psychonnect_rozen got a reaction from plastic_rainbow in Show Yourself (again)
My first attempt a Visual Kei. My mom did my makeup since I suck ass at it but it's good I guess😛

a bandman from a fairly noteworthy late 2000's band that will be left unnamed here wanted to fuck my ex girlfriend. vk guys are great if you have some cash for chrome hearts and/or a vagina
I can't be mad at kyo for not giving a shit about some stupid Q&A the management set up for some cash and anyone who pays for those VIP's is a dweeb that doesn' deserve look in their general direction ya fucking nerds. i can't even imagine how it is like when everyone wants to talk to you while all you want is just to eat some shitty fast food in the tour bus and sleep.

1.I've always had the feeling that they don't have much of a choice, when Tommy says jump, they say how high.
2. I think bands do like to see fans showed up and actively engaged in the show, but they don't owe them a thing.
3.Artists really should have a say, but majority are at the mercy of management.
4.I have not.
5.Absolutely, Fans asking MIYAVI to marry them while others tried to explain that he was married. This was not long after he and his wife got married and had their first daughter.

I grew up loving DIR EN GREY, but as a fan for 15 years, I've learned that they generally don't care about fans, they're a band of introverts for the most part and the music is for them, the fans liking it is a coincidence. I would never fuck with any big band, so no VIP stuff, no photos and nothing of the sort because these bigger bands generally just see you as another face in the crowd. Only with smaller bands will fans really be appreciated. I mean let's be honest here, touring, performing and traveling across the world is a pain in the ass and yes, it's awesome when bands come overseas, but you can't blame them for being hesitant. All I hope is that they get to enjoy themselves and find a little down time for a mini-vacation if you will like when bands go to Asia.
Note: To clarify, I am only saying that DIR EN GREY have this attitude towards making music, Kyo has said ad infinitum that that is the case.

01. Not really. If you dread meeting your fans, then don’t. Don’t offer meet and greet packages or at least offer them specifically with the members who are interested so people still have the choice to greet a part of the group.
02. They shouldn’t have to specifically thank their individual fans, usually their behaviour tells you how grateful they are.
03. Definitely not. Music is first and foremost for yourself and any fans are a gift, I would say.
04. List of Japanese artists I’ve met: Kamijo, Kaya, Yoshiki, Satsuki + support band, Megaromania, NEGA, D, Black Line, BLOOD, Jupiter. All these artists were very generous towards their fans (perhaps with the exception of Kiwamu). Some may perceive these interactions as ‘awkward’ because of a language barrier (this I had especially with D, the first Japanese artists I’ve met, and I mumbled some unintelligible what-I-thought-was-Japanese to them, which was received with confused looks), another thing can be that the musicians stay in their role and for instance don’t talk or seem distant – I haven’t experienced this a lot except for with Kamijo, who is just... himself. I think Yoshiki was the most grateful and open toward meeting people; he even shushed security when they wanted to remove him from the fans because he wanted to make sure everyone had the opportunity to at least shake his hand.
05. There are always horrible people at lives. I’ve experienced hair pulling, scratching, kicking, etc. There are always the terrible squirmish girls around who act as if they are seeing literal gods, girls who completely break down or girls who are simply so fervent in their fanatic ways that they get aggressive with the artists (here in the Netherlands, Hizaki’s dress was ripped for example. I’ve heard about Mana’s clothes being torn too.)

Megaromania was the very first vk band I got into! Definitely recommended for newcomers like yourself! Prophetic Faction is an amazing album 💕

psychonnect_rozen got a reaction from Gesu in Favourite fashion styles of Kei?
I will always love Kote Kei. It looks amazing older Visual Kei bands, mainly La Mule and 90s Dir En Grey
I’s also go with Oshare Kei or as I like to call it, “Bubblegum Kei” or “Candy Kei”. I know a lot of people aren’t a fan, but I love the bright, cutesy colors. Sick2 looks amazing like this.
Lolita Kei is sexy asf. I love the astheitics and the more older style of uniforms. Bands like Megaromania (I think) and Versailles are some good examples.

Night out in Tokyo with Takeru (SuG). He seems pretty kinky so hopefully he'd show me some cool bdsm clubs in town before I promptly ditched him for some hot mistress.

The weirdest ones I can think of on the top of my head is that tanuki thinks Gara (MERRY) is a germaphobe, Hizaki supposedly throws hissy fits, and Kyo's name supposedly being "Tooru". x)
Plus Kisaki having tons of STDs but given the things that's been uncovered, well.........🤷♀️

Kyan from Golden Bomber. We can go eat, and then after that we'll go eat, and later on we'll go eat.

Needless to say, I'd choose Takeru from CLACK inc., I think we'd spend the day at home watching movies and nerding out (he went to film school and he's a huge movie and anime nerd). I would also love to go to karaoke with him as I love singing (and he's a vocalist obviously so).
For something a bit out of the ordinary, I'd like to explore a haunted location with him cause we're both into this shit lol

psychonnect_rozen reacted to Triangle in Your given the choice to hang out with any band member of any band for a day. Who would it be and what will you do?
Oh god this is where my fangirl fantasies unleash but, I would totally hang out with Yukke (after I mentally prepare myself and hyperventilate the whole day). We'd go out and have brunch at a cute cafe and eat pancakes. Then go in Nakano to look at wigs and old anime figurines. And then go into a karaoke and just sing v-kei and k-pop until we run out of breath. And maybe go to a Korean bbq place together and just gossip and get drunk over soju. That's it. I would be a happy woman for the rest of my life after.

psychonnect_rozen got a reaction from ghost in Album that you love but fans hate?
Macabre by Dir En Grey takes the pick.
Ask any Diru fan and they’ll say Macabre is their worst. I actually hated this album at first, but have grown to love it (To be fair, I like every Diru album so...lol).
It’s such a diverse album compared to Gauze and was even surprised that a lot of people don’t like it. It’s a lot more heavier and experimental, although I do think it’s hard for newer fans to get into.
