Here's one someone linked last thread: https://www.eparisextra.com/columns/108584/miku-expo-dallas-2016-i-paid-to-see-a-hologram-sing-and-dance-and-it-was-phenomenal

In a lot of these recent articles you see the author is intrigued by the fact that there's a concert featuring an anime hologram, and they end up having a ton of fun. I think it says something about these concerts that some of the people going have absolutely no idea what the hell brought them there in the first place, and then when it ends they just have a huge grin.
It's interesting to read about these people who are "converted" so to speak.

Watching some of the video clips of the concert again simultaneously gets my hyped and teary-eyed at the same time.

This was my first Miku concert to attend and I can just really feel the magic. It's hard for me to explain. I can not wait to go again.

I actually almost didn't go. It was the middle of the week and I was really not sure what to expect.

I mean, I have lots of Miku merchandise and a game, but I had never really listened to much of her music. I just thought she was super cute and interesting in a technology way (I'm really big into IT).
I guess you can say that I was very intimidated or scared of the thought of going to such a silly sounding concert. I am so glad that I went, even if I missed the opening act and didn't get the chance to do the drawing event or get any merch.

Sorry for gushing so much, this just ended up blowing me away. Thanks for reading my blog.

I certainly don't speak for everyone, but for me, seeing her for the first time was nothing short of magical. It was such a powerful experience and I'm not proud to admit it but I actually cried. Seeing her for the second time was still amazing but it wasn't the same. If I could go a third time, I absolutely would, but I don't think anything can match that "first time" feeling, so I don't think you're missing out on as much as you think you are.

I went to NY in 2014, Toronto in 2016, and what I've learned is that getting centred seats is the most important aspect of enjoying these concerts. I bought my ticket the minute general sales went online and still wound up getting sidelined because I wanted to be closer. Lesson learned.

Literally no one. The people who got there before me had formed a little circle and were playing Project Diva and stuff, and then after me arrived two dads bringing their daughters.

Well I forgot the list for this year's shoe but in 2014 Miku of course had several songs, Rin and Len had a couple, one duet with Rin and Miku, only one for Meiko (Boo, she needs more), one for Kaito and two for Luka.

Also it's not a yearly thing unless you're in Japan, so far NYC and LA's shows have been two years apart but if this year does well hopefully it'll be a little more frequent.

This year's setlist had 27 songs; 1 Kaito, 1 Meiko, 1 Len, 1 Rin, 1 Rin/Len duet, 1 Luka. And 2 Miku/Luka duets if that counts. Basically, there's a really good reason it's "Miku Expo" and not "Vocaloid Expo".
Miku Expo by itself is so far a yearly thing with NA shows in 2014 and 2016, but there have been numerous other live performances for her dating all the way back to 2009, usually exclusive to Japan/SEA. "Miku Expo" is, and someone correct me if I'm wrong, the name of her touring shows, instead of single-location performances like Magical Mirai and anime cons.

Weebs generally don't congregate, therefore no one tells them they smell, therefore they don't shower as often.

The problem compounds itself with standing in line in the heat for six hours, then getting nervous and crammed into a venue along a large number of other people.

Honestly I was a little relieved when the concert was over, because it meant I wouldn't have to hang around smelly transvestites anymore.

I was there in Dallas, and there was no up-welling stench from "thousands of basement-dwellers". There was like one guy in my vicinity who smelled, and he was visibly sweaty.

>you have to show your support even if you didn't like it.
It's not that I'm trying to change the subject, because I like shitting on Europe as much Merkel does, but I've been wondering recently what is the most efficient way to support Miku?
I feel like the initial answer most people would have is "buy the merch" but I still wonder what to buy to get the most part of my dollar to her. I used to be really big in the figure scene, but I felt like most of my money would be going to the distributor, the manufacturer, the artist, the sculptor, etc with very little, if any, making its way back to Crypton.
So for the past 3 years, I've been stuck with the Project Diva games (even though I don't have a Vita or PS3 to play the f series) and live event DVDs, and of course now the concert and official merch from the show.
Is there something else I should be buying to line Miku's pockets and help keep her around for longer?

That's cruel. Imagine if Itoh or anyone from CFM went to one of the showings only to see people walk out. That would be depressing to see. Probably wouldn't want to come back if there was poor ticket sales as well.

>>15282087
The best way to show support is to actually buy the music. In terms of importance, digital downloads on the Karen-T label > CD's by a company [Exit tunes, etc], > Doujin CD's

The reason I say that is because a long time ago when Mikubook was a thing, I remember there was an official announcement claiming that they tracked the sales of overseas digital downloads and they found that over 50% came from out of Japan. If you really want to convince CFM, buy some music. (Most importantly music from the CFM label, Karen-T)

I know the majority of Vocaloid fans have only listened to those mentioned above, but if you look at some of those fans, their ignorance truly shows when they haven't even tried to listen to other Vocaloids (without being spoonfed of course) and then have the indecency to make silly assumptions and edgy commentary in spite of all of this.

It's the same thing with producers. Because so many "top hits" producers are retiring, debuting professionally, or even worse, make music exclusively with utaites, people think "Vocaloid is dying" and "the sky is falling" because they don't even bother supporting underrated, lesser known, local or newer talent out there.

This kind of mentality has been around everywhere btw, not just here. It's highly contagious.

Seriously, we need to have a pitchfork for Vocaloid so all the hipsters can go such each others dicks somewhere else.

It's perfectly fine not to like or even care about lesser known Vocaloid, and on the flip side, you aren't a better fan because you know a producer that only two other people have ever heard of because he only works with Latin gumi or some shit.

But other vocaloids you're ignoring like Luka, Kagamines, Gumi and Yukari are also consistently good, have lots of good producers and very popular songs. It's *okay* to like a few vocaloids more than others, I'd say it's to be expected really. It's just annoying when everyone has to think their favorite vocaloids are "better" just because they like them more.

Man piss off, I don't like KAITO cause his voice annoys me then I don't like KAITO period. Everyone has a right to an opinion so deal with it.

Honestly I wish there were more famous tunes for Luka and Meiko as they're horribly overshadowed by Miku but Miku is the flagship voicebank of Crypton and both Luka and Meiko's voices can really be only used for very specific types of music.

Miku, Luka, Rin, Len, miki, Lily, GUMI, Yukari, IA, Mayu, Lapis, Iroha. Those are the vocaloid I all love and listen to regularly (some more so than others). I'm not exactly a fan of other male Vocaloids but I still end up listening to Kaito and Gakupo at times if artists I like have made songs with them that aren't half bad (otetsu comes to mind as an example). SeeU sounds good but I'm not really into Korean; Chinese-wise I've yet to listen to that Yukari clone.

UTAU-wise, Yufu, Tei, Arisu and Momo are my favorite. Teito and Ritsu can sound pretty good depending on who uses them. When it comes to UTAU I usually go with artists rather than random songs, the UTAU fandom is a bit cancerous for lack of better words but there are some really talented artists out there. My favorite being きの (嘆きのP) (who's also a Yukari user).

I've seen the word "hipster" dropped around here and I don't even know how to begin explaining how retarded it is. Because some of us aren't constantly talking about concerts (who are 99% Miku and 99% Youtube popular-tier songs) and playing the games over and over again we're hipsters? How incredibly short-minded is this. I get it people don't like feeling unsecured or insulted about what they like but I swear this place is oddly closed-minded. I haven't visited in years and yet I've seen many folks over VO with a much more varied taste than the average /jp/ user. It's as if all you people cared about was to fap your Crypton dakimura all while listening to The World is Mine on repeat all day - in other words more attracted by Miku as an idol than the music itself; which wouldn't be surprising considering how autistic /jp/ is about those.

There are hundreds and hundreds of really interesting out there, for your own sake burst your bubble and seek them.

Iroha, Lily, Yufu and Momo are wonderful. And otetsu is great, whenever someone mentions vocarock or needs suggestion I point to him.

Yeah I also agree that the bar set for vocaloid hipsters is set really low when project Diva, miku expo and vocaloid weekly rankings are just the tip of the iceberg.

Well that's the thing with Vocaloid. Initially it was just marketing virtual idols when nowadays it is so much more than that. I usually try to talk about the music and producers with others mainly and the other aspects are less of a priority to me.

>>15289990
VOCAMERICA is going to be the first to introduce a modern Engloid projection concert. I would want to continue talking about this under spoilers as it can easily piss off other fans whether it be that they think dumb stuff such as all engloids being bad, or are irrelevant or have beef with Dex and Daina's voicers, seeing as Daina's voicer is the one organizing it. I have already seen the beef beforehand in public social media or forums js. So far, I find the mmd models being used great and the project being transparent, but I am still concerned if the money being crowdfunded and invested is going to be enough, seeing as the budget is more on the lower side. I am still iffy on why they are going to use UTAUs also seeing as it is blatant self promotion, but I guess it's expected. Hope we can also see other engloids being incorporated with the stretch goals. http://www.vocaloidnews.net/vocamerica-kickstarter-stretch-goals-announced1/

Valid point, well Randy seems like the kind of guy who doesn't want to ruffle Crypton's feathers so I'm sure he made note of it to them of his work, also the Miku Expo Twitter re tweeted his artwork so it all seems ok.

Well if Randy hasn't pull down his twitter post said stated that Crypton is frowning upon his action he should be cool since they would shut him down as hard and fast as the fist of an angry God if it was going against any of their policies. Again Randy seems like the kind of guy who would contact Crypton in some way and form to let them know what's up before making money off of them in some way shape and form.

Man assigned seating sounds like it would just kill the energy for a Miku show. Standing in line for line 8 hours so you get to be at the front of the pit is part of the experience. What about the line culture? And who wants to sit down? Can't dance sitting down.
