caught on DVD when couldn't remember the lyrics and desperately looking for the tele-prompter! (3:30 mark)
 
Should be referencing "この雨に撃たれて" in that live. Shuuji's vocals came in at a abrupt timing too but the entire band manage to run the song to its end with no other hiccups.
 
He reiterated his love for Dr Pepper again last night:
 
You saw XA-VAT in that live too! Cool!
 
Oh and the band just announced a new youtube channel for some reason:

Maybe its for further live streams.....?

Set list of the just ended concert stream:
 
Great to see "walking, running, flying" and "midnight, midnight", songs not heard since 2013, in the set.
 
There'll be another live stream on 7th Jul; no details on what's the content though.

They need to earn some moolah yo~ If I'm not wrong, youtube does not have a ticketing system and the donation system will not work well for them IMO, if even Dir en grey's recent live streaming concert yields only an OK-ish amount as compared to what a real gig can yield.
 
BTW, I checked with my agent; the eplus account is linked to a Japanese phone number (to prevent scalping) and you can only pay for the gig via a Japanese credit card.
 
Nah, they won't put that collab song for digital sale; need to make concert goers thirsty & queue for it and then go "since I already queued for so long, might as well add a T-shirt and a pillow with Shuuji's face on it for 8000yen. Oh wait, if I spend 10000yen, I'll get a free sticker???? Add that '14' album that I already have!!!!"

cali≠gari is live streaming a 'no audience' gig on 7th Jun (this Sunday) via eplus's streaming platform.
 
You need a Japanese credit card and phone number to be able to register to the service, from what I gathered. Do correct me if I'm wrong. 
 
 
In other news (?). I finally got the BL manga that Ao collaborated in and created a song (& sang the vocals) for:
 
Download code for the song still works, 2 years after its initial release!

See you guys there! (After figuring out how this platform works....)
 
 

Based on the recent dir en grey livestreams where people from various countries donating in their country's currency, I reckon yeah, anyone can donate.

I'll just leave this here, fresh from my country today:

Basically the newspaper published a less than flattering article on some kpop stars and the fans are trying to boycott the newspapers and get the writer fired.

I have no information on this but I believe the band themselves have no idea what to reward for attending all 6 concerts so 9 months later, they haphazardly remixed "不均衡キネマ" (a song that they heavily pushed back in 2011), slapped the 5 remixes onto a cassette tape ("its retro cos its old technology so it fits our retrock image!!!!") and called it a day. Definitely not demos IMO.
 
By the way, the date found on the cassette tape is the same date as "MERRY 【collector】Tour EXTRA～謎の日～＠恵比寿LIQUID ROOM" which the attendee in the blog that @crossparallel cited so ya, you got to attend 6 concerts to collect the stubs in Nov 2011 and then pay to attend that 1 gig in Aug 2012 to get that mystery gift WTF

So I was cleaning my storeroom earlier when I realized wtf, I have the mystery cassette tape!
 
 https://ibb.co/pffxcDn
 
Taken with monochrome heaven website as the background for authenticity haha. Should be given to me when I met my friend in her country years ago.
 
https://ibb.co/rys6F8Z
 
Now you have a release date to tag the mp3 folder!
 
https://ibb.co/Y0KVJbQ
 
Signed postcard by all members for ordering the 6 DVD box set.
 
https://ibb.co/94rRmZm
 
The box set itself is a thing of beauty; the individual album art can be found behind each DVD.
 
Sorry for the edits; I kept finding merry related items ha. And yes, I have yet to figure out how to post photos in my posts, sigh
 
I bought a ticket for the tour final with kenchi but looking at the situation, it's most likely postponed/cancelled. Oh well.

Its the same cassette tape; in the blog entry you linked, the writer stated that she used a 'mystery card' in exchange for the cassette tape. If I remember correctly (from what my friend told me, cos I was unable attend the last day), on the last day of the 6 day gig, there's a special counter for you to change your 6 ticket stubs for this 'mystery card' and what this mystery card is for will be revealed in future. I suppose this "[collector] Tour Extra ~Mystery Day~" (and maybe other gigs during the period?) is where you exchange the mystery card for. Basically forcing you to attend ANOTHER gig on top of the 6 you already attended but its MERRY so whatever hahahaha 
 
However, there is one more cassette tape that was released; the demo version of "SIGHT GLASS"; it can be seen here:

Its a gift that you get when you submit ticket stubs from all 6 different gigs of "10th Anniversary NEW LEGEND OF HIGH COLOUR" (each day where the band will play all the songs from 1 specific album) in 2011. There are 2 versions; 1 with the cover in red & the other in black. There is no difference in the content though.
 
I attended the 1st 5 days and passed the stubs to a friend who attended the 5th & 6th day, after which she used to exchange for the cassette tape then
