Enjoy your six cents.

Eh i'm interested on knowing whose badge that is...

How was the Touhou panel?

I'm expecting to see videos of that uploaded to Niconico.

40-something get? No one cares...

"FREEBIRD!"

>>46
I heard the Touhou panel was a complete disaster. Supposedly somebody (maybe or maybe not the actual person running the panel) got up and just started making fun of the people that showed up. Sounds hilarious though. I wish I'd remembered to go.

>>112
Also the Otakon staff cut him off, kicked him out, told everybody to leave, then closed the room until it was time for the next panel. lol

>>112
>>113

Just makes me happier that I didn't bother with it and spent more time watching the money fly from my wallet.

>>112

I was there and don't remember this or anything like it happening.

>>122
was the panel moved from its original time? this could have come up from a time discrepancy and the fucked up panel wasn't supposed to happen at all. i'm only telling you what i've read on the otakon boards

>>122
>>130
yeah, from here: http://board.otakon.com/index.php?showtopic=15626

"Here's the full story. The touhou panel was already held earlier, no one knew because during the time the information change panel has not been put up at the time.
About half the room got up and left.

They expected Touhou, but what they got was psychology of anime, or something.

But I found out about the Touhou panel from a Touhou cosplayer. I did not missed much, some of it consists of replays of the touhou series."

>>133
>They expected Touhou, but what they got was psychology of anime, or something.

Haha, those poor fucks.

>>113
>Otakon staff ... told everybody to leave
More proof that Otakon is run by nazis. They close a panel because of ONE guy?

I don't know why everyone has such a raging hard on for such a shit con.

>>155
that ONE guy was the person running the panel

>>155
The staff are only "nazis" if you're acting like a total retard. Chances are you're the kind of person that's fucking cancer anyway. Shouting TITS OR GTFO and other hilarious memes in rooms packed full of people really isn't funny.

I bet the band members that are not Masaaki Endoh sure enjoyed signing stuff they haven't been a part of.

nvm, just jealous :(

>>183
Yeah... that, or I want to meet likeminded people and can't stand it when people are faggots and ruin it for everyone.

Anyways, shouldn't you be confiscating yaoi paddles?

I felt kind of bad for the band. you could tell half the audience had never heard of the shit the songs were from.

>>319
I did not go because this would have applied to me.

>>319
I was totally expecting this. But I don't think most of the other concerts went better. (except for Japan, China and Taiwan)

>>1
1GET

>>133

For your reference, that was actually me informing about the touhou panel incident on the otakon boards.

...but the con was great though.

>>319
>>326
Yeah, that was to be expected, pretty much. Out of that terribly small crowd, I bet only 1/4 or 1/5 of the people were real fans. The rest were probably the types who would go see any band as long as they're Japanese. And to those people I say: fuck you. I was in the second row for both the concert and the Saturday panel, and just about everyone I saw at the panel I recognized from the concert. That's how small the hardcore crowd was.

I am still a bit hoarse from singing along at the top of my lungs to almost every song. And I got my copy of Super Robot Wars Alpha 2 signed, so now I can die without any regrets.

But this turnout wasn't nearly as bad as the Momoi Haruko concert at AX 2007, but that's a rant for another time.

>>1
ModGET

>>396
Wat, you can only see a band if you know all their songs?

>>311

Fukuyama just said "AHA, GAOGAIGAR ('-')b" so I guess they don't care. I didn't want to get a Scrapped Princess poster signed.

God, I so wanted to see JAM Project and get their autograpghs!

But I'm on the west coast. And had class the day before. And had a quiz that day. And big projects to work on over teh weekend. And then flights wern't especially cheap due to so mayne people going there. :(

Anyone have a good recording of the concert? :(

>>419
That's not what I meant. What I meant was, a lot of the audience was probably made up of total failures who just wanted to see a Japanese band, and didn't really appreciate the feast of awesome they partook of.

I can't blame the real fans for not knowing all the words to the songs. Like GARO ~Savior in the Dark~. That was probably a bit obscure. Admittedly, I've never watched or played GARO, I just know the theme song. I was kind of surprised to hear that, rather than Voyager or one of the Mazinkaiser songs. I was actually really hoping to hear RISING or Majin Kenzan, but oh well.

>>319

I was totally pissed off that nobody except the center section would FUCKING STAND UP!

Asshats.

I got a ticket, one of the last ones.

I hate Jam Project so I didn't go.

Old Phone is Old.

FUCK YA NEKKI BASARA

My loot (yes I double dipped)

>>689

Snacks has the same phone 8)

>>428
The people in the third row, in front of me, didn't seem to have any idea what they were doing there. When Fukuyama threw the pick they just kind of sat there with it under them until a girl went back a row to fetch it.

I remember that when L'arc played, the entire crowd was sitting then too. I think it has a lot to do with anime convention people just not knowing what the fuck people do at concerts.

And having shit taste in bands, because the Sunday J-rock shows people got five times the people.

>>728
That's why first row for the win.

When the pick fell under the chair I turned back to grab it but the chair flipped and I bang my mouth on it :(

Oh god, I was in the fucking front row, off to the right. I got so much Endou crotch all up in my face, it was amazing.

Sounds like failaudience was fail.

>>732
Also got my shirt signed. Though it would have been fucking awesome to have gotten a ticket to the good signing.

Point is, I got to shake their hands. All that's left to do now is die.

>>658
i hope you stood up anyway. they can goddamn stand if they wanna see.

>>728
Thank you. Do they enjoy concerts while drinking green tea and discusing world politics? I was really wtfing at the people in the wings.

>>743
WHO ARE THESE PEOPLE?!

>>743
OMFG RAAAAAAAAAAAAGEEEEEEEE

Only idiots sit down during concerts. Seriously what's wrong with them. I remember during the concert I turned around to look at the few rows behind me, they were very mellow...the only row that was genuinely excited was the front row center.

>>744

i went to the rave...

>>743
Dear god, has this person never been to a concert before? Right now I am RAAAAAAAAGEing in ways that can normally only be caused by furries and Phil Collins.

>>747
We were going totally crazy in the second row left. Or at least I was. I wasn't paying attention to what the folks around me were doing. But yeah, that was a fail audience. It was made of shit and AIDS.

I lost my phone, so security found it, so dressed as Rinnosuke, with a con gopher in hand, I went to the back of the video game room to the security office to ask the convention center staff if they'd found my phone.

There, I found JAM Project.

They were being talked to by security, and didn't seem to quite get what was being talked about. But they did randomly pull out their passports and said random stuff.

Then as they began to leave, I smiled and waved, still dressed as Rinnosuke. then Yoshiki Fukuyama and Hironobu Kageyama both smiled and waved back to me.

And they were like, 2 feet away.

I'm happy to die now.

>>1
quoting 1 just because it's the only chance to do it in any board, in any chan.

Epic op your post is 1

>>817
You were dressed as Rinnosuke? That has potential to be awesome.
Got any pictures?

Also, you are a lucky fucking bastard for the content of your post. Motherfucking JAM Project... *sigh*

>>428
GARO ~Savior in the Dark~ is one of my favorite JAM Project songs. So they sung it, huh?

I'm about ready to go bang my head against a wall a few times for not being there.

>>1 1 quote

PROTIP: Some people are faggots and don't like JAM Project, giant robots, manly men, etc.

>>817
Nowhere near as cool as the guy who yelled 'BOMBER!' at Fukuyama.

>>921
A couple of us 30 rows back were yelling, I don't know if anyone heard it.

>>921
I think a bunch of us all did. I certainly did as well (both in the panels and during the concert)

We were also chanting BA-SA-RA!

I showed up after the initial line had gone in, so I didn't have the greatest seat. It was still an awesome concert despite the audience. They scared me for a minute holding out on SKILL until the very last minute...

>>1006
It was planned. The translator dude came up to us in the front row and told us that the second encore will be SKILL so it's up to us to keep the encore going as loud as possible for it to happen

>>817
OH FUCK, IT'S YOU.

Lol, even I was excited when you rejoined me and Phil and you told us that. You had a privilege that nobody else had.

JAM always ends with that song.

i am posting on the first thread of /con/

Man, Fukuyama and Makkun were great.

Hell, Endoh and Kageyama spent most of the time just goofing the hell off. Like when Makkun gave this long story about how Kageyama is one of her biggest influences in response to a question, Dani said "Uh, Hironobu Kageyama," then Endoh said it, promptly getting headlocked by Kage.

>>1123

Heh. I'm still really happy about it too.

The whole losing the phone almost completely shot down my weekend, but meeting JAM Project like that along with actually getting my cell back probably places this con as my 3rd best ever out of 6. :b

>>836
You're right. now i have to do it

>>1384
That's incredible haha.
Glad you got your phone back by the way, because that would have sucked to have not found it.

>>1
>>1414

qouted for good measure

>>1232
That panel was awesome. During the "give your best scream for justice" question ("SPARKING!" "GA GA GA, GA GA GA GAOGAIGAR" "WE ARE!") does anyone remember what Masami Okui said for hers?

>>1

and from what I'm hearing this concert was more fail than the t.m.revolution concert back in april.
makkun ;_______;

Europe, they never have this kinda of sh1t:(. Looks really fun

>sh1t

>>1595

"Mazinger ZETTO!!!!" but the first part was too quiet to hear. I recorded it, but I've been posting otakon karaoke on Nicovideo for them to make fun of it instead. I'll try to post it tomorrow, so you can hear Fukuyama say "I already did mine" and the translator messing that up three different times.

>>1674
Awesome, thank you!

did Hironobu Kageyama perform Head-Cha-La from DBZ?
ppl should at least recognize that one

It was epic.

>>1698

yes, and I nearly lost my vocal cords on that one.

>>1698
he led it in with this hilarious, extended intro:
"HERE'S A SONG FROM 1989"
"IT'S FROM A VERY POPULAR ANIME"
"YOU MIGHT REMEMBER IT"
"IF YOU DO, YOU CAN SING ALONG"
"IT'S ONE OF MY FAVORITE SONGS"
"OKAY I'M GONNA SING THE SONG NOW"
"THE NAME OF THIS SONG IS...."
"CHA-LA HEAD CHA-LA"

>>1611
well we already know that anime con crowds suck. but jam really showed a huge amount of genuine love for the crowd and i know i did my best for them because i couldn't talk for hours and my arms still hurt today.

>>1595
I'll have it on youtube in a minute.

>>1783
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LdfmwNPAWBc Its up.

I remember this one guy in the first row who was head-banging in paroxysms of sheer ECSTASY; dude looked about ready to throw himself as an offering to Kageyama.

I screamed myself raw during SKILL.

Fucking. Epic.

either that or they dont care about shitty rock music.

>>1857
your tears they are delicious

>>720
Snacks has an iPhone you fucker.

>>720
>>3162
Both of these posts are wrong.

>>3167
Really? Oh. But moot definitely has one. There's an image of the two of you using them.

>>3186 again, found it.

I went to the concert because one of my roommates wanted to go in hopes of getting head from some stupid slut.
What a fucking horrible racket of noise. You should all be ashamed for liking this bullshit just because it it's japanese LOL.
I left after a couple songs. My ears literally hurt from the mediocrity.

>>3189
oh god!

>>3191

That is exactly why I DIDN'T go to the concert.

>>1232
My favorite part of the panel was when some guy was asking JAM if they were recruiting, and Fukuyama said something like "Yes, we're alway recruiting...I heard Kitadani's getting fired." and Dani let out a huge "EH?!!!!"

>>3191

FUCK YOU NIGGER

>>3214

Yeah I went. The concert was sick. I caught Fukuyama's guitar pick. I got him to sign it because I was one of the people who asked a question at the Q&A panel on Saturday.

>>728
I was the girl who went back a row to get the pick. It was between the chicks feet, and when I jumped back to get it she yelled, "You're fucking KIDDING ME." Then proceeded to give it to my boyfriend (fat guy in the front row who looked like he was about to have a heart attack).

While I'm not a huge die-hard fan of JAM Project, I respect their passion, stood up during the entire fucking concert, and sang the parts I knew.

>>3191
How many rows back were you?

I was there. 2nd row on the right side. I remember everyone in the front center going crazy before the concert and started to sing SKILL. MOTTO MOTTO!!!

Concert was fucking amazing. I nearly came when Masaki Endoh started singing Gaogaigar.

>>1

Quoted because I can.

>>1
Quoted because the man speaks truth. And so I can quote 1.

>>1
I just fucking Came for the Concert
Then almost lost my voice at Cha la Head Cha La Was the front of the Second block of Chairs behind the Camera.

Fucking guard wouldn't let me go to the concert. She's all like where you going? I'm going to the concert! Oh no you ain't! And I said well, is there something wrong with me going to the concert? And she just ignored me... pah what a bitch.

>>4144

Lol hi Krissy.

NO BORDERS


and then i was like, as long as they build a HUGE, LONG, HIGH fence

i had this retard dancing in front of me like he was 5 years old at a wiggles concert
