You guys thanks for finally sharing this review.
I'm so jealous of that hoodie, it's so cool.
I can't believe you didn't react to BxMxC, I'm pretty sure sure i told you about it.
Kinda sad the crowd didn't follow SuMetal's command on wall of death but i guess that's pretty much what happen when you play a live concert sharing the audience with another band, some of them who are still there to meet BM for the first time know nothing about BM crowd participation, unfortunately.
When doing World Tour live concerts they play a standard setlist with a couple of songs switching here and there, but no encore except on special live concerts such "Legend" or when finishing the leg tour just like they did at the CZcams Theater in California and playing IDZ as an encore.
Much love and hope to see you around enjoying more BM songs. Kitsune up!🦊🤘❤️
Come to Indonesia, if and when they ever come back here again, we'll show you how Babymetal's crowds truly looks like :D
Or any Asian crowds actually, I've seen fancams from their Asian leg of their tour, and all of them are fantastic.
I saw them live in the US, and I have seen the light. I need to see them live in Japan or Indonesia. Bucket List Item!!
I'm happy you finally got this video up, but sad that your experience was sub-par. This was a good video.
I went to Babymetal's Brisbane (Australia concert) and there was only one support act who was relatively unknow., so the whole crowd was there to see Babymetal. So, I wasn't surprised to see the crowd go nuts for Babymetal with the crowd responding to every command from the girls. There was wall of death and Circle Pit for perhaps every second song and almost constant crowd surfing. It was brilliant.
Babymetal weren't checking their in-ears when they kept going off-stage, that is part of the show. It allows them to catch a bit of rest between songs because they are so active. In their big shows in Japan, you don't notice this reset happening as the lights dim and they move to different platforms or positions on stage and almost every song will have an intro. Their moving off-stage kind of replicates these breaks but is more noticeable on smaller stages.
Do Babymetal do encores? That's complicated. In Brisbane we got a two-song encore. perhaps as a reward for the crowd, but I am pretty sure that they didn't do any encores on the US leg of the world tour. In Japan, they don't generally do encores (any band) as it is often considered rude to ask a performer to do more after they have already worked so hard. Asking for an encore is sort of like saying to the artists that you think they haven't done enough work. So, there is a cultural predisposition for Japanese bands to not do encores.
Finally its here. I’ve been waiting for this forever xd. Too bad the crowd didn’t live up to your expectations 😢
I saw them in Houston where they opened their US tour and the crowd was also mixed (probably a little more DK fans) but did pretty well tbh. I found d the lineup pretty strange, especially with DK and their content paired with BM didn’t made a lot of sense to me.
But tbf the low energy crowd was the same in Leipzig when Babymetal played with Sabaton, since the majority of attendees were Sabaton fans. On the other hand, a day before, in Berlin, the crowd was fantastic and super high energy.
One thing is for sure, if you go to a Japan headline show, that is on a whole other level. I was lucky enough to attend the two Legend MM shows in Yokohama and those were both phenomenal from all prospectives. The crowd, the band, the girls, the production…everything was nuts! 😂
I can’t really pick a favourite song to see live, but BxMxC is for sure up there. It hits so much harder live and Su’s rapping skills combined with her vocal abilities are just insane! ❤
Glad you guys enjoyed the concert! I think a lot of venues had the same issues with overcapacity due to overselling. I saw them in Dallas, TX in an even smaller venue than the colorado venue and everyone was smushed together to the point that some people in front had to jump over the barricade to avoid getting crushed. It was my friend's first babymetal concert too and he was dissapointed with the crowd as well. Hopefully their team learns from this tour and books bigger venues or avoids overselling.
On a slightly different note, one week before the Dallas concert, i got to see them in Japan during Summer Sonic Festival and both experiences were completely different, no overcrowding, hype crowd, big energy, moshing, and walls of death! It was amazing! Im going back to Summer Sonic this year and im hoping babymetal goes again! My friend will be going with me and im hoping to show him what a real babymetal concert looks like. Might be a tough ask, but if you guys ever get the opportunity to see them live in Japan, please do so! Festivals like the one I went to are easier to attend since you dont need to be a fanclub member and win a lottery to attend, and you get the opportunity to see SO MANY different artists. Your really cant compare their U.S. concerts to their Japan concerts. You will be blown away!
I have the same critisism of their show in Copenhagen where they opened for Sabaton, the sound for Lordi (who played before Babymetal), and Sabaton was fantastic, but the mix was just off for Babymetal, some times you couldn't hear the vocals at all. At one point the sound system completely shut down during the part of Monochrome where Su normally talks a bit to the audience, no one could hear anything and she didn't seem to realise for several minutes that the speakers where not working. It was like someone tripped a breaker and it took probably 5-10 minutes for the show to get going again. It was a real bummer, overall they did a great show though, the sound mix was hardly the bands fault... My favourite live song of theirs is Headbangeeeeerrrrr!!!!!, metali would be cool but it wasn't released yet when i saw them. The crowd kinds sucked there too, BUT, I kind of expected that since they where not the main attraction, most people where old danish Sabaton fans that likely had never heard of them before. 😅
Great review, thanks for finally getting this posted. Love the hoodie ... I have one just like it.😁😎🦊
Yes, Dethklok was a strange pairing given there will be kids going to see BABYMETAL ... but they're doing a couple more shows with them soon in San Francisco I think.
You were very unlucky with the sound I think, their sound is normally so good (look for the review of their show in Manchester in 2020 by Pictures, Noise and Words ... he hadn't heard 'BxMxC' before the show either🤯 ... see what he said about their sound there - and what he said about that was the same in Hammersmith, I can vouch for that).
'BxMxC' was a Japan exclusive track on the third album (as was 'up down left right BBAB', but they have never played that live), but released as a digital single worldwide later on. That always takes the roof off the venue wherever they play it. It (almost certainly) means BABYMETAL Cypher (or BABYMETAL Metal Cypher) ... or does it mean Bring Moa Chicken?🍗
Su taught herself to rap for that song.
Watching fancams from the US tour the crowds varied depending on the location and whether they were predominantly Dethklok or BABYMETAL crowds ... it sounds like you got a mostly Dethklok crowd.
The places with mostly BABYMETAL fans were bouncing the whole time, following Su's instructions and the cues given by Moa and Momoko and joining in with all the chants and choreo etc.
It is luck of the draw when they are co-headlining on which band will have the bulk of the fans, obviously when they are a replacement support band, as happened with their tour as guests of Sabaton in Europe last year, the same applies as their own fans will be in a minority and the headliner's fans may get into it, they may be indifferent and some will be obnoxious elitist gatekeepers.
Seeing BABYMETAL as sole headliners or even better doing their own solo concerts is best and that's where you will have the whole crowd rocking and joining in - we got that with the later Europe and UK tour last year.
Encores ... they did an encore (IDZ) at the very last concerts of the US and then the Europe legs of the tour last year. Mostly they will only do encores at some (not all) of the 'Legend' arena shows in Japan.
I had always wanted to experience 'Headbanger' live - it happened in 2020 and I was absolutely not disappointed.🤘Now - I just want to hear everything they've ever done but I'm happy with whatever they do when I see them live.🦊
I attended multiple shows on this tour and you are largely correct about the crowds. It's partially because of the split billing. It was not a Babymetal crowd. It was a mix of Babymetal and DethKlok fans. The DethKlok fans did not know what to do during the Babymetal songs, some of them refused to do much of anything, then the same thing happened with the Babymetal fans not knowing what to do during the DethKlok set. Of the shows I attended, both Atlanta and St. Louis crowds brought it. Excellent concert cities, especially Atlanta, which always brings it. Whenever Babymetal announces a tour, the first ticket I buy is for the Atlanta show, even though it's a 12 hour drive for me, then plan the rest of the shows around that.
Thankyou for sharing your experience 👊🏽⚡️🤘🏾🦊
Been a BABYMETAL fan since 2012.......never seen them live, unfortunately. Now I'm in my early 40s, I'm determined as ever to finally make it a reality (Yes, I will be in the pits). I already have my first ever trip to Japan booked in early January, hoping the Fox God grants us with a live show in that timeframe.
Babymetal knows its fanbase. I blame the pairing issue on them more than the parents. I just saw them in Yokohama and I would most definitely suggest flying to see them in Japan if you are able. Those shows are completely insane. Seeing Syncopation live was mind blowing to me.. that and Megitsune.
I saw BABYMETAL in concert I think in 2015 before they got really big. It was a small venue I think 2000 people. You are right they are amazing live. Thanks for putting this up and being a BABYMETAL fan.
Hmmm we got to experience two different tours past year in Europe, the first one as an opener for Sabaton and the second one with Babymetal as headliner, and the energy was totally different. In the first shows the crowd was dead during Babymetal because everyone was there for Sabaton, and if you tried to do something everyone at your side started to look weird; for the second tour everyone was so into it, following the crowd interactions, singing along...100% opposite experience. 100% better too. I wish you can experience a Babymetal headliner some day too. But you never know, they did two shows in London in the headliner tour and from what I heard on day 1 the crowd was dead and the second one was really good. It just depends on who it's there that day.
I do think their is an other thing I noticed, when they do 2 shows back to back a second day crowd is usually better.
I was at the first London concert - the crowd was not dead at all (ask Martinmetal about the crowdsurfer who landed on his head😵💫), but it is a very old venue - previously a tram shed I think - with strange acoustics, so the second night was probably better because any kinks had been ironed out, not because of a better crowd.
You are absolutely right about the difference between the crowds when they are headlining and when they are the support act ... most of the crowd for the Sabaton show in Wembley - enough said.
@@Grington300 Grington, it's not some 'tram shed', it's actually a historic building (I looked it up while standing in line), it was a roundhouse for turning around train locomotives, it's literally in the name. 🙂 It's from 1847. That's about 20 years after the first trains.
@@autohmae That was it, you're right (I knew it was something to do with the railway or trams or something on rails with a turntable of some sort ... hence Roundhouse of course).
@@Grington300 Hmm I don't know, that was the word around when the shows happened. I was both in Barcelona and Madrid and in both shows the crowd was good. Different mood tho, Madrid an arena and Barcelona a packed Concert Hall (that should have been an arena too, the tickets sold out in less than a week).
The Orlando crowd was the exact same way also babymetal went on before decathlon here.
Well and well. 🤣 or 😈?! I am the 74 year old American woman living in Sweden who is subscribed to your BTS channel. I trust you two. Utterly. So I thought, why not? Now, I have had some minimal contact with Metal - namely Kiss - long ago and far away. I gotta say, I’m really appreciating your reactions and the glimpses of the performances. It’s fun! But please, can you educate an old lady!! Just exactly WHAT is a “Wall of Death”??
Gladly A WALL of DEATH is a call to form MOSH PITS at alot of METAL shows. Just think of MOSES holding up his staff and parting the red sea. I hope that helps with you question.
During a song or before a song, the crowd will move away from each other to form an empty circle in the middle. Then, at a specific point, everyone runs towards the center of that open circle. That is a wall of death. With Babymetal, especially in Japan, it then becomes a circle pit. That is where everyone runs around in a circle.
Watch "Road of Resistance"- Live in Japan and you will see what a Mosh Pit is like (=> with BABYMETAL soon becomes a circle pit)
I am a 76 year old geezer living in DC, but was running around the circle pit, twirling a towel in the air @ Makuhari Jan. 2023!
A Wall of Death is a maneuver that the crowd does at some metal shows where they open up a wide area in the middle of the floor and form two lines on either side, then when the song begins, they charge at each other like two armies clashing on a medieval battlefield and then it turns into a mosh pit. This short video shows a good example of a wall of death in action - czcams.com/video/0di86QbH-9Q/video.html
Awesome!!! Took yall long enough 🤣😉. Sound's like Denver needs to step up their crowd game. Let's go Denver!
They'll usually do some sort of encore for major arena shows, but I'm not sure if that's the case for being on tour.
🤘🦊
At last 😁 great vlog i watched a lot of fancam footage of US tour and it definitely was different venue to venue i noticed a lot of fans i think DeathKlock stood motionless during BabyMetal but The One are always early and filled the front probably why a lot going on near front . It was same at Wembley with Sabaton tour we where small in number but loud i was sat ( first time in seats and last ) in amongst Sabaton fans who sat on their hands but i made up with my singing along 😱 twirling my towel ( tshirt really ) and singing along to ROR much to their discomfort i sound like a ships foghorn 🤣 The Roundhouse shows in November where so much better 1st night was great even though i supported a crowd surfer with my head and 2nd night was even better if i had gone to just one night i would not of complained about either . I took a few video's each night as i was to busy enjoying myself and you can hear the fans having a great time .
Check them out on my CZcams page 👍😁🤘🏼🦊🤘🏼
I was going to get tickets to Sterling Heights, but didn't, and I'm regretting it so so so much
Great vlog❤ Glad to hear you guys awsome time and enjoyed the concert 🎉
BM usually dose encores final day of the tours.
Thank you! Ahh we seeeee!!! ❤️🤘🔥🦊
I saw BabyKlok in Minneapolis. They were so good live that I wanted to go again the next day.
Babymetal does encores that are usually 2 or 3 songs long
What year are you talking about?
@@rickwagner- 2023 in Sydney we got Metal Kingdom and Ijime, Dame, Zettai as an encore. They also played Iine earlier. They were the headliners.
@@r1learner178 Nice. These days one song is the usual encore. I haven't seen 'Ijime, Dame, Zettai' live since the Wiltern show in 2016, where it was also the encore song.
@@rickwagner- Yeah, it was great, so was Iine earlier (supposedly they hadn't played that recently either).
I saw BM 3 times on the Babyklok tour, and the crowd was pretty mixed at all of them. It seemed pretty evenly split between Dethklok and Babymetal fans. I'm not sure how much crossover between those 2 groups there is. I watched the whole Dethklok show the first time, it isn't my cup of tea, so the other 2 shows I went and got drinks during their set and got in their pit a little bit, but didn't watch much of it. I'm sure a lot of Dethklok fans probably felt the same about Babymetal. The 2 LA shows there were walls of death and a good sized pit the whole time for Dethklok and BM. The other show I went to, the crowd was less active, small pit and tiny wall of death. Either way, Babymetal is going to give you a good show even if not all the crowd is into it. I just went to Japan to see BM for Legend MM. It was solo BM shows, so everybody is there to see BM. It was amazing.
You were at the wrong fillmore. The fillmore minneapolis show a week prior the crowd was insane, go check some fancams of that haha. But please dont let that denver crowd discourage you. It was hit and miss the whole tour.
Im going to see the babyklok extra show in san fran in two weeks knowing the crowd could be either amazing or poor. Hopefully your next babymetal show will have the good crowd
Ima go see babymetal in San Francisco on the 25th of this month and I’m so excited hopefully the crowd isn’t boring 😭 but also glad you got to see them live 🙌🏽 question was there any merch being sold?
I almost went to the Denver show. Since I grew up there and still have family there too. Decided I didn't want to deal with the airfare and travel. So I saw them here in Las Vegas which was a GREAT Show. And then I drove to Los Angeles to see the first show there too. Also a good show but I feel Vegas was better. I was even surrounded by Dethklock fans and they had a blast during BABYMETAL. 🤘🦊🤘
BABYMETAL has done encores before. Vegas Didn't get one and My LA show didn't but they did a one song encore on the 2nd LA show.
tankyu upload BM love❤😂
I envy you guys 🦊 I always miss out on babymetal tickets.😭
You guys really need to go and see a giant BabyMetal concert in Japan, with a live audience following instructions, jumping, doing mosh pit, etc., and with the amazing stages and sound engineers, it happened to me once when I went to see Korn in concert, even though it sounded incredibly good, the audience seemed like it was a cemetery, terribly disappointing on the part of the audience. 🦊 And please react to BMC ¡PLEASEE!
10:56 Fine!! I'll listen to BxMxC again
Glad you got to see a Babymetal show!!! I had a few friends that saw the Babyklok show....They really should have just have Babymetal perform first and then Deathklok, so that the parents who brought their kids to see babymetal, can take off before all the adult content kicked in.... Amuse/Koba kinda dropped the ball on that one..... The Babymetal show I went to last year was in Hong Kong, sadly the song Metali didn't dropped when the show was there, so we didn't get to hear Momo's scream. 😁😁😁😁🤘🦊🤘
Here in Phoenix, Babymetal went on before Dethklok. Probably because there was a good amount of young kids in the crowd.
@@azjtaylor no, the reason is simple: it was a co-headline tour and thus it was Babymetal last one night and DethKlok the next.
The sound was also quite bad with their BABYKLOK Tour in Philly.
But the sound was amazing at their Makuhari concert in January (2023). SU-METAL's voice cut through the huge arena with clarity and the balance of all instruments were amazing!
I agree, the crowd was dead at the BABYKLOK one, but was totally insane @ Makuhari. I guess it may be difficult to have two different group fans together in the same arena...
Went to Las Vegas concert. Metali was my favorite Babymetal song of the night.
I'm Japanese, and I've seen BABYMETAL live many times in Japan, and their set list has been decided from the beginning whether they'll encore or not, and the BABYKLOK Tour has a set list that doesn't include encores. This has nothing to do with how well the audience is doing.
In cases where there is an encore, there is a pause before the last two songs, as if the performance has ended, and they act as if they have responded to the encore. That's why the last song is 100% decided, and there is no improvisational addition.
Timing 16:10 - Suzuka gives a friendly shout to the crowd in her voice, but in an ABSOLUTELY EVEN TONE, while bouncing around the stage…
I think that its diaphragm can be used to break ice in the Arctic. She is incredible and VERY underrated by the heavy music community. Very sincerely happy for you!
レポートありがとう！とても嬉しいです🍅🍅🍅
👍👍Great video. Thanks for sharing. I will see them live oneday.😊 🦊 🖖❤
Great recap of the show. Really well done and appreciated. I've heard what you said about American audiences before and it's such a shame. Especially when you see the crowds in Japan. Babymetal does not do encores from everything I've heard. Also super shocked to hear about the sound issues. I have just imagined that everything Babymetal does is so meticulous down to the last detail. It's hard to image how the sound could be off.
Little surprised about the size of the venue. But glad u guys got to see them in person!
It would appear that you've kept your word & uploaded the nicely edited concert experience video. Thank you muchly. And in return, as was stated when last we interacted in a section strictly designated for comments, kind of exactly like the one we find ourselves in right now, *I slid in & watched that shit!* 💪🏻😬🤳🏻
🤘🏻🦊 *GJ* & *GG* 💥🦖💨
I guess we were lucky in Sydney. I was worried listening to the support band, but with Babymetal headlining, the sound difference was like night and day. That was a relief. Yeah we got a 2 song encore - Metal Kingdom and Ijime, Dame, Zettai.
Hi! How are u? I'm happy to watch your BABYMETAL live report! I attended the 2-day BABYMETAL live in Yokohama, Japan. It was a very special live for MOMOMETAL's birthday. We Japanese BABYMETAL fans would love for you to join us at the next BABYMETAL live in Japan. We really want to see you! Because we love you! PS, BABYMETAL will not do an encore. Don't worry, it's not a matter of excitement for the Denver crowd. 😅
I flew from Seattle to see those shows. They were fantastic!
I've seen Babymetal live nine times now, and having seen them in Japan and in Australia, I think that Babymetal in Japan beats everything else. The crowd energy is just way better than overseas and the fans are way more knowledgeable about what they are supposed to do for each song. When I saw them in Australia, there were a lot of first timers and curious people who had clearly never been to Babymetal live and didn't know what to do, so it was kind of frustrating.
Babymetal do do encores, but it depends on the set time they have available. I think they didn't do one on the US tour for time reasons. When they came to Australia, they did a two song encore.
The performed 'Ijime, Dame, Zettai' as an encore at the last show of the BABYKLOK tour, on the second night in Los Angeles.
And Encores only happen at the end of a leg, so in the US it only happened in Los Angeles and in Europe in Spain. But we didn't had any problems with crowd interaction in Hamburg.
Dethklok and BabyMetal was an interesting pairing I wondered how the fan base for Dethklok would take to BabyMetal I haven't heard of any incidents of things being thrown on stage so it must have went well At least you got BabyMetal as the closer
I saw the BabyKlok tour in LA and got an encore
Thanks for the wonderful live report🤘🦊♪
I think they go off after every song to grab a sip of water, catch their breath and get ready for the next round of a high-energy song.
They used to do ecores but they were pre planned then they just stopped for some unknown reason. they would do like a fake ending 2/3s through the set then the crowd would chant Uncle Ray (encore) and they would do another four songs or so then have a big ending
Two song encores. Usually Headbanger and IDZ. I think they stopped after 2016 or 2017.
Great review, thanks!
And nice hoodie, I got one like that... well, I got almost everything they were selling at the merch stand 🤣
Yes, I've been to several BABYMETAL concerts (all during the last year) in Europe and Japan. And yes, they are incredible. The way they perform live is something you need to experience live. There are many things you just can't see and feel watching a Blu-ray.
No, they don't do encores. Only on tour leg closers and special concerts (like Legend MM). I traveled from Barcelona to Madrid (about 650km / 400mi) just because of the possibility to get "IDZ" since Madrid was the UK/EU tour final. It totally worth it. 😁
My favorite song live... for someone who has witnessed the "Momobanger" and the "Momotaro"... saying that it's "Syncopation" or "Arkadia" may sound unfair. But life is unfair and I love these songs.
🤘🦊
To be fair, those are solid choices.
: )
Thanks for this video, judging by the timing I'm certain it took a bunch of time to get it up. Congrats !
Yeah, the pairing of Babymetal and DethKlok was OK, but maybe Dethklok should have been last for every show, so the kids could leave before Dethklok.
Going off-stage after every song isn't the normal way. So yeah, maybe they were trying to figure something out.
We were all very happy that Babymetal Death was back as an opening song, but
Ohh, we hadn't gotten around to have you react to BxMxC ? That's kind of on us, I guess ? I think I personally had mentioned it, but I'm certain you got a lot of suggestions.
Yeah, if their is something which is the easiest to disappoint at a Babymetal live show, it's the crowd. The chance that Babymetal isn't at their top performance abilities is extremely low.
But you know what Babymetal does, they keep delivering their high energy show regardless.
Because what can happen is that at the first Babymetal show performs in an area it wouldn't be a good crowd, but they would be the next time around.
Which is kind of sad, because this is the 3rd time Babymetal performed in Denver, the first time was opening for Lady Gaga in 2014, obvious a much shorter set and they only had 1 album out. And probably not as much overlap with this crowd ? 🙂
Babymetal crowds are extremely diverse, for example we've seen lots of kids and older people as well. And lots of different musical/culture backgrounds.
Honestly I think maybe the weebs would have known what to do ? Seems more like their was a mostly DethKlok fans crowd that hadn't checked out Babymetal before ? A bit stunned by what they are seeing.
But it does feel like the 8th member of the band (3+4 on stage + crowd) was missing a bit. Not at their best behavior.
We very much know it can differ, one time in NYC Moametal's microphone was still on when she was off-stage and she said in frustration in Japanese something along the lines of: "I don't understand this crowd".
Yeah, Babymetal setlist is pretty much set and their are only encores at some big shows, but they are pre-planned as well. It's just that they want to do something special with it to fit the show.
The reason is very simple: exhausting.
Not just for those on stage, but if you do participate: the crowd is also exhausted.
Anyway, glad you had fun !
You mentioned Bad Omens, when Babymetal plays the European festival circuit in June they're also going to play a one off show with Bad Omens in France
I saw them at Pittsburgh, PA last year. The crowd was definitely more lively than what was shown from Denver. Unfortunately American crowds are never on the level of a Japanese crowd. Seeing BabyMetal in Japan is on my bucket list lol.
And yeah, BMC absolutely slays live.
The crowd at St Louis was a disappointment also; but much better than the crowd you described. 50% there for Dethklok and 50% for Baby Metal. Baby Metal performed before Dethklok; we and many others left after Baby Metal, No encores; I don't think they do them. But as you say, Baby Metal performed their butts off; gave 110% effort. Love them so much!!!! Hopefully they performed 'MAYA" at your concert; that song blew the roof off of the venue. Bucket List; see BabyMetal live in Japan.
The crowd is often a cointoss. It was the same in the consequential EU tour that they made. The crowd was so bad in The Netherlands that they dropped Wargasm's singer :D.
Luckily the crowds were great in the two shows I did (Brussels and Strasbourg).
They never do encores. Except when they do, it's always planned.
I saw them 3 times in 2023 in Germany. My favorite song to see live was all of them. Seriously, it is not possible to pick one.
So jelly on the hoodie score. At the Oct 12 So Cal show they were either out of them or they wern't avail for some other reason. I have to agree about the sound....It took them a couple of songs to fix the snare. Which was obnoxious on the ears.
I saw them in Grand Rapids in September and the girls left the stage after almost every song there too, so I don't think they were trying to fix their sound problems in your show.
Ok good to know! We were not sure. Maybe they just like to do full stage resets between the songs for planning purposes with the choreography🦊🔥🤘
🦊🦊🦊
So how surprised were you that SU started rapping during BMC? 😆
I was there. I was on the rail for the whole show and yes the crowd was kind of dead. I blame it partly on the lineup. Honestly having to sit through Dethklok really killed my energy. Dethklok was such a total mismatch with Babymetal and had such negative energy it kind of killed me. Plus it was really packed and was pretty hard to make a pit without getting kids pushed around. And yes there were a fair number of kids there. Most of the Dethklok fans didn't give a crap about Babymetal.
not jalous.................. grrrrrr, anyway happy for u 😃
👍 👍
Great job guys and glad you enjoyed it.
BxMxC LIVE HQ pro shot (not the MV) is the one to react to
Until next time
Septa didn't end up in jail so that was a bonus.
🍅💀🍅
🤘🏼🦊🤘🏼Saw them in NY, crowd was amazing
The way you describe the crowd comes unexpected. I have never seen that with a BABYMETAL crowd. The fact that it was packed until the end probably means that (somewhat unexpectedly) the Dethklok fans didn't leave before BABYMETAL's set, which might be part of it. But even then I don't really understand it. Even if it's not the band you came for, at least when they ask to raise your hand, just raise your f***ing hand. It doesn't hurt. Well, I guess that means you have to go again soon for a second experience.
I was about to ask what you thought about seeing them in such a (relatively) small venue compared to the big Japanese shows that you had seen (on screen) before. But I think that's a moot point now, if the crowd was so disappointing.
I wouldn't say that only the parents that brought their children are to blame, assuming that they didn't take their kids to see Dethklok, but BABYMETAL. It's not new that there are young kids in BABYMETAL's audience, so pairing them with Dethklok wasn't really the best decision on the management's part. OK, parents probably should have checked beforehand, but it wasn't entirely unreasonable to expect a sensible pairing.
BABYMETAL often do two songs or so as an encore, but mainly at the bigger shows. But I'm pretty sure it's all decided beforehand, not on the spot depending on the crowd. The Fox God doesn't leave anything to chance. I would assume that they didn't do it mainly because of the co-headlining concept.
I think the only encore song for the entire BABYKLOK tour was 'Ijime, Dame, Zettai' at the last show, on the second night in Los Angeles.
@@rickwagner- OK, but then the tour was rather unusual in that regard, wasn't it?
@@MacTaipan The encores have been pretty unpredictable for a while. They're more likely at a big arena show or on the last date of a tour.
Minneapolis. Awesome. Crowd was good. Metali live as it is designed for this. Bought the same hoodie. . lol!
Love your reactions! Thank you.
🤘🦊🤘
Crowds in Japan are not passive. Metal shows can get really wild. I've seen Baby-Metal in the States and in Japan. I love Pa-pa-ya live when everyone swings their towels.
I've seen Babymetal 25 times including Tokyo Dome. It'll be 27 times in two weeks when I see them again in SF. And as someone with experience in BM concerts, my advice is to never see them if they are co-headlining or second bill if you want to get the full BM experience. Sharing a bill with a band that's not even similar is very unfortunate. Only two tours have disappointed me ever. This Dethklok co-headlining bullshit, and 2018 when they hit us with no Yui. The audience dead? Yeah....I wonder why. Who thought this was a good idea? I felt bad for the parents who brought their kids and they had to experience YucKlok 🤮. And until you go to a "real" Babymetal show, with ALL Babymetal fans, you'll be missing out. Cause this is what you get. Half ass audiences unfortunately. Or maybe it's just Denver...🤷. Which is why I ALWAYS go for barrier and go crazy. Up front you get to interact with the girls, do a proper Headbang, and ACTUALLY see the Kami band. Mosh pit not big enough? Then get in there and make it bigger!
Denver is sad... So sad😢. Texas brought it😏😙😉.
Well... Those guys that DID Mosh had fun, huh?
13:45 your theory is wrong. Very wrong. True Babymetal fans are NOT passive. I think it was just... Denver. Because at one man Babymetal shows, the front rows are the hardcore. The VIP's. The ones there to try to get Moa to headbang with you. Rows three on back are there to Mosh and crowd surf. And don't even get me started on Japanese concerts and audiences. It's a whole other level over there. They put us to shame here. I just think you went to a really REALLY dead audienced show. And I blame Dethklok and whoever came up with this stupid idea of a tour. .... And yes I'm still going to the BABYKLOK show in SF regardless. Cause Babymetal are worth sitting through the 🤮 of Dethklok. And this time no One-Man-Show Richardson (tg), but Dragonforce opening! A REAL BAND!! OMG!!!😂
P.S. One man Babymetal shows have the coolest Mosh pits ever. And in Japan they're more circle pits than mosh pits. They're not aggressive, kick your face in, type of pits. They're more the smile and jump, and friendly moshing type. It's a Moa Mosh!!!😂 You'd fit in just fine. You just need to go to an exclusive headlining show. And one day, a trip to Japan. I feel like you need to connect with the BM community a little more. There's so much you're missing. After parties, queue discussions, fan groups.
As for encores... They used to. When they were younger, during the Yui era. Ijime Dame Zettai was their encore song. Later it was changed to Road of Resistance. Nowadays, they only do encores in their big arena shows and some big solo shows.
They've changed A LOT since the Yui era. It's a lot more "produced" and not as raw as it used to be. The Kami don't get their spotlight anymore like they used to. Kami solos are.... different now. It's a different vibe. But I think that's what's made this journey so exciting. It's constantly changing and new.
P.P.S. Favorite all time performance i saw live? Sis Anger, Seattle 2016, front row center barrier. Still lives in my memory clear as if it were yesterday. 🥹
it is pretty divided crowd between babymetal and dethklok but somehow the dethklok crowd didnt show a good action too haha
It was a pretty evenly divided crowd between Dethklok and Babymetal so that probably had a lot do do with the crowd being dead. If there are a lot of people around you who are not fans of your band its easy to get 'shy' and not want to get too crazy. There are also those who will refuse to participate because it's 'Not my Band!!'.
No, the first song in evety normal concert, when they are 3 metals is Babymetal Death. They were taught to use Stage Persona and this is obviously their predered Method to find their Personas. When I saw them the last time they only had their usual 3 to 4 songs Breaks and we had no problems with the sounds. Ok and we had a normal opening Band "Wargasm" that knew that they were only the Opener. And most kids only got inside when Babymetal started.
No circle pit for RoR? Denver crowd sounds horrible.
vocals not as good as music
