Yeah, they could do a box set and strip us of our last remaining pennies. Have a dvd of the American tour and a dvd of their other shows. Plus two behind-the-scenes dvds....one in USA and one in Japan. This would cost plenty but it would cover all of the action.

you know you'd "find a way" to get it too.
*sighhhhhhhhhhhhhhh*
LOL! Yes, I was telling a co-worker about MONTHLY VAMPS 13 and how it was very expensive, and that I was not going to be able to get it, since I am still paying for the shows (*w* SHOWS!!!! OMV!!!) and he just laughed and said: "You KNOW you will get that magazine somehow!! I will sooner see you selling a kidney that missing that issue" X-D So I think yes... we will find a way. I hope crime rate doesn't raise to the clouds for our faults :-p

I looked up to see Ju-ken wearing it, during the concert, and I said, I know that hat! After the show, D told me that Ju-ken had pointed to his hat and motioned, and it seemed to him that Ju-ken was motioning for it, so D tossed it up on stage. Ju-ken immediately donned the hat, and modeled it while playing to D and friends, then tossed it back out to D, again. And now, Ju-ken has no doubt memorialized the smart red hat on film.
Another friendly personal moment, of which the members of the band have shared so many, with us.
Does anyone else miss them as if you were used to them being around all the time?
Yeah, I can't believe that there are no more shows to go to. It's like I am just waiting to go and get in line once again.
Agreed. Even though I only got to go to one show, I've been following the stories with much interest.

I waited 3 yrs for Hyde to return to Cali after I missed him in Anaheim cuz I wasn't paying attention, I was watching NY and all the other venues hating myself cuz I'd just found out Vamps was touring USA and already spent my monthly, so I was in a total bind going crazy and just bought LA tickets, then I couldn't handle it and made the smartest move of my life basically and went to SD !

I miss them too :( Now I don't know what city they're at every day, reading about lucky people seeing them and getting pictures. :( Lame.

Ohh come on cheer up! *hug* they will come back someday... or we will go to Japan and bring them!! ¬_¬
OH by the way!!!
I don't recall anyone mentioning it... Hyde dedicated VAMPIRE DEPRESSION to the audience, didn't he? He said "This one goes for you" and then he pointed to the crowd. Correct me if wrong?

For my birthday, I want people to stop singing about how I'm getting one year older and start anew, singing about how the human race in general consists of a bunch of hypocritical, war-staring scumbags.
In all seriousness, though, I wasn't at the show, but I'm pretty sure he meant the performance, not the song. Chances are that's probably what you mean and are all like, "... Dumbass." But the asshole in me feels the need to explain it.

... Well, I was startled when he said the words and very anxious to hear which song he was talking about (YES, I maybe am "dumbass" and at the moment I thought he meant THE SONG, not the performance X-D), I thought it'd be Evanescent, because I seriously thought it was dedicated to the fans (like Gackt dedicates song for his fans and so on) But I guess I was hallucinating X-D It was too pretty a song to dedicate to anyone non-related to him. Anyways... artists sometimes chose the most bizarre songs to dedicate to the fans, like Tarja's "Ciaran's well" that she said was for all the fans to thank them... that lyrics don't sound very happy @_@
Misty cold nights
You’ll hear her sigh and sing bittersweet lullabies
For years she prayed the saints would cast a spell for the forest to let her go
The black old well holds ancient tales and makes all wishes come true
So throw your dream into the dark and blue will come for you
Or when Tuomas Holopainen wrote "Slaying The Dreamer" and said that were his feelings. His band mates must have felt really complimented X-D
You bathed in my wine, drank from my cup, mocked my rhyme,
your slit tongues licked my aching wounds.
Blame me, it's me: coward, a good-for-nothing scapegoat
Dumb kid, living a dream, romantic only on paper.
You bastards tainted my tool, raped my words, played me a fool,
gather your precious glitter and leave me be!
The Great Ones are all dead and I'm tired, too... I truly hate you all!
I don't know what he meant but even if the song is not a happy one, I think that if he dedicated it, it was with a good intention. Like you said, the performance, not the words... there have been cases of people dedicating lyrics and performances to the fans I guess... I will google it!!!! :-D The point of all this babbling is that I wasn't implying he had called us stupid selfish human trash X-D
RE: impressions - gakkuhai - 08-16-2009
Oh my! He must hate us? XD Just kidding. I remember him saying that but I didn't even remember what song! But he probably meant the performance. Like when he said "We're here because of you" and stuff
