ONE OK ROCK Live in Manila [01.19.2016]

Last Tuesday, January 19, 2016, a magical night happened, well, at least for me and for ONE OK ROCK PH fans. Our dreams had finally come true. I'm relatively a new fan to the OOR fandom and I feel so lucky that I got to see them sooner than I expected. ONE OK ROCK "35xxxv" Asia Tour Live in Manila is one of the most memorable concerts I have ever been to. And it was a good thing that I didn't miss this chance... cause if I did, then I've missed half of my life.

It's been 5 days and yet I still have hangover. I just can't seem to move on. LOL. I can still remember everything that happened that day. From the queuing to the meet and greet event up to the show proper. If there was only a rewind button, I would have pushed the buttons over and over again to relive that moment. And If I could only turn back the time, I would have done better in meeting ONE OK ROCK at the meet and greet event. LOL. The guys look so unreal. I mean, I know they're handsome and all, but pictures did not give them enough justice. The boys are much, much good-looking in person especially the guitarist and leader Toru Yamashita. His good looks are out of this world! Oh my, God! I just cannot!! Tomoya Kanki, the drummer, has a smile that was oh-so-cute! His eyes were even smiling too. And Ryota Kohama (bassist), he is an absolute bae. I never thought he's that guwapo in person. He has a small face and a nice smile.

I wish I could have said something better than, "Welcome to Manila!" while shaking their hands. Especially to my dearest Takahiro Moriuchi (vocalist). All I can say that time is, "Oh, my God!" repeatedly while looking into his eyes and with a smile on my face. I definitely look like an idiot. I was stunned and starstrucked. Taka is too good to be true. Aside from being much good looking in person, he is nice as well. I couldn't form the right words to say, the words I have long wanted to tell him. Puwedeng take two?

Anyway, ONE OK ROCK is really good performing live. And I feel so happy that I got the chance to see them and this time, I’m not watching them on DVD or YOUTUBE but LIVE. Taka is the best vocalist I have ever seen. His voice is undeniably beautiful, it was amazing hearing him live. Even if he was moving around the stage, he can still hit the high notes and there was never a chance that he was out of tune. He sounds much alike in their records. And Toru, Tomoya and Ryota are also good musicians. They were all in sync. I wish I know how to describe how their performance went. But I can’t grasp the proper words into my head. Haha! All I can say is, they are GREAT! They totally rocked our world. Totally the best concert experience!
He just took my breath away. So unreal.

And oh yeah, I think they also love their Filipino fans and the Filipino crowd based on their Instagram posts. They said that the Philippines is the loudest, most energetic, number one crowd they have ever seen! Wow! We are very much overwhelmed! It’s good to know that they enjoyed being here as much as we enjoy their music and their concert. They said that they will come back again in Manila and we couldn’t wait for that! Next time, I promise to do better in the meet and greet if there ever has one again. And I will push the Pulp Royalty again, of course. That is hashtag goals. 

ONE OK ROCK- san!

I just hope to move on from this though, so I could get back to reality and with my life. Haay.
