I'm a genuine Japanese female fan, lemme talk to you from behind the language barrier. I went to both shows in Tokyo, was in the front row. Sorry for the long post.
Tokyo Day1 was excellent!
The setlist was the same as before Japan as expected, but their performance was far beyond my expectation. Everything was killer. I thought Alexi might have some problem with his voice, because he skipped the beginnings of the lyrics many times, but actually he was in very good condition. Anyway all the boys looked relaxed, smiled, enjoyed playing on stage. When Alexi was playing solos next to Janne, he stayed there too long....he didn't reach his mic before the vocal part! That was hilarious, made us all laugh.
The audience was so aggressive that they never stopped rushing to the front. The barrier was at our lung height, so it was really hard to breathe. As usual, we were quiet between the songs.
Janne fucked up with his Japanese speech...that wasn't like him at all! (this story continues to day2)
I'm already not sure about that song... maybe Beverley Hills Cop, the band did never stop playing, then Alexi threw his towel toward Jaska to stop him. We all laughed a lot!
The skinny useless security boys couldn't hold the surfers properly, they just drugged 'em down...it hurt my neck.
A girl behind me kept screaming all the time like HENKKAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! JASKAAAAAAAAA! so loudly. She made my ear hurt, but I can't blame her. Cuz I did the same!
Such pain and bruises are all good memories of Bodom shows.
I didn't see a crying man...unfortunately. All men and women screamed to death when Alexi came out on stage, as usual.
Aw, merch was poor.
I saw a towel printed 'bloddrunk' at a regular price. Clearance sale?!
Tokyo Day2 was the peeeeerrrrerfect show! Thank you team for such a great show!
Perfect selist, perfect performance, great atmosphere, everything was beyond awesome!!!! One of my best metal show ever!
When the show started with Shovel Knockout, I went mad with joy!!!! That's my fav song!!!!
I was so lucky that I could help preparing Janne's Japanese speech for day2! Arigato Janne san for the great chance!<3
He made it perfect on stage! We really love his Japanese speech!
HENKKAAAAAA girl was behind me again, my ears were almost broken, but no problem.
Henkka and Roope were playing together at left side more often than day1. While Alexi and Jenne were doing solos, Henkka and Roope did something together, then looked at us and smiled... so adorable.
When the band (other than Alexi) played Van Halen's Jump before Downfall, Roope was killer...it wasn't for the first time for us to see their "Jump", but we're like "OMG, again...Roope's real...lol" He's excellent at playing like Eddy. No one listened to Alexi saying "stop", so he grabbed all his stuff and some bottles of water, and was leaving the stage! XD
By the way, I'm always at Henkka side, and see some women near me always bring some stuff like dolls, flags or something not as gifts but as their spots, keep waving the stuff to him.......I've been to more than 20 COB shows in a few countries, but I think it's Japan unique phenomena.
It'd be better with more bras thrown. Last week I saw only 1 bra for 2 days. In June, just 1 bra for 4 days, too shy isnt it?
I cant thank enough them all, especially K-Man, Henkka and Janne. They gave me very special, unforgettable memories again!<3<3
