I feel like it's been Hell trying to catch up since the Dir en grey shows.
But those shows were crazy.
Erin and I met some amazing people who renewed my faith in the fan base...and we're totally going back to Houston to visit them soon.



Houston show= AMAZING. Flat out. Got in line at like...3am, met some cool people and shared blankets. We were like 5th in line. Spent most of the day in a anxious attempt to sleep. Most of the night trying to keep our spots in line as the time grew nearer...THEN...
It happened.

I was right smack in the middle, on the barricade...staring up at Kyo. I hate to be one of those people who sound so in awe over him. But it was amazing. Pure magic.
I had a blast. I got the setlist..blah blah...Erin got a pick of Die's..



The TREES had NO damn barricade. I was right on the stage, grabbing on Kyo's stand and trying my hardest to make sure I didn't move. (I lasted two songs in Dallas...4+ nights of no sleep and this random Asian chick punching me in the face= gave up really quickly. I didn't want to be the kind of fan that hurts others.) I went up to the right hand side balcony with Erin, Victoria, and Julie and watched the rest of the show. After the show everyone, but myself, left the balcony to catch things. Die was being cute and letting people grab picks from his hand. Then he went to splash water. I waved my hand out and he looked up at me, smiled really widely, and threw water up into the balcony. After the show Erin and I got to hang out with Die a bit and talk to him.

We're trying to go to the California or Colorado shows coming up. But the dang holidays got airfare all expensive.....

    Excuse me, I saw that you got a setlist at the Houston Dir en grey show, and was wondering how? Every time I try to get one, either the people onstage pretend not to hear me as they take apart the stuff onstage, or Nora tells me "they're all out." What is your secret?

    It's hard to get them from the stage actually.
    Go to the back at the sound mixing area and ask them. They have a copy and will give it to you if you ask.
    Most of the roadies think fans are annoying (so I've heard at least) and will ignore any requests. And Nora...Is a whole 'nother story.

    Thank you very much :)
    I read you were thinking about going to the California shows? If you go to the San Francisco one, we should meet up in line.

    We were going to go, but money is really tight since we're moving to Japan. :\ I heard they were doing a signing. If you can snap some pictures of Kyo. XD I'm sad we have to miss it.

    Yeah, last year in San Francisco it was Kaoru and Die, so hopefully this year it will be Toshiya and Shinya so I can get my copy of UROBOROS signed by all of them (since Kyo will never do a signing that doesn't involve all of the band). And I plan on taking videos there and maybe (just maybe) recording the audio of it.
    You can check out some videos I took at last year's SF show here: [link] (and they're not in shit quality)
