TegoMass no Ai - 2nd Live Concert DVD Review

For those who have not got this, please watch it!!!

i LOVE TegoMass, but even i have to admit that their 1st Live - TegoMass no Uta, was rather lacking ... but of course the performances were top-notch, but the documentary was like ... *drums fingers*

BUT!! i'm glad to say that their 2nd Live - TegoMass no Ai was absolutely, wonderfully, amazingly, splendidly EXCELLENT hahahaha ^_^

The performances were again, really really good. i mean, this is TegoMass we are talking about.. Voices that place a stupid smile on your face and harmonies that make you swoon. And lets not forget the cute factor that follows them everywhere ;) i mean, look to the right (for their pics haha)

My favourite performances were Chu Chu Chu, Hajimete no Asa, Hanamuke, the more adult sounding Ai Ai Gasa... the encores Yoru wa hoshi wo nagamete okure, Kiss and the new song Ai no naka de.

From my experience of the 1st Live, i was expecting a laid back and kinda boring documentary... but NOOOooooooo! i found myself giggling at first, then laughing, and laughing, and then laughing somemore till my stomach hurt XDDDDDD

What with Tegoshi "bullying" Massu backstage with his guitar playing, until Massu "cried".. and Massu singing Tegoshi's 'Kesenai' - starting the song so beautifully, forgetting the lyrics halfway, and coming up with his own lame lyrics.. and all this time Tegoshi was eating his peeled banana with a straight face. I can still hear Massu's "Ahhh ahhhhhhh *goes out of tune*" LOL!

I also loved the part in Nagoya, where Massu surprises Tegoshi with his VERY VERY belated birthday present. Tegoshi's reaction was so funny to watch XDDDD Massu gave him two slices of cake at first, followed by the very Tegoshi-like presents ... a striped black and grey singlet with a hot pink skull at the side, a black t-shirt with a gold skull and silver studs around, and last but not least... a very real looking black skull ornament HAHAHAHA the way Massu apologizes and makes up for his mistakes is just too cute ^_^ please dun forget Tegoshi's birthday present again LOL

And lets not forget the 'Chu Chu Chu' dance .. oh gosh, i'm starting to crack up just thinking about it. The dance steps alone are hilarious, and Massu's "slow motion" is FABULOUS. even his "fast forward" is absolutely brilliant. Then, slow motion Massu has a machine breakdown and Tegoshi launches into a fantastic "machine recharge mode" oh man hahahahahahha. To top it all off, during the slow motion at the word "heart", Massu did an inspired Lion King rendition, with all the raising of Simba action, animal sounds and hitting of the konga hahahahaha MAGNIFICENT XDDDDDDDDDDDD

Even though they would not want to admit it, but TegoMass has this "fail" factor that endears them to the ladies and is what makes them so cute ^_^ hmmmm although it seems like Massu is the one that keeps failing, and Tegoshi either follows, plays along or laughs at him hahahaha. i mean, who starts Chu Chu Chu with the chorus immediately?? XDDDDDDD

I must say that their MC has also improved tremendously, much better than last time. i think that they just need to find their groove, which seems like Tegoshi is the interviewer and he prompts Massu to tell some of his funny stories.

During their last concert before the Yoyogi encores, TegoMass actually cried (well, Tegoshi teared and Massu wept), promising that they would be back once again and thanking everyone for their support. i was really touched that they appreciated not only the fans so much, but also the chance to be TegoMass and the opportunities given to them through TegoMass. and even though we Chinese have a saying that a real man sheds blood and not tears, i beg to differ. i actually find men who can openly weep and show their emotions or vulnerability (of course not all the time), very very adorable and attractive. captivating even ^_^

so i've had my TegoMass fill for the first half of the year, with Aoi Bench and TegoMass no Ai concert dvd... now its time for NEWS ... even though Ryou and Shige are having their summer dramas ... but since Pi has finished his solo tour, can we have like 3 consecutive singles (i mean if Kanjani8 can have it, why can't NEWS) and an album maybe, and lotsa concert venues!!!
