Late update cos I cannot with the announcement of CLear's disbandment, but here is their set list from the other night:
 
2017.6.2@Shinjuku club science
Set list
1.夢ノカケラ  (Yume no kakera)
2.Dearest
3.Dizzling Dance
4.妄想クローゼット (Mousou closet)
5.夢うつつ (Yume utsutsu)
 

 
They seemed kind of out of it at first, but picked themselves up by the end of the first song so I kind of just dismissed it. When they didn't announce anything big during the MC I was kinda worried since they tweeted earlier that they'd have an announcement that night, but I kind of just dismissed that worry too. They had really good energy during the rest of the live and it was a really fun set! Dizzling Dance is definitely one of my favorite songs from them! And it seemed like a lot of people were getting into it so I was really happy!
 
After their set when I went to buppan, Ryota asked if I had fun and I replied really enthusiastically that I did, and he had a really bittersweet smile like "yay I'm glad you had so much fun, but I'm sorry to disappoint you" kind of expression and I knew for sure they would announce disbandment. Kai was pretty out of it after the live too T_T
 
But I still wasn't ready for it when they posted the official disbandment notice. T_T
 
I'm still pretty devastated about it. Been moping around all day and could barely function at work T_T
To be perfectly honest, I'm a bit surprised at just how hard I'm taking this, but I could go on and on about it so instead, here's some pic spam from the other night lol
 






 
 
Before the live, Ryota made Kai try cilantro for the first time lol
Kai buying cilantro yakisoba:

 
Kai posted this after and said he didn't like it lol He said it tasted like how he imaged bugs would taste lol

 
 
Fuck. I'm really gonna fucking miss these guys T_T <3

Atleast we get a final release

They look wonderful <3

New band "CLACK inc." has formed and they will hold their first live at Osaka FANJ on 2017/07/29.
 
Their vocalist is 武翔(takeru) (ex-EVE). No idea if this is his solo project or a full band with 4 unannounced members.
 

 
 
 
Didn't think takeru would return after EVE disbanded, I'm so excited @___@ Wonder if they will be under Kerberos Records since he was bandmates with Keita  

I haven't updated in a while T_T But here's a clip of Tra playing DOUBT! 
 
 
They finished the Like an Edison Tokyo-Osaka-Nagoya tour and have hopefully gained more fans! They have their third one-man coming up on June 25th back at Denatsu. Hopefully it'll be fuller than their first one-man was!!
 
If anyone is in Tokyo in June you should definitely check them out! They're definitely a band that's worth seeing live
Tickets can be purchased on eplus!
 

I will once I listen to it!!!!! Sioux and SHeepSLeep were on backorder so they literally just shipped my order today. Hopefully I'll get everything next week

Purple Stone will hold their fanmeeting/Fuma-sai at Kitahorie hills Pan-koujou on 6/28!!
 
Tickets sold out immediately when sales started but some people cancelled so you still can get them (but be quick)

It was a much heavier set list than usual, probably cos of the bands they were playing with, and it was a lot of fun!! I was really glad I got to hear Dizzling Dance and Chocolate Cake live again!! Chocolate Cake's furi was kinda hard to remember lol but it was a lot of fun! <3333 The saizen weren't the regular saizen I think... no one really knew the furi lol, but it seemed like a lot of people were joining in! Also, Kaz (ex-Fenix) was their support bassist tonight! I think I like him more than their usual support, but oh well lol

The members also went around to Like an Edison and Jishubanclub to distribute their flyers before the live tonight <3 (idk why Kaz is there instead of Wataru and/or Tsukimi lolol)

Here's their setlist from tonight's live at Shibuya REX!

 

 
For some reason 自分定義 made me cry like a fucking baby and I couldn't get my shit together for pretty much the rest of their set, but whatever. I love them. It was like during that song all my thoughts and feelings about the band surfaced and it felt like my heart was leaping out of my chest. Not to be over-dramatic, but I'm a little over-dramatic <3
 
I was pretty much smiling through tears and jumping around for the next two songs haha
 
Even if it's not with Dangan, I really hope everyone can feel the intensity towards a band that I feel for Dangan. Like, I'm pretty sure I used to make fun of/not understand people who cried at lives and over songs/bands/bandmen w/e but like. Fuck. Go fall in love with a band so you can understand <3 
Okay sorry, just rambling now. On to the picspam!
 
 

omg so apparently I forgot to post this. LOLOL 
 
so here's my spazz report for dangan's  one-man at O-West!
 
I still can't believe they're disbanding T__________________T I saw them again tonight and well, before I get into that, read about their one-man! <3 
(I had this written for a long-ass time and just forgot to post it and I'm not about to go through and change the tenses from "tonight" to "that night" and w/e so just deal with it <3)
 
I really fell in love with this entire band after tonight. Their songs are all incredibly fun live and their furi isn't complicated at all so you don't really have to stress about it haha <3
Like, before I liked their music and the band, but after the one-man, I definitely fell in love with them. All of them. As people and as a band, like. I just love them so much <3
 
From the very first song they had really great energy! I fucking love those first three songs SO MUCH so it was super easy for me to get into it too. LEO'S GUITAR PLAYING IS SO SEXY I CANNOT <3 His fucking solos and riffs are so damn good <333

Before Isutori GAME started, a big screen came down in the back. They played this blue spiraling ish video thing when the song started. Kinda something like this effect?

 
And they played diff clips for the next few songs after that. I didn't really notice the clips too much tbh cos I was focusing on the guys, but during Tick-Tack they definitely had like clocks/clock gears going on in the bg so I'm pretty sure that song is supposed to be Tick-Tock, but w/e haha <3
 
Tick-Tack into Envy worked really well I think! Also, I really really really really really really like Envy. Like I think it might be one of my favorite songs haha <3 I think it just has a beat that I super love and it's catchy af.
 
I love how that in Dangan songs you don't lose the rest of the instruments during guitar solos. Like I feel in a lot of bands for the guitar solo it's all you can hear, which makes sense, but I kind of like that it's not always super overpowering in Dangan songs if that makes sense. Idk. Haha
 
Okay Bullet. I FUCKING LOVE THIS SONG. Like from the first few seconds of the intro, to the guitar solo, to the whole fucking thing. It's great. <3333333 And live is even better <333333 Their energy tonight was seriously amazing! I was literally in the back of that live house, maybe second to last row? Third to last row? Or something, but it felt like I was right up front <3
 
And Damni it!! Is so damn fun!!! Okay, I know I'm getting repetitive
 
I really like Beginning. I didn't know the song before the live cos I wasn't able to buy the regular CD of BULLET cos they were sold out everywhere haha but it's a really nice song! I really like all the songs on the BULLET single <333
 
The last resort has so much moshing! <333 It was really fun except for that the girls next to me had all their shit on the floor and weren't moshing and I didn't realize they weren't gonna move until I was like being shoved into them and had nowhere to go haha Dangan's energy during this song is AMAZINGGG like literally Miyuu running back and forth sometimes between kamite and shimote to direct us haha
 
They ended the set with sono uso hontou. SO. PERFECT. I fucking love this song. And not just cos this is the song that Miyuu threw his towel at me way back when haha It's definitely one of my favorite songs from them!! <33333 And it's just so much fun live!!! I wish everyone could experience it!! And Miyuu's face when he sings it! I fucking love him! Haha <333333333
 
 
Okay random MC moments that I remember:
 
Before they started playing the encore Leo said he wanted to say a few words. I don't know if I understood correctly, but I think he was saying that he had hung his costume up outside to dry or w/e and the wind blew it down and he couldn't find the inner shirt that he wears under the jacket thing. He even walked around looking for it but couldn't find it so he wore a different shirt thing (I think??), but it wasn't working out so well. Like he was going to hard during the live and like his chest was revealed a lot or something? And like turned black from the other shirt he was wearing So he just wanted to apologize for that LOL well he wanted to apologize for some kind of wardrobe mishap I think. And for the encore they had changed into the new shirts they're selling (that sold out before I could get one T_T) and he said that his body was all black now for some reason. Because of the shirt he was wearing instead of the one he lost? Or something? I couldn't really understand that part lol but Miyuu was laughing at him haha I think he wanted to tell us that his chest was black from the shirt, not cos he has a super hairy chest loolol
 
After that Miyuu had them each say a few words. Yusuke started. He was saying how 2/18 was an important day for Dangan, but also a very important for his dog, Sakura. LOL. He said his parents sent him a line message like "good luck at your live! Btw it's Sakura's bday!" and sent him a picture of the dog <3333 So he was like "please keep her in your thoughts! It's a very important day for her!!" and Miyuu's face was kinda like "wtf??? Why are you talking about your dog??" hahaha apparently they've all met her too (except for Chika cos he has an animal fur allergy, but he's seen pics and thinks Sakura is cute lol) I think she turned 12? It was a pretty old age for a dog haha Yusuke looked so happy talking about her! lolol
 
Chika was saying how he's been super messed up the past three days cos he was so nervous haha and he started talking about his mom. Apparently he calls her Kazumi lolol He's so cute! And like she asked him something like "Oh, you're playing at Tsutaya?" (Tsutaya is the name of a dvd/cd rental shop) and Chika was telling us like technically she wasn't wrong?? Since the live was at tsutaya o-west, but like explaining the difference to her was too troublesome so he was just like "yeah" LOLOL And Yusuke was like "wait so she thinks we're playing at DVD rental shop??" And he was like "yeah probably" hahaha and then he said his mom was like "which tsutaya" and he was like "shibuya" LOLOL and Yusuke or Miyuu (I forget who) was like wait, so if she had wanted to come see us tonight, she'd just be wandering around that Tsutaya? (referring to the huge Tsutaya across from Shibuya station) lolol and Chika was just like… yeah probably? LOL And he ended this story by saying that he had been practicing for three days to relay this story to us LOL he's adorable!!! <3333333
 
Next up was Leo. Apparently he gets super nervous too. Miyuu was laughing at him cos apparently his legs were shaking when he did the MC for their first one-man and Yusuke added that Leo had said that he's the most nervous for MCs haha <333 Leo was super awkward like… he would start to say something have a long pause and be like "uh yeah" and then keep going haha. He was mostly just saying how he really, really wants to make cool songs so it was like "I want to make cool songs…………………………yup………I wanna make cool songs……………………….yeah…………." haha oh but he did say like his favorite moment is when a song comes together. Like he composes it, Miyuu adds the lyrics and they add Yusuke's drums and Chika's bass and that moment that it all comes together is the best <333
 
Miyuu choked up, talked about how he wanted to quit at some point but the members convinced him otherwise and he's really glad they were there for him. Him and Leo mentioned countless times how they want to make it with these four members <3333 They're so determined! Miyuu was so happy and appreciative for the fans too
 
 
Miyuu was so touched at the end after they played the encore songs. he was crying and tried to hand the mic off to Yusuke, but Yusuke just kinda put his hands in the air like "don't had that to me, YOU talk!" so he kinda moped over to Leo who just kinda patted him on the shoulder/back like "you can do it!" haha Finally he was like "this is such a wonderful scene" referring to the fans and said it was so good that he wanted to take a picture. He said that they had never taken a picture at a one-man before, but that it was such a great view that not taking a picture would be a waste. He asked if it was okay to take a picture in such a sweet way too like, he was half crying and like "is it okay to take a picture? Just one? Please??" kind of feeling. <3333333333333333333333333 I love Miyuu so much!
 
 
Anyway, I really love this band and I'm pretty fucking devastated that they are disbanding T_T I'm glad I didn't get into them too late and I hope they come back soon T___T I hope people continue to love them!!!!

For anyone who still cares, Masashi made a nico nico douga account and posted a cover of "Walking in the Center of the World" tonight <3
 
http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm31115601
 
He said his updates might be sporadic, but he'll try to post so please continue to support him!
Also, he's changed his twitter account name cos he said he doesn't wanna be called Masashi anymore lol in a twitcast he asked everyone what name he should use and everyone pretty much said Piya. Pi-ya? I'm not sure how to romanize it haha, but it's ぴーや <3

I will literally never stop loving him T_T
