The Junction?

CD Japan shipped out my baby J this afternoon! *breathes deeply to remain calm* If I'm lucky, I'll meet up with Farah tomorrow... oops, later tonight after work. I'm gonna need that few precious hours of serious discussion to vent and spazz about some random Jyaniz stuff. Lol.

Some KinKi fans are - for the lack of a better word - bitchy about the minimalist J Album promotion, concept and sub-par performance. I think they're still disgruntled over the Moody!KinKi appearance on FNS. But I'm so far unaffected by their spoilers and critic because I want to keep this magical feeling of purchasing my first KK 'new release'.

What's making my mood worse is the fact that SMAP is associating themselves more and more with Tohoshinki. I really don't get their marketing ploy here. What on earth can SM achieve by leeching from an almost down-and-out (no offence cos I do like SMAP) Johnny's idol group? What on Planet 51 is SMAP Manager-san (the one rumoured to be fighting over successor rights with Julie Kitagawa) trying to do?

Ohkaaay let's skiiiip to the Happy News for today:

KinKi held a secret live for 250 FC members at an underground tunnel in Shibuya. This secret event invited those exclusive few to a venue that was not informed beforehand, whereby the fans were 'smuggled' to this under construction J-shaped building for a short acoustic performance of their songs. I wonder whose pocket did all that money come from? [Read more here]



J = Junction? Junction in life? KinKi reaching a junction? What? *shrugs* We'll just have to wait and see, ne?

So there it was, a tiny bit of fodder for the nasty fans to chew on regarding the enigma of their currently tagline-less album. Personally, I think they're doing a great job so far. Reserving judgement til my package arrives.
