As usually, the performance was flawless and even more amazing than World Tour 3rd. Daito-san brought all of the most anticipated tech from japan to deliver the amazing visual light shows that are usually reserved for the japan shows. HOWEVER, the Hammerstein had the over amp entirely too loud during the entire concert. I fear I may have hearing damage in my right ear and many of the people I talked to after the show agreed. It's been days since the concert and my hearing still isn't as clear as before. I would not have cared so much if it was only adults there, but Perfume shows are extremely family friendly and many people had children with them. There were parents and kids there and parents had to remove their kids because the amp was on overkill. I have experienced many Perfume concerts, so I can say I am confident in the sound level I was expecting. But I fear that this mishap may stop new fans/families from attending... :(

I can't stress enough just how awesome they are. I was in the first balcony for this concert and it great. I was 10ft from the front at the next concert the next night. Just love how they pick a fan who knows both Japanese and English to translate for them because they do not know a lot of English. It was the best weekend ever...

Was on the floor area with a friend and we enjoyed the hell out of it! This year was better than the one from 2014. To be able to see the performers live up and close is totally unforgettable. Will definitely go again!

Got turned on to this group while stationed in Japan. Wanted to see them in concert while at Misawa, unfortunately I got rotated back stateside and promised myself that if they ever did a show here I'd go. Luckily they added NYC to their Cosmic Explorer tour cause I live only 3 hours away. The show was simply amazing...definitely well worth it. Seeing them live is on a whole different level. The lights and choreography words cannot describe. I didn't expect such a large turn out but it was a full house. Can't wait to see them again.

I've been an avid fan, now 19, since about age 10, and coming all the way from Alabama to New York City. Purchasing tickets for both of the back to back shows was the right choice. The visuals put together for this tour were absolutely unreal - fans were so pleasant to be around and the energy in the crowd was crazy. If you're even KIND OF considering purchasing tickets to a Perfume show, just do it. Don't second guess yourself, because it's a chance you don't want to miss.

I felt so lucky for such a prefect timing to see perfume's concert because they came the same year I became a fan of them!! I brought several of my friends who did not know perfume but all of them still enjoyed the show as much as I did. We had a great view from the mezzanine and jumped like crazy. The lights/lasers/etc were all nice but it's enough to just see perfume's synchronized dance and their interaction with the crowd. The only downfall would be they randomly choose someone among the crowd to translate for them and sometimes it's not the best translation. But still you understand what they are saying by body language which is really cute to watch. Can't wait for another fun concert this year!!

Perfume were excellent!!! It was amazing seeing them in person. I loved the intro of the show leading into the first song! The technology was nothing that I have ever seen before!!! The lighting, the lasers, the graphics, as well as the girls synchronized dancing blew me away! I was dancing through out the night. I'm glad that Perfume's first time to the USA was a really good experience, not only for the fans, but for them as well. They really appreciated everyone coming to see them and I'm sure that at some point they will be back!

It was my first concert that I ever went to! I waited in line and saw the sun rise and set in the COLD New York weather. It was ALL worth it to finally see the girls who have inspired me for the last 8 years with their music. They literally glowed on stage. Their performances were so flawless and they made me so happy. I hope they come back to New York again! <3 Their smiles will always be in my heart and that night will always be in my memories!

This show, to quote a very kawaii Perfume member "AMAZING"! The show was phenomenal. The bass was pumping and the songs were free flowing. I loved the interaction with the crowd and the Frozen performance was so cute. This show will stay with me forever and I hope Perfume comes back to L.A. to do another performance. Maybe at a venue with seats. Standing room only is the pits! Especially after standing in the line outside for over 2 and 1/2 hours. But the venue is gorgeous just hard to stand for so long. And I wish they had let the souvenir stand stay opened during the show, I had to miss the encore because I didn't want to stand another 2 hours in line to get a t-shirt.

I kinda wish that they were a bit more live, and less prerecorded, but they still put on a good show. Show started a bit late, but it was great to see them for their first L.A. tour. Sadly, the solitary merch booth wasn't anywhere close to up to the task of serving all customers. Maybe next time I'll actually get a shirt.

If you're a North American fan of Perfume and you didn't get to see this show or the NYC show, you messed up. It was pretty much fantastic.

It's hard to explain how Perfume could be so intoxicating to a 37 year old American man. There are just so many things that come together to make something I'd never experienced before: the impeccably produced and continually evolving music; the amazing lighting and special effects; the creative and varied choreography along with enthusiastic execution by the ladies; the intriguing mix of kawaii with a more mature and subtle sex appeal; and lastly, the sincere love by the ladies of what they're doing. If, like me, you grew up with Japanese video games (and the music therein) and cartoons, I have a feeling you'll end up loving Perfume without even understanding why.

The music, choreography, visuals, lights, charisma, audience interaction... all of this together made another memorable Perfume concert. Their second year in NYC, their shows just keep getting better and better.

Maybe it was just that I had a much better seat this night than I did the previous night, or maybe it was that I knew what to expect and so was delightedly anticipating all my favorite parts, but the concert seemed even better than the previous night's. There was a special energy in the air, I thought. Kashiyuka said she was a little bit nervous, and she got tongue-tied in speaking her lines English in between songs--which was absolutely adorable and made me want to scream her name, as I did many times during applause. And even though my eyes are pretty much always fixed on Kashiyuka during performances, Nocchi was somehow especially radiant all evening, and there were moments when her dancing seemed magical. I wish the concert had never ended!

Perfume, known for their amazing live performances, definitely delivered a fantastic show to all of us in NYC. Perfume has so many facets: not only do they use hardcore EDM, holographic projections, lasers, and super futuristic concepts and themes in their production, but they showed us how cute they are by interacting with us between songs. Perfume is a group of badass, futuristic, robotic ladies, and at the same time, they are the cute idol girls from Japan who we all know and love. A nod to Nakata as well, he did awesome with the live mixes and medleys. I honestly would have preferred the song "Baby Face" to be sung in the original Jaanese, but I do appreciate the English translation in order to make Perfume more accessible to the international audience.

I love perfume for so many reasons and they deliver all those things I love in their show. The music, choreography, sound system, the technology, and the interaction they have with their fans. It's all in one group, one show.

If you ever have a chance to see Perfume, do it! Pure, musical joy, with stunning visuals. The three members of Perfume, A-chan, Kashiyuka, and Nocchi, deliver a performance that is entertaining, danceable, and engaging for all ages. Much credit also goes to Yasutaka Nakata, who composes and produces all of the songs, and Mikiko, their choreographer. Note - You do not need to understand Japanese to enjoy this group/music! AND the Perfume fans are the nicest concertgoers I have ever met (and waited in line with).

Wow! What a show this was. I also saw them in 2014 at Hammerstein, and while both shows were impressive, I think this one was even more memorable. They really know how to make the audience's jaws drop. Perfume are not the simple pop group that I think a lot of Americans imagine them to be when they first see or hear them. They're an electronic performance art group, with insanely detailed synchronized choreography (they are dancers more than singers) and an unbelievable light and stage show. They are constantly pushing the boundaries of technology and what can be done visually in a live setting. This show featured lights on drones, all manner of lasers, and of course the LED costumes and "projection mapping" that the group's become famous for recently. "Story" was a real highlight of the show - there are videos of this out there from SXSW, where the performance made its US debut. But to see it in person is a totally different experience. This is full-on futuristic art, blending CGI, dance, traditional and LED lighting and physical movement of panels that makes the whole thing look like a big magic trick. Combined with the pounding music, it's really sensory overload! Perfume is MASSIVE in Japan - they sell out stadiums. They should be that big here. They are really talented; not just the girls who make up the public face of the group, but Yosutaka Nakata (who writes most of the music) and everyone involved in choreographing their dance moves and planning each show. Really just an amazing experience to see them.

At first I was on the fence about going, but then I went and holy crap it was so worth the money. I'd pay double what I paid to go again. If you even want to consider going, just do it. You won't regret it.

Perfume and Team Perfume definitely knows how to run a show!! The music is amazing to listen to with the bass beating your chest, the visuals they use to match the music, AND THEY USED DRONES!!! Will never forget those two days, it was definitely worth waiting in line early morning. Don't be afraid if you don't know anything about Perfume or about Japanese music in general, they definitely know how to get you pumped up, excited, and give you a great time!!! Let's make their dreams come true of performing in Madison Square Garden!!!

This was probably the best concert I have ever been to hands down. Well worth the day long wait in line and the in line entertainment was fun too. Perfume is made up of Nochi (my favorite), A-Chan, YukaChan (aka KashiYuki) I found out about them about eight years ago. They quickly became my favorite J-Pop group. I hope they come back US soon, would love to see them at Madison Square Garden.

Excellent and amazing show by Japanese dancing girls with sensational projection mapping. Momentary stage conversion and fantastic lighting have held my heart firmly. They made the memories which remain in lifetime, as all spectators spent effective time. If two regrettable recollections are removed. One is that there were the groups which made the procession before several days and occupied the front of stage. I want to the pre-numbering system. The second problem is that the goods had been bought up by the all night groups. If these problems are remove, their performance will shake Madison Square Garden.

I have been a fan of Perfume for a long time, and so I freaked out when I bought tickets for their NY show. I've seen videos of their past concerts before and so I knew what to expect: an amazing performance with the most insane visuals you've ever seen. But when I went to this concert (which was my first btw) my mind was absolutely blown away. Everything was just as good if not better than what I expected! I sung my heart out to every song, and loved the intimate interactions between the girls and the crowd! It was such a fun night, and I will DEFINITELY be seeing Perfume again in the future!

The show was flawless. Perfume were gorgeous, sweet, and funny, just as one would expect, and their dancing was absolutely mesmerizing--it was impossible to take my eyes off of them. I more or less never go to concerts, but for Perfume I was dancing and screaming along with everyone. The love that I felt for Perfume was clearly being felt by the rest of the audience too, and it was as though I were a part of a kind of family. I saw the concert again the next night, and it only got better. I would have kept seeing it every night after that if it had stayed it town.

Perfume, techno-pop trio from Japan, once again did not disappoint! Their songs are catchy and singable (whether you know Japanese or not), their dance moves are sharp and impressive, and the effects are always new and exciting! From the cool projection mapping to the cute interaction with the audience, Perfume is a winner hands down! I would recommend their concert to anyone and everyone!

amazing. even scaling down their japanese production leaves an amazing spectacle with lights and drones and lighted dresses. then you have some great dancing, a song (babyface) translated and sung in english, fun audience participation and real energy and enjoyment from the girls. i travelled from the uk to see this show, id do it again without a doubt...

Perfume is an unbelievable J-pop trio. They continue to incorporate technology to their performances and it's absolutely amazing. Their music is so catchy that even the language barrier of their lyrics in Japanese really doesn't matter. I hope other will catch on to Perfume and they'll be able to reach their goal!

The performance was great and energetic from the electronica Jpop group, Perfume. Totally recommended. The seats at the Hammerstein were not so great having our view obstructed. We sat in the back of the mezzanine and the balcony above obstructed our view. We could see the performers on stage, however if they climbed to the second floor of the stage we would get dancing feet. The TV screen also on the second floor stage was not visible. Seats elsewhere would have been better.

Costumes were so cute, and they spoke very good english but they promoted a lot of audience interaction (they had someone from audience work as their translator a little bit) and they had a lot of cute group-bonding interactions in between acts. Music was good mix of old and more recent music, did not get tired at all watching them. Very well paced!

Looking forward to the day they perform at Madison Square Garden!
