| | So I found out this week that HYDE is having a US tour starting in July! I'm super hyped about this event since GLAY is probably not going to come to US this year and it's been 3 years since HYDE last came.. I am so happy that I can barely sleep. I still remember 3 years ago in 2006, Hyde held an american tour as well but at that time I was a fresh grad from college, don't know what to do about life, trying to find a job but not really trying hard enough and basically didn't know what the hell I was doing at that time and just totally missed out on the concert. This time I promised myself I will not miss out on this event at all. Again, most Jap artist don't hold concert outside of Japan coz #1. Language Barrier #2. Might not be profitable - cost in shipping equipment, hiring crew to fly across the continent to perform, etc #3. Schedule conflict, difficulty in arranging and planning for places to host venue... etc.. Here's the reason why I MUST GO: #1.It's rare #2. My fave J-rockers are growing old.. all in their late 30's early 40's, if i don't see it now, I might not have a chance to see them later since anything can happen to anybody. #3. The venue they have in US is much smaller. They usually travel to multiple destinations to perform instead of hosting a giant concert at a stadium. In this sense, it's a really great thing since smaller concert means better view to see them up close and they would usually do something a little different/out of the ordinary since they are on a foreign land. #4. The cost is lower since you don't have to fly to japan and wait in freaking line to purchase the tix. The tix that you buy in US worths much more than in Japan since you can see them up close instead of seeing them from a long range. So after going to New York , I realized that I need to live my life at the fullest and never let anything get in the way of how I live. Honestly, I used to feel that I'm obligated to live my life certain way because my parents told me so. But after thinking about it deeply, I feel like yes, buying a house, earning a lot of money can set a great foundation for my future but it's not something that I must be concern about. I'm still going to buy a house, earn more money, and that's at the least of my concern right now because I know later after 30+, i'll still be able to deliver. Why should I worry about it now when i should live my life at the fullest and enjoy what I do? I'm not saying that after getting marry, your life will go downhill from there. But marriage does prevent you from doing a lot of things, having kids sets you up to switch out your priorities, any problem that goes wrong in the family must require special attention. So why not postpone those things and worry about it later and enjoy yourself at the moment? |
