Arashi @ Taipei

I wish I was Taiwanese, or at least in Taiwan or didn't have school... well I wish a lot of things at the moment but *sigh*. I can't go to any Arashi concerts for probably another 8 years unless they have a concert in my city in Canada, and reading about all these concerts is really getting me excited.


So.. some info about their concert in Taipei which happened October 11 and October 12.

I will update this post whenever I have found something new

Reviews/Reports:






Obviously this concert wasn't as great as their Kokuritsu Concert but it still sounded fun, especially the second day which seemed like a total blast. Bit worried about the mis-communication between Jun and Staff but at least nothing serious happened (thank god). Now to wait another 4 weeks for their concert in Seoul, Korea!


 


When that happens I'll also make a post with review links and other info.


The boys really love to eat Xiao Long Bao huh? Or maybe they just love eating... a mystery why they aren't fat. =P


Really proud of them. ^_^


Well Until Next Concert!
