Jeez, compared to the previous years it wasn't not sold out. It was empty...
And what a pity as it was a very good and enjoyable concert
The girls were in fine form, and so were the guests (Ryoko Moriyama was a blast)

But what was lacking were the surprises I guess.
We know all the guests and the songs from Folk Mura and alike
It has an incestuous feeling, and they need to think of rejuvenating the format if they want it to survive
Maybe three days just is too much.

But in itself I enjoyed day 1 a lot

If someone could cut Takoyaki Rainbow's part that would be nice. :)

"Go! Go! Here We Go! Rock Lee" can sound very perfect live (not from my favorite songs too)

Just finished watching Day 1. Random thoughts (not to take too seriously):

1. Takoniji were great. They looked amazing and sounded amazing. They left me wanting more.

2. Most of the acts weren't my style at all. I got a bit tired of "public friendly" songs. I don't know how to explain it, I feel like the old Girls Factory used to be a lot more experimental, with a mix of styles, underground bands, more know artists... but now it all seems a bit more one dimensional. This is just my opinion because of my taste, I'm sure those who like this type of music had a blast.

3. Anly and Terada Keiko brought a little more rock into the performances and I loved it.

4. My only complain with Syachi is that maybe they relied too much on old songs (?) I might be wrong but that's the impression it gave me. I want to hear more of their more recent stuff. Their ULTRA LONG TITLED SONG ALL IN CAPS is starting to be a favorite of mine so I agree with vimoral, it's probably going to remain on their setlists for a long time

29, Chandelier(Sia cover / with Hirota Aika)

That was beautiful.

The language did sound a bit like some odd dialect of Lallans, perhaps with a heavy Québécois/New Zealand accent. :))

But beautiful, nonetheless -- and very dramatic.
