I decided to give them another shot and I watched the Immortal Love video. ARG, why couldn't we have gotten someone like HammerFall to open? They'd bring their own fans to the show and I'm sure they'd dig X Japan!

Who do you trust when everyone's a crook?

Hammerfall? Heavy metal and speed metal? Sounds awesome! Would have been a million times better than some vampire band...I also tried Vampire Everywhere several times...actually more than twice...but no...just no...I don't think I can do it...

imo Blind Guardian and X Japan together would be the greatest combination of all time.

Better version of Silent Jealousy

After watching I think Toshi did a lot better singing this than what I felt watching the other video.

I just hope people aren't obnoxiously rude while they're playing. Dislike 'em all you want, just don't make us all look like jerks. D:

Wow, seizure lighting. I actually feel really bad for them, but I'm sure if I was there I'd just be laughing my ass off.

I was going to skip them originally, but I think I may actually watch them. I gotta witness...awfulness for myself!

It'll be funny to be there and witness the Canadian reaction, perhaps we won't be so polite like we usually tend to be.

That would be awesome, but so harsh on VE...but honestly, if i'm waiting to see X Japan perform in front of me...I don't really care...especially if its a faggy little vampire wannabe band.

Haha, we'll just have to wait and see what goes down. If anything, by the time they arrive to Toronto, VE will just turn into an Axl Rose kinda thing. That would be epic!

Are you kidding me? This escalating, irrational hatred of this band has been driving me crazy from the beginning. This is just... How could you throw around a word like that? Even if their music is shit, doesn't matter. Grow up already. Learn some respect. You can make your statement just as proudly by standing there with your mouth shut. You can just stop caring. Get over it. No matter how terrible you are to them, it's not going to make them go anywhere. It's just making US look like assholes! How many times do you think X-Japan got called fags, huh?

I'm not a fan of Vampires Everywhere. But I might just cheer my heart out for them for all the shit they've been going through with crowds like these. No one deserves that.

I second this. It's cool of you to want to be so civil towards the band (even if they suck), but I don't like hearing this word thrown around, either...

Okay, so for the most part the fans just kind of stared nonchalantly at the group and ignored them, with a few jeers.

But, Brandom--pick a different word. Don't be an ass and start making homophobic comments at the band. They suck, yes, but that word is just NOT COOL.

I came to this site to find out who was opening for X Japan. Now I know. All I have to say is that apparently their hair never met a razor it didn't like...and I don't have to worry about showing up late.

I'm not saying anything directly in his defense, but I don't think he meant it in a offensive-to-homosexuals way. I mean he's a fan of X Japan for gods sake :P Maybe think of the term as it was used in South Park (the episode was called "The F Word" and it was episode 12 of season 13)...

OK , they are sub-par, awfully retarded, cliche...C'mon people join in the fun here. Let's find the right adjectives that would describe VE the best! ;D

I really don't see what's so fun about this. I'd rather talk about
X-Japan than throw deragatory, offensive slang at a band that's going to be gone in a few years anyway. By the way, I'm no more a fan of faggot as
I am of retarded. Can't you think of a more
creative way to bash them if you have nothing better
to do?

On this thread we are discussing Vampires Everywhere so .... If you like them great however, if you don't like them I think you should still be able to express that. Also I didn't realize that we were trying to be politically correct. Also non of these remarks were directed at anyone on this forum. I'm not sure if I could say the same about your comments.

It means what it means. It's still horribly offensive to gay people. It's not cool to throw around words like that just because you "changed the definition". I can't go around calling people on the street motherfuckers because I think it means "silly-pants". =P

OK. No argument on this one. It was a wrong choice of words. I am however certain that no offense was meant by it in any way. I am sure that next time a more appropriate term will be used. Point made! Now could we please move on?

if this band were great, we would know of them at least through all the media bullshit that gets shoved down our throats. then again..bieber gets shoved down our throats and overshadows EVERYTHING.

It wouldnt be half as bad if bieber opened, becuz as you know, Canada started Bieber fever, so all the people can suffer LOL

No they aren't. At least they don't have much to offer musical talent wise. I also can't say that they could be considered original with their image either.

They're just very boring and lack..well, a lot. The vocalist can't sing and even when he's screaming it's the same pitch over and over. The last song they performed on the set was the only one that seemed very different at all to the rest. There was a guitar "solo" in one song that was rather slow and was pretty much 5 different notes....yeah i'll stop now.
