asdfghjkl;OMG
OH EM GEE, YOU GUYS! EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

I found it! I finally found it! After literally searching for YEARS, I finally found a complete video of L'Arc~en~Ciel's Budokan performance of DUNE!

Each time I tried to download this, it was always cut in half for some reason, but I finally found the whole thing. I guess this is as good a time as any to profess my undying love for YouTube and its generous supply of rare J-Rock vids. *marries YouTube*

Anyway, here's the unholy goodness of the performance for your viewing pleasure.

First, I feel I should warn you that this is olden L'Arc: Tetsu has long hair, Ken acts somewhat fruity, Sakura is buff like WOAH, and Hyde still looks like a girl and flounces around the stage in an incredibly girly manner. It can be a little off-putting to people who aren't used to seeing them this way (since they're MANLY now), so just don't say I didn't warn you.

The second half really reminds me of why I love Sakura Era L'Arc so much. Honestly, nowadays, their concerts aren't NEARLY as lively and fun as the one shown here. They don't even prompt the audience to sing the lyrics to the songs anymore, for whatever reason. I still regret the fact that I never attended their older concerts, because they're different people now, and in all likeliness, they'll never have performances like this again.

In any case, I'm veeeeeery happy that YouTube exists right now. Really.

All that aside, on the article front, I finally started on the debate collab with the rest of SOAP. It'll probably end up taking at least a week to get the whole thing done, but it should prove rather interesting. :)

Lastly, Finals are pretty much over for me. A word to the wise: no matter how good of a memory you have, don't EVER try to cram 140 kanji in less than two hours. In fact, don't ever try to cram as much as I do, period.
