Toshi / Re: To foreign fans,

« on: January 25, 2011, 03:30:16 PM »

Thanks for your translation. I'm really appreciated.

I hope your best wish can carry to all ToshI fans who still believe that what happened to Toshi is just a little fight between ToshI and Mr.M. They told me that M is a good person because he helped ToshI when ToshI was desperate, but there are some problems about money and misunderstanding, so ToshI left him. K is an innocent woman... blah...blah... BTW, I don't worry about them much, because they choose to follow ToshI rather than HOH. ah...more I talk, more I look worse....

The Concerts / Re: Ever had a dream with X Japan?

« on: October 27, 2010, 07:03:07 AM »

I just dreamed about ToshI last night. I know a guy who was his neighbor, living in the same apartment. I asked him how is ToshI in his real life ? He told me that he is weird, but so kind and polite. If I want to meet ToshI, he can give me ToshI's address. I screamed 'Oh!!!! I have not could afford to go to Japan anymore, since I have spent my money for X Japan lives @ Yokohama!!!' ...hahaha... kind of a sad dream.

The Concerts / Re: Has anyone ever met any X Japan members?

« on: October 27, 2010, 06:53:32 AM »

Never in person, just saw them far away. BTW, I once saw Yoshiki about 5 meters away, but so crowded. I think Yoshiki really looks like my older brother in the way of his body size, walks and smiles. So, god-like-worship seemed to be disappeared from him to me just a moment. *lol*

Yoshiki / Re: Yoshiki's health and hyperthyroidism?

« on: October 21, 2010, 01:30:14 PM »

Maybe, it can explain why Yoshiki's voice is so hoarse lately, well.... since Yokohama shows, I think that his voice hasn't sounds the same.

X JAPAN World Tour / Re: X Japan World Tour @ Queen Elizabeth Theatre, Vancouver, Canada - October 3rd

« on: October 05, 2010, 09:02:42 AM »

This isn't a song, but I have to post it because its a bit confusing. Why does Sugizo walk away from the other members when they're about to do their final bow together at the end? They all look at Sugizo as if to say "come on, don't be silly, you're one of us now". And even when Sugizo is doing the swinging bows with them, he doesn't seem to be putting any effort in at all and seems really distracted, and even misses the moment when the others jump, its very odd. It could just be that he had to deal with something off stage and it wasn't going right so people were talking too him off stage and distracting him, not sure.

As he said in recent interview with JAME or something, IMO, maybe suddenly changing the schedules irritate him who always works with fix ones.

Anyway, the tour will end soon and he can go back to work for Luna Sea and his own solo projects, he will be more relieved. :-p

X JAPAN World Tour / Re: X Japan World Tour @ Paramount Theatre, Seattle, WA - October 1st

« on: October 02, 2010, 01:08:06 PM »

Keep my eyes on the US Tour. Their performances are quiet great far from show in Japan, but just got few attention from US. I bet if this situation still goes like this, I can't see the future of the band in US and another World Tour. Let's see how Vancouver show goes.

X JAPAN World Tour / Re: X Japan World Tour @ Fox Theatre, Oakland, CA - September 28th

« on: September 29, 2010, 12:33:56 PM »

As far as the members and the audience enjoy the show, I think they get successful. It will sound terrible if 50% of 2000 people don't like their show which I previously found from Lives@Yokohama (mostly came from people who watched online broadcast.) Anyway, feedback from people who attended the lives sound good almost 95%, as far as I can see.

To tell the truth, I felt furious when I saw Lives in US looked very good, compare to Lives@Yokohama where I attended. They give US audience very good shows, but crummy ones to their loyal fans in JP. IMO

Today, ToshI announced that he would quit mixi with no explanation.

So sad .....

He has announced already.

Poor ToshI. It seems his life still in difficulty. I wish he can get through it.

Taiji / Re: How do you like Taijis looking ??

« on: September 08, 2010, 02:30:22 AM »

Since I was at Block A1 at Yokohama. I could saw Taiji. He looks chubby and walking as if his legs can't work well. Last year he was seriously sick. Maybe it's still effected him. I was a bit surprised, becoz I always see him in pictures which he always looks good.

hide / Re: Headwax suing Yoshiki for using hide's image in concerts?

« on: August 31, 2010, 10:53:05 AM »

4-5 days ago I found some j-news reported X Japan Fever Project with SANKYO is postponed, but yesterday People on twitter posted an ad. in Japan show the project is going to debut on 09.07. So, it means JMA and SANKYO keep releasing on their schedule with the images of Hide or removed him out ?

P.S. Many Ad. on magazines for X Japan Fever has been posted today, too!

hide / Re: Headwax suing Yoshiki for using hide's image in concerts?

« on: August 26, 2010, 06:48:02 AM »

Unlimited Groups is just a notorious company. It's my ridiculous to see someone tried to write the article to judge something when he/she doesn't really get any close to inside the J-entertainment scene. (literally!)

If he/she blame that JMA caused effect of Domino to Unlimited Gr. How to explain about Glay with have the same problem with Nexstar ? I think Glay's still fought for their songs copyright in the lawsuit with Unlimited Gr.

The big mistake of JMA was dealing business with Nexstar, that the mysterious leaves for J-fans and me.

hide / Re: Headwax suing Yoshiki for using hide's image in concerts?

« on: August 24, 2010, 09:09:27 AM »

 I won't judge anything here. But I wonder about the amount of money 2billion yen which they sue JMA. How comes this amount of money?! How calculates ?! It's not sound reasonable.

Since Nexstar has got involved with this case, I think there's something behind the scene.

I found him doesn't pay much attention on X Japan and can't find him write any good review nor write anything sounds cleaver for another bands, too. What's a plain Journalist!

X JAPAN World Tour / Re: X Japan Live at Nissan stadium in August

« on: August 08, 2010, 07:39:09 AM »

I don't know, but J-fans only talking about their seat location. I found somebody can't get good seats. Somebody can get ticket only for 1 day. Lottary tickets don't get good seats...blah...blah...

We don't know anything until the show start. Livedoor article is running under the connection with X Japan's old agency which still has problem with them. I remember Livedoor had article about Lives@Yokohama would never been happened, becoz it's just something Yoshiki brought up for changing the issue about he suing the agency. Moreover, Yoshiki has said in LA Times that Lives@Yokohama were held under disagreement of their managements.

At least, Yoshiki could sell the broadcasting rights to WOWWOW and DMM. I think he won't broke for these 2 shows. :-p

They will reply you within 96 hr. For people who reserved on July 31, will get reply on Aug 4 from my calculate. The period of reservation is opened on July 31 - Aug 8. It's weird that who reserves the ticket on Aug 8 will get result on Aug 12. Good luck for flight and accommodation.

Nobody can perfect. Yoshiki can't serve all taste of people. It's not out of my expectation when I see people come out and say how much they dislike a song. It should far better blah...blah...blah... *LOL*

IMO, I don't have any problem. I enjoy the song very much and can imagine how incredible fun when it's performed in live.

The story about the Toothpaste cap couldn't be any whom but YOSHIKI. They lived together at the beginning of X. Becoz of toothpaste, Taiji was kicked out of Yoshiki's room. *LOL*

The Night of Reunion will be really great!

S.K.I.N. / Re: Current status of SKIN?

« on: June 14, 2010, 01:36:50 PM »

"Something happened"

A.K.A - Gackt and Yoshiki fell out, big time - and haven't spoken since.

Gackt flew to LA for visit YOSHIKI after his surgery last year. He wrote on his blog, they had some fun together. At least, he joked about YOSHIKI's collar brace. They laughed together so much.

well! well! I don't think everyone serious with S.K.I.N, right ? This project has sounded so impossible since the beginning. 

BTW, I think they maybe have some fun together with a show of S.K.I.N. in the future, who knows!

« on: May 22, 2010, 11:10:14 AM »

I don't know him personally, so can't get any imagine how he live his life and think. But as far as I read your guys comments and read Hide online diary and interviews. I think if he is alive now and keep writing his own online diary. You guys will get scold by him for insulting his friends and family. :-p

(In case that you can read Japanese, he scolded a fan mail which in kind of insult Yoshiki.)

Thanks! Can't wait to see PATA as the God of Darkness and the new era of X Japan who care about eco! Yeah! Sugizo is a full member. He could add his idea to the PVs. He could be 'The purity of the nature.' Wow!

Taiji / Re: Did Taiji appear on stage at Hide's funeral?

« on: May 06, 2010, 03:49:00 PM »

According to Taiji's book which I read fan's translation. He knew the bad news by the media report. Taiji went to Hide's funeral by himself. It's Yoshiki who noticed Taiji was there and greet him well. J-media reported Taiji attended the funeral, just simply.

Frankly, I've never thought Taiji is closed to Hide's family at all, as far as I read both Taiji's and Hide's interviews. They lacked of talking about each other, if the topics weren't related to the band. Even now, Taiji's blog has never written anything about Hide's family nor Hiroshi.

« on: May 05, 2010, 07:49:16 AM »

I will!
I think this is my last chance to watch X Japan Live, considering with Yoshiki's health and other members activities. They are so busy. I won't think they will keep X Japan's activities last long. They get older and older every year. :-p

BTW, there's a rumor about Countdown live @ Kyosera Stadium @ Osaka, but I can't make sure anything.
