Dripping insanity into quiet into goddess is unbelievable but they never release this stuff unless it’s real special, they would’ve announced it a a while ago I think
Idk if I even want to see it. I for one know I’ll be crying like a baby watching this show if they release it. I always loved Reita, thought he was so cool growing up and he inspired me to pick up bass before I dropped it and Koichi (yes trembling Bambi) inspired me to pick it back up. BUCK-TICK’s shows since Atsushi died are lifeless compared to when he was alive, I know he was the face of the band and the singer so it’s kinda different but yeah. We’ll never have Reita hyping up the crowd for the encore and doing a bass and drum solo with Kai ever again and it breaks my heart.
But that would mean you’ll never watch any show again, directly or recorded. That’s a way to handle things and it’s alright, if you feel better that way (there’s a reason why I barely watch any lives at all), but that won’t change in the future.
If it gets recorded and you decide to watch it one day you’ll get to see Kai hugging Reita’s amp twice according to what people who attended have been telling.
i personally cannot watch bands’ performances once a member has died. after the one-two punch of daisuke and then isshi way back when, i decided listening to the music was quite enough. i can’t watch because it’s too damn sad and i am a wimp
it took me 10 years to work up the courage to watch kagrra,'s last live. I would just watch their older stuff over and over. I still haven’t watched the final song of that live because I just can’t
they’re probably using it as a rehearsal opportunity before releasing the album later, and doing a proper several months long album tour run like they used to do in the past.
As someone who got into Kagrra only so many years after his passing, everything I read, and new things I come across that I haven’t seen or watched before breaks my heart anew, so I totally understand. Absolutely crushed listening to the solo songs released after his death, nearly cried in public. I still will probably need to work up the courage to listen to those again sometime.
I’ll probably need to pull up the Gazette’s former drummer Yune’s final work with More, as well…
I have no idea how the afterlife would work, but I hope they’re all in a good place with Reita, if it works that way.
