D'espairs Ray Concert in Budapest 29th of September 2010

 As promised in this post,here is the report of the Budapest gig. It's image/video and (mostly) fangirling heavy.

 We arrived at the Disel club in Budapest around 11.00 or something, parked and got into the line (it was quite long considered it was only 11 in the morning and it was school day in Budapest). Non the less we lined up and started signing the banners fans made. I'm not sure about how long we stood in line before two female D'espairs Ray staff came and later on their RED CAR tour bus came. It took the driver good 20 minutes to take the bus to it's parking lot (Disel is located in a park or smth and the road isn't actually a highway xD).
  

 We took pictures in front of the bus (while the driver was still trying to park it and one of the security guys told us to step away from the bus, since we were standing against it xD) and then waited for the members to start getting out of the bus. It took about 20 min to half an hour for Zero to get out, sadly we were behind their backs when they came from the bus and they only waved to the fans on the other side. Next coming down was Hizumi with his heat on and Tsukasa (he is the one on the picture) followed shortly after. Karyu was taking his time tho (I didn't see him getting down the bus, coz my feet hurt from standing xD).
 

 Returning back to the line (a friend stayed in line so we wouldn't lost our place in line) we were pushed back by some Hungarian fans that intruded the line (the part of lining up was, in my opinion, poorly organized by the clubs stuff, since there was only one fences but in the path to the clubs "yard" or something in front of the staircase leading up to the entrance and not in the yard itself, thus Hungarian fans keep intruding the line there even if they came later than their friends in front. Of course we and some Croatian fans tried to intruded it too and then clubs stuff said they won't let us in if we don't move back, but nothing was said to the Hungarian fans). We moved back but few stayed at the front and I joined them too (hey, I'm not British I don't do lines XD). While waiting Clea wrote Zero on my chest (with red, capital letters) and Karyu's name on Nika's chest xD. Later two D'espairs Ray official stuff came and took pic of the crowd and I asked if we could take pictures with them (I spoke Japanese with the female member and she was the one taking pictures of us and male stuff member) 

  

We stood in line for good 10 hours and at 6 o'clock they let us into the club (about 15 minutes before we put all of our stuff into the van and I was standing in line in a corset). Getting in my friend and I went to left side of the stage (Zero's side xD), we were in 3rd of 4th row. It was still about two hours before the gig (waiting is agonizing!). While waiting we started yelling Despa, Despa ... (some of the fans really didn't/don't get the whole concept of a rock concert-> it didn't /doesn't matter if it was still 2 hours before the concert we yelled Despa to get them and us into the mood and also all the pushing, "fighting" is part of all the rock concert. IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT GO TO OPERA FOR GOD'S SAKE).

 After agonizing waiting, the lights went dim and D'espairs Ray members came out (the whole place went crazy). They took their places and lights turned on on stage and OMFG ZERO IS GORGEOUS <3<3<3 (I was standing directly under his part of stage and when the lights turned on stage I had a perfect view).

When they started playing me and my friend formed a heart with our hands and Zero saw it, he nodded and smirked. AND OMFG HE HAS TO DIE FOR SMIRK (it's so pervy *licks lips*) AND THEN HE RAN HIS TONGUE OVER HIS UPPER LIP. IT WAS ORGASMIC!!! He looks so innocent and shy in every comment but he really isn't xD. He has wrinkles around his mouth when he smirks or smiles (kind of like GazettE's Kai's dimples just less visible).

I really didn't look at any other member but Zero, if they didn't come to left side of the stage. I didn't see Tsukasa clearly since he was in a fog of light all the time (he said it was foggy too in his blog entry), but DAMN HE HAS NICE ARMS <3 (I dare to say better than Reita's). I really liked how Zero and Karyu ran from one side of the stage to another for all fans to see as much as possible.

 When they played Death Point (I LOVE THIS SONG SO MUCH <3) I went crazy and in all that euphoria managed to get Clea (I was kind of in charge of her safety xD) and myself into the second line ( right next to the speaker) and even better view of Zero <3. Zero kept coming onto the platform that was an extension of the stage on his side and mouthing MOTTO (more) to the fans and of course we screamed even louder. He kept smirking and running his tongue over his upper lip and the more he was getting sweaty the HOTTER all that get (he was looking trough his sweaty bangs, running his tongue over his upper lip, smirking. Hot, too hot. Can't forget his sweaty chest that were visible, he wore a shirt with low cut neck line <3). He "spat" his picks into the crowed, played his bass on that platform and on top of the speaker. He stood on top of the speaker with his arms spread out, like a god (he's my new god xD). 

Karyu came to our side of the stage too and played on that platform and on top of the speaker as well, he went so teasingly close, but we couldn't reach him ( he has really nice teeth and ass; he wore really tight pants xD, Zero wore pants but had something like a skirt around on his front). As said before I couldn't see Tsukasa clearly, only his arms and hair xD. I really loved Hizumi's outfit for the gig he had red baggy pants and long black vest that shows his chest (and what nice chest he has <3, especially if they are glistering with sweat <3 ) and everybody could see his groin trough his baggy pants *giggles* (he was either very generously gifted by mother nature or European stereotypes about Japanese and length is wrong xD). When Hizumi came to the platform I noticed he has facial hair (didn't noticed it before lol).

 It was only after few songs when a bottle of water came to me and I grabbed it, since I was thirsty and drank some then passed it to my friend and after she purred it down on us (it was only after the concert that Clea told me it was actually Hizumi's bottle we drank from. OMFG I HAD AN INDIRECT KISS WITH HIZUMI). 

The sound was very good and so was the atmosphere (some fans complained about pushing and fighting and security guys doing nothing about it. IT WAS A FUCKIN' ROCK CONCERT, WHAT DID YOU EXPECT? O.o). Hizumi's voice sounded really good and I really, really hope he will get better after the hiatsu (please say a prayer to god or what ever supernatural force you believe in for Hizumi, because it'd be a shame if he had to stop doing something he loves and clearly enjoys doing). Hizumi had two or three speeches during the main part of the gig, but I didn't understand a thing he was saying (he had text written in English and was reading it xD).

After one of his bass solos Zero put his bass up right (like Saga does before he licks it) and ran his hand up and down it's neck slowly, while looking at the crowd trough his sweaty bangs and pervy smile on his lips. HE IS A PERVERT!

 When the main part was over (I think it was after the main part, I was in a dase so please excuse me if I'm wrong)water was spat onto the crowd and bottles were thrown into the crowd as well. Zero got on top of the speaker, after putting his bass away and sat down on top of the speaker, watching us going crazy under him. He drank some water before he start spiting it on the crowd. He came closer to the edge of the speaker and fans were able to touch him. I TOUCHED HIS HAND, KNEE AND THIGH (I still remember the feel of the texture of his pants xD) AND THE SIDE OF HIS FACE (at that moment I blessed my 179cm plus 3 cm from my army boot, because I was tall enough to touch the side of his face. I WILL NEVER WASH THAT PAIR OF ARM WARMERS AGAIN!!!). He looked into my and Clea's direction (we were standing right under him, pressed up against the speakers) and he spat a WHOLE MOUTHFUL OF WATER ONTO MY FACE AND CLEAVAGE (I don't know how much of my red ZERO sign Clea had written onto my chest, was still visible at the time, but I guess enough for him to read it and for me and Clea to get a mouthful of water spat directly on us <3<3<3. MY INDIRECT KISS WITH ZERO; I got quite a lot of water onto my face, thus my lips and naturally I licked them xD) I won't ever forget his eyes right before he spat water <3<3<3, such dark and playful eyes *fans self*). Then he threw his bottle into the crowd. 

There was a short pause before the encore and we were screaming ENCORE and DESPA. They played 4 songs (view the list above). And after the last song, Hizumi got a banner fans made (I spotted my signature on it *yay*) and warped it around himself and then let fans touch him, he came to the platform on our side and I touched his shoulder and hand. It was so obvious from his smile he likes it a lot when fans touch him xD. Karyu also came around and I touched his arm. Tsuakasa was oh so cool getting of stage, he stood up from behind his drums and throw his drumstick into the crowd (some fans were fighting for it even after the concert), drank some water and spat it onto himself (or so ppl from the right side of the stage said) before throwing the bottle into the crowd, then he waved to the crowd and as a polite Japanese he is, bowed and smiled and got off the stage. HE IS SOOOO COOL!.

When the main lights turned on Clea, myself and some other fans looked at the floor for Zero's picks, since it's hard to catch one and I've seen one fall down right beside the speaker. AND I FOUND IT. I HAS ZERO PICK <3. 

I bought a poster for myself (now I wish I'd have bough the T-shirt as well =/) and hoodies for Clea, Helena and Denis (I'm good at intruding lines and making my way trough crowds ^-^. Hey I grow up listening to punk, what did you expect? Lol). Getting to our van we changed clothes and drove home, made a stop at one McDonald's for juice and then drove two hours around Budapest to find another one to get some food xD). I got home at 6.00 in the morning, went to bed at 7.30 and only slept for like 3 or 4 hours.

My tickets or what was left of it after being in my cleavage for 3 hours and Zero's pick and a poster. 
 

It was amazing concert, energy was good and the bend was really into it. They all sounded awesome and even if I'm still a bit sore from jumping and head-banning and have scratches on my arm and back it was worth it. I hope I'll be able to see them again soon.  Thank you D'espairs Ray! 


Special thanks to Denis for organizing everything and taking (loads of) pictures, Helena for being like a mum to the rest of us, Clea for screaming and fangirling and what not on and after the concert, Aku for convincing me to go and fangirling on the concert and thank you Ela and Nika for berg there and sharing your fangirling over Karyu with us after the concert. <3! We should definitely do it again!

P.S.: Sorry it took so long for me to write this, but I was tired and only got a good grasp of everything today after a good night sleep:3 and excuse me any grammar or spelling mistakes ^_^
