^-^ I did win a slot on the Dinner with Hayato of Duel Jewel in Feb at Katsucon. If Anyone has any questions for him post them here an dI will ask him for you at the dinner. These questions can range from Music question to personal questions.
some exsamples: We asked Yura-sama what kind of women he likes. We asked despairsRay a lot of rated XXX questions. We also asked Hobbies and about pets.
Pretty much anything is up for grabs. I can not garuntee a private rated XXX question will get answered but there is a possibility it will be. SO post away with your questions ^-^
I am also going to be bidding on dinner with teh second member when ever they announce who it is.
edit: I have the second Dinner as well ^-^ So I will have lots of information! YAY!

I tend to go blank to and just kinda stare at them in all their awesomeness =^_^= but finding out hobbies is good and maybe find out what types of American things to like: food and whatnot...that's always kinda cool to find out.

oo yeah that would be good. ^-^ My friend Adi told me one member of Duel Jewel stalked an american voice actress when they were here in 2002 at a convention ^-^;; he waited for her out side of her hotel room and went to all her panels.

I'm not all about stalking people, that's just too creepy and the last thing I want to do, but Lord knows when I met a partlicular voice actor when we were sitting there together he just focused on me, and it seemed more like a first date than a dinner thingy, I was not only overjoyed but have a new friend because of it =^_^=
Anyway...another good question is to find out if they plan on recording for American companies like Geneon and Tofu Records (if they haven't already). Finding out what else they plan on doing in American industries, music (obviously), film maybe commercials or opening for other popular J-bands in America?

If they do anything in america it would be through Jhouserock Inc. That is their American company. the same ones who are bringing us Dir en Grey's CDs ^-^ even if it is just through Hot Topic. But yes yes very good questions ^-^ I will write these all down

Cool, I didn't know Jhouserock did Dir en Grey also, but worth something to look into on my end. I help Tofu do some Northwest promotions, maybe I can do Jrockhouse too...hmmmm *ponders* but yeah I'll keep thinking of questions ^_^

Jhouserock doesnt have a street team they just have different groups. Dir en Grey is through their side company free-will-america.com I dont remeber the girle name who runs it... in all Jhouserock has Jhouserock Inc, Free Will, Jpophouse, Anime Pavillion (I think.. I dont remeber) and another company they use.. Free Will does mainly Dir en Grey and 12012 and more of teh hard rock groups. Jhouse does more Visual Kei like PLC. they will bring the band if they can. they are really nice people.

You know...I had to read that post like three times, and I'm still not sure I get it  I am a retailer for Jpophouse, so maybe that's a doorway. I'm good at that sort of thing, but I think that some of those band names need to be changed to something more...normal LOL |

ah well I meant Jpophouse doesnt do promotions. At least not that I know of. They do most of the stuff themselves.
Visual Kei - Sub category of Japanese Rock that is designed around elaborate costumes.
bands most known: Pycho le Cemu, Dir en Grey (Not any more though), Phantasmagorea, DespairsRay
Oshare Kei - Bright colorful outfits
Sample of bands: An Cafe, Love Can
Both styles of bands are just in Japan though Visual Kei is slowly makeing its way into the new age music in america. A good band in america that is borderline visual kei is 30 Seconds to Mars
hahha yeah some of the band names are weid to un but they sorta make sence. Psycho le Cemu (PLC) is the combination of the first couple letters of the bands each member was in before PLC. Dir en Grey is "The Grey" in german. I dont think they are as weird as some of the american bands name wise ^-^;;

Yeah...American bands are pretty weird too...and in more ways than one. Which is why I don't keep track of them either.
I guess another question to ask is...any tours coming to the westside of the country? *ahem*
