Why Rock Band?
Since its original release, the video game Rock Band has sold over 17 million units. In its earliest days, it boasted a modest 300+ songs. Available DLC (downloadable content) of songs now exceeds 3,000. To date, music is released weekly on the Rock Band Network and through its standard gaming updates. What’s this mean?
If you don’t have the patience to hang out by...

Dir en grey vs B'z: pick your side
A couple of weeks ago, I was looking at the “most requested artists of all time” on the Rock Band dashboard, an app on Facebook. Dir en grey was listed as #420 at the time. After asking around to some other Dir fans, they jumped to #313 most requested in a week. In another two days, #166. The “problem”?
One of my friends is a B’z fan and had the same idea of upping...

Dir en grey m/g at House of Blues, Sunset Strip,...

Did not happen that way.
When Dir en grey announced their tour dates this year, I said we could either take them along or try and make it back for...

An epic adventure and 3,000 miles
Our epic adventure begins here in Denver, Colorado. In the week before Dir en grey played the Bluebird Theatre on December 20th, our sticker (and then flier) campaign got underway. Before we go into that, let’s talk about some of the players on our wild ride. Of course, I was there. I didn’t even have to drive much *heh*. The names of some of our people are:
