Something Missed...

So yesterday was Versailles' second gig in the UK, and I missed it. Despite what I've heard, it's still one of the biggest regrets of my life. Unlike so many "fans", I really loved Holy Grail and since they played almost the entirety of it live, I'd love to have been there. Furthermore, the meet and greet, however brief, would absolutely have made ( Read more... )

Hm. Now sure i would agree with the overview of the live report. It was very animated and in the left hand side everyone seemed to have a good time i was at the front and experienced very little jostling. The band came to the font frequently also and really seemed to connect with the crowd, their break before the encore was tiny so they were clearly desperate to try and get through their setlist, which was long. The meet and greet was a bit of a whirlwind but there was time to shake and talk briefly with each member. Hizaki clearly felt confident with the crowd as he stage dived, i felt sorry for his beautiful dress! It is a shame you had to miss it but i am sure they will come back. The UK street team's presence was also strongly felt in the que, they were quiet organized and there book was large, leaving space for everyone to right a message and they were very patient traveling all the way down the que. The merch was also surprisingly good, including items such as fans, chain link bracelet, massive belt buckles, glowing roses, tour booklet, 3 sets of posters etc but the album was very expensive at £30 so i doubt many were sold. The outfits from the fans were also stunning from both girls and boys, more of aristocratic turn out then the last gig and there were many of the regulars sporting masquerade style masks. There seemed to be a new wave of fans turning up as well and although they were rather annoying, at some point we have all been there and they just need a bit of patience when dealing with, and perhaps a sharp elbow to the shoulder when there not looking ;) Hope to see more reports from you at future gigs and that you are having a pleasant time at Ubi.

Well thanks for your view, the merch sounds pretty good. I would have got the tour booklet I think, since I already have the deluxe version of Holy Grail. I hope someone else who did buy it can scan it!
