Now that I slept enough I can tell my
own experience ^^
My husband and me came from Paris to see deg live, it was tiring due to
night train, hot weather and stuff.
We arrived around 5pm in front of the Columbia halle, many people were
already waiting, some were here since the day before o_O
I was a bit surprised at everyone's attitude, I mean, all those people
staring each other with scorn...
I was expecting all fans to be happy to be there and share it all
together,
but it was more like who would get the best place, who had the best
cosplay...
At a moment, a guy climbed a tree and attached a "FRANCE" flag to it lol
You could hear all french fans scream ^^
When they opened the doors, it took hours to get in, and each time we
could make some steps to the doors, some people thought it was a good idea to push everyone. 2 people fainted and had to be picked up by the emergency staff.
We were close to 2 french girls so we talked and waited together.
They told us they saw the band arrive and go out of their minibus, and Die came out of the halle later to smoke a cigarette (aaaarg).
When we 4 were close to the door, 2 german goth girls began to make some problems pushing everyone, they came from the left side and were almost at the end of the queue but manage to gain some places by pushing and pushing, so they arrived next to us, and made some more steps by pushing hard again and were finally in front of us. When they almost were in, they began to push the 2 french girls backward, and as I was standing behind, I almost fell from the stairs. They said one of the french girl pushed them but she didn't even touched them. They did that 4 times and when the french girl told one of them she didn't touch her and that she should stop pushing, one of the goth girls looked at us and began to make racist comments.
Once we were in, we understood that the heat outside was nothing compared to the heat inside!
The concert began and everyone screamed, I was so happy to see them
finally !
I am not tall so I didn't see anything, so my husband and me decided to go upstairs, and we found places at the balcony right face to the scene, so I could appreciate the live even more ! And hopefully the heat was not so unbearable there.
They all 5 were so gorgeous ! I was amazed to see them, it was like in a
dream !
They played some songs, stopped (to let open doors and let the air come
in), came back, and they made it 4 times ^^
Here are the songs they played, I am only sure for the beginning, after
I'm not really sure, I just can tell they played these songs, not the real
order
:
Merciless Cult
C
Saku
Kodoku ni shisu, yueni kodoku
Jesus Christ R'n R
Machiavellism
Dead tree
The final
Spilled Milk
Kodou
Audience killer loop
The 3rd empire
Increase blue
Shokubeni
Obscure
Mr. Newsman
Child Prey

Many people sang during the songs, and when the band noticed that we knew the songs, they began to play with the public, at the beginning they were a bit shy but after that they smiled a lot to their fans.
At the end, Kyo even sent kisses to the public, and they all threw
something, Kaoru his picks that he kissed before throwing them, Shinya his sticks, Kyo his towel, Die threw picks too and Toshiya too, and they also threw a lot of water bottles.
Many people fought to catch something.
The way back, in bus, was awful because we were with a full bus of
fangirls, sometimes I wonder if they came for the music or the guys only -_-
I'll be there in Paris to see them again !
Without the long waiting as I live there, and without a huge travel before
and after, I think I'll be more able to appreciate the live ^^
Hope it won't be as hot !
A big bad point to most of the fans there that were totally unrespectful,
stealing places, kicking and pushing, and even hitting others.
I've never seen that, though I've been to huger lives, even with metal
bands the public has never been so mean to each other.
A french fan has even gotten a fist in the face -_-
A big good point to the staff that made a great job evacuating people that
fainted and spreading water on the first ranks.
Have to say it, I'll never go to a live in Germany anymore.
