Vinushka: Feelings of Guilt and Sin

Welcome to Vinushka.net

Vinushka.net was created in 2009 in order to give people one non-networking site to find all things Dir en grey related. Over the years, I've been told time and again by local fans that they don't have things like facebook, twitter, myspace, and livejournal. Many have expressed their inherent dislike for such places. There was a need for one place that could give them the news and the photos they craved without the social networking portion of it. And from that sprang vinushka.net!

Our gallery allows registered users to upload their own photos and graphics. Please ensure you click into a subcategory before you click the Upload a Photo option, so that it goes into the correct category.

Please note that because of a crash in 2011, we lost all data on the site and we have had to rebuild from the ground up. Some things may be in the wrong folders and some things may also not actually be band member images at all. If you would please nicely point out these errors in a comment on said photos, we'd appreciate it. But please also realize we are not putting them in the wrong places on purpose. We have uploaded in bulk and mistakes will inevitably be made in such a situation. We'd love your help, just so long as it's phrased in a nice and helping way rather than a demeaning and rude fashion. Thank you and have a wonderful day!

Kyo Hospitalized following May 16th Show

Vocalist Kyo (age unknown) of the popular Rock band Dir en grey was taken to a Tokyo hospital after the show at Shinkiba Studio Coast on the 16th of May, complaining of the bad condition of his throat. He was diagnosed with tonsillitis, but since his fever which was over 40C didn't sink, he is still under medical treatment. Show on the 24th will likely be cancelled (literally it says that he is refraining from performing on the 24th at Shibuya Kokaido hall.. guess that means cancellation..?).
Translation by Takowasara from original article here.

Kyo Official Site

So it seems that none other than Kyo has created a site for his poems, photos, art, and other expressions. It was announced at the live last night according to a few different sources. (We will let you know when it is official for sure!)

Message(s) from Kyo

Message 1: [From Line]

今日、国際フォーラムお疲れ様です。

ツアーが終わってしまいました。

今回喉の不調で皆に心配かけたり迷惑かけました、その分何かを返せればいいなと思い、露出を増やしたんですが… 少しは何かを返せたかな？

来年のツアーで逢える事、純粋に楽しみにしてます。

その前にプライベート、バンドも、もっと大きく自分自身を越えていければなあと思ってます。

因みに僕は半年も同じ夢で同じ人に逢う夢を観ています。

皆は後悔の無い人生を。

京

Message 2: From Concert on 12/25

"I'm sorry I worried you guys. See you next year!

News about Kyo!

According to attendees of a recent A-KNOT meeting held in Japan, Kyo is beginning to sing again. Months after the band cancelled tours and went on hiatus due to the frontman's health complications, Kyo underwent microsurgery and is slowly easing back into his trade while the rest of the band has worked on individual projects and have reportedly been crafting new songs.

Inoue and Takabayashi Masuda spoke as representatives of the band at the A-KNOT meeting and will hopefully continue to disclose Kyo's progress as the band steps towards their (potential) much-awaited return.

Let's all work hard for this week too OK!! [STAFF: R_jp] - From Official Facebook
