****MAJOR EDIT: OMG my brain was really screwed after the show....either that or they changed the setlist during the show, but I SPECIFICALLY know Hunting was not played where it is placed on this, as I was NOT up on the rail when it was performed (I got up after Life on Mars?, my brain was functioning at this point). Maybe they DID make arrangements? AND HOLY SHIT I totally forgot about Vampire Depression! I'm so confused right now. Anyway, I've adjusted my review to follow it, you can see the setlist here: [link] *racks brains* Besides Hunting, everthing else is in place I believe. Thank goodness for things like this!
______
I found some interesting/really good footage concerning the concert, mainly things that I'd want you guys to see XDD:
~ This is someone (there were a LOT of the people who did this actually, apparantley they were really surprised XDD) who recorded how long the line was- and this isn't even the ENTIRE line!! (I'm sure it almost went right around the block.) Me and my friends were near the pale tall 35 year old looking guy with the striped shirt on at 0:56 (you don't see us though as we were more inside of the line ) : [link]
~ This is VAMPS going into the place (this must have been behind us on the other side somewhere as I don't recognize the surroundings, but I heard the screams!!) XD The girl who got this footage got to shake HYDE and K.A.Z's hands and in the beginning you see someone gave HYDE a gift : [link] NOW I remember what they had on! lolz.
~ This is them leaving through the back, and you can kinda see HYDE's colorful arm (he's wearing one of his flowery jacket things XDD) behind the secuirity dude and see him signing a few autographs before leaving (HOW NICE OF HIM!!! Even when he's exhausted, he doesn't mind taking a couple moments to make some fans happy. INCOHERRENT LOVE ) : [link]
There were some people who recorded some of the performances, but as expected most of them are crappy and really static-y, lolz, but this one came out really good:
Evanescent (sounds great, but not as amazing as I expected. I don't feel so bad I missed it now! ): [link]
I feel so good that, FOR ONCE IN MY LIFE, I can say I was there. IN YOUR FACES! lolz.

****WARNING: EXTREMELY LONG XD
SO here's the moment you've all been waiting for!!! My review of VAMPS' Concert at the Fillmore New York at Irving Plaza, July 11th. HOMG. Where can I start?! I'll break it up in sections.

The Friend Fiasco
Okay, so the intial plan was to have my friends by my house at 2 and leave at 3 sharp, right? WRONG. Things happened, a particular friend of mine wasn't ready when she was supposed to be, I became furious and we ended up leaving at 3:30 instead and got at the place at 4:30. My horrid nightmares were right; we did run late! So, things didn't really start off well.

Waiting On Line
So we get there- and the line was already like a quarter around the block. There had to be at least a 100 people in front of us. We would have had to been there at noon to be in the beginning of the line, which was so not going to happen. So, there goes that idea out the window. The people first in line were basically like camping out, they were sitting on blankets and chairs and had cases of food. XDD Besides that, there were ALL types of people who showed up, young, older (35+), a lot of Japanese people (obviously lol), a lot of white people, black people, Spanish people...XDD And some girls dressed up really nice (you're going to a MOSH concert not a prom! XD), some came looking all goth (it's not a Marilyn Manson concert XD) and there were a good handful of people who had HYDE shirts on (either self-made ones, or from his HYDEIST website) and some who had the VAMPS shirts from the Japanese goods for the tour. Particularly, a shirt I loved said "I love New York and VAMPS!" It was pretty cool. And then, VAMPS' backstage crew guys came through with cameras several times to record us for documentary footage I assume, so everyone was like "WOOOO!" and waving hands and making peace signs. XDD I probably won't be shown cuz I was in the inner part of the line, but my hands are definatley in there somewhere!

Sudden Delay
Okay, so according to my ticket, the doors were supposed to open at 6 and the concert was supposed to start at 7. For whatever reason, apparently VAMPS' was running late too that day lol because instead we were moving in AT seven and the concert started at 8. It was really painstaking and we were all getting impatient. DX The place was nice but smallish I guess, and when we joined the mosh by the stage (which was also small) I started sweating already being surrounded by so many people for the half hour we waited for VAMPS. (They started cheering "VAMPS! VAMPS!") However, I was still pretty close to the stage and I could see the stage quite clearly if I stood on tiptoe. Besides that, I have to say the pre-show music was ENTIRELY too loud for a small place so my ears were already blown out. DX But anyway, I was in a position to still see, so I thought I would be okay!! WRONG AGAIN.

Near Death Experience in the Mosh
So, FINALLY, VAMPS came out, and I saw HYDE through some gap through people's heads lol, and to my right through another gap I saw K.A.Z and was freaking out yelling out "I CAN SEE HIM! I CAN SEE HIM! " So, they started, blaringly (srsly I think I was deaf for like 10 minutes) with "Sex Blood Rock n Roll" and I enjoyed the mosh for exactly 2 minutes before I was out of breath completley. For whatever reason, no one could stay still, so you would be shoved to the right, then back, then crushed to the front and I got really squished where I couldn't breathe, and I couldn't catch my breath, so I couldn't sing along or anything, we were all covered in sweat, there was no air and then people were pushing and elbowing you (like they're going to go anywhere -_- ), I got poked and hit in several places, some idiots were being carried around on top and hit me, and oddly the closer we got to the stage the less my view of HYDE got and I was stuck in this death trap for like about half an hour. My neck hurt from trying to look up to see and I was seriously regretting it, I almost wanted to cry because this would be my only chance to see VAMPS and currently at that time I wasn't enjoying myself at all. I mean, there were WAY too many people in that small place, like ten people had to be pulled out because they passed out, a lot of people (specifically the poor short Asians) left because they were getting CRUSHED, it was really horrible! I mean, it's a freaking health hazard! If you have asthma, you'd die in there! And, if you're under 5'3 you'll definatley suffer. It got to the point where I felt I was going to pass out myself, and I said to myself "GOD DAMMIT, this is my ONLY chance to see HYDE and I'll be damned if some hostile New Yorkers are going to stop me from enjoying this!" So, I was able to move myself to the edge by a rail, where it was cool and I had breathing space, the backstage staff gave me two bottles of water (water had never looked so beautiful before) which I downed in seconds and finally I was able to catch my breath. I was a mess though, these two pretty Japanese girls next to me were like "Are you okay?" XDD On top of that, doubled with the blaring music and fangirl screams my hearing was really altered so HYDE sounded muffled (I was near fury at this point), either that or it was the microphone, but when he talked he sounded weird instead of like his normal voice tone. I was really upset over that too. I missed the opportunity to enjoy like...7 songs *CRIES* but here's what I can remember from them:
Sex Blood Rock n Roll
Loud, insane, did see HYDE for a good part of this, saw him fling his hair around and all. XDD I was able to see Ju-ken and K.A.Z too, but my main focus was HYDE.

Hunting
Pretty much the same, instead here was where I started like GASPING for air and I started to get really uncomforable. DX

It's Sad
THIS I could hear very nicely, but my vision of HYDE decreased and I was like wanting the song to be over because I couldn't breathe. I did get a nice view of HYDE for at least a minute lol he was great for this song.

Redrum
I didn't see much, but it sounded fantastic!!!

Dialouge
HYDE: Hello New York!
Mosh: WOOOOO!!
HYDE: We're VAMPS!
Mosh: WOOOOOOO!!
HYDE: This is VAMPS' 1st tour in the US. We're staying for a month!
Mosh: WOOOOOO!!!
HYDE: I know you had to wait a awhile- thank you for that! (Aww, okay HYDE I forgive you lol!)
Mosh: WOOOOO!
HYDE: Are you having fun? (No, I'm trying to survive this mosh DX)
Mosh: *SCREAM CHEERS*
HYDE: Good! Next song, Secret in My Heart.

Secret In My Heart
I almost wanted to cry when this started playing because I love this song to pieces and I knew I was not going to enjoy it. DX I was so focused on trying to breathe I barely remember this performance.

Vampire Depression
The little that I remember of it, amazing

Jesus Christ
This I remember hearing well too, but I don't think I saw anything XDD Brillant. Jesus Christ Live = EPIC.

Evanescent
MY LIFE HATES ME!! I internally cried again and I'm still really upset I didn't get to enjoy this either, I barely remember it as well. I was SO looking forward to this live, it's my favorite VAMPS song and it was RUINED!! Hopelessly destroyed. I HATE NEW YORK. I am HOPING so hard they play it in L.A. for the DVD or I think I will cry literally. I can't even listen to it cuz it makes me sad I totally missed it live, basically. *FAIL*

Countdown
Barely remember anything cuz I was dying.

Dolly
I got NOTHING. I didn't know of it's existance at my concert until I saw the setlist. XDD

Sweet Dreams
REMEMBER NOTHING. Just remember it was a bit of a relief cuz I got some breathing space.


Life on Mars?
At this point, I had made it by the rail and was catching my breath and was almost semi-normal again lol. I remember being thankful they were playing this cuz I didn't really like this song anyway, so I just focused on my breathing and feeling alive again. Remember nothing. I'm sorry TrueLaruku, I know you would of looked forward to this, but I needed to survive LOL.

The Sacred Rail and Perfect View
So, FINALLY, after feeling alive again and being relieved, I did what the Japanese girl next to me was doing, and got up on the rail- I was like, 8 feet from the stage, I could see EVERYONE perfectly, their entire bodies and not just their torsos lol and it was WONDERFUL I was SOOO happy!! I had a better view than like 80% of the crowd so I was pretty psyched. Homg. And before I continue with the songs, I HAVE to interupt with something.

FANGASMING OVER THE GORGEOUSNESS OF EVERYONE
OMG OMG OMG OMG. LIKE. SRSLY. Okay, HYDE looked beautiful by default lol he was very simple like he is for VAMPS' concerts- he had a gray VAMPS' tank on that had VAMPS in black on it, blue jeans and black boots underneath. He didn't have any make up on his STUNNING face (holy crap dude...I don't know what it is exactly but he looks SO MUCH better in person than in pictures. Like, HIS FACE IS PERFECT!! I couldn't take my eyes off it. I forgot he was 40 years old for like 20 minutes LOL, I swear!! HE LOOKED SO GOOD!!) and his hair was less poofy than it was for VAMPS LIVE 2008 lol it was more held together and still fluffy and orange-y but great and.....gaaaah. *dies* I can't get him out of my head. It's so BIZARRE seeing him in person, I can't describe it. It's like HO SHIT HE'S REALLY THERE AND HE'S A PERSON AND HE DOESN'T LOOK SO SHORT (probably because I was pretty close LOL so they looked their actual sizes and all. HOOOOMMMG. ) Seeing him in his actual life-size form was amazing. I mean... *DIES* I can't get him out of my head and I don't want to! X3 Oh, and his shoulders were VERY nicely toned and he was kinda muscular-y, VERY VERY nice. SO MUCH HOTNESS. I can't believe I survived it. I just kept grinning like an idiot LOL! He's such a MAN now. XDD (Even though he's still pretty. )
OMFG. I HAVE TO TALK ABOUT K.A.Z. PICTURES AND DVDS DO HIM NO JUSTICE AT ALL. He is ABSOLUTLEY GORGEOUS LIVE, when I saw him I was like "HOLY SHIT THAT'S HIM?!!" He was STUNNING. Seriously. He was SOOO pretty and soo well kept I LOVED his hair (it was straigentened and in multiple layers and kinda spiked with blonde highlights) I forgot what he was wearing LOLZ though I know later on he came out with his gray and white VAMPS' shirt on. HE WAS SOOO AMAZING. It's like, he would be the geeky kid at school that no one pays attention to and then he goes to prom and wows everyone. That was EXACTLY how it was like. He almost looked better than HYDE, honest!! XDD
And Ju-ken, too, is AWESOME and really gorgeous live, he looked totally great with his black and red hair and, yeah. *sighs*

FINALLY ENJOYING THE SHOW
Yeah, so up on the rail, not only did I get an EXCELLENT view, but I had energy to actually dance, and sing and cheer now LOLZ and it was THEE BEST half hour or so of my life. Also, guess what? THEY LOOKED AT ME!! XDD I was waving like mad everytime they got close, and K.A.Z looked at me 3 times (the last time, at the end of the show, he was throwing guitar picks out, and he looked at me to throw me one but the bastard in front of me caught it. -_- However, I appreciate your effort K.A.Z! I LOVE YOU!! <3) They were playing their guitars so obviously they couldn't wave back lolz BUT THEY SAW ME. HYDE spared me a good 3 second glance so I feel so accomplished, and then he looked at me again later. <3 IT WAS GREAT. And Ju-ken saw me too as he pranced around stage head banging and dancing and making funny faces ROFL he's so amazing. And K.A.Z was like a life saver cuz he tossed two nice cold bottles of water in the crowd (the crew backstage actually started passing out water in cups cuz everyone was dying lol) and HYDE toward the end sprayed water on the people in the middle (that must have felt great ). I remember in the beginning being squished in the mosh, when he paused to drink his own water bottle I was like "You wanna share some of that water HYDE?" XDD Anyway, let me go on to describing the songs. X3
Dialouge
HYDE: Are you having fun? (YES FINALLY!)
Crowd: WOOOO!!
HYDE: I had...I had pizza.
Crowd: *CHEERS*
HYDE: ...New York Pizza.
Crowd: *CHEERS*
HYDE: It was a BIG pie (he held his hands out about 7 inches to show the size LOLZ compared to Japanese portions, our portions are like 5x the size, so I was sure he would be surprised. I so LOLed he's so cute.)
Crowd: *lol*
HYDE: I ate it though...it was very yummy yummy. (ROFL I LOVE YOU HYDE!!! It still makes me laugh now. XD)
Crowd and Me: *LMAO*
HYDE: Are you ready New York? (x3)
Crowd: WOOOO!
HYDE: ARE YOU FUCKING READY?! (This sounded SO GREAT LIVE XDD )
Crowd: W0000000000T!!!

Hello
W00T! One my fav HYDE songs and this performance didn't disappoint at all, I sung along, it was fantastically fantastic. WIN.

Trouble
YES! YEEEEEES!!! THEY PLAYED IT!! AND IT WAS SUPER KICK-ASS!! Instead of the normal techno, they rockified it and HOLY CRAP DUDE. PHENOMENAL. I was SOOOO into this song, it was SO FREAKIN AWESOME, I think this was my favorite performance honestly!!! SUCH AMAZINGNESS. He sounded wonderful again AND SO CLEAR. He was actually clearer with this performance than on the actual song LOL omg it was such love, I could have died after this song and died happy. HIS ENGLISH IS SUCH WIN. It was truly amazing and SUPER SEXY (I love his deeper voice he had for this X3) COMBINED with dancing, MAN he does NOT disappoint!! I totally screamed in awe when it ended. OMGOSH. HOTTEST DAMN THING IN THE WORLD!!!

Hideaway
FUN FUN FUN!! SO GREAT! I screamed with happiness cuz this is also one of my favs!! Totally sexy. And he stopped to let us sing "DIG IN AND GET YOUR HANDS DIRTY!" which I yelled at the top of my lungs XDD Fumazing. I danced a lot to this lol!!

Love Addict
OMG BEST THING EVER. AMAZING. SEXY. SO VERY VERY SEXY. HYDE's dancing made me laugh, especially this one part where he put his hands on his hips and swayed them around LMAO I so lol'ed and fangasmed. His dancing was SO SPECTACULAR to see live, I was giggling the whole time. And he did the whole tongue thing (which made me squee) and he sounded wonderful (by this time I could hear better so he sounded normal again) and the music was killer and HOMG. AMMAAAAAAAZING. He sounded WAY BETTER on this song than he did for VAMPS Live 2008. His voice is so godly. I can't describe it.

Cosmos
YEEEEEEEES!!!!!!!! OMG. IT WAS SO GREAT. AGAIN. His voice was spot on. I so sang along, and he pulled a long note toward the end that took my breath away. Homg. This almost made up for missing 'Secret In My Heart' and 'Evanescent'. VAMPS-tastic!!!

Midnight Celebration
I was kinda sad when this started cuz I was like NO! IT'S ENDING! *sob* Just when I was getting into it too. But anyway, this didn't dissappoint either, AND OMG. FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER HYDE did NOT scream or screech for this song, he just SANG and I was so happy and so excited, excellent way to end a show!!!! LOVE LOVE LOVE XDDD

Dialouge
HYDE: Thank you, New York! Thank you SO MUCH!!
Crowd: WOOOOO!!!!
HYDE: We love you, New York! We'll see you again!
Crowd: WOOOOO!!
HYDE: *Blows kisses*

Then he hung around for a bit, looked and smiled at everyone, knelt down to look at everyone in the front, climbed up on a speaker and made a peace sign. He seemed really happy and apparantley really enjoyed us lol. (Hopefully as much as we enjoyed him!) He is SOOOOOO indescribly amazing truly. I wouldn't have missed this for the world, even though I almost died. XD
AND YOU KNOW WHAT ELSE ROCKED ABOUT OUR CONCERT?
HE DIDN'T SCREECH OR SCREAM AT ALL!!! He just SANG! It was SO relieving, and soooo much better. It was the best thing to see him live, to see him close, to see him over me (when I was in the mosh, he got up on something and smiled down at us) and to see him dance, and sway AND have him actually look at me. <3 My gosh. If only I got to the rail sooner. DX
Then, he left promptly after blowing another kiss, while Ju-ken gave the fans in the front by me high-fives (he's the only one that actually touched the fans, HYDE or K.A.Z never put their hands out) and K.A.Z stayed the longest throwing out guitar picks and smiling and he waved before leaving (some bastard threw a plastic bottle on stage and almost hit him!) Arimastu also went in the front for a moment so I saw him too!! But JIN was no where to be found!! Odd. *ANGST*
And, they didn't play "I Gotta Kick Start Now" *MORE ANGST*
AND THE GOODS WERE SUCH CRAP COMPARED TO THE JAPANESE ONES! I knew they weren't bringing as much stuff, but I didn't know they had CHANGED them. I was so dissapointed! They only had two type of shirts, which were a bright green or a bright pink with the 'VAMPS' vampire mouth on it, (instead of the more stylish, shiny ones that came in like 8 different colors)our bags look more like shopping bags instead of totes and only came in red or black, our PAMPHLET was even different (was really nice though) and then the simple, fuzzy wrist bands, instead of the 6 different sylish ones, and then....lid openers. XDD I was SO upset, srsly. I don't know why we didn't get the same goods. >: C UNFAIR!!! Now I'll see if I can them online, and I'll have to pay shipping....and because of that, Kittie I didn't get you a shirt cuz they weren't very appealing, I took the last pink one for myself. and they only had x-larges left, they actually RAN OUT! Ugh. Nonetheless, I still got a bag, shirt, wristband and pamphlet, cuz I had too, but I was really looking forward to the other goods. Oh well.

So, overall, though I didn't get in the front, I waited an extra hour, I almost got killed in the mosh, missed half the songs AND was disappointed by lame goods, and basically had an EPIC FAILURE of a day, those six songs and being able to see them clearly and closely for half an hour made it ALLL WORTH IT. HONESTLY. I SAW HYDE. HE SAW ME. I'M HAPPY.
Though, I will NEVER NEVER NEVER EVER EVER EVER X MILLION go to a mosh again. I much rather watch VAMPS from the comfort of my own home where I'll enjoy it more I think LOL!! I'm in so much pain right now. DX
THANK YOU HYDE, K.A.Z AND JU-KEN FOR LOOKING AT THE SWEATY GIRL ON THE RAIL WHO WAS WAVING AT YOU AND NEARLY DIED IN THE MOSH FOR YOU!! I appreciate it. XDD
