Radiohead in Saitama Super Arena

I've never been to a concert quite like Radiohead before. They played for over 2.5 hours, came out for double encore, and barely even wasted time talking to the audience. This was a huge difference from the mini concert I saw from J-Pop group Perfume during Summer Sonic music festival. *Flashback to Summer Sonic* We waited for an hour before showtime in a small indoor auditorium that was way overcrowded with drunks, otaku's and innocent girls that did not know the fury of hell they would soon experience. Anyways, when Perfume came out, the crowd went crazy. When I say crazy.. it was like the entire floor became a huge mosh pit. Its fine if everyone was expecting to see Iron Maiden or something and there was an implied discretion that the pit of hell was going to start, but this was Perfume, the 3 girl techno-jpopish group that does a cute introduction of their members that resembles something that Morning Musume would do. Anyways, everyone was pushing, girls were crying, people were falling and calling for Staff assistance. Since my little brother was there, I had to protect him from being trampled in addition to protecting myself. Perfume only ended up "singing" 3 songs and talked the rest of the time before saying good bye. What a huge rip off that was. *Fast forward to the present* My friend managed to get standing tickets closest to the stage. Besides my lower back hurting from the 4 + hours of standing, the concert was worth it. Here are some visuals from the concert (again sorry for the low quality as they were all taken from my mobile phone:








I messed up when I took this video clip, but the LCD screens are supposed to go horizontally not vertically. Oh well, everything looks blurry anyways LOL.



Funny clip of a Japanese chorus group singing Neyo's "Because of you" right outside the arena:
