with the FF7’s promotion video. Zack Fair, a 1st class soldier at Shinra and Cloud’s “senpai”/”superior” during early years at Shinra when he’s still a lowly guard would be the focus of the story.

Why by Ayaka (Lyrics)

Inside the eye, there are things that you see and cannot say.
Is there a deeper feeling beneath that heart?
Say that you have obtained everything left in this world with your hands,
Will you still be happy with that?
Why...do you look sadly at the lonely sky?
Why...show your laughing face.
Saying the right words becomes difficult.
Because of your character, I understand.
Was there something in your past?

You so often divert the distant gaze from your eyes.
Alone during the lonely nights, you held on to life tightly.
Did you find any warmth?
Why...Why did you cling to that act?
Why...Let your heart open.
The burden that you carry upon your shoulder,
Makes you able to accept power.
For certain by believing.
Ohh, yeah...
As for the free person being clumsy...
As for the free person being insecure...

Why...do you look sadly at the lonely sky?
Why...show your laughing face.
Saying the right words becomes difficult.
Because of your character, I understand
Try believing...
Why...

Roland VG-99 Demo

An update to my previous post on Tokyo Guitar Show 2007. I had the chance to see and record a demo of Roland’s latest guitar system called VG-99. It is a multi-processor effect as well as a synthesizer. The VG-99 suprised me with its sound processing. The effects, pre-amps and ribbon controller are one of the best. It also has a sensor where you can wave your hand either to control the volume or do other filters of the sound. Here’s the video of the recorded demo:

VG-99 was demonstrated by Mr. Koichi Yabori. For the Tokyo Guitar Show photostream visit this link: Tokyo Guitar Show 2007 on Flickr.
