I'd just like to thank #Apple and it's #iOS for its utterly useless #autofocus for ruining most of my #SelfieStick shots. Really glad I blocked everyone else's view w/my #iPhone5s for the minute or so I was shooting. Seriously, Apple, #wtf. #AKB48 #blurry

Compare this photo to my last post. So, yeah, I saw #AKB48 perform. Because I squinted. I think #JapanDayInc should add seats for the bandshell at next year's #JapanDayInCentralPark. #JapanDay2015 needed seats bad. Too much pushing and shoving and not enough enjoying. #JapanDay #CentralPark #NYC

This is pretty much the only view a lot of us had while #AKB48 performed at #JapanDayInCentralPark this year. This is why it's good to keep a #SelfieStick handy at all times. #JapanDay2015 #JapanDay #CentralPark #NYC

8 members of the famous #jpop group #AKB48 on stage at the #NaumbergBandshell during #JapanDayInCentralPark today. It was pretty cool to see them live! #JapanDay2015 #CentralPark #JapanDay #NYC
