           Yuya: X-Japan
           Hayato: Sex Machine Guns
           Val: Siam Shade

           Q: Since this is your first performance in America, do you think we're all 
              freaks and perverts?
           [Hayato]:(earning a laugh from his band mates and from the audience): We're 
                    more perverted than you.

           Q: Val, why isn't your hair curly anymore?
           [Val]: The other members didn't think it looked very Visual Kei, so I 
                  straightened it.

           Q: Do any of the members like anime, and if so, what series?
           [All]: (Collectively stated) Evangelion

           A: We already have some Geisha.

           Q: Were there any culture shocks?
           A: Not really. The main difference is that instruments and equipment are much 
              cheaper here.

           Q: (For Hayato) Do you do anything in particular to warm-up/take care of your 
              voice?
           [Hayato]: Not really. I just try to sing from my heart.

           Q: Did you have any problems in our society?
           A: One time we tried to order three steaks to share between the five of us, 
              and we ended up with three steaks each. XD

           A: We would like to tour with Slipknot.
           [Shun]: I would like to tour with the Backstreet Boys.

           Q: What message do you want to convey to listeners with your music?
           [Shun]: Nothing in particular. We want to basically move people, touching 
                   something in their heart/soul.

           Q: Are you looking forward to the World Cup being held in Japan?
           [Shun]: Yes!<---(He's a soccer fan)

           Q: Why do you use ESP guitars? Is it because you are backed by ESP or is it a 
              personal preference?
           [Shun]: ESP guitars are good, and they are suitable for all types of musical 
                   styles.

           Q: Do you have any questions for the audience?
           [DJ]: What did you think of our performance?
           Audience: ^o^ *Screamed and clapped*

           Q: How did Natsuki end up in the band?
           [Natsuki]: I was in a band that broke up, and I knew Shun, so that's how I had 
                      the opportunity to join Duel Jewel.

           Q: Natsuki, was it difficult being in a new band?
           [Natsuki]: At first it was different and kind of difficult, but I've adjusted 
                      by now.

           Q: Did you recognize any of the cosplayers you saw, and which ones did you 
              like?
           A: Mana from Malice Mizer, Kyo from Dir en Grey... We recognized most of what 
              we saw.

           Q: What did you do in your spare time here?
           A: We didn’t really have any spare time. (At this time, around 5:00pm, 
              Duel Jewel had not even had lunch T_T)

           Q: Would you come back again?
           A: Yes (It sounds like they plan on coming back again)

           Q: How old were the band members when they got interested in music?
           [Shun]: I can't really say what age because I've been intersted in music for 
                   all of my life.
