Dir en grey

[Pink Usagi Chan]

He pulled out a....razor? Eh, well, it's Kyo. He certainly seems...energetic.
I hope you had a good time!

 

[Kinsao]

I still wish Kyo wouldn't cut himself.

 

[Pink Usagi Chan]

I still wish Kyo wouldn't cut himself.

I agree. Tis disturbing (well, to me at least). .____.

 

[Japanimaniac]

Just a quick wish for a good time to everyone who hasn't left yet. Make them feel welcome so they'll come back and I can go next time, ok!?

 

[Yokan]

cur himself on stage? Like how deep...I don't mind him wanting to cut himself, but not at a live concert, I think.

 

[dniwer]

Ahhh, I just made it back to Florida after yesterday's crazy live. I was with Nana007 for the first couple of songs, then somehow we got pushed apart, pushed backed together, pushed apart again, haha, I got crushed so much in that show. Oh, and my shirt strap got ripped off and I had a slight wardrobe malfunction (a la Janet Jackson), but it was all good.

All the fan crap aside, the show was AMAZING! It was so surreal seeing Diru live, but the energy that the band had and the performances they gave were stellar. For me, Die made the show. I started off on Die's side, then in the middle of the show I was more in front of Kyo (during his blood/vomit/self-mutilation bit) then I got pushed back over to Die's side towards the end. He didn't do anything that crazy, I don't think, but I couldn't keep my eyes off of Die and his guitar. I was almost in a trance towards the end of the show, just staring at him and the guitar and paying close attention to his every move with the instrument. I guess I was awe-struck. I've officially decided that I'm going to finally learn how to play guitar, I've been putting it off for a long time (5+ years), but now I'm going to actually do it. Die is amazing.

Alright, I don't have like a play by play of the show or anything, I'm sure you can find that elsewhere. Have fun at the LA show guys, I'm sure Diru will be back sometime soon, they enjoyed themselves waaaaaay too much not to.

He cut himself pretty superficially, not that deep. He cut his arm a bit and his chest. Then he started spitting up blood and an orangish colored phlegm-like substance. Um, yeah, the razor bit was the least of it. I'm not sure if he was cutting the insides of his mouth with his fingernails to produce blood or biting his finger tips, but it was something like that. He kept putting his fingers to his mouth and flinging spit all over the audience, then the blood/orange mess was everywhere. It was all over his face, he kept spitting it from his mouth and spitting it up onto his nose/eyes and onto his chest. TOTALLY GROSS TOTALLY AWESOME! (Haha, poison and norm should understand that last part)

 

[pinkkillerkisou]

It sounds like a spectacular show... and a new song! I can't wait to hear more music.

I hope they come back soon... and I hope a job by then and my Diru savings replenished.

 

[Nana007]

Yea, I kind of cringed when he did that and the blood thing. But when he did it he had like this crazy psychotic look in his eyes. And it wasn't deep, very shallow, But he did have the No Future in reverse carved in. But man is he a great performer, actually everyone was good. They made alot of eye contact, pumped up the crowd, and came to the front a couple of times. And I mean I had a good spot, I could see everything, except for Kaoru, he was to far to my right. My back and body feels like hell though.

[Kinsao]

Ahhhh, Diru rules for charisma!

I've officially decided that I'm going to finally learn how to play guitar

DO IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nuff said!

EDIT: I'm not normally like this, but... has anyone else fallen in love with Die's red pointy guitar?
I mean... IT'S RED!!! IT'S POINTY!!!! *feasts eyes* what more could anyone ask for?

 

[Nana007]

When they were setting up for Dir en grey and set up Die's guittar, that was all I could stare at. I too, have been wanting to play guitar, I have a funky old acoustic but I can only play very very very simple stuff, and I haven't touched it in like 6 months. But someone said that it is easier to play electric. And its also smaller so it would be easier for me, I have really really tiny hands so my reach isn't that good. But I figure one of these days I will take proper lessons.

 

[boobiebutt]

oops totally posted that while reading the the second to the last page and forgot to continue reading onward T_T sorry haha and i cried when kyo cut himself........i mean that blood vomit part and all that is cool but......i kept thinking to myself.....y kyo y?!?! stop cutting urself!!! and i cried when he sang the solo......and the song was Higeki wa me futa wo oroshita asashiki
i cried when he did his solo at the end of the song too :'(

 

[Kinsao]

Awww... a lot of crying going on... *hugs* bet it was so awesome though! ... apart from the Kyo cutting himself part =*(

Ah Nana... the fretboard is no smaller I'm afraid... *but* the good thing is the action is lower so it's easier to press the strings down, good if you have small hands ^^ but for reach, it is the same.
If you played the acoustic guitar before, the electric seems... not exactly easier but less hard work physically. ^^
I think I am on the verge of worshipping the red pointy guitar. ☝

 

[boobiebutt]

hey post a picture of it T_T or maybe make a threat just for dies pointy red guitar hahah

 

[Kinsao]

Your wish is my command...

 

[boobiebutt]

*hugs* ty kinsaoooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i wonder what kind of guitar it is....... x_x i remember seeing it on stage......it stuck out like a sore thumb all bright and red


oh yeah........i hope u guys in la have fun!!! eff that.......I KNOW U WILL HAVE FUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *CHEERS*

 

[grenadeglovegirl]

Aaaah, I'm in love with Die's guitar too... hehe. It's so shiny *_* and pretty

I kind of want it

Anyways, the NYC show was amazing... I cried and stuff, hehe


But, Diru sounded and looked great. And the new song was good too. Although when I heard it I wasn't sure if it was a new song or one I had just forgotten about... but I think that's because I was about to pass out

But yep, the show was wonderful and I hope everyone in LA has a good time, and I hope that Diru comes back very sooooon

 

[boobiebutt]

lmao kinsao...

the sound wasnt as good as it was for despa........

and i still cant believe i saw deg....like it seems to be a dream right now and its so surreal

 

[Nana007]

Right now I still can't believe it. I really can't and it really feels like it is a dream, when Kyo said Last Song I could feel my heart breaking. I hope they come back. If they come back I will definately go again.\

And about the guitar I have really really really small hands, plus really stubby fingers. And I should relearn to play. As of now I can play only simple chords. I stopped learning when my Uncle died 3 years ago. I lost my motivation to play, since he was teaching me. But maybe my new found obsession with Die's pointy, shiny, red, sexy guitar will help me. (I also have an obsession with Toshiya's Bass, but I like my fingers without calluses)

 

[boobiebutt]

i just thought.......everyone knows how crazy and early fans lined up for their first us tour........nowi gotta line up earlier then i did to be first again........ x_x im gonna die....... but who the heck cares!!! COME AGAIN DEG!!!!! AND THIS TIME WITH NO BARRICADESSSSSSS!!!!!!! GRRRRRRRRRRRR T_T


my friend sent me that pic.........thats the front of the line.........guess which one i am!!! KAREN AND KATIE DONT SAY ANYTHING!!!!!!! lol ty for choco-deg for taking the picture!!!!!!!!

 

[grenadeglovegirl]

Psh, I totally want to say which one is yooou...*cough*camerawhore*cough*

Anywaays, I see like a piece of me behind you XD

 

[POISONxIVY]

Hmm... if boobiebutt is the guy with the big smile and turtle neck then I remember seeing you! I think I might see red from Erica's hair (normphobic) I must have been too short to show up from that far away haha. I had the pink and black dreads on, did you guys see me? It was like jref central where we were in line haha!

 

[Dollporn]

Wow! Sorry to break in, but at that Texas gig, did they wear no make-up at all?? That's so unusual.
And I put my money in with PoisonXIny on boobiebut being the guy in the front with the smile.

 

[POISONxIVY]

They didn't have any makeup on at the NY show either, but they all looked great!

 

[Normphobic]

That's funny, I always pictured boobiebutt being a dorky fat white dude. Then again, I picture almost all Jrock fans being dorky and fat lol (no offense to any fans here, but I am in America after all!).

Hmm, I never wonder if people saw me or remember me from a show, because I already know how much I tend to stand out (especially with my sister). All I wondered about this show is if anyone could see up my skirt (I was in the balcony) lol. Not that I'd really care, but there were a lot of guys at the show (especially hot Asian ones), so it probably made their night even better haha.
