Red Velvet's "Russian Roulette" to be a 'red' and 'velvet' concept album, but I think there is only one title song? :huh:

Yesterday I went to the gallery and the concert. I'm still sort of 'unpacking' it but wanted to share my thoughts:

So in the afternoon I went to the gallery. It was pretty small but had a LOT of stuff. Costumes from five or six different videos (Spending All My Time, Magic of Love, Flash, Spring of Life, and a few others I'm forgetting). I was so happy the SAMT outfits were there:

It also had a lot of posters, cds, magazines, and photos. We were allowed to take pictures so I took a bunch. Definitely worth the $10.

I got to the Hammerstein Ballroom right when the doors were opening at 7pm. The line was like eight blocks long haha, but moved pretty quickly. I was inside, ticket scanned, and at my seat by like 7:40. I was in the first balcony, front row just left-of-center. I was basically sitting next to the cameraman. Couldn't have asked for a better seat.

The show itself was quite phenomenal. I don't always love going to concerts cuz they're so loud and crowded (hence not doing GA), but I was extremely glad I went to this. They did almost all of my very favorite songs, and some songs I don't love sounded really good live. They did almost all of the "Cosmic Explorer" album, as well as generally one song from each previous era. There was plenty of audience interaction, and the girls' fun and excitable personalities really came through. And the show had just enough cutesy weirdness to be a genuinely Japanese show.

Some random notes from the show:

-I was SO happy that they did almost all of Spending All My Time. I was worried they'd only do like thirty seconds of it because it was in a medley, but they did most of the song. It was so cool to see the choreography live.

-Cling Cling, a song I don't really love, was surprisingly good live. The concert instrumentation made it a bigger and better song, with a heavier and more danceable beat and that kind of thing.

-Dream Fighter was definitely the crowd favorite! I'm not so familiar with Perfume's older work, but the crowd went insane for this song.

-Miracle Worker also really got people going. I swear that dance break gives me my life. I was happy to see so many other people loving it given that it wasn't a single.

-Next Stage With YOU sort of bombed. Like, you could kind of tell the crowd wasn't as into it as with all the other songs. Even the girls seemed to have less fun with that song, especially since the choreo is mostly just steering wheel motions. Maybe I'm just projecting though haha.

-Some people wore really good costumes! There was a trio wearing the Magic of Love costumes, a trio wearing Spring of Life light-up costumes, and some people wearing Spending All My Time costumes. There was also a trio up in the balcony wearing what looked like Cling Cling costumes (but maybe wasn't), and I felt bad they didn't get the girls' attention.

-There was some funny audience interaction, including a call-and-answer "Steak House" thing, and a weird song about brushing your  teeth. We also had to do some weird "apple, apple, banana, banana, CHEESEBURGER" chant thing haha. It was so weird. The funniest part was when they made the giant screen on stage look like we were playing Pokemon Go, and we caught Perfume in a pokeball :lmao:

-They kept saying not to take pictures, but there was no security around me so I was able to take a lot of pictures (all of which came out terrible because my phone takes bad pictures haha), as well as some video clips.

 

Yas glad you enjoyed! That's good you had good seats too. I had some crappy seats at the artRave. 

Yeah like I'm pretty sure all the concerts I've went to they don't want you take pics but like almost everybody has their phones out takin pics anyway.:emma:

They didn't release a teaser for Automatic either so maybe they're just going to drop another one without hyping

At least I hope :emma:

When you look at RR's tracklist it gets even more obvious how dirty they did The Velvet tbh

The teaser sounds really good tho :giveup:

RV track descriptions :laughga:

Russian Roulette (A song with impactful lyrics that compares the procedure of winning over someone's heart to a game of Russian Roulette)
Lucky Girl (Retro-style Pop Dance depicting honest confession and the precarious feelings between a man and a woman just starting to love each other.)
Bad Dracula (Power Dance song that wittily describes a silly yet cute story of Dracula who wants to win over the human lover's heart.)
Sunny Afternoon (A New Jill Swing containing the mood of a warm afternoon.)
Fool (country style acoustic song)
Some Love (tropical house)
My Dear (medium tempo)

I love how they get shorter and shorter :toofunny:

I think it's midnight KST, so a little over 5 hours :)

Oh, good! For some reason I thought it was going to have like a 10 a.m. release :flop:

I was not a big fan of Gain's comeback teaser pictures but she's flawless in the preview video. jawdrop.gif
