MUCC, D'espairsRay, and The Underneath Live @ Biloxi, Mississippi 3/29.
First of all, that AP pass and Cut the Line bracelet did JACK shit for me. I got there at like 10 AM in the morning though when there was only like 10 people there, so it didn't really matter.. but still. They kept giving us the damn run-around and none of them ever knew what it was for or where to tell us to go. In the least to say, I was pissed. When I got in, they made us go sit on the floor of the venue to claim where we would stand and such.
The first band, I didn't catch their name, was really good. They were on the second stage while Desray was still getting set up and everyone had totally PILED into the floor. I was right behind someone who was on the baracade, so I was right up there. I was also center stage.
Then it was Desray's turn to play as soon as they got done and we totally flipped the fuck out. Jen was like "You're gonna cry aren't you?" I said no, and was conviced I wouldn't. Definately cried and screamed when they fist started. WHATEVER. D: I'll get the setlist together and post it later. But I remember them playing Reddish, Mirror and Sixty Nine. They also played something really, really soft and slow at one point and some guy behind me yelled "BOOO" and like everyone shot him a dirty look. Surprisingly though, the hill billy state responded very well to them for the most part. The floor was absolutely packed for them, everyone was screaming and jumping, and yeah. xD I was telling alot of people behind me that they were good while we were sitting on the floor and waiting for them to say we could stand, they seemed really skeptic but open to the idea. Then when Desray started one of them tapped me on the shoulder, half huggd me, and was like "THEY'RE AMAZING." and he was freaking out and stuff. He turned to his friend at one point and goes "I think I secretly came here for this Japanese Rock mess, where the fck have I been?" Hizumi was absolutely insane. I loved his energy. The stage was to far from the crowd for him to touch anyone, but it was obvious he wanted to interact really bad. He hopped up on the speakers constantly and looked us all in the eyes, then danced around. Zero and Karyu tended to stay in one place, but they were still really entergetic where they were -- especially Zero. Tsukasa kept making crazy faces and at one point he looked like he was pretending to tongue someone for quite a while and that made everyone flip out. I think I got pictures of it, don't remember. I loved when Hizumi started pumping up the crowd and he never once got a bad response, everyone always followed his lead. He also yelled "HEY DO YOU LIKE JROCK?" alot. xD I loved it. It sounded more like "Do yew rike shayrock?" But I got the picture. I understood most everything he said, but with some difficulty. He talked to the crowd alot. <3
Then it was Idiot Pilot's turn. They were okay. Not as good as the first two bands, they were nice at the AP booth though.One of them saw my copy of Shoxx I had brought for Desray and Mucc to sign and started talking to me about Japanese magazines and we kinda held up the line for a second. He told me about how much he absolutely loved Fruits. xD I wonder if anyone on the tour got him into that, or he already knew about it before. Regardless, it was cool.
Then came MUCC. My absolute favorite. How Tatsu said "Biloxi" was amazing. "HERRO BRUXI MIZZIZZIPPI." He randomly said.. "Yeah." and "What?" alot. xD It was great. He also talked a whole lot like Hizumi. I gotta get their setlist organized too still, but of course they played Fuzz and Libra. Fuzz was amazing. I still don't know which was my favorite though. That Harmonica kills. And EVERYONE was having fits over Yukke's bass. I think one of my favorite moments of the live was when Tatsurou started dancing in Libra. Pulling his hair, pressing his fingers against his head and mess. I could go on forever, but yeah. I'm still totally exhausted.
Rotfl, someone pulled out part of my weave and stroked my hair throughout Mucc's set.
The Underneath was good from what I saw, I know I absolutely love the studio album, so. xD I got all three bands to sign stuff, hugged them, took pictures. The works. They were all SO friendly. I'm gonna write up more about all the signings and stuff later and post pictures. I'm gonna F-Lock that post though so not just anyone can get into it, but if someone wishes to see it all -- you can add me. It wont be until around Thursday/Friday maybe. I gotta get a new USB cord for my camera. They even signed a magazine I brought. They were all great. D: I'll also discuss Harry making fun of me and my friends all through Avenge Seven Fold's set and laughing at us constantly. >_> He likes to discuss all the uses of panties. He's ridiculous. xD
EDIT : I forgot to mention Hizumi's incident with the mic. xD It was great. I was talking to someone about it, and decided it needed to be posted. He totally got tangled up in it, dropped it, flipped out and went crazy. Played off nicely since him going crazy didn't surprise anyone.
So yeah, this will stay public. Pictures and such I'll F-Lock later. That was the most amazing experiance of my life. Seriously though, what made me SO happy was a whole lot of people walked away from that live as new fans of all three of them. I heard alot of BS before the show, but everyone was thrilled with all of the Japanese performances afterwards. It was great.
