KAT-TUN 2 Me

Excuse my language, but it’s about fucking time.

KAT-TUN III- Queen of Pirates, new album to be released June 4th. Lol that it’s queen of pirates. I mean, I know they have a pirate thing going on ever since Kaizokuban, but I didn’t know they were ready to own up to being queens.

Oh KT, you have been making me so very happy lately. <3

Edit: And minutes later, the tracklist shows up. Credit to kattunlove lj community. Very glad to see that 6 senses is getting a studio release.

Dates for KAT-TUN’s new concert tour are out. They can be found here

My plea is the usual one, can someone please, PLEASE, PLEASE help me get tickets? They’re not on sale yet, but I’m starting to look for someone to help me early because the thought of not being able to attend makes me feel kind of panicky. Lol. My Japanese speaking and listening is pretty good, but my reading isn’t that great (because I hate studying kanji), so I don’t trust myself to try to buy from ticket websites that are in Japanese without screwing it up somehow. Also, I don’t have a Japanese credit card, and while I can use one of my friend’s addresses to register, I’m not really comfortable asking for their credit card information.  I really want to go to either one of the Tokyo Dome concerts (August 2nd or 3rd) or the Ishikawa concerts (July 20th or 21st)  because I will be in Ishikawa staying with friends in late July and in my new permanent residence in Saitama by early August. Going to the Ishikawa concert would be my first choice because it’d probably be more convenient for me and maybe less expensive.

Ideally, I’d hope that someone would like to attend one of these concerts with me, but if you are just willing to help me buy tickets, that’s cool too. I’ll take what I can get (insanely expensive seats, crap seats, insanely expensive crap seats, whatever) as long as I can go. I really MUST go to one of these concerts. You probably don’t even understand how important this is to me. I’m willing to generously compensate you for your time and effort if you can help me. This may well be my only chance to see KAT-TUN live, and I think you’d be surprised what I’m willing to pay to make that happen.  Leave me a comment or an AIM address and we can work something out. I’m looking for a serious commitment here, not just “well maybe” so I can just stop freaking out about this. If I can’t go I may fall into a deep depression and never blog again!! You wouldn’t want to be responsible for that now, would you?

I think I’m officially a crazy fan,

Hi. Just a quick note to correct something that I erroneously posted earlier. Apparently the limited editions of KT’s new single will not have solo versions of the title track as c/ws but rather entirely new solo songs! That’s way better, isn’t it? BTW, the version with Jin’s solo (and Tanaka’s) is currently leading in pre-sales by a pretty large margin. Kame (and Taguchi’s) is in second with Ueda/Maru’s in third. All three limited editions are currently ahead of NewS’ new single which will be releasing a week earlier. Tehehehe. KAT-TUN wins, as usual!

To error is human?

Since there aren’t many Johnny’s blogs in our blogosphere, unlike my other blog, I feel obligated to provide important news here (no, not NewS, just news). So this is another short post to announce that KT shall have a new single out on May 14th! The title is “Don’t U Ever Stop”, and it is described as being less-rockish than their most recent singles and more dancy. There will be four editions: Regular, and then for each limited edition the c/w tracks will be solo versions of the song by two of the members. Way to think of new and creative ways to suck money out of the fans Johnny’s! You’re still a bit behind AKB48, but you’re getting there.

My one complaint, of course, is where the heck is our new album?!?! This marks their 4th single released since they had an album, and they have a concert tour coming up. Don’t concert tours usually revolve around albums in Johnny’s land? What are they going to name the thing if they can’t title it after an album??? The Johnny’s naming department is not known for its creativity. New concert? Let’s name it after the album. New group? Oh, I don’t know, how about we make some kind of word out of their initials?

This brings me back to Arashi again, because I can’t help but wonder what they would have been called had they not been formed before the acronym naming system was widely implemented. Let’s see… O, S, A, N, and M

So, Man? (I do wonder about Jun on occasion), No Mas! (no more! probably not the message they want to send), O-Mans (oh man..), M’naos (a tribute to the city in Brazil), Snaom (fun to say! we’re getting closer), Moans (YES!)

Yep. That’s it. Arashi could very well have been called MOANS. Think about that the next time you shake you head at the fact that there’s a Johnny’s Jr group called KIS-MY-FT2 (pronounced Kiss my foot too)

Don’t U Ever Stop (reading this blog. lololol)

Okay, so this isn’t a proper post (I’m working on something really fun though) but just a celebration post to announce that KAT-TUN will be having a new concert tour this summer!!! And, it’s starting in July which means that more likely than not I will be able to go to one of them. YAYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!! I’ll post dates and whatnot when I find them. In the meantime, does anyone know the best way to buy concert tickets while one is actually in Japan? I’m willing to pay any price short of my first born son (and even that is negotiable).
