This was intense! I am a fan since 2002...born and raised in Germany I was always scared s*** less to go into huge crowds. I had tickets before...a show in Germany. I am sure it would have been half as full as it was this time but I could not make it. I was sweating...shaking like a darn leaf.

Anyways, 2010...September 4th. I finally MADE myself go. It was not as packed as I thought it would be and I was so very close. Dir en grey was incredible. I must say that I had infected lymph nodes that weekend and went to the ER the next day...nothing could stop me! Once I had to go out...I was too overwhelmed. I might sound like one of those groupies though I am a mommy and this was the day of my life! (next to getting married and having kids...<3).
Friendly...sexy and dang cellos hit me right into my soul. "Beautiful" and "Sacra" made me cry though I am not one to lose tears.
For those who say 7th Symphony is too vocal or Apocalyptica changed to make money. Screw yourself...clean your ears and listen.
I didn't get the chance to meet the band though I would not know what to say/do anyways. What is everyday life for the four guys is my soul food, my head ache remover, my "I want to yell at my kids" healer....
Perttu played with all of his inside. Eicca=animal...that's all I can say, Paavo...just a handsome look at that plays like there is no tomorrow, he seems to love to "control" the crowd. Mikko, I have never seen a better drummer..wtf this guy is insane.
All in all I want to thank Apocalyptica for being able to make me fight my fears. I was well worth it.

Incredible, intense...sexy!
