Somebody's not dressed properly for this occasion, but I'm not sure who :lol:

BTW: Does everyone filming not know who Mana is, or not care, or what? Seems like everything out there's pointed straight at Seth.
I think it's nice another member gets some attention, for once. Many MdM fans just seems to like Mana...and he's not doing it on his own (+I like Seth :P )

Mana's last blog:

---
When I got back to Japan I checked my emails and was even more surprised to have gotten a flood of several emails because the Moi dix Mois LIVE at KUBANA was supposed to be transmitted on the internet!!

Right from the start there were never any plans to stream it on the net, so its a mystery as to how that kind of misinformation got out.
Especially because if it was to be streamed it would have been announced officially.

However,
I think there were probably a lot of fans who were in front of their computers waiting and believing it would be transmitted, so I really feel bad.
---


... WTF! then why Kubana Festival post the info about the streaming just 15 minutes before the performance!? https://www.facebook.com/KubanaFest/pho ... 59/?type=1


So, What do you think? Personally, I think Mana not allowed the streaming and if you browse the Kubana festival website, there's any reference now to MdM, is the only band that dont have official pictures taken during their show :/ I think that Mana didn't know that the other shows were broadcasted.


PS: Is a really good opportunity to underground bands like MdM to broadcast their show in festivals because their fan base will grow and that means more money to the artist.

Yeah, God forbid I go to the festival's official website to find out official information about the festival :|

I am sure Mana has an ironclad contract about no video taping / live broadcasting with Kubana.

Can't really blame him bc it wasn't announced by the band.

I really like their performance! the sound! the voice! the guitar solo in Dead Scape and obviously Pendulum, sad the people who record turn the camera during the fan service xD

It was so funny look the wall of death with guys in swimming trunks and the drunks in the sand while our favourite artist plays metal :lol:

I like Hayato because I like him in other things as well (BLUE, Endless...) but since it is Mana's project and everyone else is technically support, it makes sense that Mana is usually the main focus in all official promotion ^^; But the other members do a very good job expressing Mana's vision, so it is nice to see them getting recognition well deserved recognition :)

So nice to know someone else likes him too. He was the one my heart went to when I saw them in Paris in 2007. And I liked him even more when I watched the DVD and noticed he sang along all through the live. He's tiny but he's a sweet guy. :)

I have a bunch of BLUE's CDs and there are some great older pictures of Hayato~ The first time I saw him live was at an ENDLESS concert and he got more applause than the members of the band (Shige and Tetsu are the only members; everyone else is support) and I think his drumming is better there than in M10M d(^___^) He plays consistent double bass in M10M and that fits the sound, but you can really hear him having fun and playing some really original beats in ENDLESS and BLUE :)

The best Hayato story I have was from the ENDLESS live where, during Shige's MC, he pulled out a digital camera and started taking pictures from his drumset, as well as some selfies of himself with the audience, unbeknownst to Shige. The audience started chuckling and finally Shige turned around to see what everyone was laughing at ::meev:: He was really excitable and never stopped smiling, it was great :cool:

I know none of his other bands, but I have no doubt he's great in them. And I'm not surprised he's not only very professional but fun also.

Somebody translated the blog he wrote during the European tour in 2007 and it was hilarious at times. He started the tour with a plaster jacket because he was involved in a car crash just before the tour started, and he was in bad shape and seriously aching, but as things improved he began enjoying himself a lot. His only problem was with the food, and Sugiya being drunk all the time.

Thanks a lot!

I guess it's not surprising that underground music doesn't sound so great outdoor though.

Sorry Mana, but someone record the show -> http://youtu.be/Rd_jgIgza0E
I'm loving the digital decagram glowing so brightly in the background :grin:
Mana looks sad. Not putting much energy into his performance. I feel bad for him.
I don't understand why they didn't play more songs from D+Sect. Very cool seeing Je l'aime live though :D

Actually this is one of the best set lists they had played.
