plz_dont_kill_me 0 Posted June 8, 2011 I don't want to cause a stir with anyone, but I'd like to leave this here for the folks who're going to the shows on the Paradox of Retaliation tour. It's true that Dir en grey has headed in directions that are quite distant from what they were and did in the past and they're trying very hard to not be stereotyped as pretty boy Visual Kei and just be "normal rock guys", but wouldn't it still be nice if they'd throw out some "not necessarily VK" oldies when they did their shows and not just when it's their shows in Japan? I received a random message on Myspace about this idea from another Diru fan, I honestly gave it thought, as I also miss the older songs and would enjoy being able to experience them live and in person. The idea was to have sorta "print-out-sheets" with some old Dir song titles in both Japanese and Romaji/English and print these out and attach them to a piece of cardboard or posterboard and bring them to hold up briefly as the band takes the stage, just long enough for them to look out and see them and then put them down so as not to hinder the experience for other fans when the band starts playing. I understand that doing something like this isn't going to magically make them play the song right then and there, I'm aware that it's highly unlikely for a band to play something they haven't already rehearsed and planned, but atleast doing this would get it into their head that it's okay to play these songs and that doing so wouldn't hurt their credibility with their more metal-minded fans. And even if they don't care, well... it's still trying something, right? So anyway, here are the print-outs. They're fitted for 8x11 paper and meant to be printed in black ink with the "scale to paper size" setting turned on. If you want to do something extra, you could find some luminescent printer paper to print on. I know of several places that have such paper for fairly cheap. Please don't ask for print-outs with Garden, or Jealous, or I'll or Taiyo no Ao or something else deliberately poppy-sounding that you're only putting out there as some kind of joke to troll the band. I'm not the one who made these and besides, what's here is still good and would not clash with the band's current image. If you think this is a good idea, pass it around to other fans... If not, then I'm sorry for bothering all of you. http://www.fileden.com/files/2010/9/15/ ... rinter.png - ZOMBOID http://www.fileden.com/files/2010/9/15/ ... rinter.png - FILTH http://www.fileden.com/files/2010/9/15/ ... rinter.png - GYAKUJOU TANNOU KELOID MILK http://www.fileden.com/files/2010/9/15/ ... rinter.png - MARMALADE CHAINSAW http://www.fileden.com/files/2010/9/15/ ... rinter.png - RED E.M. http://www.fileden.com/files/2010/9/15/ ... rinter.png - DRAIN AWAY http://www.fileden.com/files/2010/9/15/ ... rinter.png - KASUMI http://www.fileden.com/files/2010/9/15/ ... rinter.png - EMBRYO http://www.fileden.com/files/2010/9/15/ ... rinter.png - MUSHI http://www.fileden.com/files/2008/9/18/ ... rinter.png - NAMAMEKASHIKI ANSOKU (not really an old song, since it's from Marrow, but it's one I don't think they've played yet) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

relentless 254 Posted June 17, 2011 I remember reading an article saying that previously the band had not played any "oldies", because they didn't know overseas fans were very familiar with those songs. But as time goes on, they're more apt to play older songs -- knowing that there's actually a large fanbase that wants to hear them. But with that said -- I am also a fan of their newer material, and reallllyyyy hope they play a lot of DUM SPIRO SPERO when they tour. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
plz_dont_kill_me 0 Posted June 18, 2011 ^ So then why not try to make them aware that there is a fanbase for those songs? And after getting some "friendly" criticism elsewhere, I've been thinking maybe the better plan would be to hope for after-show signings like there had been for Rose Trims Again when they were promoting Uroboros and have fans pass off the sheet to the bandmembers instead of holding it up in the audience and running the risk of pissing someone off.

Shizumi 1 Posted August 7, 2011 ain't afraid to die! Favorite DEG song ever. If they're gonna play it here, manly tears sure will be shed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
X-Marc 7 Posted August 7, 2011 yes just got back, that was the setlist awsome gig, kyo's voice was really good, the bandmembers really seem to enjoy it. Die laughing a lot, Toshiya getting the crowd with him very well and Kyo was really trying people to mosh. awsome! new album songs are for me still a bit hard to follow, have listened to the album just twice now and i still need to get into it. but hearing Shokubeni gave me goosebumps. that and Red[em] were the songs that got me into diru, so hearing it was perfect. also to start with Hageshi really set the mood, really powerfull song to hear live go and see em!!!=p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jigsaw9 6783 Posted August 7, 2011 ^ Thanks for your live report! I'm glad the band was in high spirits and put on a good show. I'll catch them in Budapest on August 18th, can't wait!! (it will be almost exactly 4 years ago that I first saw them xD) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tony 1 Posted August 8, 2011 =O @ ain't afraid to die. that would have been epic live! Good to see they didn't totally overdo DSS songs and are gradually introducing them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wicked Teletubby 528 Posted August 8, 2011 X-Marc, can you confirm this setlist? is it true or still has some flaws in? the right order is still questionable. and one more question: what were the INWARD SCREAMs like? did they sound usually or more like the MOO? I've got one more update. there was an SE Outro - VANITAS (New Instrumental Mix). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Des 289 Posted August 8, 2011 Order and setlist looks about right to me, it was a great show! Dreambox was insane live, the whole band did an amazing job! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
X-Marc 7 Posted August 8, 2011 the screams were 2 different ones, the first one was a high one, the 2nd was a really psycho screaming, growling grunting one pretty awsome=) also during Shokubeni at 1 moment every stopped but Kyo and he didnt sing in the mic, but in the air, if you know what i mean=p it really gave me goosebumps, really powerfull voice and moment, then he continued with a huge grunt in the mic and the crownd gave a huge applaus, was really awsome Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
