5月9日に行なわれたL’Arc～en～Ciel、初のパリ公演のライヴ速報が到着！
会場はLe Zenith de Paris。ライヴの4日前から熱烈なパリジャン＆パリジェンヌが列をなして「布団持参」で入場待ちをする景色も見受けられ、待望の初来仏に対する熱の高さをまざまざと感じさせた.
会場には約5500人 が訪れ、ライヴが始まる前から手拍子や歓声が上がり続ける興奮状態。その歓声や足踏みは楽屋にいるメンバーにも大きく届き、ヴォーカ ルのhydeは歓声に合わせながら叫び声をあげたり、バンド名として考えると故郷にあたる地で（L’Arc～en～Cielとはフランス語で「虹」を意味 する言葉）、特別な時間を楽しんでいた。ちなみに今回のライヴは衛星生中継で日本各地の映画館へ中継されており、深夜3時からの「レイト・ショウ」を多く の人々が楽しんだ模様だ。More
Staff Diary / May 13
The very first show in Europe! L’Arc-en-Ciel’s concert in Paris successfully ended.
There was a long line in front of the venue before the show started. The fans were calling out “L’Arc-en-Ciel!”, singing the band’s songs and seemed hardly wait for the show.
Well, the venue here was first “indoor” hall of this tour. It looked like a huge “livehouse” since the floor was for all-standing.
The members really liked the atmosphere of the venue. They spent time relaxing at the dressing rooms, talking to staffs outside in good weather, etc.
At the concert, the audience reacted to each song passionately. There were even some fans crying hard because of the performance. Yes, definitely the show was so hot!
During the show, ken got hit with air burst but the concert resumed after that, and the bands showed energetic performance!
Through the press conference and the concert, the band could communicate with so many fans in Europe. We’re sure that the band was so happy about it.
Next show will be in Seoul! Get ready for it!
Ciel’s Diary / May 15
L’Arc-en-Ciel’s first concert in Paris was so much fun!
I was very excited to see European fan reaction! It was so amazing that they were singing L’Arc-en-Ciel songs together before the show!
They came from all over the world like Spain, Germany, Russia, Chile, etc. etc.
The audience’s huge cheer reached the band’s dressing rooms just before the show, and this made the band so excited!
But then an accident happened during the show and I was so worried.
An air burst hit ken’s elbow! The show was stopped for a while, but fortunately it was resumed soon after. He showed hot performance to the audience!
Thanks everyone who came to see the show!

do you know if this is going to be the same setlist for when they play in tokyo?
I don’t know…
I did a poll about the best song from Laruku’s live in Paris ^^
Vote if you want
POLL
sure! I voted “Caress of Venus”
Hehehehe i voted “My Dear” ^^
Dylan! you’re french, aren’t u? XD
Can you translate me something? haha
Reading the comments of Laruku’s blog in their myspace, i found one talking about the report that the “France 2″ channel made about the concert. The girl said that many french people found that report insulting and ironic, so lots of fans sent mails to the channel to protest (like 100 mails). Thanks to that, the channel recognized that they had made a mistake, that it was not a good report, and that they wanted to correct it in a debate show called “Le Médiateur”.
I found that debate show video, but it’s all in french and i can’t undersand it LOL
It would be great if you can tell me what they’re say XDDDD
