Ok. That makes 11pm then for Belgium, Germany, Finland and so further (23 h)

Just saw somebody write on facebook this: XJAPAN plans to have a press conference at 14:45 into the Ritz Carlton Hotel Chicago.

Ulquiorra · **Reply #151 on:** August 07, 2010, 07:45:50 PM

Today or tomorrow?

Beauty/Broken · **Reply #152 on:** August 07, 2010, 07:53:10 PM

Do we have a definite radio stream of X Japan's stage? There will be, no doubt, highlights which will surface onto Youtube in due course, as all of the main stages will be filmed - but as for live coverage, it would be really nice.

I think I read somewhere that there is a live stream of Yeasayer, so surely some other station will have X Japan?

Ann1958 · **Reply #153 on:** August 07, 2010, 07:53:22 PM

Now, today! I go verify that on twitter, I suppose it comes from Twitter.

That's in an hour.

As for the two radio broadcast sources we have, we have no idea if they're going to broadcast X-japan's live, we just know that it starts at 11 and ends at 7, and seeing as X are on the main stage there's a chance their show will be broadcasted.

Though I'm still suspicious because there was a description somewhere saying that broadcast will "feature the best DJ's", so I have no idea what'll be on there, or if they'll broadcast X or not, but we should definatly listen when the concert starts to find out obviously.

I think I was the one who mentioned the live webcast. It can be found here:

Since X are playing on one of the big stages, it's likely that it will have a professional camera set up (for the big screens and for media companies).

One can only hope that we will get some footage similar to this:

That's the same broadcast, its only showing yeasayer as well. And there's no other broadcast from what I can find, so we'll have to just use the radiobroadcasts to here X.

I hope they'll announce the release date for the new album at this press conference.

Ann1958 · **Reply #160 on:** August 07, 2010, 08:43:12 PM

I think the press conference is mayby because of Japanese press? Because the person that mentioned it is Japanese. I saw nothing mentioned about a press conference in other places.

Ulquiorra · **Reply #161 on:** August 07, 2010, 08:44:56 PM

Shane, your post has just reminded me of Yoshiki's twitter message "We may be able to announce the details of the US tour dates at Lollapalooza or before. I'm so excited!", So that's probably what this conference is for. I'm not expecting an album release date for the album, though that is kind of important for the people at lolla to know, so they know how to keep up with the band/album.

Feudal · **Reply #162 on:** August 08, 2010, 12:00:01 AM

Any info on the conference? Nothing on Yoshiki's twitter page besides him meeting some fans leaving the hotel. Was this conference officially confirmed? Must have detaillssssss :O

According to people on the forum that must not be named if you have sprint tv on a sprint phone you can watch lollapalooza, under "on demand" and "SEE" (Sprint Exclusive Entertainment), don't know if X will be broadcasted though, might as well try it though if you have a sprint phone.

Lol Ulquiorra, Did you left a meaningful comment at least?

What in godsname is a sprint phone/tv?

Ulquiorra · **Reply #171 on:** August 08, 2010, 12:27:47 PM

I don't know what is is either XD. If anyone knows what a sprint phone is and has one, then that post was for them XD.

Its probably just a type of phone we havn't heard of, and sprint tv is obviusly an application for it.

Sander · **Reply #172 on:** August 08, 2010, 12:29:38 PM

Sprint is a big cellphone company in the US. So it's only available for people there. But again, it's not certain you can see X Japan anyway.

Beauty/Broken · **Reply #173 on:** August 08, 2010, 01:46:32 PM

Starting to get really excited, 10 hours, 15 minutes to go

TG · **Reply #174 on:** August 08, 2010, 03:13:15 PM

Sorry if this sounds a bit silly, but what is the weather forecast for Chicago today?

Sander · **Reply #175 on:** August 08, 2010, 03:29:54 PM

Lengthy heat wave starts today. A sunny start to the day with temperatures quickly warming through the 70s in the early morning and toward 90 degrees by noon. SW winds 10-18 mph spread hot, moisture- laden air across NE Illinois. Mid-afternoon temps peak in the lower 90s, but the increasingly unstable air triggers a few late-day and evening t-storms, possibly covering 20 to 30 percent of the metro area. Warm and humid at night with light southwest winds. Low temperatures drop only into the lower or middle 70s.

An hourly forecast - http://www.wunderground.com/cgi-bin/findweather/getForecast?query=60290&hourly=1&yday=219&weekday=Sunday it shows 47% humidity, 31 degrees Celsius, 18 km/h wind from SW, partly cloudy with 10% chance of rain and 41% cloud cover for 4PM

Current weather - http://www.google.com/#hl=en&source=hp&q=weather+chicago&aq=0&aqi=g10j1&aql=&oq=weather+chic&gs_rfai=&pbx=1&fp=ea2cd8eab02d18af
