omg the 3 lucky draw items are so DAIGO inspired , like seriously xD & to me no surprises that the historical Spacey Hug meeting is going to be like 1 if not the coolest lucky draw item to win haha

And when DAIGO was still DAIGO☆STARDUST back then , he did organised Spacey Hug related events & the last Spacey Hug event took place was 7 years ago , when he released his 2nd/final last album HELLO CRAZY GENTLEMAN .

The 2nd prize is a phonecall which might be a bit embarrassing as should DAIGO really call me or something I wouldn't know how to react at all -_-'''

Also it's interesting to know that for both the Spacey Hug event + Phone call prizes , the winners for each prize category are all in the number 5 which's an obvious nod to DAIGO since 5 = Go in Japanese xD

I think for my case , I just stick with the wallpaper , just like what happened for AKIHIDE's case . I shouldn't be greedy about it , really :p

10 Itsumo Dakishimete / Mugen∞REBIRTH promo photos of DAIGO



Sanspo uploaded 10 Itsumo Dakishimete / Mugen∞REBIRTH promo photos of DAIGO via their website last Fri in which some of them are quite amusingly taken xD

While the rest are quite nice actually , with DAIGO still having his fancy DAIGO☆STARDUST inspired Spacey manicure on his fingernails xD

Sorry DAIGO no hard feelings xD

YouTube streaming - concert snippet footages of Kaette Yuku DAIGO☆STARDUST

As uploaded via JIJIPRESS's YouTube , in which they've uploaded a 1:01 min clip of concert snippet footages from last Fri's sold out Kaette Yuku DAIGO☆STARDUST that took place on 26th July at Shibuya Public Hall



In the footages itself , you can see 2 outfits that DAIGO☆STARDUST used to wear in his early days & that includes his infamous ROCK THE PLANET outfit as well xD xD xD

But obviously the main emphasis of songs in the short video clip is on both Mugen∞REBIRTH & Itsumo Dakishimete as both songs were sung by DAIGO as the last 2 tracks in the setlist for Kaette Yuku DAIGO☆STARDUST

That said , doesn't DAIGO☆STARDUST look great on his final comeback sold out concert ? I'm sure DAIGO will approve of me saying it hoho since he loves being praised so ~_~

Tokyohive - DAIGO makes a one-night comeback as 'DAIGO☆STARDUST'



On July 26th, rock band BREAKERZ vocalist DAIGO held a solo live at Shibuya Kokaido.

DAIGO made a one-night comeback as 'DAIGO☆STARDUST', his solo act from 2003 to 2007. He took the stage in his outfit from 6 years ago and said, "There are a lot more people in the audience than when I was active (as DAIGO☆STARDUST)."

DAIGO created 'DAIGO☆STARDUST' as the prince of rock who came from the stars. He reflected on those days saying, "I did my best trying to make everything 'spacey', but I really became 'stardust'."

On this night, he performed a total of 19 songs including his debut single, "MARIA", and his new song, "Mugen∞REBIRTH".

A very happy belated 33rd birthday to BREAKERZ's support bassist MATSU in which last Sun was his birthday ^____^

MATSU himself also serve as the backup bassist for both of DAIGO☆STARDUST's comeback sold out concert dates & last Fri itself after Kaette Yuku DAIGO☆STARDUST finished , both SHINPEI + DAIGO surprised MATSU separately as so



Honestly I don't know what SHINPEI gave MATSU as an early happy birthday but seems like it's some musician gear or something like that :O



Something about this cake is so amusing as in the centre it has DAIGO's logo but at the bottom , it says so otherwise xD xD xD



See what I mean ? ~_~



Aww so adorable <3

Once again , happy belated 33rd birthday MATSU <3

That said speaking of DAIGO , finally tomorrow Itsumo Dakishimete / Mugen ∞REBIRTH will get released

So can't wait to get my copies <3

[Utena]

I was in Tsutaya Shibuya a few min ago, snapped this quickly before leaving

[Chibi-Chan]

^Oh, thanks for posting!!!

[KarenPang]

Ah thanks Mylene the TSUTAYA standee looks great !

DAIGO P just finished earlier on & DAIGO played both the FULL PVs of Itsumo Dakishimete / Mugen ∞REBIRTH

As expected , the full PV of Itsumo Dakishimete was amazing & so's Mugen ∞REBIRTH !

The full version of both songs are fantastic but PV wise , Itsumo Dakishimete is just so sweet beyond words omg

I so want to go on a PG rated date with DAIGO but too bad that only happens in reel life for him :x

Mugen ∞REBIRTH was very good too , super entertaining if not having a much higher budget than Itsumo Dakishimete . They should have included more shots of Black DAIGO xD

As for the 2013 version of Daisy , gorgeous beyond words !

Amazing single DAIGO , I so can't wait to get my copies & utterly proud of you for coming so far from then til now

[KarenPang]

Whoever says that DAIGO & Yukata don't mix well together 8D

Your feet's sure big if not pale , DAIGO xD

This's it , DAIGO's Itsumo Dakishimete / Mugen∞REBIRTH debut single is FINALLY released today ! I hope it will be able to do well

+ it's the start of 5 back to back handshake events , starting for today with him being at Fukuoka's Canal City Hakata

Can anyone say holy moly :O



Caption included -"【拡散希望】 なんと火曜サプライズでジョニーデップさんとDAIGOの奇跡の2ショット！明日19時から火曜サプライズ ！オンエア！！ 映画『ローン・レンジャー』 主演：ジョニー・デップ 8月2日（金）全国公開"

http://p.twipple.jp/7kDEs

Wow DAIGO with Johnny Depp o___o & long story short , Johnny Depp appeared as a guest yesterday in Nippon TV's 火曜サプライズ ; Tuesday Surprise in which DAIGO cohosts the show with WaT's Wentz .

Johnny's latest movie The Lone Ranger will open in Japan cinemas on 2nd Aug as what DAIGO wrote in the caption that accompanied the photo & it's the real Johnny Depp , not a Japanese impersonator that somehow has the tendency if not liking to mimic Johnny haha

I could have swore that DAIGO looked somewhat drunk in the photo :p

[KarenPang]

DAIGO's Itsumo Dakishimete / Mugen ∞REBIRTH debuted at #14 on the 1st day

x->14

http://www.oricon.co.jp/rank/js/d/2013-07-30/more/3/

>_< Ah well I was already mentally prepared for the single not to do as well as expected , considering who DAIGO's up against this week D:

I just hope somehow or another , the next 4 handshake events will be able to help the single keep afloat somewhat :3

At least 1 thing I know is that DAIGO will not flop as horribly as when he released as DAIGO☆STARDUST previously

[KarenPang]

DAIGO appeared on Nippon TV's ZIP on Tue morning at 5.50am Japan time (yes not lying about the timing since ZIP! is a morning news show) , in their Chumoku corner as a guest .

DAIGO's debut single Itsumo Dakishimete / Mugen ∞REBIRTH was finally released yesterday & Tues morning , Tower Records Shinjuku tweeted this photo of the promo stand of DAIGO's inside their shop :



DAIGO名義で両A面シングルを初リリース！良い曲を作る、良い歌を歌う、良いライブをする、の3本柱の ダイゴノミクスから生まれた曲です！7Fにて展開中うぃっしゅ☆

The Itsumo Dakishimete / Mugen ∞REBIRTH promo stand can be found on the 7th floor inside Tower Records Shinjuku .

[KarenPang]

Pics - CD + DVD A & B backcovers of DAIGO's Itsumo Dakishimete / Mugen∞REBIRTH single





Kinda no surprises over the CD + DVD B backcover due to the Cardfight!! Vanguard promo tie in & at least animated DAIGO looks quite convincing here , alongside with the main lead character of the anime , Aichi Sendou .

The CD + DVD A backcover is still very o_O & the CD only backcover is almost the same as it's , except for the way DAIGO hugged the very lucky girl xD

That said 2nd handshake event of DAIGO's taking place later tonight at Aichi!
