420W Journal4 ( I went to a concert! )


The group has four menbers. Two are Japanese, and two are Canadian who are brothers. I'm not interested in them before going to their concert. When I walked to my house, I got phone from host mother. She said if you wanted to go Monkey Majik's concert, she had one extra ticket, so you could go. Although I knew the group's name, I didn't know much about them. I was thinking for a while, and said "Yes". That was because I didn't want to waste the ticket. I went to the bar in which Monkey Majik had a concert with my hostfather's friend who is Canadian. There were lots of Japanese who were lining up for entering the bar and they looked so excited. I got into the bar which was not so big but cozy, and blown is the prevailing color in the bar. People came into the bar and the bar became crowded. The time passed, and people was getting fridget, and me too. Then some people in front of the bar shouted crazily, and everyone looked at the stage. Monkey majik was coming! Some shouted, and some jumped and shaked their hands, and some put bunny cap and appeal they were here. The Canadian guy who are old brother wore a snug T shirt and block flat cap, and the other guy wore a goggle on the gray knit cap and casual block T shirt with silver neckless. They were on the stage which was very near from the place I stood. I didn't try, but I think I could touch them if I tried. Their voice was so clear and strong, and even if they were Canadian, they sang in Japanese and they had no accent. The fans including me moved their hands like a wave. I felt we were like run of fish because we unified and moved for same purpose. I never felt such a identification. It was so amazing and was difficult to explain in words, but I really enjoyed it. Before that day, Monkey Mojik was just one of the group in thousands groups all over the world, and now, but now, they makes part of my life!

HiYukino,

Firstly, I am very enjoying reading your journal about a Janpanses night. From your descriptions, I know you had awesome night with warming fans.
If you can use some words to join some sentences , you must have written a amazing journal.

This is a very good description of your great night out. I think you have managed to capture the atmosphere very well, and you have also described very well how the concert made you feel. I love going to live music shows; in fact, I am spending New year's Eve at a concert and the night before New Year's Eve, I am going to the same band's concert too! I hope that I manage to get the same excited feeling that you did with Monkey Magic! (They have some clips on YouTube - you probably knew that already!)
