One week till the release day, I'm getting impatient and I pray for no customs ;o

His voice was mostly fine during the latest tour... tonsillitis is caused by viral infection or bacteria, so they way he sings is not really a reason for his state now. My biggest worry is to infection to not spread to his ears, he had enough problems with that Anyway OHP and FB were updated with the official statement: I hope he will recover soon without any problems!

I can give you full translation of the cause of all the reports. Original here: http://022.holidayblog.jp/?p=6300 Translation done by me, if you see any mistakes, feel free to point them out ^ ^'

Yes, that's the problem with the sound, the right and left channel are switched. Menzo, when ordering through a knot that dvd costs 7940 yen, so 15.000 seems bit steep... but after all it is a fanclub limited release So I can see why it's so expensive outside of a knot XP

If you have a contact person in Japan, for 15.000 yen you can actually join a knot and order it yourself XP Also for anyone that might be interested in getting one, if buying second hand be sure to double check with the seller if disc1 is fine or was replaced, as there was a problem with the sound on disc1. And a knot asked people to send disc1 back. If that was not done, it will be impossible to exchange it if you're not a fanclub member.

I love B'z, especially the early works of the super duo!! I wish I can see them live someday! And I totally missed that Gackt released that song XD With YFC I stopped following him at all... But this song sounds like... most of Gackt songs XD 1. deadman - 盲目の羽根と星を手に (moumoku no hane to hoshi wo te ni) 2. SOAD - needles 3. DIR EN GREY - DOZING GREEN 4. BUCK-TICK - Brand New Lover Live Ver. 5. DIR EN GREY - 凱歌、沈黙が眠る頃 (gaika, chinmoku ga nemuru koro) 6. Donto - Jin Jin 7. Piotr Rogucki - Piegi w locie 8. Maximum the Hormone - Kyokatsu 9. D'espairsRay - Squall 10. The National Center for Korean Traditional Performing Arts - Ch`wit`a court music It was hard to chose favorite from those, but Piegi w locie is some amazing piece of Polish rock ^ ^

I really care about the lyrics and what the song is about. If I don't like the message of the song I will not listen to it again... Vocal and lyrics are equally important to me as other parts of music, like guitars or drums. There is a reason vocalists don't simply go 'lalalala' and they try to convey some message. If they have nothing to say, then, well, why should I listen to them? And for me this is about music in any language. If I don't know the language I will try to look up translation over net, in this age it's not difficult. Not caring about the lyrics can lead to many ridiculous situations, with my best example I witnessed being Cee Lo Green's "F**k you" being dedicated to someone during the wedding... It is such a lovely song, isn't it? XD

I'm definitely going to order both, so happy that they will include whole last live!

＾I'm guessing they will play MACARBRE at the special live at Shibuya Koukaidou on 5/24

There's a message from the band regarding the European tour: http://youtu.be/AMs_ImhZBLY Haha, they are very straightforward with what kind of presents they would like to receive! Alcohol!! Let's see if they can really handle it!! XD

http://kyo-official.jp/top.html#information https://twitter.com/kyo_official/ Kyo's official website was launched just after the end of live at Tokyo Dome. There's announcement about the release of a photobook titled 『失格/disqualification』『for the human race』 I hope we get to hear more news soon!!!!

I keep wandering that too, just got a bus from Cologne to Paris, if they do anything on 12th that is not in Cologne I will be very very sad XD

Got tickets for both shows!! So happy! And fnac do have paper tickets, which didn't show up earlier, if anyone's interested Now travel planning! XD

But fnactickets that sells Paris tickets lists it at 28.60 euro? They only do electronic tickets, did you happen to find other shop that sells normal paper tickets by any chance?

Seems there was mistake in the first announcement about the dates in Germany and France, the dates got swapped OHP has a fix information now and new magazines are also listing Cologne on 11th and Paris on 13th.

wsp, sorry I have sold Vulgar ^ ^`

sai, please let me know if you're still interested in darker than darkness album as I have another person interested. I will hold it for you till tomorrow 7pm (UK time).

I attended this one and it was really great! But it felt quite funny, like it wasn't England, as it seemed that 95% of audience was Japanese

Yes, so Deathgaze will be a well deserved treat afterwards XP And Underworld is tiny so I don't really care if I'm at the front or not

sai, don't worry as long as you have a bank card it's actually quite easy So I will put darker than darkness on hold for you And please let me know your paypal address when you have it and where the shipping will be to

wsp, do you mean you might be interested in the second half of April? I don't really want to put it on hold for that long, but will let you know if it's still available in two weeks

Waaah, I missed the point that JLPT is held on the same day XD Well, at least its close and there's no speaking exam so we can wear whatever we want XP
