I just came back from Diru live, took a shower and strat to write!! I know you all wait for this1 and tomorrow I will forget most of things >_<;;;
We went to Columbia Hall around 4 pm, because it was damn hot and Miho could stand the weather. Mori and Miho were staying in the shadow at the end of the street and I went to the front of CH to find my friends. I was full! And with every second there were coming more of fans dressed up as gosurori, diru cosplay etc. I was suprised to see that there were about 30-40 japanese fans!! O.O;; And few even fainted in front of live house because of heat! I was standing under tree in the shadow, but it wasn't lasting long, as the tree was coverd with ants and they bite me all over my back T_T I met under that tree a girl named Vanessa, from Germany who wasn't speaking english quite good, but she was alone so I couldn't leave her, ne? She bought ticket before live! I was suprised as they were still selling tickets on the right side of CH. I took her to Mori and Miho and Mori was talking with that girl in german. We were watching fans heading for live amazed by they clothes when suddenly I saw familiar face. It was Steffi (with her friend), girl I met when I was in Tokyo. We were in harajuku haunting for cosplayers ;D So now there were more of us. I was also looking for leeloo, Petra and Davi, but couldn't find them :( Girls wanted to get into livehouse atthe end, but me and Vanessa wanted to get to the front. Before, I drunk a lot of water and I needed to go to bathroom very badly. I had to go there alone as nobody wanted to join me _^_ Just then in toliet I saw few girls but when I get in they were going out. I catched them on the crossing and noticed they tshirts with address of polish homepage. I start the talk and suddenly I noticed something familiar.... I pointed to onbe of them and said: "You're from Warsaw, right?" She had no idea what's going on and said only "yeah.." and I said we know each other from livejournal!! It was milly_uzumaki :D And we went together to the livehouse on the way passing my friends. It was 30 minutes to opening. Something start to going on because fans were shouting. I run there but coudn't see anything I asked 3 japanese girls what's going on and they told me about the French flag hanging there. I went there and ask if they know leeloo, but NO! >_<;; I came back to thoes japanese girls and start to talk with them. We were talking about jrockand one of them was even fan of Ruki from gazette, just like me!! :D We exchange mails as they will be staying in Berlin few more days and we can meet ^^ then when it was already time I went to people waiting for opening. When they finally did it at 7:02 all people moved to the front! I felt like a sandwich XD Some of them had water and they were spreading it on us. Sometimes cold wind was blowing and everybody were giving "ahhhhhhh.." sounds XDD
When I menaged to get to the hall first I run to the right side, but it was much crowder than left side. So I decide I prefer to watch Totchi and moved as close to the stage as possible. I saw there a couple: hight guy and small girl looking like she will going to pass out. He start to shout to people: "stop it! Don't push! She need air!" I told him it's not my fault and no use as he can't stop people from whole livehouse! When I saw she feelö really bad I told him: "Get out of here and go at the back! When Diru will go out and fans start to jump and push to the front, she will die!" He wasn't listening! So I left them there. At the beginning I was in 5th row in front of Kaoru. After 5 minutes I was already in 2nd ^^ I wanted first, but couldn't menage it. Live haven't start yet but they were talking out collapsed girls from audience. It was like disease! Every minute one girls was talking off from tight crowd. Live was suppose to start at 8:30 but they had delay. At 9 lights turn off and thay start to play one of thoes songs at the beginnign of live, at the same time they announce some information about diving and making photos (all forbidden), and they did it in 4 languages: german, french, english and japanese. Moments later memebers one after another start to show up! First was Shinya, then Die in long red/black hair, Toshiya in long curly hair which didn't suit him well, Kaoru and Kyo. I was screaming like crazy "Totchi!!!!!" and other names. The beginning was really good as they were observing fans. They were just standing in front and watching us posing at the same as real models *.* they start live with Merciless Cut, C' and so on. First encore was almost only Withering to death songs and Kyo's voice sounded weak, like maybe he wasn't sure how European fans will react for live. Toshiya had cotume shoing his bare chest and I was drooling like hell there *.* Just them in one monet I got eye contact with him!!!!! He looked at me, get back to his bass and look atme again!! I though I will get wild from happiness!!! Kyo was again covered in his blood and I was doing everything not to see it because I felt it painful... I don't want him to do such things! T_T
Also as before they were taking out collapsed fans one after another. The best was they gived us water. Security was walking from one side of the stage to another and pour water stright to our mouth. And of course because of that, we get all wet XD But it was really cool! I met 2 girls there and when any of us get buttlw with water, was taking small sip and pass it to the others. I don't remeber much from first encore, because it was more like a battle for water and air than watching live... In one moment they were playing melodic song and I closed my eyes enjoing the sound. When I opened them I was japanese guy from Diru crew pointing lighter atmy face and ask if I'm "OK?" I nod and smiled. I was perfectly fine! Thoes collapsed fans are probbably thoes whospend 2 day in front of CH in heat! It was just stupid!
When encore finished I couldn't stand the heat between bodies and the guy in front of me was quite high and I couldn't catch fresh air! I went to the bar to buy some water (yes, there's bar inside hall ^^), but it was really expensive! 2 euro for 0,2 l of clear water!! >_<;;; The second encore I was watching from the backof the livehouse, I was standing in quite big distance from other people but Iwas jumping and shouting don't care about them :P I had nice view on all members as before I couldn't see Die ;_; They played maybe 4 songs and get of the stage. We heard them announce they make 20minutes break, because too many people collapse and they want us to take some air. They didn't let us out in front of CH, but we could go to the garden on right side. I sat there only a while as I saw many people going to the balcony. I though I have enough of jumping and want to see some live sop I went there. Before the break finished I found there Steffie with her friend! :D and we were talking about memmories from Japan and today's live. When band appeared, this time I had really clear view. And they also played much much better! Kyo seem to have more self confidence as his voice became strong and they played more knowed songs like mr.newsman (I don't remeber whole set list). When they start to play Obscure, some fan in front throw big, empty bottle to Kyo, but fortunatelly it dropped on his right side and didn't hurt him. He only made angry face and shook his head. Music was really went really smooth and watching fans from up was just great! Then we heard him saying "Last song!" and they played Child prey. This song is great for live!!! But it was oblivious thatpresent fans are not familiar with Diru songs. There'smoment in song when fans shout deep "A!" 3 times and 4th is something like "chuchuru", but most of fans were shouting "A!" 4 times! XDD When song finished Die and Toshiya as first get off the stage. Kaoru thorw in fans some guitar picks and Shinya 3 drumstick. Later they fallowed other guys. On stage was only Kyo. I was really suprised as I've seen him always getting off us one of first. And what was ever more shocking we was smiling! He was really really happy as live was succesful! He had 2 buckets with ice and inside were buttles with water. He start to take (all of) them out, put water into his mouth and spill on fans! he did it with all bottles (maybe 6-7) and them he took the bucket with melted ice, which already became water. Instead of putting it on fans he throw it all on his head! Then hee took the second bucket and throw to the people in front rows! When he get off the stage fans start to shout "Dir en grey", but me and Steffie were shouting "ankoru" (jap. encore), after a while all people around us were also shouting ankoru! ankoru! and they appeared again!!!
People went wild! And they played only one song - "S". At the end in background we could hear I'll piano version (like in osaka-jo hall video) and band was walking around thorowing stuff to fans. Die was trying to throw bottle to the balcony, but he didn't menage it. Toshiya,standing in the middle of stage also try it and he did it!!! Whole hall was filled with applause! He tried it again by kicking the bottle, but it hit first row under stage XDDD Shinya gived again some of him drumsticks and Die throw to the people about 15, red guitar picks!!! + towel and other stuff he had in his reach. Kaoru was also doing it. Again the last person leaving stage was Kyo. He shouted bai bai and all fans answered "sayounara!" His face was really covered with happiness and this made me happy too. He looked so sweet and radiant you know... It's first time I saw him like that!
By leaving the livehouse I felt I want more! More live, more Dir en grey!!!!! But I'm sure I want to see them in Japan. European fans are too dangerous on live and they actually don't know the special moves used by japanese and I missed it somehow...
