Tero's Statement

jui's broadcasting was already uploaded on youtube
(check out here)

but what is going on with the other members? At the moment, everybody desperately wants to hear their voices, their opinions, their feelings. i guess all fans feel the same right now.

The ameba blogs are silent and there are also only very few informations on twitter. However, one of them is from tero saying that he had written a comment over at his FC blog.
usually i'm not very committed  to sharing "FC only" information but it's something different this time, something special, and i think it concerns everybody who loves vidoll whether they pay money for the FC or not.
and i can't stand all this jui-bashing that has been brought up today.... shut the fuck up, seriously!
it's a decision ALL OF VIDOLL made. not just jui!

here comes a rough translation of TERO'S BLOG:

__________________________________________________


i'm sorry for the sudden news.
on may 7th vidoll will disband at shinkiba coast.
we came this far because we were supported by many fans, the staff, band friends, our office, by friends and family.
thank you very much.
to be honest, the 9 years with vidoll were more troublesome than fun but they were experiences.
also, the world of music business is becoming severe these days.
"many bands disband or stop activities" - you hear these kind of words very often recently.
but..
that's only because these times are marked by big economic recessions and some bands lack the ability and the luck to endure them.
Of course it's not only us, but everybody, facing difficult and hard circumstances and a tough daily life.


About 2 years ago, it started to happen inside vidoll that everyone of us headed towards different directions and the things we wanted to do as a group became diffuse and i think in the end it also made our fans feel helpless and confused.
I personally wanted to go on a Japan tour in the end and I also wanted to see our fans abroad and it's very sad that these wishes could not have been fulfilled.
So i made the decision that i wanted to leave the band  in september of last year.
Until recently we had a lot of discussions with the office and the band members about the band.
I always worried about the fact whether it was really good for me to go on with this band, including all the office stuff and such.
Music means having fun with music.... and as i realized it, the fun had already vanished.
Furthermore, at some point the people around me didn't see me as a drummer anymore and these were psychically and physically hard times for me.
I think the notions "i want to have fun" and "i need to have fun" are totally different and sometimes i couldn't even concentrate on playing the drums or the piano. i lost the idea of "having nothing else than lots of fun with being in a band".  At some other point, i suffered from being unable to understand things such as "what is it that i want to do? and what is a band?"
But with all the people i met, the words of our fans and the support of my friends, the people i was able to share something with... i felt like i had to give my best.
In the long run, it ended up in the disbanding but the other members have their own reasons. i think everybody is going to go on with their own activities but i can't say anything about the plans of the other members.
i think it was just a question of time because sooner or later it would have led to the same result.
Thus, i want everybody to give their best from now on as well.
that i was able to be with the 5 of vidoll is like the second page of my youth.
maybe i will challenge new music, do support [drums] or even form a new band of whatever kind. although Vidoll has ended now i want to come back to the stage!
because after all: i love music.
"an end" is "a beginning", "losing something" is "gaining something".
after that we'll just see.
thanks everbody for your support!
if i could say everything i want i would not be able to stop writing!
i'll give my best until the end!
Finally, i want to say something: they said it in the news today but i won't run a farm. rather, i can't! "niconico channel" and "twitter comment announcement" are not displaying our own intentions. and i do not intend to give up music! i totally can't understand how it came to such rumours.
