[quote="NekoKai"] I did not go, there was a scheduling conflict on his part, and I didn't feel like being in Paris alone.  You could post a link in that thread, though it's kind of old, so maybe just in the H!P spam thread? :ph34r: [/quote]   That's too bad.  I do know how you feel.  When ...

[quote="NekoKai"] I feel like Koharu has always had a sort of deer in the headlights look, and DMM didn't fall apart, per se, it's just that they're adults with children and it's more of for fun/nostalgia than an actual career group.   We have a thread from when it was announced , and a lo...

Here's an actual video from the event, now this is a good reason to use youtube.

Good stuff!  I always enjoyed Mikan.  Thanks for the the downloads as well!

[quote="Anderei"] I went back and looked at young pictures of her and she already had double eyelids. You can see them more clearly on her photobook cover . I know she had her teeth done, but I don't recall any jaw work. [/quote]   Okay.  I can't find a photo of what I am looking for to sh...

[quote="Shoujo Q"] And that my friends, is one one HELL of a set list. And lolz for ending off with Aruiteru. (I love that song, I'm not sorry.)   I wonder how come C-ute got to perform again, but not Berryz?   40. Aruiteru / Everyone[/spoilerbox] [/quote]   You mean there are fans who don...

It's really sudden but C-ute live on 29th December at Odaiba FujiTV has been announced" Details-> http://www.fujitv.co.jp/fuyufes/event_cx/stage1.html   Has anyone heard about this already?   Does anyone know if this will be on a satellite relay so we can pick it up world-wide?  Youtube?  UStre...

[quote="Anderei"] She had a public facebook page? [/quote]   Yes!  It was really Ai Takahashi.  There are many imposters out there for all the idols, but this was the real Ai.   Even her fiance came on a few times and laughed at how "desperate" some lonesome fans must be.   I had...

Some months ago Ai posted she was engaged on her facebook page.  One day she closed her facebook account without any notice.  Poof!  Gone!  I had not heard anything else about her engagement until today.    Ai is such a sweetheart!  I wish her nothing but the best.  I was very happy to learn she is ...

[quote="Anderei"] You can watch her audition here, Mizura. She wasn't very good but I think with the right training she could have turned out less awful than she did. And yeah, she was always fairly popular with fans as far as I know. [/quote]   After watching Koharu's audition video, I ha...

I have been trying to find anyway to get in on a live stream.  I wrote to one of my facebook friends about it.  Lucky him!  He sees so many H!P concerts in Tokyo.  Even he is having a hard time finding a ticket.    Quote:  "Hello, Sheikh-san! ●Even if H!P plans Lived Streams for Countdown (free...

[quote="Mizura"] I'm glad to see she is doing something again. She had some interesting old songs :) [/quote]   Yes, she just recently celebrated her 25th anniversary as a recording artist.  Maybe that is why she is putting out so many songs right now.   https://scontent-b-dfw.xx.fbcdn.net...

Thank you.  I will remember that in the future.

Chisato Moritaka is on a roll.  She has been releasing a new song once a week for a while now.

Here is a new release by Destrose.  It is called "Rin".   I tried to edit my original post to include this video, but for some reason I cannot put anything underneath the last photo above.

I saw Anita Mui star in many Jackie Chan movies.  I never heard any of her music.  It saddens me to learn how she passed with cervical cancer.  I see her last stage performance as a heroic act.  She had to have known her fate before the concert, yet performed in spite of it.

Oh, so this is how you introduce a new group.  Impressive!

I like you, Sheikh. Welcome. :P

Showraniy, that is the nicest thing anyone has said to me all day.  Thank you!
 
Arcobaleno, Thank you too!!  (I don't know how to do a multiple quote after I posted the first one yet). 
 
Damn!  I hit the jackpot today!

Me and Mrs. Shiekh watched Gravity a few weeks ago.   We saw it in IMax 3D.  WOW!!!  It was our first film ever in IMAX 3D and it was a real wild ride!  You will love this, if you are into space movies.   We sat close enough the screen took up most of our field of vision.  Once the movie bagan it be...

Thank you Petit Melon!  Learning the corporate culture here is a little tuff for me.  What I am about to say it not a ploy for sympathy, I am just telling you how things are on my end.  About a year ago I was hit in a car accident.  The docs released me from their care yesterday.  They are saying th...

You're doing it wrong.

Aw, nuts!  (lol!)  Please tell me how to do it right.
