OH GOD. I forgot I drafted this blog AWHILE ago (aka put in all the pictures for me to re-arrange and write out thoughts).
This was back in September LOL! I went to Boston/Brookline to go see Cafuné in Boston awhile back! This is a band that I've really started liking since coming across Tek It in 2024. I also really vibed with Want Me Out, and I realized one day they were selling tickets for 34 dollars. ARE YOU KIDDING? I ran to buy them. I didn't even take a friend with me.
I ended up getting a last min hotel in Boston because it was on a Monday... and I was not driving back super late LOL. So I got to my hotel and then started putting on my makeup and ran into 2 fun issues.
1) so one of my loveil lenses got printed on backwards and it was SO weird. 2 of the lenses did, but with how I took the lenses out I had the issue with one a few weeks back and asked in a discord if anyone knew, and shout out to Miki who mentioned it might be inside out. So I looked like I had a lens in wrong... but it was fine
2) I forgot eyelash glue. This is the second time this year I've gone to an event and forgot it. Dashcon 2 I just went without bc... who gaf... but in a cute gal look i needed the lashes. But the look was cute! I was super lazy w hair and did a wild move of a delyle noir top with my tracksuit set. I also wore my platform boots as I wasn't familiar with the venue and I knew it was standing only, so I wanted to be able to see.
Started my walk and made it to Maruichi!!! That had eyelash glue!!! This Maruichi is bigger than the one in Providence, and they had much more of a selection. I picked up eyelash glue, a peach jelly, and eyelash glue. Lashes... now on.
I also got a skitty keychain at maruichi, and then went to a few stores on my walk to the center, and then OMG... A REIWATAKIYA... I know of the one on Newbury St, and they had chiikawa goods!!!!! The bad news is I didn't bring a back bc... music venue. I was shoving shit in my usagi purse and adding keychains LOL.
No pictures but I did get in lines for doors early, and ended up speaking to a wonderful diva whose name I forget... we didn't exchange contact information or anything. She was moving back to California in a few weeks and decided to go see a show at the music hall. Diva if you find this blog... please reach out on instagram you were SO NICE!!!!!
And thne we went in, got a drink, got a spot, and I got merch (and a tote to put everything in!) and AHHH... then show time. I didn't take a lot of pictures, only a few videos at the end of some songs I enjoyed. But first, lets talk the opener.
Crushed. AMAZING. Such a vibe. I actually ended up buying the digital album on release (called no scope !!!) and its SO good. I listen to almost anything, it was so fun. After listening to the album, my top songs are exo, cwtch, and oneshot.
AND AHHH CAFUNE CAME ON.... there was a girl who moved up between sets (I had noticed as I was saving the spot for a diva who... never came back). And I was like hella chill w her bc she was IN IT. She loves Cafune and was so into it, I told her I loved her energy and she was so sweet. She also had that one guy from yuyu hakusho on her phone (I think? black hair green top?) diva if ur reading this... hope u get everything u want.
ALSO THE DIVAS WHO JOINED IN ON THE SPACE HOLDING... AND THE DIVA WHO WE SPOKE TO ABOUT FAVORITE SONGS....
The whole set was great (aside from a couple pushing up for a few songs and just talking to each other. jesus. but it was only a few songs so)
AND THEY PLAYED TEK IT... AND THEY PLAYED WANT ME OUT!!!!!!!! I knew they'd play tek it, but I was so happy about want me out, I love want me out. i love it. so much.
I thought I'd cry more, I only cried during Soft Spot and at the end of Tek It, as hearing the lines that meant a lot to me in my personal line live meant to much. I filmed it. God. It was beautiful.
After the show, I went home. I couldn't stay longer as I had to get up at 6 am and go drive home as I scheduled an 8 am meeting on Tuesday and couldn't reschedule it that week (d'oh! but i love my clients so its ok) and yeah... good times for real. Overall, I felt like a chapter of my life truly closed. I cannot believe this was only 34 dollars (minus all of the other expenses of me buying stuff but that doesnt count LOL!)
Ok, I have another blog to go before I leave. Can I crank a blog out in 20 minutes. lets go see LOL
