An event for 20+ attendees to drink and listen to utaite sing through the night!! Hosted by Kony again, this time the lineup was alfakyun, irei ryou (rairu), clear, Nero, koma’n, Kettaro, NORISTRY, and Mary! Utamaro, eMu, shack, and Nayugorou started off the “session” part of the event, after the main performances. It got pretty wild as everyone got more and more drunk but we got to see a lot of collaboration and it was super fun!!

I really don’t remember the first hour much;; That was when all the legit performances were done. As the event began, all of the main cast got on stage right away. It seems some of them had already been drinking before the event started! 

  • Alfakyun in particular kept talking about drinking
  • Cleanero did digitaliser
  • KETSUKOMA were in sunglasses and hawaiian shirts and said something about coming back from California? I didn’t really understand what they were talking about but they were pretending to have an american accent
  • KETSUKOMA did what i think was a rootfive song? They danced as they sang and were super good… 

After all those performances, everyone filed onto the stage with drinks in hand! alfakyun was carrying two cups and everyone laughed at her. Kony talked a bit to lead up to the KANPAI but rairu had already nearly finished his drink during that time LOL so fakyun gave him one of hers! We all cheers’d and then there was a break for everyone to get drinks. This is where it gets pretty messy, so I think a lot of what I remember isn’t chronologically correct!!

About half the audience broke from the front of the stage to head for the bar, so i followed along! Outside in the bar area, some of the performers were already mingling. I remember Kony and rairu for sure…. there was kind of a buzz at one point and i turned around to see [redacted] right behind me!! they were being pushed along by fakyun and I think they had one other person in their party? I grabbed a drink and headed back to the stage floor, which had cleared out so much that I ended up getting pretty close!

The session starter crew came in with their drinks and sang a song together as a group, with fu-rin and wing left of the band members. Each of them were going to do solos! I don’t remember who was first, but apparently that group song was what he was intending to sing solo so he had to find something else on the fly hahaha. They ended up pulling out an ipad to help everyone look for songs/lyrics/scores as they sang. One of them sang shoujo rei, which I love a lot, so i was really pleased! I *think* it was eMu? Nayugorou was last (she lost at rock scissors paper and still walked onto stage at first until eMu complained lol). She sang a lovely Metronome and was kind of staggering around because she was already pretty drunk haha

After their performances, they asked if anyone in the audience wanted to come up and sing but only the really drunk people were yelling LMAO so wing said she might be able to get a special guest, if they’re still around!! I don’t know if they’re allowed to be named since another person that ends up singing later on very clearly asked us not to say anything about them performing…… so….. After a few moments [redacted] appeared on the stage, surprising me and the rest of the audience!! They sang 3 rock songs (senbonzakura!!) at full power and was like, “Isn’t this basically a one-man live?!”. There was kind of a commotion behind me and I turned around to nero almost right behind me!! He was cheering and waving his arms around for [redacted] like a fangirl, and then they walked off stage and he was like “huh….? It’s over already???” and looked soo heartbroken LOL….. Some others took the stage: clear, who sat in a chair, and I think nori and rairu? nero kept waving at those two and making hearts….. Then clear went “eh? where’d nero go?” and everyone around me immediately pointed to him hahahahaha I think? they sang? and many people started swapping in and out after that!!

  • One guy that said he was koma’ns drinking friend hopped on stage and nearly did a comedy routine?? he was very energetic! his singing voice was really amazing too!! he sang with two or three others, while koma’n was in the back of the audience area somewhere. 
  • koma'n ended up coming onto the stage with a group of others, but i really needed to pee so i left for a bit! Outside, I saw that a bunch of the performers were just hanging around talking to attendees/friends. I remember seeing Nayugorou in particular, pretty close to the doors. When i got back, I was surprised to see [redacted] on stage with the group that had walked on when I left!!! They had already finished singing and were wrapping up, but I was there in time to see them give a gigantic smooch on the cheek to someone (rairu??) to thunderous cheering.
  • Mary, who had looked pretty nervous for most of the day, showed up at some point and nero got her to sing a very cute kataomoi solo!!
  • Kettaro was pulled into the stage at another point and I think he sang with someone else?
  • Kony sang marunouchi sadistic with a group!!
  • fakyun dueted Hit You 8759632145 Times With This Piano with someone! That person said he thought of a song to sing and told us, “it’s the song wing hates”
  • while someone else was singing, kony did a tequila shot to lots of cheers
  • With the exception of wing, most of the band members were swapping in and out, so a lot of the performers ended up taking over the intruments!! especially all the percussion LOL mary seemed to take a liking to them.
  • During one song, nero played the drums while kony, fakyun, and mary all hit the cymbals and other extra percussion
  • For another song, nero took the bass!!
  • Another well-known bassist (i should know his name but i forgot!!!) ended up climbing onto the stage to play for us a bit.
  • they sang memeshikute again with a big group! maybe this was before the cheers? The people in front of me were actually moving along with their dancing
  • Fakyun was made to sing even though she wanted to go back and drink LOL she kept talking about her umeshuu. Kony wanted her to do tequila shots, so she called out [redacted] to make them take one with her. They ended up singing sakuranbo and kony would chant during the chorus to get them to drink?? She ended up taking two of them and then kony gave one to wing! they caleld fakyun so manly~ and she said she was definitely not appearing again on the stage after this
  • [redacted] pointed out that there seemed to be quite a few males in the audience and did their usual thing with the crowd
  • kony also kept saying mey-chan for some reason, and someone else on stage was like “mary????” but we didn’t really get any clarification because he was so drunk…..
  • [redacted] also sang magnet with nori!!!!! he looked so surprised and excited and starstruck when he was called up LOL THEY WERE SO GOOD……. It was a piano-only accompaniment at that point because everyone else had disappeared…. After that was when [redacted] told us that we couldn’t say they sang tonight and everyone was like ok!!!!

Really random bits:

  • Nero’s hair was super cute for this event… It was like…. a very relaxed look? He didn’t have his usual middle part!! someone (nori?) kept pointing out how cute he was and he was like “that’s embarrassing~” (cute!!!)
  • A lot of them were getting real feelsy with each other as the night went on, probably partially because they needed to support each other so they didn’t trip and fall LOL.
  • mary had found herself a spot at the front of the audience instead of on stage LOL, it seemed like she had friends with her!! One of her friends sang a few lines on stage before passing it off to someone else!
  • nori and rairu talked about how they knew each other a while back and rairu was like half a head shorter than nori, but now he’s HUGE
  • some cleanero fangirls were behind me and got clear to sing fire flower!! it was super fun
  • Two people on stage were chanting the pokeball catching sound as someone made their way to the bass and wing played the “captured” jingle when they got to it
  • nori and rairu seemed to be on stage a lot?? nori seemed to have his wits about but rairu looked pretty dang drunk to me.
  • nori flirted with the audience and all the members a lot??? he kept making cutesy motions and winking and waving. He seemed really popular with the crowd

As it was nearing time to close, only wing, nori, and rairu were left on stage. They tried to find kony for a while and he finally showed up, drunk as hell, and sat down on the chair on stage and looked like he was about to pass out about 75% of the time. rairu finished the drink he was carrying and then mary gave him hers from the audience which he downed immediately. nero also appeared, responsible as ever, and helped with closing!! Kony said it was fine to go until the very last minute (It was supposed to close at 4:00 but the venue was booked til 4:30) because we’d all pick up and leave very quickly, right?? and we all agreed :’) Some people that were still present made some personal announcements, and then kony and nero talked about how they might do something like this again, maybe!! And so, it was the end, and we all picked up and left quickly as per instruction, to catch our morning trains home. 

It was such a crazy and fun experience and I’m really glad I went!! I hope I they do this again sometime~

This was an event focused on popular J-pop songs! The participants even dressed up to suit the part of whatever they were singing and some were pretty outrageous. Hosted by Kony, the performers were Alfakyun, clear, Nero, Glutamine, koma’n, Kettaro, Gero, NORISTRY, and Mary.

Kony had released a partial setlist already so we knew Gero was going to sing Hot Limit and lo and behold, he was first up!! HE ACTUALLY WORE THE OUTFIT with skin-coloured clothes and duct tape HAHAHA it suited him REALLY WELL TBH….. He sang it perfect and did the poses and everything and the audience was going wild, it was super fun!! He really has an energy to him that’s just so infectious.

NORISTRY sang Pop Star and came out in an afro wig and even did some cute dancing!! Alfakyun sang a rockish song and was in this plaid red skirt and thigh highs…….. as she walked out and took centre stage there was an audible gasp and people were whispering “kawaii….” She really was very cool and cute!! She walked out into the platform that was sticking out and everyone cheered! She also sang God Knows…. later on and so, she wore a Haruhi cosplay!! She was like, “I *really* didn’t want to wear this………………” while glowering at kony.
KETSUKOMA came out looking super lame in white T-shirts tucked tightly into their high-waisted jeans…… Wing stepped away from the piano and Koma’n took over!!! …Except he was super dramatic and making gross noises as he played and we could not stop laughing…. They were singing a really slow ballad so they kept being dramatic and fake crying and it did not feel like a slow sad song at all…….

And now for someone else who didn’t want to wear what they ended up wearing…….. Nero……….. He sang Celine Dion’s My Heart Will Go On and ohhhh boy. He walked out in full crossdress and we all lost our shit. A super long curly blonde wig tied in a low side ponytail with a gigantic pink flower, a pink dress, and a frilly white top WE COULDN’T STOP LAUGHING but he sang the song SO WELL it was confusing on my soul??? He called for “Jack” and NORISTRY came out (in normal clothes this time) and did the Titanic pose with him on the middle platform, then was pushed away…. It was very dramatic and I can’t believe nero kept a straight face through all of that.

After all this was some nonstop normal singing!! Clear, mary, and glutamine all came out to do solos! The others came out (mostly) in normal clothes to sing some more songs as well. Nero and NORISTRY did a duet! Gero ended up MCing a lot with Kony after his second song. He talked about how that hot limit outfit took forever to put on because of the duct tape, and it was really tight and he had to sit like that for hours…. well I think it was worth it for the reaction he got LOL. They talked about how both alfakyun and nero really didn’t want to wear what they wore…. They were imitating nero just as he was about to go on stage saying he turned around suddenly saying “I don’t want to wear this after all”

Thennnn Kony said they were doing another foreign song: Beauty and the Beast!! So out comes clear in a really cool-looking suit outfit with a long jacket and…..? A FURRY LION HOOD……. And following him is Nero BACK IN THE DRESS AND WIG LOL. Again, they kept a completely straight face while singing and sounded amaazing as per their usual.

Glutamine sang his second song dressed as the singer (Nagabuchi Tsuyoshi) and kept it on for the rest of the event….. His hair was pulled back into a bandana and he had on sunglasses and a leather jacket….. He also was carrying around a guitar and harmonica (he didn’t touch the harmonica while performing, I think)
Kony finally sang at some point but I think it was a duet?? Then fakyun and mary came out in super cute outfits and sang sakuranbo!!!! A bunch of the guys came out to cheer on the sides and kettaro went HARD with the wotagei. THe other guys did some dancing too, it was great. Alfakyun kept saying, while glaring at nothing in particular, that she really did not want to wear this outfit either LOL she’s great…. It was a very light-coloured outfit and she had parts of her hair up in two glittery buns, very cute.

They then did a bunch of Johnny’s songs! Kony sang a solo here and NORISTRY came out in fakyun’s haruhi cosplay and started flirting extremely heavily with the bassist???? Kony had to drag him away to the other end of the stage, it was so wild. KETSUKOMA came out in what I’m pretty sure were the 2G uniforms?? They talked about how even though it’s the same shirt, it looks completely different on koma’n compared to Kettan hahaha. Kony asked them to guess what size his shirt was and it was 8L! They were really surprised.
Lastly, They all sang Sekai ni hitotsu dake no hana together! A very appropriate song for MUSIC STAGE.
Then, the encore!! fakyun and mary walked out (still wearing their sakuranbo outfits) complaining about a gross guy and gero stumbled behind them sadly while yelling mary’s name. They walked all the way out onto the platform and both gave him an (extremely light) slap on the cheek while calling him gross LOL. Then everyone came out and sang Memeshikute together!! It was super fun. Most people had changed out of their outfits but glutan was still in his and everyone kept laughing about it… maybe he really liked it. gero kept making everyone laugh and clear who was right beside him was really losing his shit.

It was such a crazy performance!! I didn’t know a lot of the songs too well (culture…..) but it was so fun to watch them sing in their ridiculous getups. I had so much fun!!
