yea it's so stupid to boo jrock bands i bet they felt really stupid booing at dir en grey seeing how big they got comming to america, they have SOO many fans...but the Diru concert i went to people were booing american bands XDD
but the opening bands really did suck :\

i agree, but i think as a jrock community we should try not to boo american bands in concerts with both american and jrock bands, as you know, do unto others and all that. plus we want the bands to keep supporting each other, right? ^_^ this isn't directed at anyone, just in general especially with TOC coming up. remember, the american bands are doing the jrock ones a favor, so let's be respectful, right?
:-):-):-)
 
Dakkii: I 100% agree with you; it really has to go both ways. I mean, no one HAS to like a particular band, but it is necessary to be respectful even in their dislike.
And lol JREF D'espa representative? lol okay well let me continue with my duties with TWO announcements:
Firstly, IF you go to www.fye.com, you can preorder the U.S releases of Mirror and Spiral Staircase, AND you'll get a D'espairsRay poster for ordering through them.

Secondly, they will have a new single out May 14 titled "Brilliant". It has two tracks, the first being the title track while the second is still currently unnamed. No extras/different versions have been announced yet as far as I know but I'll be on the lookout for any new info. XD
 
Yea i haven't boo'd at any bands
I think it's pretty immature because bands are going out there playing their music for their fans and it takes alot to go on stage!

I can't wait the concert is in 4 days O__O <33
and my friends gonna get me back stage *___*
ahh i can't wait it's gonna be amazing!!

I also can't wait to hear the new single thanks for the info
 
Yay! You know so much Michigo! And I totally agree with you and Dakkii. You should always be respectful to the other bands.
 
thank you michikooo!! i just got my paycheck so SPREE TIMEEEE! super excited for the new single, and now i can get my hands on spiral staircase! <3

TOC is being difficult... one of my friends might not be going now, and i should be looking at colleges that week, not to mention my um JOB... @_@ WILL. GET. THERE!!!!
 
Yeah no problem! also, surprisingly, CDJapan already has the preorder up so if you want to nab a firstpress make sure you do it soon! (firstpress comes with photocard and posters while they last)

Also, good luck getting to TOC, dakkii! Do your best X3
 
Thanks a bunch Michiko! I went and preordered both Brilliant and Spiral Staircase! X3 I already have a copy of Mirror so I don't think that I am going to get it too. XD Fye didn't mention the poster but I guess it just comes with it. I am pretty excited for the new single!

I can't ever imagine booing a band under any circumastances. :? It just seems so inconsiderate since they are on stage doing their best. :unsure:

Good luck dakkii! I am sure you will figure something out. :-)
 
The concert was AMAZING!!!!
i loved it, i couldn't believe i was actually there, it still seems like a dream XD

but too bad they only played like 4 songs T__T
And the equipment they used was pretty bad quality it was hard to hear the music...I kno they played Damned and Sixty nine but I couldn't tell the other 2 songs but i knew them X__x

But anyways, Hizumi sounded amazing!!! his screaming was just as good as the recordings *___* <3

And i was on the left side with zero, he kept smiling it was to adorable :kawaii:
My friend kept lifting me up and i made a little heart sign with my hands and he saw it and smiled and i kept screaming zero!!

They really looked like they were having fun because alot of the non jrock fans supported them to and Karyu and zero were jumpin all over the place XD

Also during the autograph session..it was really amazing i shook all their hands @__@!! i was also breathing really hard and in english Zero asked me if i was ok *____* i was flipping out and i said im ok and thankyou

also Tsukasa had made a little cute face torwards me because i was crying a bit i was just so excited XDD; also hizumi was like See you soon to me and my friend so im guessing he'll be back in america ..hopefully =D! Karyu was wearing these huge sunglasses and he was smiling away

ahh they looked so great and everyone was so nice!!

MUCC and The underneath were amazing to but they didn't get as much support from the Nonjrock fans they were being kinda mean T__T
 
Yay Hitsugi_love! 😎 It sounds like you had so much fun! That's so cool that they cared about you. They love their fans so much! It sounds awesome even if there was poor sound quality. 👍
 
Sweetie XD very funny i would if i had the money but i'm also saving up to a convention so i'm not going to be taking a lot of money with me
 
I totally understand that. Make sure you get at least some kind of souvenir instead of using it all on water or food like I did at the last concert I went to. $5 a bottle is ridiculous. Or maybe it was $3, I can't remember. But anyways, I didn't have enough money to even buy anything. I'm so dumb sometimes. :p
 
yeah i know how expensive thing get on a concert that why i've trained myself to go for hours without food or water XD
 
Yay! Concert training! I've gotta learn to do that. It takes careful planning to go to a concert.
 
ooh im so exited! I was bumming today because Im probably not gonna be able to go to see despa in seattle, but I happened to stop in at the FYE store while I was at the mall and I found the Despa Spiral Staircase DVD so I bought it! I cant wait to watch it :D
 
despair rox
squall is a great song by the way lol!
despair came to my state but i missed it. does any1 have a site of tours

@Nan Desu Ka
Who's Iori and where did he go?


Iori is the amazingly talented guitarist and leader of one of the best bands I've ever heard. Siva. He left the band for "personal reasons" as of March 23rd...It's depressing T_T
 
GAHH I KNEW I MISSED IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :(:(:(

thanks for that post though semisweet

oo, and that's a fancy site! :-D
