Where to begin?  How hot Rika and Yossi were? How hard they rocked it? The huge Japanise guy that was right in front of me that never heardof deoderant?

Oh man, I remember that gigantor looking mofo.  Seeing Yossy & Rika probably negated having to put up with his "scent" for the entire time. :D I had some crazy red headed dude jumping on my back the entire concert, felt like elbowing him in the face.  But it was all good fun so no injuries were given.  :lol:

Woo Hoo...the group pic is up.  Man, I look kinda dorky...Heh.  Still, that night was sweet as a malasada.  Hey daigong, would it be alright for me to put the pic on my Facebook page...didn't want to be putting up pics without permission,you know.

Group photo!  :D  It was fun hanging out with you all  :cow:  For those of you who couldn't make it, the pink glow-in-the dark rings that 2 of us are wearing around our necks are the ones Yossy and Rika threw into to the crowd during the concert.   :twothumbs  Thanks again dagryph for nabbing one for me!  Otherwise I couldn't catch one because I'm too short. :mon roll:

It's ALL GOOD Ricky, it was all spur of the moment shit anyways. WATERFRONT GRILL CUZ ISHIYOSHI ATE THERE!!! Good way to get some girls holding on to you in the freezing rain XD

I just can't believe Seattle nite life was so dead...really, Easter Sunday? Maybe.



Super secret stark spy also found out they celebrated with cake at the cheesecake factory right next to the con. 

Sunday+Easter weekend means it was slow going.  But since we're all used to the rain, most people stay in clubs/bars/venues but don't chill outside so its hard to see where things are going.

On that note, I unfortunately mentioned the goth club I belong to on sunday morning.  I don't know the reaction from the girls but I know their translator/liaisons thought it would have been awesome to have them see some of our nightlife.  (best part would be no one would be the wiser)

I was teased by another board member over the weekend about looking 15 years old. D:
She was really confused when I was suggesting Guiness to someone, drinking chardonnay, and a Captain and Coke at the dinner lol.

Guy in the blue in the back row would be me. Daigong willed me to join this place, and so I have. For my first experience with fellow H!P fans, it was amazing. So much energy, so much enthusiasm. I already can't wait to see ya'll again in LA this July. :)

And Ops, you didn't have to deal with GigantorJap, I did. D: I swear I smelled him around me for many hours following the concert. My shoulder also remember his dropping elbow after he tried to jump.

My bad... I should have said that Rick & yourself seeing Yossy & Charmy would have probably have negated having to deal with the scent.  I should have clarified that first... But, yeah...  :)

^Thanks for the videos!


Aww the group picture is cute =D
Thanks to you guys for a great weekend! Both daigong and rev were great leaders  :D You really brought everyone together.
It was nice hanging out with Yossie and Rika fans!
Oh and by the way getting lost after leaving Waterfront Grill was actually fun. Cold but fun XD.


Ah they went to the cheesecake factory too? Awesome.

The concert was awesome. I still cant stop thinking about it.
I remember I needed water asap and my feet were killing me afterwards but I was so into the moment that nothing mattered.
Ahh shaking Yossie and Rika's hand, plus the eye contact at the concert killed me.

LOL During the concert since Yossie kept throwing her pink glowstick necklaces far back, I HAD to get one from Rika, and then when she threw one, both me and Ripusu caught the exact same one and broke it in half lol. So she kept one half and I kept one half XD We pretty much went crazy during the concert. It was so much fun!

Rika is so sweet, I really love her smile <3 She was already one of my favorite members, but after this, ahhh she went up for sure. She's so nice! <3 And Yossie!!  :wub: I pretty much died when she looked at me at the concert, plus when I told her I was a big fan and she said "ahh thank you" in English during the Q&A handshake, yep I died once again.

I would write my report but its going to be looong. XD
So Ill add details later.

Great thing you guys wore your jph!p shirts, since I could spot you guys so much easierXD.
Loved the JPH!P H&A shirts by the way, I would love to have one  :heart:


Oh and Kei! You got to talk with Yossie at the Hyatt!  :w00t: OMG!!

I would post my review in great detail... but i know DS12 is going too for the both of us here (thank you ds12 =P) since we both went together... so i'll just state some of my highlights

At the reception rika shook my hand for a good second and BOWED!!!!! and i was all like "right right i must bow" and gave a slight nod LOL. When they found out we were from miami (as DS12 explains her review) she looked at both us in the eyes and said "really? really?" and now i can't here that word with our remembering that moments

The concert was FREAKING amAZING.... everytime rika came to my side i totally died... and her dancing was so cute!!!!!!!!!! AHH i TOTALLY FANGIRLED WITH RIKA!!!!!!

I screamed "RIKA AISHITERU" like five times untill she awknowledged me!!! DAMMIT took her sweet time lol j/k j/k... maybe... anywho...

and then at the Q-A i asked a question that got the audience cheering!!!!

and then at the signing... when rika was signing... I was like " Rika-chan rika-chan, aishiteru!" and she totally smiled and said "thank you" and then signed my stuff and pointed at the heart that she did at the end and said "for you" in her engrish and that's when i officially just DIED inside!! i got off jumping and hugging random people around me and ect... it was AMAZING!!!



besides these official things...

Me and ds12 saw yossy in tully's and if you wanna read about that... go read ds12's post when she posts it XD! It's also in h-O if you dont want to be patient.

I met ALOT of awesome people at the con and even though i went for Yossy and Rika which made the trip worth it... it was the peeps i met and exchaged emails with and created starting friendships that really made this trip memorable.

Just to name a few:

Gogirlanime (h-O)
Kimuuu (hitomi heaven)
Kei (hitomi heaven)
Rev2hd (JPHIP)
Daigong (JPHIP)
My four japanese friends who we hung out with (Aya, Mika, Mae and tao-kun!)
The guy who took us to eat the water front grill hotel and we all got lost!!! !!
Wolfey Wofl! (jpihp/H-O)

and many many many more who i can't recall their names but i definately remember their face!

Im hoping that something similiar to the awesomness that this weekend was happens in July with mm at AX... HELL YEAH!!!

1444 FOH EVAH!!!!

That's right -- it was sort of hard to miss the group from Sakura-Con and JapanFiles and UFA celebrating Yossie's birthday. We saw some fans in the restaurant looking over (hard to not notice all the noise and singing) but everyone was very respectful and allowed her to enjoy her celebration uninterrupted.

Thanks for all the warm wishes - she couldn't believe that so many people in America knew about her birthday!

^ LMFAO..they had mentioned "Mmm Cheesecake Factory" in my interview but we were all like Let's soak in the Waterfront Grill that they were at XD FUCK! Totally failed at stalking, and brought the duct tape and clown masks! j/k MAD EPICness to y'all who saw em wandering!! POST MORE REPORTS PLS!!

THATS HOW WE DO. JPH!P WORLD TOURS make it WORTH IT!! lol look at me claiming you all. But shit. Everyone is like fucking family like they knew each other all along. Ripusu & differentstory12 EPIC u know i got a soft spot for Miami Latinas, Kimuu & Kei, fucking epic candid moment!! Tully's hmm.

lol My throat is still sore. Doesn't help if you were that asshole leading the mad applause/hollering at the Q&A.

Let's recap Sunday a bit...

WOW. It was a memorable adventure after the con anways. Ocean front and centre! I ain't complaining!! Maybe FIGHBIRD the Wota Guy who kept screaming "It's COLD! My nuts!" or smth in japanese XD when we escorted all the ladies to their hotels, we walked with him far far away to this shitty motel lol. Taught em all the nWo "4 LIFE" hand sign too XD

It was crazy awesome seeing you guys front and center.  You were closer than I was during the concert~!
I sadly only had my con book signed, but it was still super awesome.

LMAO! You -ARE- a closet fanboy XD Where'd u get those security? Scowling at us as we were going insane DONT TAZE ME BRO!

Also:  If you want to see a overweight white dude filled with glee, look at the 1 minute mark on their first Sakura-Con video.   ;)

Dude I posted yer pic in HiP Joint in the world tour thread XD

Speaking of video.  I don't know what UpFront and/or JapanFiles will be doing with it all, but audio was recorded and so was the HD video you saw on the big screens.  Concert DVD?  I hope so!

The little lady with the HD camera filming? At the Q&A, I took her aside and I asked her what it was for and she said myspace. Then without missing a beat asked if we could record a bday greeting for Yossi (cuz our original plan was scrapped due to not being seated together as Dinny mentioned)

FUCKING NOT BULLSHITTING.

So HD Cam Lady brought us outside the hall and against a wall, and we did "HAPP-II~~" pose  and then in a Yossi-like pointing "BIRTHDAY!!" and shit, each of us got facetime to do a lil blurb!!!! Stragglers joined in but WHO CARES!! The more the merrier!! Later I gave her our card XD :pimp:

We were so HYPED...me and crispysoupchef chest bumped NBA style XD

We did eventually get to do our BDAY chant THO!!!! As they were leaving the autograph signing, we just we like waving and shit, we go LETS DO IT...and went "HAPP-II~~ .....BIRTHDAY!!" to Yossi and Yossi was like WTF!!!! and Rika was like cute applause!!! as they left, we did this grab each other jump up and down celebratory dance like in the NBA pre-game HYPE!! And yep, recorded on the HD Cam Lady!!!!

Great Q&A Recaps!!!

I didn't manage to get a seat near the front, but fuck bullshitted with the Yossi Japanese fangirls near the left side, close to stage and kneeled. SO YEAH, whole time I was literally worshipping IshiYoshi!! I'd be that maniac to the side after their responses, whooping and hollering. Like "What photobook" and "Yes we working on one." and I yelled "ALO HELLO!"

Lay low? Who me XD

The even more fucking crazier shit, is that fucking. It was advertised brief group photo prior but IT DIDNT HAPPEN!! That's why me and dinny wore the giant jphip logo shirt XD

The funniest thing about the Q&A was them "While you're waiting, watch their PV!!" and their lapper kept fucking up :lol: if I knew more Japanese we shoulda sang it.

I loved that Yossi loved our react to the song. When H&A sings "Kill Me" we yeled KILL ME!!!! "Kiss Me" we go "KISS ME!!!!" haha, and here I was Terrie (H!P Taiwan site super fangirl) show us some wotagei moves! I did lead the HEY! HEY! HEY! during the non singing parts, and Rika felt that vibe and like fist pump gestured as if to signal us!! :love:

I guess their management had planned on a lot of people wanting to talk them and made sure they had a great dinner elsewhere.

That's awesome that they had a bite before...they sure didn't look jet lagged in the interview. Even I, who was coughing up hoogies, held it all in for that be. They were so freezing I bet.

During The Interview. It was "no pix when Yossi gets cold and bundles up!!" So here is the rest that I took, not great cuz I didn't wanna be flashing lightbulbs at they faces XD

The table we sat at was a typical boardroom table 10-11, I sat at the edge closest to Rika :heart: with lackey inbetween, and UFA President (I had no idea) in a couch to my right.

I found it funny the girls asked make up questions, while I asked sports XD

More Interview recap later until I can co-ordinate my notes with Terrie and USA Musume girls cuz I had no idea it would be so long (40 plus minutes) so intimiate. I had 1 question then was making shit up on the fly.

And the responses - no hesitation. The hamming it up for the camera you see behind the scenes? Shit comes like *snap* Spontaneity defined is IshiYoshi, fucking best 1-2 punch in the industry.

Here is some random pix of us lining up for the Q&A...SINCE 10 AM!! Ah well, at least we got in.

Here's us posing after our epic Bday shout out video to Yossi.


CLAN IN THE FRONT! HOODS ON THE RIGHT! LET YER FEET STOMP!

NEW ALBUM THIS FALL

Tentative most likely. BUT ALBUM THEY WORKING ON!! But new Photo BOOK!!! SEXY!!

The shirt and plushies are awesome too! I hope they'd sell them in the Hot Topic here XD

That reminds me, you know what is fucking bullshit?! u know i forgot my licensed shit to sign for the autograph session on Friday, I went to Hot Topic closest to my hotel (Roosvelt) and dude said "What's a HANGRY & ANGRY" not "we're sold out" lucky I lined up at the Retailers section at Sakura Con and squeezed in JUST In TiME for Priority signage! :D But yeah. MISADVERTISING :/

Here's us at the signing after they left. No problem in posting chairs right?


Totally smothered my face in the chair Rika sat in XD

 :pimp:  LMAO the phone call, that shit was linked? Too good XD I don't even remember who called who. I was so drunk off one glass of wine but yeah KT, our phone bills are gonna be thru da ass.

And lol even tho I bought a shitload, I only got 1 ticket? so couldn't get multiple autographs. ah well. I got this, it's all that matters:


And can't say this enough. A BIG BOW DOWN...all those who came out. Found me, cuz shit I had no idea what y'all looked like. I loved when differentstory12 and Ripusu were like "YAW!! JPHIP! H&A" and I was like "YAWW!!" slap, keep going but they totally chased me down XD and were like "Dude it's US!!" Kevin who heard the radio call and gave us mad props, again those Japanese Fans we met. Truly inspirational, Totally schooled us in the knowledge, we just bullshitted every nuance of H!P ...like FUCK Mae-chan, I love that chick. Laying smack on Ai-chan, "WTF is this monkeyface. Why???" cracked me up. And Ripusu was like "Aya-chan (one of the Yossi fangirls) u look like Maki" and Mae-chan was like "Ohhhh, u just said u ain't a Maki fan. That means u dun like Aya-chan" FUCKIN RICH. Just fucking full of life, energy, makes ya go "Shit son, I gotta brush up on the Hello! Project IQ and not just stare at Rika's ass!" MAD PROPS.

SPESHUL :heart: :heart: big ups to: Fen for translating letters, random shit I think up XD tru_harmony for those long, dark nights brainstorming even though I knew she wanted to come so badly from the Phillipines. Really glad we met up with wings4dreams, differentstory12 + friend, and Loona201 "I'll swear I'll post" Thai girl :P And of course, rev down with the clown straight from da underground.

We worked so hard building this site, putting up with the haters and the frontrunners. Even when shit looked rough, we kept it fucking positive and GOD ALL MIGHTY, we plant that JPHIP ASS LOGO FLAG on top of Mount ASS-MORE!! To have Rika and Yossi know we exist is - words cannot describe. As I walked through the autograph session after Q&A, Yossi's eyes lit up and I gave her that daigong seduction and Rika grinned like a cheshire Kat as she looked me in the eyes like the GOD she is. That's what I'm fucking talking about.

...but we ain't stopping. Best believe we gonna be that flag ship leaders for FANS UNITED under that one IshiYoshi/HANGRY & ANGRY cause that has brought us here today. Keep repping the music, and whatever releases come out. Keep discussing, keep ranting and hollering and jizzing. They work they asses off, the best showstoppers in ALL THE LAND!!

The blueprint has been laid out, the fire lit under the asses, LETS KEEP ON GOING!! Sweden LAND. I'm helping you out FO SHO. LA @ AX. WE GO HARD. Non-stop. Each will be individual weekends of EPICNESS.

Buono in Sweden: http://forum.jphip.com/index.php?topic=18656.0
MM @ LA/AX: http://forum.jphip.com/index.php?topic=18472.0

JPHIP GOT SWAGGA.

BUT FOR FUCK YEAH. Even if u ain't fan, try to pop a message of encouragement to each and every MM member. Fen's writing letters for all, I will do the same. Management was so laid back and cool, accepted lots and lots of gifts. I totally sign languaged "see my shirt, you get a shirt" XD

Honestly, there are times when I wish I coulda did more, gave em better gifts...but fuck, the best present is just to let em know there are shitloads of fans outside of Japan that respect and worship them. MISSION FUCKING ACCOMPLISHED.

To those who couldn't go, never fucking give up hope. I mean fuck, I was happy for Masa and ebc when they went to V-u-den, being the big tall white dudes in a sea of fans. TOGETHER...shit total count of all the peeps we met prolly totalled 25, but as u can see in the lineup, there were A LOT.

SO Keep buying their stuff and THEY WILL BE BACK who knows where? 2010? :P

WANT MORE JUICY DETAILS?!?! Tune into The Official ~IshiYoshi is Love~ Radioshow with tru_harmony this Thursday! Check local listings.

DUDE.

I just went through all the fucking posts since the start of the con and I have such a huge grin on my face from being able to re-live the weekend through them.

It was cool reading other people's accounts of the concert and other events; it filled some of the gaps in my memory.  I'm gonna have to add my reports and links to my pics from the weekend, too. 

Looking at the pics already posted here, I realized... FUCK.  Was I supposed to censor out our Japanese buddies?  Shit, I just posted my pics on Facebook.  Now I have to go delete some. XD  Mah bad.  I SHALL RETURN (!!!) WITH MORE SakuraCon stories and fangirliness from a Yossy fanatic's POV.

Again, it was so great meeting all of you in Seattle.  Daigong's the fucking MAN.

BTW
Can a sista get a name change, plz?  CrispySoupChef ==> Kimuuu  ;)  Thanks!

EDIT:
Who has the pic/vid of daigong and I chest bumping?  Do want.  LMAO!

EPIC. That is all I can really say.

Here is my review on Hangry Angry at Sakura Con.
FRIDAY:
Autographs

I waited in line after running around like a crazy woman to find "official merchandise" to get signed, and realized that I already had some. AT this point the line was longer than I had seen it, but I was willing to brave it out for Yossi and Rika. When I was in line, Yossi glanced up and saw me, her eyes got wide and she gave me a "WTF?" look. I am assuming it was because my wig was massive, blonde and curly at the time. When I arrived up there, I began gushing in Japanese about how I had always been a fan, thanks for coming to Seattle, ect. Their translator asked me if I was going to their concert and I said in Japanese. "Oh of course, I am going" Yossi smiled and said "Thank you!!" I melted.

When I got to Rika, she smiled brightly at me then gasped softly and said "KAWAII!" About my wig. (cute!) I felt so happy to get a special little compliment from each of them. After getting my posters signed, I headed off outside to immediately freak out internally. :)

SATURDAY:
Concert:
I waited in line with people who had red wrist bands to get early entrance to the concert, this is where I met the most AWESOME Hangry Angry fans ever. We all just ended up chatting about what we liked about Yossi and Rika, and shared some of our convention experiences we had had with them. At the concert My friend (Who caught Rika's blue fan) and I got front seats, (right in front of the huge-ass Japanese guy) I screamed my lungs out so much.. When Rika was tossing her blue glow necklaces, I reached out and screamed in Japanese "Please, over here!! Please!" She paused briefly and smiled at me, and then threw one right at me! AHH.. I thought I would die. Yossi made so much eye contact with me, it was just absolutely amazing. When they did their rock versions of the two hello project songs, I could hardly believe it. I waved my arms and did as much of the Peace dance as I could muster in a crowd of screaming fans and waving arms.. but it was so much fun. Seeing Yossi’s face as we all sang her happy birthday made the concert even better.

SUNDAY
Q and A
I met some neat people in line, including two girls with bright hair whom I helped out with writing birthday messages to Yossi. The whole waiting for two hours in line though, only to get screwed over and stuck more in the back of the room sucked a little, but I managed to get two decent pics of Rika and Yossi. I also asked them a question in Japanese about how they felt about America, as well as how concerts in Japan and America differed in their opinion. I left after the Q and A, thinking I wouldn’t get an autograph, and thought.. what the hell half an hour later and came back. I managed to get another pair of signatures from them, and spewed off more compliments in Japanese. Although I made an ass of myself in front of Rika.. I told her my friend had caught her blue fan in the concert, but I mixed up the hand held fan and mechanical fan. So it sounded like I said "My friend caught the oscillating fan you chucked into the crowd yesterday!" She paused and cocked her head to the side, saying "oscillating fan?" I blushed and she looked at me and said "OHH a hand fan!" I nodded and said sorry for making a mistake. She smiled sweetly and said “oh don’t worry, it’s ok!" Then I had to move on, but I still felt like a million bucks.

Closing Ceremonies:
I managed to get a video of the two girls talking to the audience.. Whooo.. Still reeling from it, but it was well worth all the effort, time waiting and pain in my feet after their concert.

Awesome reports everyone, it's been so much fun reading them all.

Sorry for linking to those clips.  I didn't make them, I was just passing on the info.  Anyway, if people saw them they'll know where to look, there's probably another one or something.


I've listened to SadisticDance so many times I finally worked out the line was, it's not life, bike, or wife, it's "this is my vibe".

Presumably it's what Rika said when Yossie found something in her suitcase! XD
