TIME: 9:40am, Sunday
WATCHING: "The Way I Are" - Timbaland
Oh my geezus...
So, I was watching Live Earth Friday night, in Tokyo because Linkin Park was performing there later.
Opening band, Rize.
I have never seen a better Japanese band then that. Blew my fucking mind! They are like, a punk/rap/rock band, much like LP. Jesse, the singer, speaks fluent English with no accent whatsoever, and they even sang some stuff in English, which I prefer.
So, I am in a little, Rize fanatic mode, because, honestly, that stole the show. So amazing, so energetic, one of the BEST live performances I have ever seen in my life. Its #3 on the list.

In general, the Tokyo show was amazing. It easily had the most people, maybe London, but it had the most amazing arena sound I have EVER heard, the whole thing was just so perfect. Wish I could have understood the speaking between things lol.
I watched a lot of bands perform live for the first time, like the Smashing Pumpkin, Metalica.... Spinal Tap (dear god), Taking Back Sunday was terrible. Anyone who has seen them live, is Adam always saying the same thing over and over during stage banter, and sounding shitty?
Anywho, I never actually did see LP. I knew people would rip it online, and it was on to early in the morning, so, I’ll watch it later tonight.
Peace
