+D'espairsRay+

No Way! VVS rules! (not really!!! it sucks for me a lot) Do you pass out at concerts? I passed out so bad at KMFDM once, my hearing and vision went out completely, and PLOP I ended up on the floor.
I can't take the medication for it cause I have asthma, and the medicine+asthma doesnt mix I guess. I have never met anyone else with it either.
My music project Aphasiac is having songs all named after my illness' (and Erica's too, combined we have a million I think) so Vasovagal Syncope is one of them! maybe I can dedicate it to you. I have decided to get a wheelchair made especially for me to play bass in at shows (if I play a long set) that way I won't faint HAHA! it will look sweet as well.
I have fibryomyalgia from VVS, from the lack of blood supply going to my brain they think ruined nerves and what not (that explains a lot about me haha j/k!) We need to sleep with jrockers to cure our illness! I read about VVS and FMS a lot online and all of the pages say that sex helps. No wonder I am so sick...
 

I tried to... but they were shrunken on me That's the biggest I can get them to be I wish I could get my hair like Zero's... hmm... *ponders* If I get my hair braided like that, I won't have to wait for my hair to grow out anymore! I could get it done now technically... But then I'd ahve to wait even longer to cosplay as BORN Karyu
 
I don't go to many concerts but I have a tendency to pass out in the bathroom and at my old campus and graveyards a lot... haha... I usually end up injured which cause me arthritis later... I feel so old...

aww... that would be so sweet... and if I'm ever in a band I'll cover Vasovagal Syncope in your honor a wheelchair would be an awesome prop... ^^

Hmmm... I'm too stubborn to go to the doctor but I bet any money I have that fibryomyalgia too... it would certainly explain how stupid and forgetful I've become... I've never been this stupid before. I definitly haven't been getting enough sex... D'espa should help their poors Manias suffering from this... we should write them a letter
 
Yeah, you should see a rheumatologist. There's 18 (or 17 I could be wrong, you know the memory problems with FMS ha) points in your body that cause pain with FMS, I have 17 out of the 18 which is a lot. I get flare ups where my memory is bad, and where I get a lot of pain. I used to have the best memory ever, mine is still really good compared to most people though. It does make me feel stupid at times, and I hate that.

A lot of it depends on the weather, or if I am sick with something else. There isn't really anything they can do for FMS, I tried a few medications and nothing has worked. You pretty much just have to deal with it and learn to live with it. I do feel really old, sometimes I wonder what I will be like when I am older, cause half of the time I feel like im dying!

A lot of the fainting episodes for me depends on if im overly excited (like at a concert) but mainly just standing for too long. I have to move around so much if I am standing in a line or talking to people or whatever. Luckily I have a lot of symptoms that let me know I am going to faint so I can prevent it 75% of the time. (I am sure you know about that! the whole getting really hot and sweaty, feeling like you are gonna puke, getting dizzy, losing your hearing and vision, ect...) Maybe one day I will be pain-free, but that probably won't happen until I have sex haha I'm saving myself for a japanese man lol.

I was really proud of myself for not fainting at the Despa show! I kept flexing my muscles and standing like I was in the army! I did sit down a bit at the convention, but I stood so much that day. It really was a miracle I didn't faint. I was kind of wanting to faint in front of Tsukasa just to freak him out and get all caring towards me HAHA! j/k I also considered pretending I wasn't breathing for some mouth to mouth... I knew there was good that came from all these problems lol.

We could have a D'espairsray fans with VVS support group? haha
 
my bro's being a ***** >.>
neways.. =___= i guess i now learn what VVS is..
i dunno if i had it before, but i was very near such symptoms twice. and during those two times, i was getting my haircut. first time i stood, and then things felt warm, and i suddenly got sweaty, and i was dizzy, and then my mom complained how i looked undead.. same for second time when she was cutting my hair, except that i was sitting. But of course my symptoms weren't as severe as i've read online lol xD

I'm afraid that if there were no moshpits, i might pass out xDD!! well, not that i'm excited.

I'd also be worried if this D'espairsray fans with VVS group all hung out during the live, and ALL fainted =_______=
 
You were probably just going to faint. Syncope is the term for fainting and you will get those symptoms no matter what the cause of fainting is. Vasovagal syncope is a disease of the nervous system that affects the heart and circulatory system. You probably stood up too quickly and your heart couldn't circulate enough blood, so your brain was deprived of oxygen.

Wow, this thread has gotten way off topic haha. Well, not really, considering D'espairsRay has the ability to make girls swoon. I thought for sure Bre would faint at their show, because we had been standing a lot that day. Knock on wood...there's always the next tour!

My music project Aphasiac is having songs all named after my illness'
So, I take it the next single will be "Genital Herpes?" Joking of course! You could also name it ""
(I have always wanted some excuse to use that smiley.)
 
Hate to break up all the nice chit-chat.... *glances around* But I come bearing gift!!

pk actually sent it to me as a belated Christmas present... She was uploading it, or trying to upload it, but YSI was being a stubborn [insert many curse words here] and I offered to upload it for her... So, I did, and here it is for all the Mania in this thread to download. If it needs to be uploaded again, just let me know, and I will gladly It's a surprise as to what it is, for I doubt there are many people who already have it, so download and enjoy! ^^

It's much better to have, isn't it?

They look so adorable... Hizumi looks like he doesn't actually want to be there... pk was definitely right about that And Zero's scarf! Karyu and that candle... geez, what a dork But a lovely rapeable dork And Tsukasa... he kind of looks contemplative to me... indecisive? :? Ehh.. they're all so cute

Yes, it is! Speaking of which, does anyone have the clip of them bowling? I would love to have a copy of that! Tsukasa slapping himself is the best. They are much more lively in that video. They all look bored to death in this one.
 
Oh, I love that clip! I feel bad for Zero though... he doesn't seem to be very good at bowling I think they were all funny... but Tsukasa hitting himself was quite entertaining
 
I want to go bowling with Despa so bad! I am sure when they come next year jhouserock is going to have an auction to go bowling with them (like they are with Seek and Aya haha!) I would be on Tsukasa's team, so we would totally win. I used to be on a league. I have 2 balls (ha), a bag, and my own shoes. We would be stylin! Maybe he'd let me slap him around a bit.
Speaking of Tsukasa, I finally dreamt of him last night.
 
Yeah it was great! It was similar to meeting him at Sugoicon. There was a photo session with the band, and I remember wanting to get them to smile and be a little more lively in the photos. I was saying be happy! and I wore this little skirt (that I plan on wearing next time I see them) and I had Despa underwear on (which I don't even own) and when I went to sit down I purposely lifted up my skirt in the back so they all saw the underwear and laughed. I then asked Tsukasa to come sit in front by me, no offense to Karyu so he did. After the photos they were sitting in line to talk to them and what not this time I had wrote all this stuff down for him to read. I then gave him this present, and he loved it. He wanted to pose for a picture with the gift, so Erica was taking pictures of us. I was asking if I could give him a kiss on his cheek for a picture, and he was all about it! haha He also grabbed my hand like he did at Sugoi as well. Then TLV was playing, and Acey asked me to come on stage to play bass on a song. I had a hard time getting up there cause of my huge boots so Steve, their guitarist helped me up which was so very kind of him lol. (I remember started to play Cage by Diru as a joke to get the jrock fans in the crowd all worked up) Afterwards we hung out with Despa, but I only remember what went on with Tsukasa. (ooh lala) I also remember putting the personal pictures I had with him online in a private photobucket only showing a few people, and it got hacked so there were pics of me at Tsukasa floating around all over the internet!

oh~
what a nice dream! lol
I had a Zero related dream once...In it, I was walking around my (small) town, and I saw him, so I walked up to him and asked him how he was in Japanese...and he got this embarased look and replied in English "I'm lost..."
no kidding zero...haha...ok, my dreams are dull
I have that bowling clip on my other computer so I will attempt to upload that later (As long as yousendit isn't being retarted)
 
Thank you AP for the cool pics and download!
Jeez I missed out on a lot... I don't have any interesting illnesses at the moment...
 
Bowling with D'espa would be a very awesome experience. I think I'd pair up with Zero, I'm not too good at bowling myself, so then he won't feel so bad, and nor will I.

That's a nice dream... I've had my share of D'espa dreams... and then the ones focused more on one of the individual members...

Yay!! Thank you very much 304x in advance!

Not a problem Kinsao... I miss seeing you around here
 
Gomen for double posting, but I uploaded the full-size images from the Shock Jam Edition 1 photoshoot in the Entertainment Gallery under J-Rock. In case anyone wants too see them fully, because they look much, much, MUCH better full-sized.
 
Thanks for uploading the larger images! I will have to go look at them when I get home from work.

Speaking of work, this does relate to Despa and it is kind of funny.

I work in Real Estate selling new homes in a subdivision. I do all of the selections for the homes (since it's new construction) so sometimes I have to drive clients around in the sub looking at other homes to see what brick they want and everything else. (Or I have to show houses to people and look at lots) It seems like every time I get to work I end up on a Despa song (if not it's either Gazette, Merry, Miyavi, D, or Diru) I always forget to turn my CD player off before I get out of the car. Yesterday I forgot to, and I got in the car with clients and my music was blaring! It was on reddish diva version hahaha. It has happened twice before, I usually just say something funny and laugh it off with the people... either way it amuses me.

I need to start remembering to turn it off! Today I did, because of what happened yesterday. Hey maybe I will get some new fans for the band?? Haha I doubt it these people are usually 30-60 years old, but you never know. It'd be really funny if it was a Japanese client of mine... maybe I should purposely have Japanese music on for them lol.
 
Thats great!!! That has actually happened to me before and i dont drive lol. I was in the car with my dads friends and i asked him to turn on the radio and Garnet started BLASTING in the car i started laughing SOOOO HARD!!!!! it was hilarious. my dad did too and his friends looked at me with that look like if they wanted to say What the hell was that?? but they didnt say anything.

o i had another incident with Garnet too...lol i went to see harry potter with my friends on opening day and my friend Caity had her ipod and speakers with her and she blasted Garnet really loud in the middle of the lobby area and i thought i was soo funny people were looking at us like where the hell is the music coming from since the speakers where in her coat pocket hehe
 
Hey that's cool! If you can get more people hooked on D'espa... has to be good. I wish I could play music at work, but unfortunately we're not allowed to. The only person I can get interested in it is my mom by playing it in the car every time I drive anywhere... which is not often.
 
wahh.. the Like an Edison 2005 message didn't work for me ;( how can you see them? .. i can't see them. i tried to open with Winamp, only heard low volume voices, then opened with Windows Media Player, didn't work either.
 
Not a problem. They're just so much more beautiful when they're full-sized. There are 4 more that I think I'll epload as well... They're close-ups of their faces.... Anyone want me to? XD *stupid question*

Funny stories... That's never happened to me, but I'm sure it will

Poor Kinsao... they're depriving you They should be beaten the bad way.

I'm getting more people into D'espa... 'tis going well. I've recruited quite a few, and they're also getting more people into them as well. ^^ Maybe they'll get popular enough to come to Canada soon *is stupidly hopeful*

Aww... I don't know what could be wrong, goatz... :? It works fine for me....
 
Thanks for the photos! I don't get it, I uploaded a photo on there after Thomas made that big stink about it and it took two weeks for the image to be approved! I think it was to spite me since I made that pervert comment haha.
 
To spite you.

They were pending overnight, and this morning, in my hotmail inbox, there were 4 emails of approval. I might have put something perverted in, but I didn't want to risk them not being approved.
