Updated revised 2/2/07 Dir en grey concert review xD
*Sighs* Yeah it took me a while to write this, but meh I've been lazy, and disoriented ever since the concert xD I don't know what the world it did to me, but I've felt different ever since then.

I got to the concert venue around 3:10. And ended up forgetting my ticket in the car, lol yeah I know, pathetic, but I was just so excited. Luckily I remembered to go back and get it before we left the parking lot. xD So, I walk over to the line and see some people I had met at FVT in Tampa last year.They were really nice xD (One girl was short, and had a Kyo shirt on that said "Who's yo daddy" xD that made me laugh so badly.)

Then a little while later a security guy came around looking for the red tickets to get in early so me and my friend Maddie (Miyavi cosplayer wearing the pink Great hat) go into the HOB restaurant and by food (that I never ended up getting) and got the red ticket. Then the drummer from Bleed the Dream came out into the line and was handing out guitar picks, and I talked with him for a few minutes and gave him a hug. We met up with some more friends that were from the Tampa area, and I saw Mike again (At FVT in Tampa he was wearing this shirt that said "I want Toshiya's ass" xD), and my friend Rose. (*huggles her*)

I was probably video taped like 5 times in line, and one time the Japanese guy with the camera got my dad in it too xDD At one point I showed my friends my D'espairsRay underwear while the same Japanese guy as before was taping beside me xDD

But anyway 6:30 we were let in. (Ugh >< it was hard to get in so many people pushing each other, and no room to breathe ><) But me and Maddie went to the Merch booth and bought a dog tag, wrist band, and the tour shirt. I ended up having to put the shirt I bought over my other diru t-shirt. (Hot xD)

First we were about 4 rows of people back on Die's side, it was pretty comfortable to breathe then. Bleed the Dream came on and I really liked them, they got the crowed going I caught the Bassist pick between my wrists and put it in my pocket but ended up losing it when the concert was over. T_T Fair to Midland came on... They just killed the crowed.. I personally didn't like them too much. The vo. had some good vocals at times.. but he wouldn't stop drooling everywhere >< and the guy on the keyboards looked like IT.

Ok I admit I thought the crowed was bad during the opening bands.. heh wrong, That was just the beginning. When diru was setting up people started going crazy >< All my friends ended up leaving me in the pit to go up to the balcony because of what the other people were doing. I was getting knocked around so much I ended up getting moved from my spot and thrown to my left and shoved to the front. I was then 2-3 rows of people back, now in front of Kyo xD

G.D.S came on and omg I was getting so mad at people yelling Kyo, and yelling after Kyo quit yelling Kill, that in one of the breaks of the songs were everyone had shut up I yelled "Shut up! It's not Kyo its Kill!!" I guess I got a few peoples attention but the rest were idiots and continued to say it wrong. But anyway all the members came on stage, (and me I forgot the set list >< But they played stuff from Vulgar, WTD, their new songs and some of their older songs like Mr.Newsman. Kyo ended up ripping his jacket off in the first couple songs I think.. I yelled, screamed along with the lyrics, but I stopped when ever he sang by himself without the instruments, and I felt the crowed trying to contain their urges of screaming out.. but they ended up doing it anyway.

There were mosh pits forming at the back of the crowed which I wasn't really in one. But at one point the left side of the crowed pushed against the right side of the crowed, and me being in the middle gets squeezed between them and then the right side pushes back causing me and 3 other girls to fall over. But there was this really nice guy behind me that I had met in line that helped me up quickly and yelled for people to get the others up too.

Mean while Kyo started cutting himself, fish hooking, and best of all put his 'Rape Me' bucket on his head and grabbed himself xD That was the most awesome thing I've ever seen. Then Kyo drank from his water bottle and spit it out over the middle of the crowed.. And I had both of my arms up at the time and I got it all over my arms and some of it got into my mouth xD I remember taking time just standing there to see what it tasted like..Salty.. and something else xDD Later on in the show I got Die, Toshiya, and Kaorus water on me too, which was indeed love too. lol.

During the break I guess the crowed thought the concert was over and everybody started chanting 'One more song!' I tried as best I could to say it but I had to stop because my voice was getting so raspy and I had to catch my breathe since we was so tightly packed together that I could barely breathe. Diru came back on and everyone was happy again. I just wished it would've lasted long..But I don't think my body would've been able to handle it xD

After the concert was over both of my tour shirt were soaked in sweat and my pants were too T_T But I was very proud I made it through, and didn't have to be pulled out. After going to that concert I felt like they were actually doing a show like they would in Japan, unlike FVT which was like a sample of the show we were getting now xD I ended up getting home around 12 o'clock in the morning and falling asleep. xD
