Himchan is my spirit animal. Kai is my love and weakness. Fandom makes me happy.
Reita: I basically think, a band is something you give your everything to, so I guess people who think too much bout unnecessary things will just go down and fade away. dealyamashita: my thoughts exactly! that goes for all professions that create and produce something, doesn’t it?(^.^) I’m not in a band but I was really pissed at that blog! Reita: the other day I saw the skills of a professional magician right before my eyes, I was suuuuper excited 🎩 Reita: also, I immediately went out and bought some playing cards…♠️ perhaps I’m the one who thinks too much bout unnecessary stuff? 🤔👎 Reita: that feeling of “OMG! so cool! I wanna learn iiiit!” when you see it in front of you. that’s my driving force for the band 🤘🏻 _____________________ Note: The first two tweets refer to something Ryuusei (of the band Kyogetsu) posted on his blog. I didn’t read the whole text but from what I gathered he talked about how hard it is to make a living from being a V-Kei artist, how expensive everything is and how much other bands make. In that post, he didn’t directly mention the GazettE by name but he did say something like “a certain band that recently did a show at conifer forest” and I think he just compared how much major bands make in contrast to smaller bands (like his own). He also tweeted something along the lines of “everybody is so sad bout all these bands breaking up or going on hiatus but you might wanna think about that one of the reasons for that is the fact that less and less bandgirls are willing to spend their money on LIVES” which seems to have been the final straw for a lot of people (A LOT of GazettE fans) who commented on both his blog entry and his tweet. They basically told him not to blame fans for his failures, that bandgirls are not his ATMs and that, if he’s only in it for the money, he might wanna consider quitting music and finding another, more secure job. I think, that’s also Reita’s main point, that if he’s not gonna give it his best he might as well just stop cause he’s gonna fail and disappear. However, he did post an apology on his twitter regarding his thoughts and comments.
in our genre we become entirely different characters for each song or album concept, including the make-up and costumes, and are reborn as our fully new selves, right?
that’s interesting.
Ruki:
so, what I wanna say is that for our next comeback we’ll be bringing our strongest sound, visuals and world views EVER so be prepared. for something so amaaaazing that nobody’s gonna be able to keep up.
Ruki:
and then, we’re gonna take this new album, go round Japan and then to all kinds of countries. there’s nothing but to look forward to it, huh!
I’m so relieved that we finished the LIVE at Fujikyuu Conifer Forest the other day and we could finally announce SPOOKY BOX2 and the NEW ALBUM without any incidents. Today we did an after-LIVE interview at the office so I think you’ll get to see our impressions and thoughts on the show eventually, like in reports and stuff, but even though I don’t really mention it in the interview, for some reason I felt like the after-show announcement video that we always put a lot of effort into was especially well-received this time and I’m pretty sure I wasn’t the only one who felt that way. We had a great time during the creation process and enjoyed the company of the other members so much while producing both SPOOKY BOX2 and the NEW ALBUM that I think we raised our own sense of anticipation even more. I’m also glad that it made me see once again that whatever you do you should always approach it with an attitude of joy and fun, it was especially stimulating for future album creations. …apart from this enthusiasm for the future, I would like to thank everyone who came all the way to Fujikyuu. I think it’s thanks to your prayers for fine weather with your Teru Teru Bōzus that we had clear weather and, as a result we were able to see a view that was different from the one 9 years ago. For a band like us who have a very deep-rooted impression of being a rain band that was quite a great accomplishment. Alright, there’s still some time until SPOOKY BOX2 but please look forward to it, it’s gonna be a dark horror show that’ll surpass the last one so don’t miss it!
Reita: it seems the fireworks festivals in Tokyo were cancelled cause of the rain, such a shame, but we were able to watch fireworks together, weren’t we? ✋🏻
usually during our LIVES there’s a lot of tension and excitement cause of the release of adrenaline rather than that sense of emptying your mind and having fun, but today I was truly able to get rid of every thought in my head and enjoy myself! ☺️ 🤘
I’ve been in this band for 15 years now but my attitude towards how to enjoy myself and have fun at LIVES and everything really doesn’t change for me. that’s why, even though the music may change day after day, the fun and passion we feel at LIVES doesn’t and I wanna keep conveying this feeling to you guys!
I’m so used to this pure feeling and each time we have a LIVE I think this is the best show we’ve ever done, that’s how much I love this band! Fujikyuu Highland Conifer Forest was that kinda show🌋!
There may not be a thing called eternity but it was such an amazing and happy time that I had to think of it.
Reita: BIAB3 is over! there was another festival today so thank you guys for choosing Fujikyuu! ✋🏻thanks to you we were able to make some great, summer memories 🤘🏻amongst all the sad news of this world, the 5 of us will keep running at full speed and go our own way since we still have a long way to go so we’re counting on you guys! 🤘🏻come with us 💪🏻 Reita: we will see you next on Halloween. I think, we’re gonna let you feel that we went all out, even more than last year ✋🏻everyone who’s attending will get a piece of meat from the members as a present ☠️ Aoi: here, eat a piece of my meat 👻 Aoi: to everyone who came to see us on this hot day, thank you! it waseven more fun than I had imagined. whenever you guys look like you’re enjoying yourselves I’m happy. it’s because I wanna see everyone’s smiling faces that I can do my best and work really hard. looking at it like that, we would like to ask you all to keep supporting us, the 5 guys who are so very far away from your smiles. I also made some mistakes but it was a really fun day! thank you!
Ruki: tomorrow it’s finally time for BIAB3 at FujiQ Highland・Conifer Forest !! 🌋💣🔥 I’ve been waiting for this day ! ! today we rehearsed at the venue and it kept changing between rain and a clear sky, but at this point I’m just truly and extremely excited bout tomorrow, regardless of the weather! either way, outdoor LIVES are great! 🙆 I’m already looking forward to seeing you all come together tomorrow, become one and go totally wild. just a little longer till the LIVE! everyone, your necks must have gone soft so while stretching and turning your heads, check out the attractions* while waiting! 🙋♂️🙋💣 tomorrow let’s do our best to have an amazing time and have so much fun that we’ll forget everything ! ! 🔥🔥#thegazette #liveinsummer17 #biab3 #fujikyuuhighland #openairlive #explosion #ImGettingExcitedButTheRainsGottaStop #DidYouMakeTeruTeruBōzus? ___________________ *Like the archive gallery, the food truck, the goods booth, etc.
