    This is a fan club for ONE OK ROCK and Japanese audiences - thank you everyone for watching and giving love to this wonderful band!
    Edit: I've also now learned the process for choosing the 1k 18 year olds to participate in the performance and I'm still impressed (a video audition, some practices with a choral director, and boom the real thing) and my statement stands (see the second video of We Are from the Japan Dome) Japanese crowds are the best.

    These 1000 kids where handpicked by the band via audition tapes. They were broken up into groups with an instructor, given specific music to learn and practice prior to the performance. They were basically organized and trained as a choir. I'd say it turned out rather well.

      OOR created "We Are" for 18 Festival. Historical moment in Japan. Changed voting right from 20 to 18. Which means Japan consider 18 is old enough/adult to make their own choice/ vote for their leaders to shape their own country.

      I always wonder why Westerners claim they are the best crowd. Japanese fans and Western fans are friends who like the same band, right? You guys are like kids who claim that their momma loves them the most.
      most JP band says that each country reacts differently. They don't say which is better. It's always fun for any band to see different reactions. Bands usually say things that please their fans in the countries where they perform.

    I went to see One Ok Rock on the Luxury Disease NA tour and I'm not gonna lie, I was not having a good day. I drove 4 hours to Cleveland and admittedly was too excited to sleep properly beforehand, so I was running on maybe 2 hours of sleep and a monster. Then I stood in line for several hours. By the time the opening acts started I had been awake for over 12 hours. I was exhausted. They were good acts but by the time the second openers played their set I couldn't even move to jump around and no matter what I did I could not stop yawning (i felt so bad, they were good i was just. so tired). I was honestly scared I wouldn't even enjoy the show.
    Then the lights go down for the final time that night. The introduction starts playing, the band walks out, and it's like I was never tired in the first place. The crowd goes *ballistic*. They're singing along so loud it rocks the venue and I am too. Suddenly exhaustion is a foreign concept, something so far away from this moment, right now, even though I was about to die on my feet not 5 minutes earlier.
    It was the best concert I've ever been to. There is something out of this world about this band and I'm so happy to see more and more people like you find them too. Thank you so much for your reaction!!

    About the crowd thing. People were chosen by One Ok Rock themselves. They sent in random videos. Some were painting, some were dancing etc. Then they got lessons with vocal coach who taught them their harmonies and they ended up in special performance. So controlling the crowd was different than the usual crowd. However Taka has the ability to control even large, random crowds as they do during their concerts. People are making circles and stuff, and no one gets hurt. It's a skill on itself. However, if we go back to this performance, the job behind this gig was enormous. And my respect for One Ok Rock grew even more when I saw the behind the scenes video.
    About the crowd singing their hearts out... They are very passionate about the song itself since OOR are almost like spokesmen for young generation. Their messages resonate with everyone there.
    Back again to We Are. They also have the acoustic version from "Day to Night Acoustic Sessions". I would suggest hearing that too. They are versatile artists for sure.

I'm really excited to hear it😍I think OOR's best attraction is live performances where they create songs together with the audience. Of course, it has many other attractions as well. From that point of view, the recommended song ①Clock Strikes→In this song, TAKA uses magic to bring people watching RUclips to the stadium. ②TakeWhatYouWant→Ambitions Japan Dome Tour 2018→The audience kept silence for a long time, and devoted love for more than 2 minutes in the necessary scene, the sense of unity on the stage is wonderful.

Ambitions Japan Dome Tour 2018 was one of my personal favorite, I didn't like the wrist light when I received it entering Yafuoku Dome in Fukuoka but seeing all the wrist lights became galaxy just made me goosebumps for the entire show. That was the largest venue I've been to and I still can't believe I'm being able to go to Tokyo Dome this year when coronavirus is still around.

    The bit on the rasp is very well explained (I was an unclean vocalist for a long while, knowing how much air to put out, and the amount of pressure required is a similar concept as I used a Vocal Fry). I'd be incredibly surprised, no, shocked, maybe even a little in awe if you haven't heard of Ado before (in awe because if you haven't, you'll get to experience something everyone wishes they could again and again, discovering Ado). If you hadn't (I'm assuming you have at this point), I'd highly recommend checking out Usseewa and the Live Version.

    By all means, more ONE OK ROCK reactions! We want to hear and see it!
    More pop music. More acoustic songs. More marvelous noisy rock.
    Your response and timing in the cool part of your song is donpical to my thoughts.
    Basically, we play rock, but we play it with strings in the background, or just acoustic instruments. The excellence of their playing technique becomes more apparent.
    I know the conversation has gone to talking about them, but I love your reactions too. I think reactions are all about timing and facial expressions. Comments are great, but I really like to see how you felt about the performance.

    I called music like this Motivation -Song's.
    Because it moves me.
    And takes me with them through this musical journey.
    But...
    This can only be the second best motivational Song.
    Because my absolute favourite motivational Song still is - and forever will be: Queensryche - Take Hold of The Flame (the LIVE Version from 1984 in Tokyo (also Japan,huh? ^^)
    The vocalist name is : Geoff Tate.
    And the Gods are with him at this time!
    This e5 Note!
    This truly is how an e5 should SUNG & SOUND!
    Without a doubt...
    I've never ever anything like this.
    So he's the greatest Vocalist of the past 500 year's, isn't he?
    Btw..
    He's a Baritone.
    It this video here makes you feel to cry...
    Wich is absolutely ok.
    Because that's it, what real music can do.
    And what it always was made for - from beginning on.
    Than Queensryche will make you explode.
    In a million pieces.
    But at the very end, they will put of all this pieces together again.
    So you will completely new and refreshed.
    Here we go...

    You know they rehearsed the 18th fest. performance, right? xd don’t want you to think they didn’t, OOR asked fans to send tapes of and about themselves, then they weote a song and choose and invited 1k fans. but it was premiere of this song, and fans had I think like 3 rehearsals woth a choir master. Still very impressive, they are not professional singers, and they did amazing ❤️ but it wasn’t just spontaneous xD well, I mean since it was a song written for a choir and fans know that - all OOR songs have pretty big audiences response - but this one especially xD
    I’m glad you mentioned it, they do really fill the whole stage! I’m sure good filmmaking and lighting crew plays a role, but in their japanese shows, the stage is always huge, and they never seem too small for it. And honestly, the stages for their festival/western shows, always seem too small, not able to contain them xD The stage presences is immaculate. And did you know this performance had like 50-60k ppl.
    Ah, someone asked if OOR tours in europe: they do indeed! They have Muse and Japan tours planned so far, but I expect Europe tour announcement this/next year. See you there 😄

(Did they ever canceled a show, ever? Not even for a taifun*) - I mean, I’m all for Taka geting rest and geting healthy, but what’s done is done - could you imagine such performance while sick? 😲
