Shiina Hekiru Tour 2006 – Zepp Nagoya 4/30 (followup)
When I look back, these are the things I will remember about this live.
1) The applause at that first MC, which started politely, seemed to taper down, then swelled and wouldn’t stop, kept going as everyone clapped harder and harder and Hekiru looking suprised and happy at this unpredented outpouring of appreciation
2) Seeing Hekiru running around the stage during the encore, and feeling awfully envious, because I wanted to run around too!
3) The way she performed Color, where she put every single bit of energy into her gestures while looking like she was having the time of her life
4) The Doraemon guitar! And the helicopter made from chopsticks and a paper cup!
And more… The way Hekiru looked at the audience, so carefully and deliberately, so that for 5 seconds you felt that she was singing to you and you alone… The way she gave that shout at the end of one of the songs… How the audience sang for her when she forgot the words to Kaze ga Fuku Oka, and all the stupid puns and great lines.
This was a really special live. Don’t want to ever forgot…
