Hey sorry late reply XD I'm doing fine, how are you doing? :P

haha sounds wild XD like a true metalhead(?) anyways good to hear you;ve had a good time. any chance for you to return to either ftv or vkjr? :P

did you have a nice bday? :P (come back to vkjr. visualkeichic is gone now..)

I see HearJapan got you too. :V;; Stupid spammers. Anyway, congratulations on your test, that's pretty cool. Nice that you didn't have to wait ages for the result, too.

Ah, good luck for your midterm today, then!! You'll do fine, I'm sure! What's it on? D:

Ohh. Well, I'm more like the direct opposite (aside from Starbucks thefts), but I could certainly point you in the direction of some. Oh, England. <3 What are your plans this weekend?

Hooligan? I don't follow! XD I've been spending loads of time with my housemates and going straight to bed (whoo hoo, party animal), so music doesn't get a time slot these days! House to myself this weekend though. Huzzuh! Still have a lot of work to do though. :V Pssh, stupid university.

Hey. XD What's up in the world of Cristo?

haha Chimaira isn't exactly my cup of tea...I would like to see Dethklok tho, but they really need a better supporting act

Well the dir en grey gig had a pit. Weird dutch metal heads really think think dir en grey has no female fans or something XD they seriously could've killed someone with the average age there =/ and yeh, myv's gonna be high female pheromonic-rated

Deaths touring? who's singing/touring with them?

haha yeah ChthoniC and Dir en grey are ace...I really need to listen to Sigh more too lol

ahh ok...I'm going to see miyavi, I'm going to see miyavi XD you're going to see longhaired drunken metalheads ;p

Some of the artist names are astonishing. Like aLiCe nInE. Wtf!? And oi, I've been working, you. XD Working and socialising! No time for music lately.

Damn you XD that kinda cracked me up pretty much XDDD How are you doing? Still alive under that massive pile of schoolstuff? :P

Last.fm must have an optimistic outlook recently, haha. Are you enjoying the 'correct artist name campaign'? 8D

nice...jpop/vk/metal all in your top 50!

Wow, feels like my counter's hardly moved since last time we spoke! XD Congratulations! I've been alright - on Easter holidays now. :D What have you been up to?

Hmm, I wonder what made it change its mind? Maybe all that cali=gari I spy. 8D Gah, lucky you - it's so cold here!! Classes are going well, thank you. It's nice to be back in a work routine, as much as I resent it!!

The concert was grand!! And exams have been not suicide-worthy just yet, so huzzuh. When do (did?) you get your final results btw? Are they quick in getting back to you? The auto thing sounds pretty cool. Anything that gets you out in the fresh air, amirite? ;D Good news about the band... almost!! Which band is it?

poo? XD I'm doin ok, almost at the and of my testweek. (ftv temporarily removed our beloved japanese bands thread and replaced it for a testrun of the general music thread) how are you doing?

I slacked off in the extreme, sad to say. XD So thank you for the luck, I'll need it. So, what sort of a work/school balance do you have? I can imagine it's tough, I know I couldn't manage, and I don't have that many hours at uni. :V

I'm going back to uni tomorrow, yeah. 8'D But my classes don't start for about 3 weeks yet. I have exams in that time, though. How are your classes going?

Hey, so we are! 8D Thumbs up, Last.fm! But yeah, I just haven't been listening to much music recently. Sorry to take it away from you, but I don't think beating me in play counts is much of an achievement at the moment. XDDD

They working you hard? I guess it's the whole hit the ground running thing. Mine would have been higher too, if I hadn't been offline for 2 months. Sigh!

That's so funny you should say that, I was thinking about that earlier today - it's lower than I would have pinned it. D: And I just noticed that we registered within three days of each other!!

happy 2nd week of the year! (?XD)I'm watching neither of those, don't really dig the drama-genre XD I really love moyashimon though, it's so cute and random, definitely the time-killing anime I like :P the hell called school starts tomorrow again for me :( blegh

I have another two weeks! My younger brother and sister go back in a couple of days - needless to say I'm getting dirty looks at home! How long has your holiday been, then? I've lost track. :B

Happy belated new year! xD It sounds like that party was a hit, haha. We never even went out like we planned, my sister got ill. Tch, timing!! Let me know if you have problems finding the single, I'll ask around too.

happy new year to you too rusto^^ had a good evening being the driver?

Umm, visunavi tells me there's the single Ten, which was released in August? 8D; But I don't have it, sorry! I'm just celebrating by going out to see a film with my family, and we'll probably just watch crap TV until midnight. Same as every year. :'D I wouldn't change a thing, really, ahaha. Are you usually out partying around this time?

I loved Disneyland too, when I went - I appreciated more than I did when I was younger, haha. I'm surprised it was so hot even at this time of year!! Speaking of which, no, no parties for me - I'll be lucky if I even see the new year in before I go to sleep. D: How about you, any big plans? (I never even considered the existence of spammers on SS... how weird.)

Welcome back!! Did you have fun? :D I'm doing well, thank you; more accurately, not doing anything at all, haha. Here's the ADAPTER. upload! http://www.megaupload.com/?d=MP902ZIL

It's a collaboration release. :D I'll share some if you like, it's rly good picopop music. Have a good flight! How long is that going to take? Well, Disney Land is worth it, even for us elderly (!?) people. But good call on leaving your laptop behind. As for me, I'm already bored at home. XD Time to wipe the dust off my PS and break out the sorely missed Final Fantasy games, me thinks.

We'll probably have the same time offline then, haha. Have fun in LA if I don't speak to you again before you go! Is it business or pleasure? ;D It's 4 weeks for me too. My first exam isn't until the 30th, but I'll go back a week before just in case (of what, I don't know).

I REALLY recommend looking for their best hits album (although I don't remember the title off the top of my head)! I should say, I'm going home tomorrow, so sorry if I drop communication for a couple of days while I get settled back in. xD;

Usually it would be later, but I've been shattered recently!! I'll go nocturnal over the holidays or something though. XD I wish I could pick up new bands so easily - I'm just not impressed with many atm. But there's usually a good release every week/fortnight that keeps me happy, so that's okay. :D At the moment it's the LUNA SEA cover album - have you heard it?

Well, yeah, it's 12.45, and I'm about to hit the hay. XD But I don't have class until 1pm tomorrow. What a waste of a day. As for no Internet, you'd be surprised how used to it we got. :U I actually got work done. Shocking. Umm, last thing I know D'espa released was the Spiral Staircase DVD, but then my finger is pretty removed from the pulse at this moment in time...!

I hear you about new releases - I haven't had Internet in my student house for 4 months, we just got it this week. :'D So I'm downloading stuff like crazy catching up with bands, haha. Here's the HPP! http://www.mediafire.com/?20i11t4i410

ah right, the sites. Tokyotosho.com , japandata.org, and gendou.com

because I know the one in the Netherlands with CQ and the candy spooky theater is canceled yeh, but not because of low ticketsales in the netherlands, but low ticketsales in Germany... and the one organizing this couldn't finance without the Germany gig.

you mean the one with kagrra, kra, SuG and stuff (JROCK invasion)? or the one with Calmando qual? (JMUSIC invasion)?

I don't know which ones I'll attend.. I know that girugamesh give great lives though. don't think I'll travel all the way for an cafe, and don't think for Dio either.. if only if they've had at least 1 date in the netherlands, I'll go for sure.. and you? any concerts for you lately?

My last class is this Friday at 9am, and then I'm home until Jan 20ish. \:D/ I guess the same as private schools is good...?! Maybe. And I'm with you - my birthday doesn't exist after turning 25! Speaking of new releases though, someone hooked me up with HPP's new release. Shall I pass on the link, or have you found it already? (Enjoy your 6 hours. XD I'd need about 10, especially in holidays!!)

Err... it's the Disney's Hercules film soundtrack. XDDDD I'm so hardcore. NoGod are really good - I'm not a fan of most new indies bands atm, but they're awesome. But what did you mean you'll be hearing from Deathgaze? :O Turning 21 will be really strange - but not as strange as 25. Oh, my youth, where for art thou!

I think not enough people bought tickets... but with the date they set, what do they expect. D; Oh, Japan. 2+ years is still good! And 20 is still young (I hope). ;D Rather, being around the scene for like 8 years makes me feel old, haha. Especially with all these whippersnappers getting in through Dir en grey/AnCafe. I wouldn't mind, if only they could pronounce the band members' names... D:!!

Also, I GREATLY approve of the lynch. you're listening to atm. XD

I think a friend thrust some Gackt songs under my nose, and I did my own exploring from there. But yes, I think Dir en grey were my first visual band too... umm, back when they were still visual, I mean. XD Ugh, I'm old. But it feels nice to have been around longer than everyone who only knows them post MOAB!! (To the comment below, I think they cancelled Jrock Invasion. D:)

Lol, you should know, 29th december, is Jrock-invasion in germany, with kagrra, alice nine, screw, SuG, kra. But I don't think I get the chance to see them T__T january is girugamesh in europe, february is ancafe in europe, february/march is dio in europe... they're so ruining it for everyone with so many concerts, and none of these bands are having even one date in the Netherlands =__=

do'nt you dare to insult hide O____o I'll fucking ban you!! coz I'm le uber bitch!!!! blablabla disney land? sounds fun... at least the rides there are more fun. ^^ as for school.. I'm biting my way through my last week of till holidays and school is fucking shitting me.. I'm going to work a lot during holidays.. I'm gonna need the money for 2008 I guess. the german is a girl btw XD she's Kalmia
