Hello! I've been searching all over the internet for a subbed video of the Drinker's Diary interview, but it's nowhere to be found by now. Does anyone happen to have it saved? It's too bad almost all translated videos have been deleted. :(

A GREAT friend is one who has BT playing on the speakers before you've even shown up to their house for dinner. XDDD

What would be necessary for you guys to feel comfortable here?

A nice handful of you have responded with hopeful but wary wishes for the community to be revived, but it’s stopping there and there’s been no further progress. We’ve got to do something, or it’s going to continue to be dead. I’m out here rallying for activity alone, surrounded with hesitant wallflowers not comfortable to make the next move and get out on the dance floor, so to speak... and I don’t want this community to be about me. That’s not my intention. Just, someone has to be the first to get out there, and that’s me, apparently. I want to see this place flourishing again.

I know that a lot of water has gone under the bridge with major safety and abuse concerns. I’m working on addressing that issue right now, to try to make things arranged so that won’t be easy to happen again. And then there’s the necessity of respecting copyrighted music and magazine content etc. limiting what we can post, compared to back in the day when it was anything goes because Japan really hadn’t noticed or given a darn about those outside of their primary audience. So that makes things more difficult, I know. But that is important.

I’ve also been looking into the potential of having prize drawings to generate buzz. Amazon offers a great service for that, to keep honest randomization of drawings, keep it legal, free shipping of prizes, 100% privacy for winners personal addresses and information, but with a hitch: they only serve the continental United States, so no non-USA members could participate. Journal user heads and paid user accounts are a safe and less expensive prize option globally, but not as thrilling as winning albums, and if you’re not using your account for anything but reading the feed, sort of worthless.


So feedback- what would be needed to help you feel more comfortable to participate here?

Thanks.

If you could go back in time and attend any BUCK-TICK concert, complete with a wad of cash for scoring merch, which would it be?

Any special tour final? An infamous date not caught on film but rumored of? A FISH TANKers ONLY? Multi band fest? Indie show way back in the beginning? Or even TV appearance on a music show?

Happy New Year!

Here’s a challenge, to get the feed moving and get to know each other better. There is no time limit to participate.

What made you love BUCK-TICK?

It’s a little different than the usual “how did you discover them” thing. Most of us know how we found the band, but haven’t looked closely at what they did or were that tipped the balance and made us fans.

Post it up in a separate post of your own, not in the comment threads of this post.

With Facebook and other social media collapsing, it’s becoming increasingly difficult for fans to find other BUCK-TICK fans and socialize. How about we give this place another chance?
