Dir en grey Wiltern concert "review" (LA 3/23/06)

[ninjao8]

you were at the la show??? cleaver sleazoid wasnt the first song, they played a bunch of their new stuff first, then they played the final and cleaver sleazoid later.....the show was fucking amazing though, dir en grey forever!!!!!!!!!!

[OshareStrife]

You attending Nov. 29th concert? If so, perhaps I'll see you there or something. =D

[slushymermaid666]

No, I don't travel for Dir en grey anymore.

[XxReplicaxX]

I agree with you it was amazing! Best concert I've ever been to. Can't forget this one girl who passed out right in the pit, she was inches from me and we just saw her being lifted up by security. Then another girl has a seizure right in front of us. That was scary! It was a one time experiance.

I went again this year but got there late. I got to meet Yoshiki the dummer of X-Japan he got there late too. But the 06' concert was the best!

[Soramewmew]

I LOVE YOU....LOTS.

Beautiful review.

[SKAREKROWXD]

You're freakin' funny slushymermaid666!!! Keep rockin'!!!

[kittrix]

i was there ^^ hehe and it was my first concert with dir en grey, i loved it with all my heart. i flew from a town called manteca to see them lol

[NarakusDemon89]

i think i saw you!!! i was in that row too!!

[blackraven1614]

I went to family value's tour, and they are freaking awesome live! I'm also going to there show in Feb, and I can't wait.

[dxg67]

sweet.i really want to go to one really bad NOW!!!

[bakarina]

LOL

u make me laugh but thanks for the great review, because I am going to the next Dir En Grey concert on 2/23/07. But Im going to get my ticket there at the venue =/ I hope I wont get squish in the bak =/

[Shadowkero]

I'm going to the next one! I'm sooo excited! But I'm afraid too! Dx Are there mosh pits?

[slushymermaid666]

Yes.

[GalleyThePirate]

...No...

[Deadarrowcat]

I got to shake hands with kaoru and shinya there....i am so happy

[jagged0207]

did you? when? do you happen to be like one of two white girls that were also backstage? cuz i never did meet those girls.

[Deadarrowcat]

huh....im white....if thats what you wanted to know? lol and i was backstage

[jagged0207]

i was backstage with my three friends which is why i ask. cuz i remember two white girls that asked some guy "what do we do? we just got these passes" was that you?

[KaoruHimuraTakarai]

Thank you for the review (even when I don't understand much of what you're saying because I'm Spanish ^^U), Dir en Grey forever!!

[Deadarrowcat]

Im going to see them on sept 1....

[slushymermaid666]

*COintwodaysUGH* >_>

[jointed]

Yo, me too! <3 My friend, her brother and I are going to be in section 102 row V around seat 136. Definately not going to the pit because we're all really short and small, fragile creatures, yes indeed...

shwhatever. I'm gonna give them a drawing at the meet and greet!!! :D

[BRBbreakdown]

ahahah this amused me, youre funny

[sugarfiend]

AHH..gosh you just made me even more anxious to see diru ^___^;; -is going to see them 8/15!- w00t x.X;; maybe i should join the deg community...i didnt know there was one ^^; my name on LJ is sugaredv0mit.. uh.. just so youknow, i guess 0.0 but you know what sucks? dir en grey is the very first band playing, the OPENING ACT! how disrespectful... stupid korn, deftones, stonesour, flyleaf..wahh D: although i do love korn. the others..not so much. but eh^^; beggars can't be choosers, ne?

[slushymermaid666]

*going there for Stone Sour more so than Dir en grey* Beggars can't be choosers indeed. Although I don't see how that's disrespectful seeing as Deg is nowhere near as respected in America as all of the other ones on the lineup. *shrug*

[gimmickusername]

Well, I'm just a fan and I was dissapointed that I learned virtually nothing about the concert from the fan's perspective.

Also, I don't know about your blog so I couldn't be expected to get that reference, I thought this was just for youtube..

Also, You *do* know how to be mysterious about things. Oh well, keep your secrets, I hope it's nothing bad.

-ciao

[gimmickusername]

What the hell, the this is weirdest video review of *anything* I've ever seen. Like 15% of this is about Deg and the other ??% is about things don't simply *not* concern the band or the music, but is mostly rambling.

I mean, also you made me extremely curious to why you didn't see the whole concert?

The most absurd moment is when you say "I saw Die" no not "Die", "Dai" from myspace..

I was like... =|

Anyway, Good Show!

[slushymermaid666]

When I talk, I never stay on any one topic. My apologies? O_o

Curious... Oh yeah, I don't care.

Yes, very absurd. Although it's very crazy that I do this stuff for blogging on my livejournal and those people know who Dai is.

[talibanana]

You are going to die alone

[slushymermaid666]

Aww, thank you; I was kinda hoping for that. *crosses fingers*

[istealstuff]

I want to see Dir en Grey really bad from your review. They are playing Family Values Tour but they arent going to be in NC. T_T

[lasenaga]

Aw that was a really good review. :)

XD the homeless thing made me laugh, same with Kyo with the bucket on his head.

If I get the chance, I'll DEFNITELY go.

[hfs991hfs]

Sounds pretty dumb.

[slushymermaid666]

Okay.

[ivyvalentine]

your cool!

[slushymermaid666]

I know. :B

[HYDEmonAMI]

Wow, you're really good at speaking! I could seriously imagine every single thing you spoke about :). Haha.. Chinese guy.... my school is basically 60% Asian (mostly Chinese) and 40% hispanic.. me included in chinese asian. There are few Chinese guys with piercings there.. eh, yeah. Good job!

[hongmao]

I think you did a fine job explaining the concert. 

[WarlordMisha]

heh...heh....sure ur not a fangirl.... if ur not a a fangirl I'm not a fangirl *biggest lie ever* :p nice review...it made me laugh ^_______^ do u gotta myspace?

[slushymermaid666]

I'm not a fangirl... In all seriousness.

I do but it doesn't matter cause I don't add people I dun already know, nothing personal.

[Kitora]

Yah so happy for them goignt ot come to Phoenx...

PS. Never told anyone but I have the soem B-Day as Kyo... heh

[amixchan]

Dude, I live in MO, so I didn't get to see them. BUT. They're coming to KC this summer, so YAY. UBER YAY. -fangirl spazz- And yeah, $10 tix make me even happier about it, because I'll actually be able to afford it! <3

[hongmao]

Actually only the lawn seats are only $10, when they go to Long Island the front row seats are $400. It depends on what city is hosting them though. ^^

[ymasisiht]

O gosh, great review. I went to the show, too! i didn't get there until much later, so i was way in the back. it was my first concert, and yeah, it was the most amazing night of my life. i was all crazy and screaming and crying bc i was so damn happy.

watching your review totally just put me back there. makes me oh so very happy... yay! i really want to see them again, and maybe i'll see you at a DeG concert sometime.

thanks for putting up your review, and rock on!

--a

[cherrychocobo]

YEAAAAAAHHHH!! Thanks for the review.. i wrote one on my site which is crappier & makes me sound like a complete fangirl but yah.. hehe DeG rules. BTW!!! i TOTALLY MISSED THE HOT CHINESE DUDE! o.o i didnt see him T____T but i DID think the miyavi-lookin dude sellin shirts was hot too xDD

[omfgiloveshinya]

good review, your lucky you got that close to the front. XD

[trugeminipnai]

...omg. you sound like my cousin after she went to the ny show. only alot calmer.

haha. good review.

[xDirxEnxGreyx]

Aww boohoo. I was going to go but...I still have parents. And of course, parents suck and they didn't want to get stuck in rush hour traffic. I envy you, and thank you for making this! At least next time they come to the US I'm not going to hesitate! And really, you saw Die? She is sooo pretty and dorky XP Anyways, great review thingy!

[Nitrogentears]

Thanks for the review, it was like being there all over again. I flew out from Florida just to see them. I was going to see them in Germany till the US tour came into view. It was amazing, I'm broke, but it was worth it.

I saw you on the bench! And! I did see the chinese dude - all over the place ^.~

Maybe I'll see ya at another dir en grey show in the future. In the meantime keep it cool.

[nemoranger]

By the way, this is shinome as well.

[nemoranger]

Hah, nah it wouldn't reject it.

There's been longer videos on here, so yah.

Lol.

I need to start making videos again~

Anyways, hopefully I'll catch you at the next concert.

[shinome]

I'm surprised I didn't see you there, but eh.

Anyways, the concert was amazing, I'm definatly going to the next one they have in the US.>_>;

And you could of added a bit more to the review, but that's okay.=3

[slushymermaid666]

Same here.

If I made it any longer, I bet the tube would reject it out of sheer mass of length. x_x

[BlueRaspberry]

Loved the concert. Greatest one I've ever been too. Your review was slightly off, but loved it! ^^; Total Love.

[slushymermaid666]

Please share my mistakes with me; as you can see, I leave stuff out and would like to remedy it.

[AreinaChan]

[healingvisions]

Great video review of the concert! I remember seeing you! I think I complemented your hair over in the parking structure after the show. Anyway, I wrote a mini review and it has a set list from someone who was taking notes during the concert. Check it out if you get the chance:

[slushymermaid666]

Thank you!

That link doesn't work for whatever reason. Just put down your profile link and I'll find the blog.

[MindlessManiac]

I saw you!!! i was with another girl and we were the youngest one's there. we were running down the block trying to find the end of the line. you are so lucky!! we got in the damn mezz seat. i wish i got to be in the mosh. it was my first concert and i hope to see them again too. ^^

[minikaosama]

love the review xD and i think they played the 3rd empire too. ah, the concert was so awesome. i hope they come back :)

[Kitora]

I'm so jealous... I couldn't go(plus by the time I got into them it was proboly(sp) too late) Does anyone know it there is to be one in AZ? I will make it easier to go see them.

Thanks for the review!!! Wish I was there!!(Not regreting)

[bekluvsdiru]

kyya! yup! They are touring with korn in the Family Values Tour! ^_^ In phoenix! IM GOING!! They dont know the exact dates for the cities, but it starts in virginia beach on july 27th....yea...so im exited for them to finally come to phoenix!! XD

pee ess:only costs $9.99!!!

[mindofxminus]

LOVE THE REVIEW!!! is it really that hard to breath in the pit??!! i plan on going into the pit next time they come to california and i need to know the precautions before i actually go into the pit. ^-^

the concert was SO FREAKING AWESOME!!! i bet it would be more AWESOMER IF I WAS IN THE PIT!!! [but i bet i would get squished because im such a small person >.<;]i was somewhere in the back of the theatre! X-X but i still got a good view of them! ^-^

[slushymermaid666]

If you're in the front, yeah, no breathing and no comfort. In the middle, if you get caught around squishy chubby people, you might be in the clear, but the front is where it's at, yo!

[kaotic]

hey! I was stading like right next to you.. well, there was this other girl in the middle... I was the one bitching a lot about the pushing... *lol* and the one screaming "Kaoru!!" like every 5 seconds. (bet that was annoying) *lol* loved the review! the whole 'Shinya just kind of walked back there' part was hilarious! It WAS kind of lame, *lol* and at the beginning where Kyo's like... 'Sama! me! me! *points at himself*' that was so funny! Wow! amazing concert!

[KyoNiimura]

wow like the way you descripe the whole thing ^^... i´m just getting more nervous seeing them again *jumps up and down* I really feel with you getting pushed so hard (just been there before almost one year ago in Berlin an Paris ^^;) but without that it would be no Diru live right? ^^

[kenajpn]

OHH HELL YEAH!!! I wish i could've gone ;_; haha. that was funny, "Woah Crazy american black chick talking to me whats going on??" haha. i know peolple say that about me.

[lizshadow28]

I saw you too! I was standing like two girls away from you on the right. I'm so sore and tired but *o* all was great!

[BatmanDiru]

i totally saw u at the show!!! it was great wasnt it?
