Miku Expo Europe 2018 - My Experience (Cologne / Köln)

[@Kevelinu]

I am back from seeing Miku live again... this time I didn't need to travel to Japan but just to a different part of Germany! Being so spoiled with the Magical Mirai experiences, how did this fare? Well, find out in my event report, as always and stay tuned for more videos in the future! :-)

[@keekydeeks3993]

Thanks for the review I'm going to the one in London tommorow and I'm so excited I have one question though How hard is it to get right to the front?? Because I would really like to get to the front to see my favourite rin and I want to see bring it on and roki If you do reply thanks

[@keekydeeks3993]

Also do rin and len have any solos as o checked a page with the track list on it and it says they don't?

[@Kevelinu]

The tickets for Cologne had assigned seating (which is so much better), maybe London isn't doing that?

[@keekydeeks3993]

@@Kevelinu there is vip seating in London but that sold fast and there's only standing and I've been a vocaloid fan for nearly 4 and a half years and it has been my dream to see it live and I've heard about an exibition being there I'm not sure if that's just London or if it's been to Germany as well Sorry if my questions are bothering you I just really would like to make the most out of this experience

Dürfte nicht hin war so traurig😢😭

[@amybradshaw6693]

Hey, nice video report. I was in block 102 and we were actually lucky to have two veteran japanese fans right behind us. Maybe they were hired by crypton but they really helped a lot to teach us newbees how to cheer and or move the glowsticks. And they were really loud. As far as loving the other vocoloids is concerned I'd have to say that especially Kaito's and Meiko's songs might not have been the luckiest choices for a live concert. I've heard them once or twice before, but I wasn't anywhere near as enthusiastic as with Miku, Rin&Len, or Luka. "Luka Luka Night Fever" and "Remote Control" are like ultimate crowd pleasers and will always be a safe bet when played.

[@keekydeeks3993]

At miku expo London everyone knew what to do and how to cheer and we were all very loud. Everyone there were hardcore fans who about 99% of the people there were their first concerts and I've seen tons of concerts and I knew the colours and patterns inside out

[@keekydeeks3993]

Talking about meiko and kaitos songs everyone was screaming and going wild and there was so much energy it was insane

Unfassbares Erlebnis! War den ganzen Tohubawbohu mit Flug aus MUC und sonstigem Durcheinander 100% wert! Würde selbst sofort wieder hin und hoffe schwer das Miku auch nächstes Jahr wieder da ist! Immer noch unglaublich das Miku mal bei uns war! Kommt immer noch gleich das Lächeln wenn ich an den Abend zurückdenke. ´ u ´

[@TyLee96]

So sorry if I bothered you, but I didn‘t expect to find you under thousands of people, it made me really happy. Should have been more confident and ask for a photo. Had to think about you when they played Hajimete no Oto.

[@keekydeeks3993]

I love your channel so much and it was so nice to see how different the concert itself was compared to seeing the one in London

[@keekydeeks3993]

I also completely lost my voice as well by screaming all the songs at the top of my voice so I can barley speak now

[@nemmeton]

So exciting! Was happy to see you could go see Miku in your home country :) headed up to London myself for the Expo tomorrow, so hyped! A four year long dream finally coming true :,)

[@keekydeeks3993]

London was amazing wasn't it I was in the middle at the barrier for those who bought standard tickets and the view was great I've waited nearly 4 years to

[@carlosa8060]

OMG FINALLY , IVE BEEN WAITING FOREVER FOR U TO UPLOAD, yay more miku stuff :3

[@AJKam1kaz3]

Hello from Los Angeles! Glad that you had fun at Miku's European Tour. I do hope they bring back Miku to Europe again much like how I like to bring back the expo to LA as always. Who knows, maybe they'll convince the higher ups to add more European locations in the future. Perhaps it'll be like us in the US where there's a Miku Expo every 2 years (a pattern we noticed so far)! I'm actually happy that you actually recorded the experiences before the show. I get tired or even irritated that people just post recordings of the show itself (not to mention, not helping the company's dvd/Blu-ray sales) and not their experience before the show like workshops and cosplay gatherings. Those are the activities I rather record whenever there's a Miku Expo here in LA (which I have documented on my channel)! I know this is getting long, but happy you get to have Miku Expo in your home country. Who knows, maybe when they do come back, they'll also have guest DJ's or a Digital Stars after party! Take care!

[@sandramack5858]

[@LittleFoxGirl8]

I'm so happy for Europe for getting a Miku Expo. I have to say I am a little jealous at the small exhibition stuff that the US doesn't get anymore, but I know that's because they go to so many cities and it would be so hard to take it around I'm sure. Anyways, the expo looked like a load of fun and I'm glad Miku could spread her happiness to people who may not have experienced it before ^_^

[@keekydeeks3993]

I tell you the "exibition" in London was complete rubbish and there was practically nothing

[@geniegerny]

Nice video I like the review. I myself have been been there to experience miku live for the first time and I absolutely loved it. It might not be compareable to concerts in japan especially not from the fan side of things. (hell I had no idea what I was doing myself was just dancing around the whole time) But I enjoyed it very much. It was a great light show and the acoustic was quite good. Sadly sometimes you couldnt understand a word of the song. I'm not sure why but whatever. The song choices were fine aswell I guess. I'm not considering myself a hardcore fan so I dont really know all the songs, especially not all the new ones because I'm not keeping up to date that much. That said listening to vocaloid songs pretty much all day I knew some of them. But regardless of knowing or not knowing I liked every song they played. They played calming songs after a very fast one to build tension up again. Overall I think you hit it with your review and I am very glad I wasn't the only one feeling that way. BTW: What song played before the actual event like at 7:42. Its stuck in my head now after hearing it again. :D

[@Mary-ts8wj]

Hi! I´m so glad that you enjoyed the concert! The name of th song is "Miku" by anamanaguchi, you can find it in Miku´s official channel :)

[@lunithymunithy4160]

I went to Cologne too, coming all the way from the top of North Holland! it was so comforting to see all those people cheering for Miku, since I often get laughed at for listening to vocaloid music here in The Netherlands...

[@youtubeaccount1226]

I love your channel! I can't wait for your next video! I also went to Miku Expo 2018, in London. Amazing! (◕‿◕✿) I love all your videos, because your not afraid to show your passion for the things you love! Your inspiring!

[@bellebunart6539]

I totally agree with your statement about the audience... I had my seat at the very middle of the front vip area and Even thought I was cheering a lot and singing, I couldn't manage to motivate my seat neighbours to sing along or at least scream "hey". I don't know if you've seen me but I was there in cosplay of Rin Kagamine, the Bring it On version. To be honest, I was sad not having anyone next to me who would sing and scream along, I absolutely love Vocaloid but I had the feeling some people weren't even fans. Something that catched my eye was that many people just sat down when other vocaloids than miku had their performance, especially when meiko performed. I thought it was so rude, both of my seat neighbours just sat down.. It also was my very first concert, but I knew how to handle the glowsticks and sang along. Personally, I think the most important part of the concert is to be together with other Vocaloid fans and have fun. I kind of missed it and had a better imagination in my head. I just hope that next time miku comes back the audience will be more active! OH, also: You showed a Newsletter article about Miku, but i just want to inform you that this newsletter wasn't that nice about Miku. It was the BILD newsletter, they are not serious and usually make lots of fun about things. We germans dislike this newsletter a lot D: But that aside, I like your review and hope you had fun nevertheless!

[@Kevelinu]

I understand and totally agree. I advise you to visit Japan and attend Magical Mirai for an authentic experience next year!^^ Also I know about Bild of course. I still thought including it was appropriate. Ich bin auch Deutscher lol

[@niino4329]

Für meinen Kumpel und mich war es nicht nur das erste Mal auf einem Miku-Konzert, sondern das erste Mal auf einem derartigen Konzert überhaupt. Und wir beiden haben ordentlich geschrien! ...auch wenn wir in unserem Block (101, dort wiederrum in der zweitvordersten Reihe) gefühlt ebenfalls die einzigen waren. In jedem Fall möchte ich wieder auf ein Vocaloid-Konzert und irgendwann auch mal auf die Magical Mirai.

[@HyperGamer14]

Same! Es war mein erstes Konzert überhaupt und auch wenn ich ganz hinten auf den den Rängen gesessen habe (Block 617 aber wenigstens in der zweiten Reihe) war die Stimmung mMn echt angenehm, es wurde Zugabe gerufen, geschrien (und vielleicht merkt man das unten nicht so aber oben war das Geschreie doch schon nicht gerade wenig mMn) und es ist zwar niemand aufgesprungen oder ähnliches (verständlich, man will ja niemandem die Sicht auf den Rängen kaputt machen oder so) aber sonst war es echt toll :D Der Sound war nicht 100% perfekt, ich fand auch dass die Band ein bisschen zu laut war im Vergleich zu Miku, Caito usw aber es hat sich echt gelohnt für mich :D Hatte die ganze Zeit ein Lächeln im Gesicht und bin auch sehr geflashed wieder nach Hause gegangen^^ (auch als nicht der größte Vocaloid-Fan aller Zeiten, obwohl ich durch Project Diva usw fast alle Songs kannte :3)

[@keekydeeks3993]

In London it was insane Everyone was singing screaming jumping and we were all waving our light sticks in time everyone knew what they were doing and the energy level was very high

[@keekydeeks3993]

I am not trying to be mean or rude at all but I would like to raise some points about things you mentioned in your videos. If some of this sounds quite rude to you I'm sorry but I have say something about it (but this from my experience of the concert in London) 1) the atmosphere The reason it probably wasn't as high was because everyone was seated. In London most people there had been waiting for an hour and a half just to be at the front (or close to it) and during that time we had what I call light stick waves where everyone turned their batons a certain colour and waved it around randomly for a few minutes while we were waiting. When the actual concert started everyone was screaming, jumping around and waving the light sticks in time. When the chorus hit each song can you see an intire audience of about 5,000 people just about everyone wasn't Japanese yet we all sang the choruses at the top of our voices. There was high energy through out the who concert especially world is mine and tell your world World is mine: the intire Chorus was sang loudly and in unison was lots of cheering this had some of the most energy Tell your world: this in my opinion had the most energy because as soon as the beat dropped everyone was jumping screaming singing and trying to grab the streamers in the last Chorus 2) it's not Japan The reason in your opinion it wasn't right was because it's not Japan this is a tour it can't be 100% perfect especially as it has to cope with the noise of the crowd and band and vocaloids in a new venue that they've never been to before. The screen can't be as big as magical mirai because it has to tour and I noticed the screens at magical mirai are about 2 or 3 screens joined together so they won't be able to take it on tour. Also just be greatful that it actually came close to you there are alot of countries in Europe and it only went to 3, many people missed out on the chance to see it. 3) the set list Almost everyone in the crowd would've never seen a vocaloid concert live so it seems obvious they'd bring back the popular songs from the tours and reuse them

[@christybee13]

Yeah I agree 100% I was at the London concert too and I travelled from Scotland just to be there and it was totally worth it, I'd go again in a heart beat, and yeah the light stick waves definitely were great during the hour and a half wait before it 😂😊

So boring to have seats in the middle area. Paris had no seats and it was great. Jump people jump! Have some energy!

[@Kevelinu]

The point of the seats is not to sit down (yeah I saw some people sat down and I hated that, at least for the VIP section that's a no-go!), but to have an assigned seat to be at! Is so much more relaxing than having to rush to get in and defending a spot.

[@Obbliteration]

So people stood by the seats? I would be super concious of bothering other people that wanted and expected to seat trough thw whole thing.
