tenton Posted July 7, 2014 Posted July 7, 2014 So is there a thread discussing the upcoming concert in LA? I am thinking of going. Edit: I was AnimeExpo doing some pre-show setup in the exhibition hall, when I heard Daisuki's booth blasting some OP/ED theme that gave me goosebumps. It was performed by May'n, but I didn't recognize the song. Ran to their booth and asked a couple people before someone knew what the song was from. Turned out it was the OP for M3, which I will give it a shot this week. Go. I'm doing the CA 2-step (going to both LA and SF shows). It's a rare chance. Not sure if she has her band with her, but she did 2 years ago. The LA venue definitely has the room to hold the band on stage and even maybe a few dancers too. Hoping both are there. IIRC from the set lists I've seen for the shows on this tour she's already done, there are a few MacF songs, but she's also been known to slightly alter set lists for the overseas tour stops (swapping a few songs out for other ones).

Hi new guy! I will most likely go. Found a flyer insert in the AX hand out last week. Quote
nanoplasm Posted July 8, 2014 Posted July 8, 2014 VIP ticket sold out, that made purchase decision easier. Quote
Seanzilla Posted July 8, 2014 Posted July 8, 2014 I am going to the San Fran show, and hoping to be there in time to see her the day before at the J-pop summit. Quote
VF25-F Posted July 16, 2014 Posted July 16, 2014 Have an enjoyable time at the Concert! Nice, if someone can write about it for the rest of us! : D Meanwhile Part 3 is out and you can see the Inari shrine. Quote

Welcome! If you're into M & M (Macross and May'n or the other way around) then you're in the right place! For those who has gone for the concert, do share your news or pictures taken. I do hope someone writes about the concert event. Quote
Seanzilla Posted July 28, 2014 Posted July 28, 2014 (edited) The concert in San Fran was amazing! I arrived there in time to see her give an interview at the JPop summit in Japan town. Her English has improved dramatically, did a full interview in english on stage. Later Saturday evening, she showed up again at Union Square where they were having a concert with several other performers. Una and Tokyo Girls Style were there. May'n came out at the end, talked a little about her show at Slim's Sunday night and hoped we would all be there. Then performed three songs for the crowd. In the Air Brain Diver MOSHIMO KIMI GA NEGAU NO NARA I recorded the whole thing, but don't think I can attach it here. Too big. But of course she was easily the best performer of the night. Sunday night at Slim's was absolutely awesome! Truly a beautiful and amazing performer, with an incredible voice that is even better live. Really goes all out for the crowd. Did a lot of talking with us as well, and as I said before her English is great. It was good two years ago when she was at Yoshi's in SF, however still had a translater for the meet and greets. But this time, no need for a translator or anything. She asked the crowd questions and replied just fine. She sang: Vivid Run Real Run Brain Diver May'n Space Morning of Determination Aozora Re:Remember A bad ass Macross Frontier Medley-Welcome to My Fan Club's Night (MF version), What About My Star, Infinity, Universal Bunny, Obelisk, Don't Be Late Diamond Crevasse Moonwalker Song of the Day Hero Nothern Cross Chase the World Love Colored Today ENCORE: Lose My Illusions Dolce Phonic Nation Kimi Shinitamou Koto Nakare It was difficult to take pics during the concert as they had slims staff and security watching. So just a few blurry shots and quick vids. Edited July 28, 2014 by Seanzilla Quote
VF25-F Posted July 29, 2014 Posted July 29, 2014 Indeed, her English has improved dramatically, during the interview, she was answering (in Japanese) without the interpreter repeating the question in Japanese. The other language she's improving is Mandarin. Damn, she sang 'In the Air' - that was easily my favorite in her new.album, wish I've could have heard it LIVE.. Thanks Seanzilla for the review. See if you can edit/cut your video to smaller parts - by song and upload it to Youtube. Would really love to see it, including those on her community. Quote

VF25-F Posted August 11, 2014 Posted August 11, 2014 Another interview. http://www.mtv81.com/features/interviews/mayn-connects-the-dots-at-j-pop-summit-festival-2014/ I did however find one video with May'n singing 'In the Air' but the person was standing maybe too close to the speakers, so the sound just burst. Pity though. Quote

Seanzilla Posted August 13, 2014 Posted August 13, 2014 (edited) Of her most recent album and singles, "In the Air" "Re:Remember" and "Soliste" are my favorites. Wish she had sang Soliste at the concert. Anyway, sorry for the delay, here is the footage I recorded from the JPop summit in Union Square. It is "In the Air" and "Brain Diver". I will upload the last song later and maybe the interview she did in English. Sorry for the quality, it was recorded with my cellphone. Edited August 13, 2014 by Seanzilla Quote
Renato Posted August 14, 2014 Posted August 14, 2014 Akt_m: That is called "Ota-gei", a performance dance by otakus. You will see them at anime/idol-related events. "Embarassment" is really an alien concept at this point in the evolution of otaku culture. Quote
antibiotictab Posted August 15, 2014 Posted August 15, 2014 (edited) Why are those guys dancing like idiots? It should be embarrassing, no? I don't like them. They don't listen to the music, but just come to get hilarious and wild by themselves. They tend to be troublesome because are easy to bump into the other normal fans and sometimes scuffles occur. We call them "イベンター", "eventers". They appear every ani-son concert. *Sigh* Edited August 15, 2014 by antibiotictab Quote
VF25-F Posted August 15, 2014 Posted August 15, 2014 (edited) Thanks Seanzilla for the upload. will eagerly await the rest : D 'Dots and Lines' Ep 5 Edited August 15, 2014 by VF25-F Quote

VF25-F Posted September 13, 2014 Posted September 13, 2014 While waiting for Dots N Lines #6. A little trip down memory lane. Not sure if anyone have seen this one. Some songs, I've not heard before, including a Universal Bunny with Ranka. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=opDhwqLY9SA Since she's been on this long tour, news have been slow. But May'n is confirmed for AFA2014, Singapore. Quote
A_Man_and_a_Woman?! Posted September 17, 2014 Posted September 17, 2014 Imma go back and start from page 1. This thread makes me sooo happy... May'n fans at J-pop summit - err....not focused on her XD I want to be a glow-stickie guy... Quote

She even sang duet 'LION' with Ranka!. Not to mention, she wore a really HOT outfit! http://space.mayn.jp/media/17108175 Quote
