According to her, the set lists on the first, second and fourth of July resemble the above. In the performance of "trick," a staple from the start of the lives, the
members take turns to sing, resulting in the rotation of their instruments amongst them as well. Hyde sings first, then Tetsu, Ken, and Yukihiro.
Apparently, on the 29th, Hyde made a mistake in the performance of "HEAVEN'S DRIVE," stopping its performance.
He blamed it on a lack of rehearsal for the song due to the concentration on "trick." Before the encore of "Niji," feathers fell on the stage.
L'Arc~en~Ciel will apparently announce plans for their future on the sixth, the last Shibuya live. The general consensus seems to be good news, either plans for future concerts or a new single.
From what I've been reading, it sounds positive. There's a good rapport between the members in their current lives, and that's always a good sign. I think a new single is jumping the gun, however, and I'll settle for news on
them in the recording studio instead because that promises a more solid outcome.
25: L'Arc~en~Ciel perform for their fan club, LE-CIEL (Venue:Akasaka Blitz/Time:19:00). The concert, titled "LE-CIEL PRESENTS L'Arc-en-Ciel Akasaka Zero day," was attended by 2,270 lucky
fan club members. According to their official site, their last live together was on December 6, 2000, so it's been 930 days since they've performed together.
Recently, rumors surfaced that L'Arc~en~Ciel would release a new single sometime next month. Although this is not
true, what I was told was that the band's best albums would be released here in the US next year. Since the members seem
too busy with their solos, I don't think we can expect anything new from them as "L'Arc~en~Ciel" anytime soon.
Why is it that only Tetsu-related news gets put up in the L'Arc~en~Ciel official site? Apparently, the latest news on "L'Arc~en~Ciel"
is that TETSU69's K-SWISS logo-copying record label, "SPROUSE," is going to hold a summer concert, titled "MAGNETIC LEVITATION 2003 SUMMER," on August 19 featuring all the artists under said
logo-copying record label. Aside from His Highness, the acts include winnie, Sepa, and tae.
Ticket sales start on July 6 and prices at Yen 4,500.
09: TETSU69 official mobile site, "SUNSHINE69," opens.
Once I fix the members' pages, TETSU69-related news will be transferred to its appropriate place.
04: Hyde releases a new single, "HELLO." Congratulations! It went straight to number one in the Oricon charts. I don't mind this song, but the coupling is mediocre. Once I fix the
members' pages, this piece of news will be transferred to its appropriate place. |
