What do you do when you feel down?
Shinya: I would read DRAGON FLY again.
Subject: To Toshiya-san
I play the bass but when a song that is fast and changes strings, I could barely play well… I think it’s all up to practice but please tell me if you have a trick or an advice to play better.
Toshiya: Try playing it perfectly in a very relaxed tempo. Then, slowly try to up the tempo…Do your best!
Subject: To Die-san
I really love curry but do you have a favorite curry shop or way of eating curry?
Die: Turban Curry. The L-set (combo meal)
Subject: To Kaoru-san
I think you wear the purple or red shoes a lot lately but can you tell use the brand or who made them?
Kaoru: I wonder where? Please try searching for it.
Subject: To Kyo-san
Why do people only notice things once they are gone? At night, I am scared of that stupid me.
Kyo: Everyone is like that too.
Translator’s Notes: Shinya is referring to their old photobook titled “DRAGON FLY”. Die’s curry place is right here http://turbancurry.web.infoseek.co.jp/

Recently
The hustle and bustle is finally quieting down and while Kyo is taking care of his throat the members are the same as always.
The members other than Kyo have gathered several times and they are working on something.
Along with work the members are also working on the FC newsletter so I am receiving a whole mountain load of drafs to check (laughs)
Even if it's not that much but I would like to give an update soon.

Please tell us about a recent scary experience if you have any!
Shinya: The following day after a very strong windy day, my sandals which were on the balcony warped to the person's balcony one floor below me. And then on the next day, those sandals also disappeared from there.
Subject: Toshiya-san
Is there a needed muscle training in order to play bass?
Toshiya: Ultimately it's not just grip strength but the whole body.
Subject: To Die-san
I just thought of this now but what does Die-san wash first once you are in the tub?
Die: Bathtub
Subject: To Kaoru-san
Do you still hate shrimp until now? Also is there anything that you are recently addicted to?
Kaoru: Regarding shrimps, due to recent circumstances I had to eat it but spat it out. I want to eat "Hokutetsu Restaurant Himi Beef Curry" a retort curry sold at the Hokuriku Expressway Service Area again!
Subject: To Kyo-san
Are there words you would like to tell fans who come to the lives?
Kyo: Words that I always say during lives
Translator's Notes:
Retort curry is cooked curry which has been put into a perfectly-sealed bag after retort treatment.

An Important Message
The information is also in the official site but due to Kyo's suffering from a vocal cord nodule,
we had no choice but to unfortunately cancel the North America tour this March and April.
He has been consulting with a doctor in recent years but
it has come to this point and the doctor has ordered him to stop.
It is unfortunate but it was decided on in order to be able to go on stage and
do recording in the future, I hope that you will understand.
In fact, he just went to the hospital.
He intends to undergo the best possible treatment for his throat.
Of course he wouldn't be "trying anything" but would be progressing forward cautiously.
Currently he can't talk due to the treatment but,
it is not a hindrance to his daily life so there is no need to worry.
I am not sure how long it will take until he would recover but,
he is also consulting with the members and will do what he can.
We've made all of you who understand DIR EN GREY the best worry but,
I hope that you could wait for a while until they come back on stage.
