Dir en grey

[BlackSoul]

@andie
I can totally understand your worries, especially now when they have so much contact with america and are touring with american bands..but there's one thing that makes me think that they won't change...you don't know about their private life, you only know the things they want to show (in comments or at their blog), it's not like that they're hunted by the press and everybody knows every detail from their life, like it's the case with some american stars and I think that prevents them from being fragile for drugs...also they don't seem to be only together to make music and work..they're friends and help eachother...but that's only my opinion and I really hope that they will be forever this amazing band!!!

and those shirt-less pics of Kao were great....*drools*

^ Don't forget they are Japanese and their moral codes and they way they conduct themselves is entirely different from the west. They'll probably hang out together and get drunk and have fun but I don't think that they will go as far as some of the bands here.

Holy schmokes! I've never seen the whole thing like that either. That's pretty crazy stuff. Man I wish he'd cut off that facial hair, he's much better looking with it off, and his hair in one of the crazy style it can hold.

O_________o" NOOO~ his hair is the most beautiful hair in the world! I just L O V E his hair XD

about his tattoo... me and a freind we speculated on that just since... a half year~ And by founding this picture, we just were like "that was soooooooooo clear, we knew..." Just asking myself now... how is his back looking? XD

Yes... I agree with you... Precious4e

LOL okay so maybe I got a little lucky.

@Bloodlust- I thought they were just flat out scary My mum thought the singer of Bleed The Dream was 100% on acid. Ahaha! I asked what she thought about Kyo, and she said 'he didn't seem that strange' I was like

@pinkbuta304 - LOL I have that poster ^^ It hangs ever so convieniently above my bed ^^

Aha, Kao is my idol!! The stuff he does with his guitar is phenomenal!! I don't mind his facial hair, but it does make him look a little bit older.

@Thirteen- I'm so mad, the pictures don't get bigger

 

[Riyko]

Jeez... I didn't mean to sound offensive

It's ok, I wasn't singling you out. After a while of hearing that the opening bands sucks you get tired of it. It takes alot of courage for a band to open for a band like Dir en grey or an even bigger band and even if you don't like their music you should at least respect them for opening for Dir en grey.

I talked to some of the members of Bleed the Dream at the Toronto show and they are very nice and laid back, they we're giving people hugs, taking pictures with them and just talking to the fans waiting in line, where as fair to midland didn't even attempt to talk to anyone. I'm glad that Bleed the Dream was there, but they could of gone without fair to midland.

I've always been even if you don't like a band you shouldn't talk badly about them. It would be like someone talking really badly about Dir en grey for one reason or another. That's what I was trying to get at the whole time.

Anyways, I'm waiting to find out that my two copies of Despair in the Womb have arrived so I can pay for them and have them sent to me. It's kind of sad though because I have no one to give my second copy to now since that person doesn't want me to talk to him

Did anyone here who went to any of the shows, get to meet the band?

 

[Reita-kun]

you are so lucky... i want a deg poster too! *jealous*

But just because I didn't like them doesn't mean I don't respect them...

@Reita-kun - There's probably one on eBay.

Did anyone see Kaoru and toshiya on tv last night

 

[[~Hitsugi_love~]]

Well the host what ever his name was XDD
He kept saying dir en grey like "DEEERU en grey" and i laughed everytime he said it, im amazed kaoru and toshiya stayed calm but they did laugh a little
He asked questions like "Is that REAL blood kyo uses and what was that trick with kyo's eyes bleeding??" Kaoru talked mainly, and he said "His eyes were not bleeding it was blood from his mouth" XDD the guy also asked "Where do you think the fans get this information from and how is jrock spreading across america?!" Kaoru said "maybe from the japanese video games and anime they learned about the music and he said he has no idea how they got information" Toshiya said a couple things and he was so adorable ;__;!!

 

[pinkbuta304]

yeah i saw them on fuse! they were acting all cool and steven was so excited it was funny. Toshiya didn't speek much tho.

 

[[~Hitsugi_love~]]

@Reita

aww im sure it will be on youtube soon don't worry!!
if i find the link ill definitly post it

 

[Precious4e]

the fuse tv interview

 

[Bloodlust]

Hyde_Is_My_Antidrug: HAHAHA... lesbo points. Yeah, me too.

I missed the Fuse thing because I don't get it out here! Thanks for the Youtube link.

Riyko: It's true, they were brave to open for DEG. I wasn't impressed by either of them, but I suppose I could be nicer *upsets the natural order of things*

 

[Precious4e]

part 2 of the interview

 

[Hyde_is_my_anti-drug]

And Kyo has screwed over more people's orientations than just about any other J-Rocker. It surprised me at first but I've gotten used to my straight guy friends getting all googly-eyed over our favorite demonic midget.

 

[Yumiko_Okahawa]

Have a look at this... how could you just NOT WANT him?! ^^"

And because of the interview with Totchi and kao~
awwww~ soooo cute together!!! They're still my most favorite pairing ever XD ^^
I just lieked to the kaoru "sniff" and say "moooooooou" *lol* and I liked how they were smiling, when -Steven- said "Dir en grey" I just wanted to know, what both of them were thinking at that moment X3~

 

[Hyde_is_my_anti-drug]

My favorite part of the interview is his mutilation of Kyo's name. It's actually gotten to the point where I find mispronunciation of certain things mildly amusing (but still annoying).

 

[Bloodlust]

Anyway... Kyo getting tattooed. Makes me all squishy inside. He looks peaceful.. maybe it doesn't hurt as much as I'm expecting it to? Probably does, he just likes the pain. My kinda guy!

 

[Hyde_is_my_anti-drug]

I less than three Kyo's tattoos... although I'm still mourning the loss of being able to SEE the butterfly

 

[Reita-kun]

~on topic~

I also less than three Kyo-sama's tattoos... ><

 

[Saishu]

Did you guys know that there's an article about Dir en grey in the April issue of Revolver?

 

[Reita-kun]

I've heard of that... but I havent seen it... unfortunately...
