LOL yeah! Meeting people who love Vamps (and Hyde) as much as I do. so many people just judge me for loving a tiny 40 year old Japanese man so it was nice making friends so easily.

Also catching Hyde's pick at SF and (I'm so weird) seeing him cry at LA. It was beautiful

xD yes but a very hot and super talented tiny 40 year old Japanese man lol
u got a pick too i did but i stole it at the end cuss he was gone
and it was there so yeah XD

Hyde briefly pausing to look over and smile after I yelled "Feels good" (in Japanese) at SD show, and the txt.messaging at LA show that said "Glay is better then Vamps" (that was funny), and everything all the great fans posted of other shows . Also, it was my first time to see Kaz he's fkn insane I'm now a fan of him ! I thought it was pretty funny too when Ju-ken did "jerk the mizu" that sick mofo - Lol .

Vamps changed my life my best experience was meeting other people and seeing ju-ken everthing was just amazing

I voted "no" in the poll
I had a great time, but going from Chile was a huge effort and i don't think i'll do something like that for VAMPS again. If they come to my country i'll totally go to their show, though.
Ah...many great memories: the funny drawings in the banner, Celeste and FairyEyez helping me with my present, the eclectic audience, me being so close to VAMPS, Ju-Ken's high five and lots of eye contact with me ^o^, hyde's adorable MCs, KAZ being awesome, being blessed by hyde's holy water, my fav songs: Sweet Dreams, Jesus Christ, Redrum and Life on Mars....and the massive invasion of a local supermarket by dehydrated fans after the show.

Honestly, it wasn't the concerts themselves that were the best for me, but waiting in line for hours on end and becoming such good friends with *so* many people. By the end of the week at Otakon, I felt like I knew some of you girls for years and we had only met a few days before. :');;;

(Between just NYC and Baltimore, that was 37 hours I spent in line. Now lets add in all day for 2 Warped Tours. That's... a lot of time. :'D;;;)



But if I had to chose concert wise: The fact that Hyde took his shirt off in Baltimore and we could see his nipple piercings. XD

I also count the moment I touched Ju-Ken in NYC and Hyde in Baltimore to be high up there, as well as getting A PICK FROM ALL 3 OF THEM. [/rant]

I saw them in las vegas and the best memories were finding out VAMPS was staying in the same underpopulated part of the hotel as me (only open for 2 days and we were the first people to stay in the rooms) and then running into Ju-ken literally like 10 different times or more, getting his autograph and taking pictures with him. Then running into KAZ a few times and getting a pick handed right to me, hand to hand, at the concert and shaking his hand. Then touching Hyde's calf and getting a high five at the concert from him and then seeing him later after the concert at the elevator and talking (not for long but it was awesome nonetheless). Those were all my best memories.

I can't pick the best memory! They were all so amazing! The whole concert in general was amazing.

Funny memories would have to be when Hyde sprained my wrist when he high fived me super hard (work sucked then ext day because of it). Funniest would have to be Ju-ken's little deed with the water bottle then coming to the edge of the stage in Soma and having basically all the water pumped onto me...my shirt, hair, and FACE were drenched. He tossed his towel and I caught it. I wiped my face with it because I couldnt see 'cause of all the water on my face (even though he used it. I washed my face really good that night lmao). The girl next to me looked at me in awe after it happened and said, "You're DRENCHED o_o" It was hilarious. Memory I will not forget at all.

I'm so glad I got to see Hyde live finally. I was supposed to go see him back in 2006 but my brother was being lame about how he didnt want to wait (we were already in Anaheim and I had a free ticket...). So my wish from back in middle school finally came true <3

I wont forget the San Diego concert ever. It was one of the best ones i've been too and I really hope they come back soon (and hopefully to San Diego again! Im sick of going to LA for all these kind of concerts!)

Oh so many fond memories, it's difficult to tell which ones were the best. I'll never forget how excited I was when the VAMPS USA tour was announced on my BIRTHDAY (March 20). It was like the tour was made specifically for me.

The trip to Baltimore in itself was a memory. I was about ready to cry because I was afraid I wouldn't make it on time. But I finally made it in good timing. When I finally entered the building, the way the strobe light operators teased us by putting us under the impression that the band would come out soon pissed me off. I was MAD at them so much. I was about to shout "GET ON WITH IT!" But looking back on it now, that was all part of the experience.

Finally, when VAMPS finally came out. God, it was a dream come true. I couldn't help but shout "AISHITEIRU!!!!" every five minutes until they finally began LOVE ADDICT. I didn't really like the song too much when it came out, but I couldn't help but dance and jump and clap to it. There was also thrill of seeing IT'S SAD and DOLLY live. Since 2007, I would watch performances of IT'S SAD and DOLLY and they would always be my favorites to just watch live. I was so glad to see the performances live in Baltimore. That is, along with a ton of my other favorite songs, including HELLO, which officially made it a VAMPS concert.

There was also a part where I was splashed in the face by HYDE... or someone. I think it was HYDE being I was closer to HYDE than anyone else. Anyway, it felt great. Especially since it was so hot in there. I was so depressed when it had dried T_T

Of course the memory I remember most fondly is the performance of SWEET DREAMS, which has become very sentimental to me. Before I go into that, it's important to know that I originally didn't like HYDE's solo project at all. I loved L'Arc~en~Ciel for no apparent reason, but not HYDE's solo work. Without going to far into my personal life, the passing of someone I held dear to me traumatized me for a long while. Somehow, though, I came across JESUS CHRIST on YouTube while listening to WINTER FALL in an attempt to cheer myself up. The music and lyrics were a perfect description as to how I felt at the time. Just the feeling of being able to relate to HYDE's struggle in the song got me interested in more of HYDE's solo project. From that point on, HYDE's solo music seemed to be a source of relief for me. Each time I would go through some kind of struggle, there was a HYDE song that fit my struggle perfectly. Though it never SOLVED the problem, it eased the burden of it.

Now fast forward to 2009, before the concert I was feeling very down. My best friend was going through a number of hardships, and I felt like my life was reaching its lowest point. I don't know why, but when the band began playing SWEET DREAMS, everything seemed to change. Nothing was solved, but somehow, being there to hear SWEET DREAMS live gave me hope. Maybe it's the line "Because surely there will be good tomorrows." I don't know, but it really touched me deeply and that hope is still alive in my heart even though the concert ended about two weeks ago. Throughout the entire performance, I was crying, and even though it must have been at least 100 degrees in the venue, I had goosebumps. I felt like I was freezing to death. It was simply amazing. I was able to drown out all the fans shouting "OMG I LOVE YOU!" and hear nothing but the music. To put it simply, it was a magical experience I'll never forget.

Another great memory... although I didn't think it would be then... was getting lost in Baltimore on the way back. I was so scared. XD - But I managed to arrive home safely. The concert itself was one of the best experiences of my life. From the very announcement of the US tour, it felt like the show was set up specifically for me... maybe that sounds selfish. I dunno. It just went so perfectly. I'll definitely make an effort to see VAMPS again if they come closer to me. Hopefully not Baltimore again. I've been to Virginia many times and I was convinced it had the worst road system in the world... then I went to Baltimore and realized I was wrong. Seriously, is there a point in an intersection if almost every road is a one way road? >> - But if they come closer, I'll definitely make it my goal to see them once again!

(Okay, I know that was a tad mellow-dramatic, but shut up >:[)
