BabyMetal concert - That's how I appeared in a magazine.

Good Morning everyone, 

 I finally got my Kerrang magazine and successfully uploaded my own video of this concert., And found another great video. Now on, just get comfy, I'll take you to London to the Eventim Apollo, on 23th of february. May you missed BABYMETAL, or want to see again.

 I bought my tickets months before the concert. Didn't even check the parkin options, because I found it was obvious. Why should Eventim Apollo in the middle of London not have a parking area?! High numbers of people travelling here day by day to see concerts and stuff like that.

It turned out there is NON. 

 So, I was forced to buy tickets. We didn't plan it to stay any longer in London that necessary. I wouldn't be surprised getting cancellation message 1 or 2 days before the concert, because of the coronavirus infected woman who were travelling to the hospital by uber. After all I reserved a place in Novotel's carpark. Good to know that, you can pay for only parking a few hours without paying for a whole night in the hotel. I didn't know. They sent a text message with a code for the gate.

 Novotel is about 5 minutes walk, I felt lucky because of my "Lolita" style kimono wasn't thick at all...

 Finally got there, we could't wait to get in and... we could only see a huge queue. Snake-like thick queue was probably the biggest queue I've ever seen. Weird stuff to see, how these 3 tiny japanese girls made a very variable crowd to come and see them live. Oldish rocker men tall young sports looking men, kawaii PJ boys, Cat ears and goth women came. Even small school girls.

『In the queue a man came to me. He asked if he can take a photo of me as he liked my dress. It turned out, he is the cover photograper for Kerrang! magazine, Andy Ford. In the end, they found me again, and asked if I want to answer a few questions about the concert. So that's how I appeared in an english rock magazine. 』

 

 So the starting at 7 means, gates opening at 7... I didn't know. We couldn't miss the support band. Honestly didn't mind. It wasn't the same as Ghost. There; it was clear, everyone came for ghost only.  Noone came in to see the support bands. Here... The crowd visilby became thicker second by second.

 The support band the Creepers was, not bad. I can risk it, some people only came to see them playing not for BABYMETAL. So they quickly start moshing hard... even a poor boy appeared on the stage. I don't know what the hell happened but the girl member of Creepers run under the stage... seemed like she saved him. But we still had the chance for these people to stop moshing under BABYMETAL.

DISSAPOINTING. 

 The crowd went mad, I had a feeling they needed rabies vaccine before the gig, but they didn't get one. They probably came for a sunday fight and not to see these kawaii metal girls. So we got saved out from the middle of fight whilst they still played their first song. A girl fell down the floor near to me...

Later on, they started tossing bear and rubbish. They even hit Moa with a thrown in jumper, it's clearly visible on my records. 

That's the story. Let's see the gig itself. - You can see the guest video HERE .
