V-ROCK 2009 VISUAL KEI FESTIVAL IN CHIBA, TOKYO JAPAN. D'ESPAIRS RAY, VERSAILLES. Marilyn Manson, the GazettE, Moi dix Mois, PENICILLIN, D'espairs Ray, heidi., Vidoll, SuG, ALI PROJECT, TSUCHIYA ANNA, Exist Trace. Visual J-rock concerts and events in Tokyo, how to buy tickets for Japanese rock concerts. Makuhari-Messe on October 24th to 25th, 2009.

Everyone say this in a dramatic voice:
“In 2009 JAPAN will set its attention to the WORLD!
We proudly present this year’s Festival of Festivals!
In October 2009 more than 50 artists will participate
in the world’s largest visual-kei festival ever…V-ROCK!”

“For two days on four stages Makuhari Messe will be transformed into sacred ground.” This year, the performers include such Visual Rock gods as Versailles, D’espairs Ray, The GazettE, Moi dix Mois, PENICILLIN, D’espairs Ray, heidi., Vidoll, SuG, ALI PROJECT, TSUCHIYA ANNA… and Marilyn Manson? Whatever works!

Here is a 10 minute propaganda video that will get your blood flowing. Can you find Yukiro Dravarious among the interviewees?

And can you name the Visual Kei bands in all the photos? Fly over to my Visual Kei Male or She-Male guessing game for a hilarious challenge.

The V-Rock Visual Kei festival takes place October 24-25 at Chiba’s Makuhara Messe. A 1-day ticket is 12,000 JPY; a 2-day is 20,000 JPY (tax-included). For English info and a link to buy tickets, click here. Has anyone been to V-Rock before? Which bands would bring out your inner fangirl/boy?

Song of the Day #162: Anna Tsuchiya – Kuroi Namida (She’ll be at the festival; will you?)

Mana in general brings out my inner fangirl. I'm actually not really into Visual Kei (THE HORROR, THE BLASPHEMY! O_O) but Mana-sama could turn me into a giggly fangirl anytime… I'm a sucker for beautiful men, so honestly I would go just for the eyecandy! ^3^

Violet_Rimbaud

honestly I don't think, unless I was 13 again, any of these guys could bring out a fangirl in me, because I think fangirl in my mind means having a crush on the band members and being stupid obsessed with them. I like men… like Mikael Åkerfeldt type men. yum.

I honestly don't know whether to love you or hate you for blogging about this cause now I'm so desperate to go I'm considering taking out a loan in case I don't have the money in time. And I'm actually kind of interested in seeing Marylin Manson. o__o I wonder if his Japanese fans are as violent as his American fans…

Inner fangirl? I'd have to say exist trace, Ayabie, SuG, D, D'espairsRay, and the Gazette. exist trace mostly though, gotta love all girl vk bands. :3 I think I may be the only person who is somewhat terrified of Manasama. o__o;

(Your blog rocks. A lot. I plan on using your guides for shopping and the goth club nightlife guide during my trip in June. You're a life saver~! And Basil is probably the cutest cat I've ever seen. >w<)

Marilyn Manson has quite a few Japanese Goth fans! I think they appreciate his music and look (which are, esp in the Antichrist and Mechanical Animals era, very compelling) — and don’t really know (or care) about his battles with Columbine accusers, Christian groups etc. His music is also “fresh-sounding” because young people didn’t grow up hearing him on the radio.

Mana-sama touched some of my friends at the Ebisu concert! He’s…. got the aura.

I’m so glad that my site has been helpful! I’ll be sure to update the guides before your trip. ^^

Heh, I think at V-Rock, anything can be Visual! (Marilyn Manson? Why not…)

Actually, I’ve seen Abingdon in the VK section of music stores.
