Dream: Buck-Tick and a Bus

Anyway, the nearly epic band and bus dream.

I was in a small town that seemed to be in the area of my old church, but the church wasn't there. Sometimes I was watching as if a movie and sometimes I think I was riding around in the mind of an adolescent girl who looked similarly to the girl in The Lovely Bones. I saw a familiar man who had just gotten out of a black car, and recognized that he was Hide from Buck-Tick, though I said he was the bassist (he's the second guitarist). He was also about fifteen-twenty years younger. There was a sort of record store set up under a tent, and they had a few Buck-Tick albums, more in the shape of DVD cases, in plastic keeper cases. I grabbed one that was a vinyl album and another that had Sakurai from the PV Dress off of it to show my mom that it really was Buck-Tick. When Sakurai got out of the vehicle, I dropped the items and stepped away from them. And hid.

Imai, the guitarist, got out with his guitar, and he handed it to a kid to play. I laughed out loud, explaining to my mom, who was now watching this on video with me, that Imai plays lefty even though he's right handed, so the kid was really confused by the guitar. It has a sort of flat handle that connects the body to the neck in a long arc.

Then it seemed that it was a movie, and Sakurai seduced the girl, but it was more like a her nodding her affirmation since he didn't speak. I was like what the hell, why would he do such a thing. Parts of the video showed him nude from the side and I thought, “What? Sakurai took off his clothes for this role? Wait, that can't be Sakurai's body.” When I tried to figure out what was off, the video switched to a perspective where it was easier to see, like the scene switched. it looked like a weightlifter body with Sakurai's little head pasted on, looking as though he was trying to keep himself from bursting out laughing. I laughed out loud at the ridiculousness, and sometimes the face didn't look anything like Sakurai either. It seemed to skip where they were sleeping in the basement room of the house that was located where my old church would be in real life, to where I thought it was safe to walk around town again (back out of the video?). His name was also different, but I couldn't tell you what it was. Atsugi Ma....? something.

There was a teenage boy, slightly older than the girl, either her brother or someone with a crush on her. He was so angry about what had happened that he started the house on fire. Belatedly he realized she might still be inside, and he checked the basement window. It looked like the back of someone's head in the top bunk of a bunk bed. He got inside and the room was still the way in the video, a larger bed on the floor (no bunks) and the shape of a person was wrapped up in black sheets. He tugged them away, pulling back blankets, but there was nothing there. I imagined the scene if he had found her, cradling her, probably dead for some reason.

I was talking to someone about... something... when I saw that there had been an accident on a bus. The bus driver put a little girl and a puppy into an empty suitcase and closed it, going to stow it underneath. I tried to keep the attention of the person I was talking to so they wouldn't be alarmed, but when the driver closed the suitcase, I made motions toward it with my head so the person I was speaking to would see. I got on the bus carrying a fold down caution cone, but this one was big enough to be a cat carrier. I accidentally dropped it when I was getting on and a lady in a powered wheelchair tipped over on it. I rolled my eyes because I knew she was trying to remember the serial number of the cone so she could find out who owned it and sue me. The driver righted her and she rode off with a satisfied look on her face. I might have gotten off the bus too? I'm not sure.
