Kaoru is pretty awesome ^ ^ at the Pop's Venue concert, he was very polite and patient with me as I scrambled about to get his autograph. He didn't have a pen on him, so I had to let him head backstage while I "comandeered" one from another. I think my broken Japanese kind of made me look like an idiot ._.; but in the end, I got his, Shinya's, and Die's autograph on my UROBORUS album, so that was pretty cool of them ^_^ totally glad I took Japanese 101 in college!

[ImadeThisNameForAFI]

Wow! You talked to Kaoru *o* (my favorite). I don't think your Japanese made you sound like an idiot. He was probably just glad that you were trying. They like that a lot. I got Toshiya and Shinya's autograph, but I never saw Kaoru after the show ;-; The most I got from him were the faces he made at me in my Gaika, Chinmoku Ga Nemuru Koro video. And that alone meant the world to me <3 Hopefully next time I'll get his autograph! Lucky you though! Way to go!

声でてないね

[JennyIsShy]

I was there. :'D

[Arsinen07]

Not before me though. :P

[ImadeThisNameForAFI]

A challenge? Lawl...we'll see. We'll see... >.>

[Arsinen07]

the venue was small and the crowd was on the small side too but still the whole place was crackling with energy. Do you have anymore vids?

[ImadeThisNameForAFI]

Loved everything about this concert. I waited in line for seven hours just to get a good spot up front. I love Diru so much <3 And I wish I took more videos D: I do have a bunch of pictures on my myspace though. The url's in my profile if you want it :]

[Arsinen07]

I loved everything about them and especially this concert. I just wish somebody had gotten a video of Repetition of Hatred....actually I wish to relive it again it was so amazing. Plus getting my CD signed by Tosh and Shin....Sometimes I still can't believe it. *nostalgic*

[ImadeThisNameForAFI]

Agreed. Agreed. I wish I filmed Grief and Kodou also...but by the time I got my arm unstuck again they were already through the first verse D: They seriously need to come back...like now.

Ohmygosh...Totchi and Shinya...they were gorgeous! I forgot how to breathe when they looked at me after signing my CD. <3 If only Kaoru signed...he's my favorite...but I probably would've gotten arrested for jumping over the barricade to latch myself onto him xD

[Arsinen07]

I was surprisingly calm although I think I smiled like an idiot when Tosh looked directly at me. And When i said thanks Shin mumbled something at me I guess it was a you're welcome but not sure.

[ImadeThisNameForAFI]

Yeah...all I could say was thank you to each of them. I was afraid they wouldn't understand much else and if I said anything in Japanese, I probably would've murdered it just because I have the worst luck. Totchi just smiled and nodded and Shinya kind of mouthed something to me xD I guess it was your welcome.

[Arsinen07]

I think if we didn't have to move along so quickly maybe I could have gotten a few words out of Tosh after all I know that all of them can speak a bit of English.

[ImadeThisNameForAFI]

Yeah they can. They just aren't very confident with it. And that is why I didn't attempt to speak Japanese for them xD

[Arsinen07]

True true but seriously I would love to actually sit down and get to know the man under the rock god.

[ImadeThisNameForAFI]

Haha...who wouldn't though? That would be the best thing ever. But they're just too awesome...so the closest we can get is backstage/behind-the-scenes clips D: What a depressing thought...lawl.

I WILL meet Kaoru one day. Personally. That is a fact. And I will hug him too. mwahahaha <3

[RockLeePeaceGai]

whoa.. kyo's voice cracked near the end... i really hope he doesn't kill his vocal chords!! such an amazing song though!! wish they did this at my concert!

[UraharaYoruichi]

Thats cool. I heard that before they came to US, Kyo doesn't like people singing along too...So I wonder if you know how his expression is.

[ImadeThisNameForAFI]

Hmm...that's interesting. I dunno about that though. I mean...there were at least two times where he put the microphone down and had us all sing as loud as we could.

[UraharaYoruichi]

Aww, yes, he sang so beautiful back then ^w^ I wish they come back soon

[deathscythe387]

which ones?

[UraharaYoruichi]

Did everyone sing along?

[ImadeThisNameForAFI]

Oh yeah. Everyone sang/screamed to probably every song :) It was awesome.

[snake333eater]

I can't stand it when the audience does that. I didn't come here to listen to a million squealing fans. D:< I came to listen to the band live. No offense intended. ewe

[ImadeThisNameForAFI]

Well...you don't exactly pay attention to the fans when you're there. You're there for Dir en Grey so all your attention is focused on them. But I like the feeling of having this connection to everyone in the room when everyone is singing together. Its cool.
