- Question:Please add a push camera! (multi-angle)
Die: At this live ( Meguro Rock-May-Kan )even Shinya’s camera couldn’t move, so having multi-angle option/push camera is a bit out of reach. He got very angry.
Fujieda: Shinya? (laughs)
Die: Yes, there wasn’t drum stand either so it was like “This live screening is cancelledーーー！！！
Fujieda: When he gets mad, he starts speaking in Kansai-ben (laughs)
Die: He doesn´t like Kansai-ben, like he usually tries to not talk in it. He is the only one from Osaka, though. Do you think Kansai-dialect is the same everywhere in Kansai? It depends on the localization.
Fujieda: I’m from Tokyo, so I don’t know the differences…
Die: Kaoru’s and Kyo’s are a bit different. Kyoto-ben is really beautiful. Hyogo-ben is the most vulgar one.
Die: Did you start using Kansai-ben because of us?
Fujieda: As I’m using polite language here, it’s ok but when I was in a band as they were from Kansai, I really started using it! You didn’t, right Toshiya?
Toshiya: It’s stubbornness/pride.
Fujieda: Even if you are stubborn, you are trying not to use it….

Fujieda says he saw Dir en grey for the first time at the time of Vulgar. He got a general ticket so he had to watch them from a seat at the back on the second floor. As he wanted to see them closer, he joined the fanclub. His membership number was around 19777.
Die: Are you still renewing it?
Fujieda: It expired! They told me to re-enter. Will I get a fc magazine if I do that?
Takabayashi: You will, you will
Fujieda: I’m writing a lot there though (laughs)
Die: I think my membership number is 3?
Fujieda: Eh? You are a member of the fanclub?
Die: I think the president (DYNAMMITE TOMMY) is number 1.
Toshiya: Yes, Die is number 3 and I think I’m number 4. The company holds number 0.
Die: I will renewal it!
Fujieda: Is that so? Will you receive the fanclub magazine?
Die: I do, I do. I read Dr Nemunemu (Shinya’s section)
—–
Fujieda: What are you doing between the first and second parts?
Die:I am … meditation, maybe
Fujieda: Meditation…
Die: Did it look as if I were sleeping? Because I wasn’t.
Fujieda. You were lying down in the sofa, and as you hung up your jacket I thought you were having a good sleep.
Die: I wasn’t sleeping, I wasn’t sleeping. I wasn’t.
Fujieda: I didn’t say anything (laughs)
–
They talk about when Dir started playing at overseas festivals. It seems that as soon as they started playing, people started to throw plastic bottles at them and they got soaked. If one song was a medium tempo song, a lot of bottles would flew to them, crushed cans and even they got hit by stones.
Die: When we did the opening act for LINKIN PARK (2007), the guy in the front was always looking at his cellphone … it felt like he wasn’t having fun? At that time, people who liked western music were like “I’m not interested in Japanese bands at all”, that kind of thing.
(–)
Die: At our overseas baptism, we got lot of things thrown at us. Once a bra came flying. It was a big one.
Fujieda: Eh? Did that person take it off and threw it? That person….how are you going to go back home ?
Die: Bra-less?
Die:* Thinking hard* The first one I met was Kaoru. He was in another band. We both were playing in different bands. He was good at that time. Like, at some point he was setting up the equipment and he was doing it well. The next one….would be Shinya? He was at another band but I didn’t know about his existence at that time.
Fujieda: You didn’t know?
Die: No, it was at a narrow place. I think Kyo was doing his hair at the washstand? I passed behind him. Kyo told me to talk later but I thought he was just being polite, so I went home. The next time I met him he asked me “Why did you go home?”. At that time, Kyo wasn’t playing in any band, he was free. We were taking at the emergency stairs and I told him “Why don’t you join our band?”
Fujieda: I heard it was like….when you saw the flyer….”This person!”
Die: “At that time, it ( the flyer)was black and white and the image quality was poor …I didn’t know who was who. At that time, there were many flyers stuck on the wall. Toshiya….where was it?…”
Toshiya: Wasn’t it at Sugamo? At a coffee shop in Sugamo.
Die: No, it wasn’t there. Didn’t we met somewhere at Gio?
Toshiya: Ichikawa? Could be…
Die: After that, I met you at coffee shop in Sugamo with Kyo. It was a coffee shop? Not a cafe….at that time….you were living in Tokyo, right?
Toshiya: Yes, I was.
Die: We’re still in Osaka, and we didn’t know about Tokyo, so we didn’t know about Sugamo. We got on the train at Yamanote line, but at the opposite direction. When I asked Kyo if we were going in the opposite direction, he said “maybe”. We were like “this direction is wrong” and got off. We went to a coffee shop in Sugamo.
Fujieda: Why at Sugamo? Did you live there?
Toshiya: I didn’t. I lived nearby so it was just right for me…
—-
Fujieda: Are there any young V-kei bands you are interested in?
Die: I would say….”Kizu”
Fujieda: Ah, thank you!
Die: Why?
Fujieda: Because they are part of our company (label)
Die: Oh
Question: Is there something that you like to do on a rainy day?
Toshiya: Nothing. I don’t hate rain I just don’t go out.
Die: Rain might be the thing that I hate the most. The humidity….because humidity is bad for my hair.
Fujieda: Oh, I understand that!
Die: Eh? You do?
Fujieda: I do….because…. I have curly hair…
Die: Oh…
—–
Takabayashi: Do you want to wear the outfits of other members?
Die: Mmm…..
Toshiya and Fujieda laughs.
Die: Why are you laughing?
Fujieda: Do you want to wear Toshiya’s outfit?
Talking about JEALOUS
Die: Do you remember the recording of it?
Toshiya: It was at a private house, right?
Die: At that time, we lived in Tokyo, but we did the recording at Osaka. Kaoru, Kyo and me did the recording in a place that was like a house studio. There were houses around it and you could hear the dogs and the crows in the evening. When Kyo was singing, the dogs started to bark, that’s why we had to wait for the dogs to stop barking. The engineer’s body was big, so we were like “Can you check the sound? We can’t hear it though its going on” His body was so big that we couldn’t hear it because he was blocking the sound of the speakers. Kaoru was trying to hear it while moving left and right, but he couldn’t. We were doing it for two days but I got fever. I lied down, putting a futon on the tatami floor. Well, it was someone’s house. When I lied down and slept….there was a portrait of deceased person in front of me. I didn’t know who that person was. But as there was a portrait of a deceased person….I’d would say that as there was that….I thought my fever wouldn’t cool down.

Toshiya is looking at the questionnaire and starts giggling suddenly and shows it to Die. Die burst out laughing. Toshiya also laughs. Fujieda urges Toshiya to read it but he hands it over to Die to read it.
Die: The content of the questionnaire is pretty good, but someone wrote that their favourite song is…”son-shi…..budosorou”….it’s a new song or a song by another…. DIR EN GERI…. I mentioned about the FILTH mistake…. DIR EN GERI….I bought the magazine.
Fujieda: It’s like a jagged 10 yen coin. Something very rare.
Die: Should we rename the band? Should we change the name even though the band was formed 24 years ago?
Die: At this live ( Meguro Rock-May-Kan )even Shinya’s camera couldn’t move, so having multi-angle option/push camera is a bit out of reach. He got very angry.
Fujieda: Shinya? (laughs)
Die: Yes, there wasn’t drum stand either so it was like “This live screening is cancelledーーー！！！

Die: I didn’t. The drums. If you play in another band, everyone will get along with you….Kyo….was it at a toilet?
Fujieda: Toilets are a common place among men. You were side by side?
—-
Die: Mmmm…..but just because we are the same….like size and so. Can you wear it? Could we exchange them? Should I lend you a red suit? The oMeguro Rock-May-Kan one? Time ago, as I am good friends with Noisy from SEX MACHINEGUNS, he told me he would lend me a costume and he did. He lend me the costume for JEALOUS but as I’m tall, I was dragging the hem of the trousers. It was dragging while I was playing.
