Gero's tour day in Kumamoto! Since it's only a one day thing (yesterday was Fukuoka) It's a special setlist with a mix of both originals and utattemita songs! There was a very special guest (A Kumamoto local!!) that was hanging around downtown all day, talking to anyone who could find him~ I myself passed by him at Starbucks and near the venue as opening crept closer but I was too shy to say anything...... He was always surrounded by fans and laughed a lot though!! So sweet~
  • I loved shayou and baby music rider Most
  • he was seriously so cool during baby music rider lmaoooo ikemen
  • during udon he started singing the donki jingle and had us sing too
  • for kimi jyanakya dame mitai, he said it's a difficult song while walking over to puyo, tuen when he started he did the asian man squat and just stared at him so he messed up and they had to restart…. except it took them forever cuz they kept laughing and talking
  • Then when they finally got to start, whoever was working lighting spotlighted only puyo and gero started laughing saying that was unfair LOL but they safely continued the song
  • for beloved survival, he said he'd sing it as a Native and then just spoke all the english words…….… it was hilarious tho, especially mixed in with the japanese parts that he sang normally
  • he talked about how he's still here because of all of us, and that there's many people before him who have left and moved on (except for dasoku
  • he said "faneru-sensei" came to watch and that he was free to come out at any time but he never did……..
  • there was a festival going on downtown today and people tried to tell him the name hut he purposefully kept pronouncing it wrongly loool
  • apparently because of the festival they couldn't find accommodation for the night so they needed to head back to fukuoka to stay
  • apparently the drums started super early in the morning and woke them up… gero showed us his face as he opened the window to check what the Hell was going on
  • he sweated so much he said it looked like someone peed……. staff went in to wipe it up
  • he asked if there were people from? saga? and there were about 10 so he said he'd try to find a venue that fit 10 people
  • Some people even came from hokkaido!! He was like, "Hey, can I ask you something? …..Why??" and someone replied that it's because he wouldn't go to hokkaido LOL
  • He said he'd find a hokkaido venue for 6 people
Encore
  • he told us to take care of ourselves if we don't feel good and mentioned piko;;
  • pasta had bandages on his elbow cuz he fell off his bike recently…. he said he thought he was gonna die
  • he said he became a youtuber recently and asked the band what they watched on youtube….. the drummer said he's an otaku sk he watches vtubers
  • gero told us he actually got approached to become a youtuber and he had 0.000001% interest but he still wanted to know what they wanted him to do (i didn't catch the answer)
  • pasta said he watches quite a bit of nikuchomo and everyone cheered
  • he said he got recognised at the local convenience store as gero from nikuchomo
  • he also mentioned that kony gets recognised a lot
  • He talked about how meychan went to buy CDs from him at comiket when he was in middle school, and how they got closer and ended up wanted to do something together, which is how nikuchomo came about! but they didn't want to just be "two nii-sans" so kony was brought in too
  • during fire flower he got us to sing weird things as usual
  • He also tried to do the Native Pronunciation here and it took forever for them to start the song LOL we all laughed so much and he was in tears
  • he singled out one guy and told him he must harmonise with everyone else and asked him to sing a super high note and the guy actually had such a good voice LOL he surprised everyone
  • he talked about how all the xyz members do such cool MCs and how he wants to do it too, but since his name's gero everyone would just look at him weird
  • gero said he gave the okay to go out and so he brought faneru out and everyone cheered SO LOUDLY many people cried
  • he took one look at him and laughed and said he tanned too much and then faneru covered his face and slowly knelt to the ground, embarrassed
  • gero mostly talked for faneru (he had no mic) but at one point he said something that made faneru take the mic from him cuz he Needed to dryly reply to whatever he just said
  • apparently when faneru saw the setlist he talked about how nostalgic it was
  • everyone wanted him to sing fire flower but gero told us "this guy doesn't remember the words at all"
  • then, he looked thoughtful and said, "maybe you still know scissorhands….?" and the look of panic on faneru's face was incredible LMAO when gero turned to him and saw how he was reacting he said "okay let's stop i feel bad for him"
  • they talked about how he appeared in nicorai (Kagoshima?) and sang spice, but since no one knew what he looked like the audience was super confused at first, but then they announced it was faneru and the surprised cheer slowly built up into a wild roar as it began registering in everyone's heads
  • There were a handful of people who were present at that nicorai event!! gero laughed and called them old
  • he kept calling him "fakkun"
  • They mentioned how he's using a new name and laughed about it.... :') he said that for social media he's using that name (because SNS is scary?)
  • He said they wanted to drink all night but since he has to head back to fukuoka he can't :(
  • when he let him go to talk to us again, faneru shuffled slowly off to the side but never really left, so when gero noticed he was still there he called him to take a bow with them….. they both stepped onto the platform and the sound from the audience was incredible
  • before he left the stage he reached down and high-fived as many people as he could!!
It was so worth flying all the way there and I'm sure everyone felt the same....! People either left the venue completely energized and amazed at gero's power, or... bawling... LOL but they were happy tears~ It was a really good time, and I really enjoyed the opportunity to visit Kumamoto again!!
