I think you are refering to the CDL 02-03 - specifically durring the performance of Everywhere Nowhere. That DVD is deceiving as well. She was not fiddling with it because of breath sounds and what not, she was fiddling with it because the mic cut out completely. It went off and on throughout the whole song. What is on the DVD is a completely replaced audio track.

Well, that's how you know that Gackt's DVDs are edited. Between the songs where he is using a headset mic, you hear breathing sounds very heavily but as soon as the song starts those sounds entirely dissappear.

Correction: There is nothing better than seeing Gackt perform Mirror live and falling off-stage.

That clip cracks me up everytime. I just wish I could find a higher quality version of it. He just gets up as if nothing ever happened and that was no short fall either. If you listen closely, you can hear him say he is alright to a staff member.

Now that is an example of a real live performance while using a headset - you can clearly hear the differences between how he sounds durring the actual performance and how the DVD sounds.
