Their Dome DVD just came out yesterday, for their first Dome concert ever in April. I'm sure someone will rip it really soon. I'll let you know if I see it, though I'll probably just end up buying the real thing myself.
Dude, those videos are like nothing. Here, I found Jun doing "Yabai-Yabai-Yabai." Though the coolness of how FUCKING HIGH UP he is really doesn't come through in the fancam, and this isn't from the Dome, where he changed most of it around to adjust for the high ceiling factor. I liked it better at my concert, the way he started on actual steps and just kept going up in the air was so freaking COOL-LOOKING.
And no, that isn't big enough for a moving stage. You can sooooort of see the moving stages here; they're actually fully stage-sized and detach from the main stage center platform. All five of the boys fit onto one of them quite easily with room to dance, and they can raise the height for the stage to be like twenty feet in the air near the stands, or right over the heads of the floor audience (you can see the audience right underneath Ohno and MatsuJun in that video). At my concert there were two, and they would sometimes overlap at different heights to make a double-tier, or join together like they did here. But I don't think it really comes through in fancams just because you can't really get a sense of how big it is; probably downloading the Dome concert video would be best. (There are the moving stages, smaller platforms like the ones in that video, mini-carts for each individual member to ride around, and the hanamichi, which are really super-tall carts on platforms that lift them up to face-level with the fans in the stands. Plus whatever other weird shit MatsuJun chooses to cook up, like those hot-air balloons or whatever...though obviously my concert experience was a little different due to it being in the Dome, it may not be as totally extreme when they don't need to cover as much ground?) Oh, or doing THIS. I was so sad because since the Dome ceiling is so high, they could only do one member instead of all five. Sob.
Also, whatever you're worried about becoming, I promise you that I'm already there and worse. I'M A MONSTERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!1!1!1 [/Buster]
Seriously. Today I was showing my vice principal something on my keitai, and she pointed to my strap, "What's that?" I showed her and she said, "I thought you said you just had FRIENDS who were Arashi fans."
I said sadly, "No. I've caught it, too."
"The Arashi sickness?"
"The Arashi sickness."
"That's terrible."
"It really, REALLY is."
"...was the concert fun?"
"OMGZZZZZZ YESSSSSSSSSSSSS I'M GOING AGAIIIIIIIIN TO WHENEVER AND WHEREVER THE NEXT ONE IS!!!!"

Oh wait wait! I just found the commercial they played like forty times for the Dome DVD while we waited for the concert to start! This gives you a MUCH better idea of what's going on, even if it's short.
And here's a much better video of Jun's solo. He didn't do the swinging wire in the middle of the song at the one I went to, though. Woeeeee.
...that was way too many videos.
