Set list from their first one-man last night!! I will never understand why people stand in the back at a freaking ONEMAN, but whatever. I had a great time! For Shangri-la we did the circle mosh and Ryo was trying soooo hard to get the people in the back involved but they were having none of it. lol at one point the shikiri just ran straight at someone in the back to get them involved (I think they were friends though? lol) but yeah despite those people, it was great ^^ And Mamoto was there! And other bandmen I didn't recognize cos I suck at recognizing people! lolol
 
Overall, the guys all looked really pleased with themselves. Ryo was all smiles. Hiroki's drum flashed when he hit the snares lol. Omi's face was LITERALLY in my face. He needs to not lean over the bear so far haha Other than Ryo dropping the mic mid song (lol) and not being able to find the mic when he came back on for the encore, it went down without a hitch. ^^ So proud of these guys!! They said thanks about 230947340873 times. It seems like this band is really important to all of them. Hiroki mentioned that Tra3 is the first band he's been a part of since the beginning. Ryo and Omi both said that last night was their first one-man EVER (I forget if Hiroki said if it was his first one-man or not as well. My friend said he did though lol). For Ryo it was doubly special since the one-man was actually ON his birthday. It was a night of "firsts" for everyone  I don't think I've ever had so much fun at a live before!! *can't stop smiling*

As promised!!

Heya! =) 

So what are your favorite songs by them? I pretty much like all of their songs, but If I could make a top 5 it would goes like this : Hiai to Melancholy, Sword, Fantasia, Shinkirou and hmmm Burning Soul? =D or Nemureru Yomu. I bought their Gloria dvd just to hear Sword live lol, and I own their Emergence from cocoon dvd, they're awesome live!

Okay, sorry I'm posting here a lot guys T_T I just really love this band.... I'll work on translating Ryo's and Omi's most recent blogs next!
 
Also, apparently TRA TRA TRA will have another announcement tonight (different from the announcement Hiroki is talking about in this blog entry) at midnight (JST).. in like 15 mins... (〇ョ〇)

Hello.
 
I’m the “Red Mop,” Hiroki lol
 
First of all, yesterday we played in the “Jet Black Symphony” event at Shinjuku BLAZE!  Thanks to everyone that came! How was it seeing TRA TRA TRA on a big stage? I had a blast. It was a cool scene! These kinds of festival-type events are great. I hope we can take part in it again next year.
 

 
 
Seems like Obon season is already over
 
Is everyone having fun?
Did you already have fun?
 
I’ve been having a pretty good amount of fun.
 
I went to the beach, to the mountains, played some gigs.. I’ve been able to have a
pretty fulfilling summer. 
 

 
This is the beach I just went to. Whoever knows where this is is amazing! lol
 
I always want to travel year-round so I really love going to the beach in the summer. I just don’t really like beaches that have a lot of people. I love swimming in a beautiful ocean with no people in sight.
 
I love swimming in this kind of place 
 
I wanna make a video with all the TRA TRA TRA members swimming at the beach! Oh, but there’s someone who can’t swim at all… lol
 
 
There aren’t anymore gigs in August so for now I’m gonna put all my excitement and energy towards our 9/25 one-man!  Since it’s our first one-man, I definitely want to make it a success. I can’t help but feel really excited Start saving up your energy for it!
 
 
Alrighty, that’s about it for now
 
till next time!
 
 
PS. There’s gonna be a really happy announcement soon
 
 
HIROKI
 
 
Next time: Ryo

Omg guys. Hiroki is killing me right now
 
So this all started with the (◯ョ◯) face when Hiroki mentioned Ryo losing his phone in one of his tweets a while ago. I think originally it was just ◯ョ◯ to stand for リョウ. ("Ryo" in katakana).. Like how they block out some parts of the name so you don't know it is even though it was obviously Ryo. Then he starts trolling Ryo with the face and Ryo was like wtf does that even mean??? Lolol so Hiroki was like (◯ョ◯) ＝ リョウ  and started just using it randomly in a lot of tweets. He even posted instructions on how to add it to your keyboard so that it comes up as an option when you type in りょう lol. 
 
Today Omi posted a guitar cam video and was like "the other three look like they're having fun talking amongst themselves behind me during my guitar solo!! I wanna be a part of that!!" Or something along those lines. Hiroki replies with:
(Basically just typing "omiomiomiomi" a bunch of times)
 
Followed by:
(Omi mio)
Then:
Making faces out of each of their names in turn by removing the first and last moji of their names. 
 
And then finally he tweeted the big list Lolol 
 
personally, I think (◯ョ◯) and (◯ロ◯) are the most useable. I've already put them all into my key oard's dictionary though Lolol (◯ョ◯)(◯ョ◯)

COOOOOOOl! YAY FOR KAMIKAZE :D. But haha, no prob for the report lol. Just telling what songs they played would be just enough for me  and also thanks for the disco! I'll make sure to check it out! But I think you already sent me what I was missing.

@Alsdead14no problem! I'm glad you enjoyed it! ^^ of course I'm going to their first one man!! I'm leaving work early just to make it in time! LOL I'm also going to the 2nd one!! And okay I'll try to make a live report... my live reports suck though. It's usually like "THEY PLAYED SONGS AND IT WAS AWESOME" haahaha I'm gonna go see them on the 16th so I should be able to get KAMIKAZE when I go!! :DD

Omg that picture lol. Thanks for the translation! I'm very happy to now the meaning of TRA TRA TRA. Also, nice interview, I wish I could see their first one-man, I really like their music, oh well =) You'll go, right? If possible, make a report! That would be AWESOME! And now, I really want to hear KAMIKAZE, just how they describe it, omg lol, I'm dying inside. Thanks again!  

Well, nothing really new but this is still good nontheless.

Altighy then. I'm following this thread so I'll know when they will announce one or any pvs/mvs

I'm surprised (and  somehow not so surprised) that most songs are from their indies days lol there's great choices on the list! Sono seemed surprised to see Kaze No Tori, it's such an old song. 
Also,  my pick (#5) made it on the list, wehh ! ♫

Finally got my hands on this!
 

 
Working on translating it now  

Whenever I feel like taking a Lulsy piss at you for trying to take a lulsy piss at others who already have come to a consensus that this is just what a typical album from certain bands is (especially when you take into the account what they've consistently been doing since signing to this label)...i suppose showing this is enough as well. We get it and as much as it may grate your nerves, we like it.  Go complain somewhere else.

TRA TRA TRA live-distributed single "KAMIKAZE" will be released at their live since Shinjuku BLAZE at 2016/08/17
 

OMG. If you ever rip that dvd, I would be eternally thankful to you lol. All of my favorite songs were played during those 3 lives, the set-list is badass.

Yeah Inazuma was badass, loved that single. I also enjoy their days as Dice & Joker (I own the album). Always loved the moto they put at the beginning of their career : Mental disorder to be the basis or something like that. I swear that their songs always helped me in life, and will always. 

Rentrer en soi has a lot of good songs. Their best-of album contains most of them! If you ever want to re-listen to them, I can always suggest some songs.

What about 9GOATSBLACKOUT? The song 690min is purely amazing lolz. Anyway, we can chat in inbox if you prefer =O.

Yeah I have it! I can try ripping it for you when I find it! I just moved recently so everything's in boxes still haha
 
Omg Inazuma! that's also up there for me haha. and they are ALL epic live!!
 
Yeah I've heard of Rentrer en soi. I don't think I ever got super into them though. I think I was too obsessed with Gazette at the time haha

They're so good live!!! I hope they're back by the time you come to Japan!! 
 
I bought the limited edition DVD for the last few lives they did before hiatus... is that different than the live-limited DVD?
 
Favorite song is... difficult to say.. so many!! haha. hmm.. top five (in no particular order) are maybe KILL THE KING, STARLESS, D.9.N, FLASH BACK, and Peggy-O.... but I also love Life of Sorrow, Cynical and Adrenaline... yeahh.. lol How about you?
 
Just looked up Para:noir and D.I.D. They basically have the same sound... which makes sense if it's mostly the same members haha. I'm loving the bass in Para:noir's Merciless sorrow! Not really the vocals that I'm usually into, but they sound pretty good ^^
 
Wow I was really surprised when I looked up Galneryus! His English sounds so good! haha I'm liking what I hear so far!

aww that's too bad. I hope you can see them whenever they get off of hiatus!!
 
and yeah, I saw them a bunch haha. Especially right before they went on hiatus cos they had so many one mans. I even skipped work for one of them haha
 
sweet! thanks for the recommendations! I'll check them out!

Hey! Since I stumble upon your lyrics of ALSDEAD, I thought I might welcome you to the forum as well!

I also like Deluhi, the GazettE and of course ALSDEAD.

I have many bands to suggest, lately I've been into Para:noir (now it's D.I.D.)

If you like power metal, you can try Galneryus. 

There's also THE BLACK SWAN which is nice, if you ever listened to Nega.

Feel free to ask for other bands! And have a great time here!

Alsdead is one of my favorite bands too!! I really hope they come back from hiatus soon ><
I would like to eventually translate all of their songs, but it's a slow process haha. I'll try to do Trickster next!
