#idol cover

[otakebi-cam-wao]

i didn't posted about my last event as idol cover but i will bout this one, cuz is my on stage solo debut

AND GOD I HAVE STUFF TO TALK BOUT

first of all, i'm sick, and i lied my family saying i would go to only buy my stuff (oh right, i made merch!)

and like... from my original 3 songs setlist i had to sing 2 (to not over do it, as i'm sick, bronchitis, have to take care of myself!)

It went, fine over all at least, i did mistakes, but i won't go hard on me this time cuz i'm sick, and technically i should have stepped down from this event

anyways, i was the event's Ikemen, as the rest were all girly, might upload a pic, might not, idk

that's all tho

i know i’m late but here’s some red and pink mostly 80s album covers for valentine’s day :)

everyone should go listen to Can We Kiss? by Calvin Johnson 🙏 i am his #1 fan and that song is so pretty and very fitting for the holiday! OOO also Bewitched by Beat Happening (calvin’s 80s band :) ) both lovely songs for the occasion and i think his vocals are so pretty. i included the beat happening album Bewitched is included on (top middle - Jamboree).

Sprunkigusare Idols. Sure. Whatever.

This is the most self-indulgent, niche artwork I have ever made. This appeals to no one except for myself and maybe 1 other person in this entire planet.

Okay Og!Cale enjoyers, I found a good idol novel for us!!

It's called 'The Malicious Member Is Back' and has a redhead MC who wants to save his family, has a lot of regrets, and used to be a drunkard.

He also "looks like a thug" but is actually a kind person.

I'm currently on chapter 95 and waiting for the translator to unblock chapter 96 (in two days!!) and the novel seems good so far.

My idol debut at Chile's Local Idol Fest [out of idol chara]

Setlist:

"Mikan" - Morning Musume

"Osu! Kobushi Tamashii" - Kobushi Factory

"Omatsuri Debut Da Ze!" - OCHA NORMA

First: I'm an idol?

Well, this Sunday 08.10.2023 I debuted with my bestie as idols, kaigai/overseas idols to be specific (think bout the japanese idols not korean please, all different), while we just sing covers at the moment I am actually learning composition and studying jpop as a whole to be able in a, hopefully, close future be able to release our own music.

Using this as a basis, we still can say i'm an idol for kaigai standards.

Second: Our group

Our group is called "Asa Star" (if you translate it it would be Morning Star) i came out with the name as a agnostic who loves stuff about angels and devils/demons, and well, "Lucifer Morning Star" was the most beautiful angel and God's right hand until he was banned from heaven and became the devil, the fallen angel. And we do relate a bit to an angel and devil (me devil) and can fit a thematic with it. (This group has a lot of lore and it will be develouped as well)

Our stage names follow the theme with a mix of our own names' meanings.

Me being: Giseishan (as using a lot of translators Gisei means sacrifice, and Giseisha means sacrificer, the n at the end it's for cutesy; and my name's meaning is "the one who makes sacrifices")

My bestie being: Jun-chan (one of the many kanjis that you can read as Jun means purity, and my friend's names means "the pure and beautiful one")

It's totally fiting to the theme right?

Originally tho, we formed in september 2019, and debuted at an online event in december 2021.

Third: The effort

You can guess it wasn't easy at all, we had a bad luck strike for a while, which i won't really talk bout.

But the moment we saw this oportunity, I, as the one who actually works editing anything sound related, started to create setlist options, i'd lie if i say we didn't have close friends' help tho.

I also recorded harmonies and background vocals for this instrumental and it wouldn't be so flat, and also have some guides to follow.

Besides that we actually rehearsaled twice together, mostly because we don't dance, friend has a bit of disability that doesn't let her. (yes, you can be an idol even if you have any kind of disabilities, you can look at Kamen Joshi's Igari Tomoka) but mostly to check up our harmonies and we some key movements on stage between our whole improvisation)

Must say as well, that while my bestie did the "manager" stuff of applying to the event, asking a lot of stuff... While i made technical stuff, and i also dessigned our outfits (made by a neighbour tho)

Four: The Debut!

So the big day arrived, the costumes done just the night before but fitting and all. Nervousness and excitement. We went to the event, met friends, did the soundcheck, fixing make up and hair at the dressing rooms. All ready, and we went on stage after the respective groups before us, we had the crowd cheering us, tbh they waited for us for a couple of years, but they were excited, sadly, at the first chorus in our last song the audio was cut, i tried to keep going acapella, till i heard the next group's track... i couldn't, they played it again, it failed... We got on stand by in case we were able to fix it, we were, so like an hour later we were able to finish the performance. And every one cheered us A LOT, i like to think we went back even stronger.

That in a way tho, i'm happy about this, tho i'm very self critical, i got ahead of my lines in the first song twice, i forgot some lines tho i grasped them midway, i bumped on my friend once... We also lacked of a eyecatching performance.

My friend is more self critical (she really didn't like the performance on her side) because her mic got too low (they changed her mic), she sang some parts out of tune (not badly tho, and also not weird with the same japanese idols, we love some that are even tone deaf)...

She got to cry on stage when our last song got cut by technical problems... And got extremely frustrated between and after our performances (still tbh, she went on an undefined hiatus cuz she doesn't want to come back unless she can deliver a better performance)... I still think it was nice as it was basically her first time performing, i did some stuff years ago at school on the other hand.

Anyways it will get better, that's what i think the next time it will be better, we just need to practice more, be critical and try not to be self destructive!

That's all. Those are my thoughts i think

Now some pics tho i feel a bit weird bout sharing them here

RECENTLY IVE BEEN really into the idea of making up "fanunits" for vocal synths akin to what we do with love live characters, like fanmade duos, trios, other unofficial groups and like playing with what kind of names and outfits they could have and what kinds of songs would fit their vibes..... ive got a bunch of sticky notes all over the place full of little unofficial groups like this now.... holds out my hand. play toys with me.

i think you can be as critical about the venezuelan opposition and maría corina and edmundo as you want but arent venezuelans allowed to choose for themselves even if the options arent perfect? are you willing to justify electoral fraud and police brutality, class inequality, bad management of resources, lack of maintenance of the country, breach of the law, lack of investment in health services and education etc etc just because the person doing it is someone you like or because you don't like the other option? are people at fault for wanting something different?
