Sounds like a great time. Personally I really don't care for most of these vocaloids. The only ones I really enjoy are Miku, IA, and Megpoid.
I have to nitpick here. Melt is over ten years old now. http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm1715919 You can see here, it was uploaded on December 7th, 2007. Closer to 11 years now. |

I attended this show and the (afternoon) NYC event in 2016. The visuals this year were certainly more sedate than those two years ago, but I have to say that I preferred this year's setlist. That said, they were both great shows, and I'd go again if Miku-chan and friends came back in 2020!

Miku's been in NYC in 2014, 2016, and 2018. The latter two appearances were part of a North American tour. A brief history of Miku Expo (a subset of all live performances): https://mikuexpo.com/history I'm happy to hear that Miku is headed for Europe for the first time this coming December: London, Paris, and Cologne. |

Every single concert, Len always steals the show.

Darn, does this mean they're not going to plug her tour on another NYC late-night network talk show, now that David Letterman isn't around to ruin it anymore? Was sort of hoping we could get a do-over. |

I must be old, because I've still not been able to grok the whole Miku thing.

Went to the 2016 one and this one. Prior to that I've seen a concert on video, but it's not the same as experiencing it in person. Best I can describe it, it's like being in the movie Who Framed Roger Rabbit. Very surreal and fun experience.
Enjoyed the set this year but I wish they would do more duets or some of the songs that feature 3 of the singers that I see on the Sega video games. I mean I know Miku is the star, but she's REALLY the star of the show. At least let the other singers take a bow at the end of the show or something. Still had a fun time and the beers were 10 bucks, which is a lot but at baseball stadiums in New York it's even worse than that. Oh and it's a lot more fun if you get drunk but what isn't lol! |

Even if some may disagree about the talents of computer voices vs. organic ones-- Cuteness is still the universal language : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IDsFMpfFW7k (Perhaps Rin Kagamine's appeal might be conventionally easier to understand for beginners: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qwv_WK1XaSM ) |
