L'Arc First +Aid
Welcome to L'Arc First + Aid ^_^
Here's some general info that i dunno where to put
if you have any problems or questions..
they might be answered here( hopefully, if not u can always email me )

Ciel fanclub information
L'Arc cover magazines list
FAQ



Official fan club "Ciel"
They started accepting members from 1994 Dec 1st, and the first club magazine Vol.0 was out
in 1995 Jan.  Right now, Ciel only accept members who live in Japan....no international applicants yet
(but i feel that they'd do it soon? hopefully... ) anyways, we can't join it yet, but if you have a friend
living in Japan maybe you can ask them to join for you and mail you the things.
There's a club mag every 2 month,  a membership card ( a metal plate keychain with ur name + ID on one side and Ciel on the other side) and also privilege of ordering goods (only inside Japan..)
and also ordering tickets for concerts etc. Sometimes u also receive pamphlets and notices about new releases, tours, etc.
If u'd like to bug them about wanting to join you can send letter to :
Off Station Inc. Box 76. Shibuya Post Office. Tokyo. 150-8691. Japan
(please DO NOT send FAN LETTER to the above address)

This is the " membership card " ..the keychain, with your name, and your ID on it


The above watch, you get when you join in 94 Dec..comes with Vol.0
of course..you don't get i now if u join.

Ciel club magazine from Vol.0 > Vol.22 (some of them u can enlarge some can't..)



L'Arc cover magazines
This list may not be totally complete...
but should cover at least 80% i guess ^^
Sorry some i really forgot what issue...probably missed out quite a few..
and some covers i'm too lazy to scan an enlarged
version...some others i already have in my comp :P

please refer to above section...

2.) I want to send Laruku fan letter / presents, where do i send it to ?
Please don't send it to Ciel fan club.
Send it to Danger Crue.  The address is :
§150-0013@“Œ‹ž“sa’J‹æŒb”äŽõ1-22-20@Œb”äŽõK˜aƒrƒ‹3‚e
ƒfƒ“ƒWƒƒ[EƒNƒ‹[uL'Arc`en`Ciel@member—lvˆ¶  <-- Please specify which member
you're writing to.
(if you can't encode the stuff above, here's the add as an image )

Remember to replace " member " with the member you're writing to.
P.S. writing to them doesn't mean u'll get a reply..-_-" maybe u will.i don't know? ^^;
According to Pop beat interview, they asked " Do you read fan mail?"
hyde said : not really...(laughs)
tetsu : i forgot what he said..something like he try to read?
ken : forgot what he said again
yukkie : i read ALL ( wow , but yukkie i never got reply from u ), i received a 50 pg report
from a fan before too.

3.) Where can i buy Laruku products? 
You can email me ( remember to tell me where you live ) 
or you can post at BBS and ask others if u're looking for a specific item
there are also online stores like CD Japan

If you're looking for Light My Fire products or even older..it's quite difficult to find now,
of course there are still very few out there, but they're expensive,
and u probably have to get it in Japan.

4.) Do you have all the band scores?
No, whatever i've written in the "guitar tabs" page, is what i all have,
if u're DESPERATE DESPERATE DESPERATE ( empahsis hahaha) then i will 
try to get something that's not on my list for you, but of course 
it's gonna take me quite a lot of trouble...so that's only if you have a 
really desperate reason. Gomen ne ^^;;

5.) hyde so so are you japanese? what's your real name
Nope i'm chinese, i can read and speak chinese of course
i live in Canada now, but i still visit Hong Kong usually every summer ^^ 
Real name = secret...sorry ^^"
(actaully this is in the contact section already ..but ppl still ask)

6.) hyde so so why are you always N/A on ICQ, are you ever there?
Yes...i'm never in online mode...I don't like it when lots of ppl
started chatting at the same time. so i'm always N/A. but usually i'm still there :P
If you want to talk to me, just drop me a msg, 
if i'm there of course i'll reply you,
if i'm away from the comp then i won't reply, but u can leave me any questions
and even if u went offline i'll reply you by sending u offlines ^_^

7.) Are you hyde!? Are you laruku staff!? Are you related to Laruku? 
<-- i know this may sound ridiculous....but i really got a few mail before
like that ^^, sorry to disappoint you...but i'm not hyde...and i don't
have any special way of contacting him...i'm just as distant to him as much as
everyone else T___T

8.) Luna Sea fans are called Slave, what are laruku fans called?
Cielers i guess? that's what it says in the club magazine.

9.) I wonder if Laruku listens to Utada Hikaru? (haha)
Yes, at least Yukkie does, coz he even recommended that album in magazines.

10.) How can i buy a concert ticket?
When there's a concert, you can either order from Ciel fanclub (if u know anyone
who's in the fanclub and not going so they can buy a ticket for you, coz
there are limits)
Or you can just call up diff ticket masters like kyodo tokyo etc when the
tickets starts selling.
However it's a random draw...so there's no guaranteed front seats.
If you want a guaranteed block A seat, you can buy it at the ticket masters too,
but it costs like 10 times the original price. Block A ticket is about 60,000 yen 
(about 600 US dollars), if not, just depend it on ur luck ^^

11.) Where are the "Laruku places" in NYC? (Where they filmed Pieces etc)
The place they filmed Pieces - the time hotel, 224 W 49th St 
it's on 49th st, between 8th avenue and broadway, near times square.
The place Yukkie took pics for LIFE - Chelsea Hotel, room 525, 222 West 23rd St.
To buy hyde's ring, go to 152 prince street, alex streeter store.
To buy tetsu's buffalo boots,  169 Spring St
