It says that on the press conference it was confirmed the hide tribute concert with Sugizo playing hide's parts.

So I'm a little confused, does it say X Japan will play at the hide tribute and there Sugizo will play hide's parts (no mention about any other band like Luna Sea performing there?) or does it mean that Sugizo will play guitar on any X Japan performance?

wow, someone please translate
Im to much in shock right now

They all mainly say the same, Dome concerts, hide guitar will be there, monitor displaying him, he wants to tour Europe, USA, Asia, etc.

Btw, if for him touring Europe is one performance in France, go and fuck your self Yoshiki...

It would kick ass if they performed more then once in Europe!

Rafaell · **Reply #65 on:** January 20, 2008, 10:35:14 PM

Europe is a must. Yoshiki owe that to all European X freaks.

madrigal · **Reply #66 on:** January 20, 2008, 10:41:43 PM

Maybe at the tokyo dome concerts?

Och om vi har tur så... varför inte globen?

Rafaell · **Reply #67 on:** January 20, 2008, 10:43:11 PM

I guess we just have to wait and see. There was a million rumors about an Asian tour too, and i dont think Yoshiki announced any Asian tour too. Så vi väntar spänt på fler nyheter.

Konata · **Reply #68 on:** January 20, 2008, 10:44:29 PM

Sweden would be so awesome. =O It'd cost less than getting my butt over to France or Germany. Maybe Finland, Yoshikii~? ;DD I need to write a lot of letters to him right NOW. XD But an European tour would be like a dream to all of us European fans. Please, Yoshikiih~? *puppyeyes*

madrigal · **Reply #69 on:** January 20, 2008, 10:47:18 PM

Europe would really rock

ESPECIALLY SWEDEN

(jag gillar att vi svenskar tar över forumet

)

alex · **Reply #70 on:** January 20, 2008, 10:49:08 PM

Hm, I wonder how to catch the tickets. I'm considering this. Is anyone else going?

Nja, inte en chans att dom skulle fylla globen

Tror närmaste spelning isf skulle vara i Berlin eller London. Bor nog för lite människor i norden för att dom skulle kunna ha en anmärkningsvärd fanbase

Rafaell · **Reply #71 on:** January 20, 2008, 10:50:53 PM

Yes, X to Sweden would rock.

Blir det nån EU turné eller spelning så blir det väl i Frankrike eller Tyskland. Jag är glad bara det blir någonstans i europa så man har chansen att se dom live. Är inte gjord av pengar, tyvärr.

madrigal · **Reply #72 on:** January 20, 2008, 10:52:45 PM

Tyvärr har du nog rätt, men om alla fans i europa kunde försöka ta sig upp till sverige så skulle det vara grymt med en konsert i globen!

Anyway! This new X album, is it a compilation of X songs or japanese songs?
It almost sounds like it's a compilation of japanese songs by different bands..
And do you think it will be released outside Japan? Or will they do like Diru and release compilation albums for their "new fans" and not release it outside of Japan?

nemetroid · **Reply #73 on:** January 20, 2008, 10:57:16 PM

Stockholm - Paris/Berlin round trip (ToR) is only about 500 SEK if it's far enough in advance. Definitely worth it. :wink:
(even though Umeå - Stockholm costs just as much even if you take shitty trains in the middle of the night

)

Astralmind · **Reply #75 on:** January 20, 2008, 11:21:20 PM

yeah well erm... anyone wishing for a Canadian Show lol ! feel lonely over here.. damn ! haha. Montreal is a great concert city.. world renown (or so they say). Bah.. hopefully somewhere near the borders in the US of A.. I could afford that. If not, screw it, I'll have to fly over to Europe and join you guys ! Lets see how this all turns out. It could be really cool to gather a bunch of X fans from all over the world to meet and go to the show...

Astralmind · **Reply #76 on:** January 20, 2008, 11:31:53 PM

now now, be nice to Canada

It doesn't suck that bad really, music wise, Montreal seriously is a great place to live in. Unfortunately, we don't get much J-Artists that's true (if any.. Loudness at some point in the 80s haha) . Fun fact, Glay filmed one of their clips (can't remember which one, had to do with Winter) in Quebec city, 2 hours from where I live (got to see them from a distance). I'm sure Jrock in general would be fairly popular over here as there is quite a good underground/indie/independant or just plain different scene. And there are quite a few X fans over here.

We've had quite a few decent shows recently... bands from Europe

Within Temptation, After Forever, Epica, Nightwish, Aema Daeva, Therion, Opeth, Blind Guardian etc.. a lot of other bigger bands obviously.

Sweden... that would be an ok compromise, I'd love to visit your country (home of Therion ! yay). Well anyways, we could always hope...

Arucard · **Reply #77 on:** January 21, 2008, 12:13:20 AM

Astralmind, if you think it'd be hard for X Japan to go to Canada, try imagining how I feel about they coming to Brazil... :lol:

RoseOfPain · **Reply #78 on:** January 21, 2008, 12:17:02 AM

well, we can hope all we want, but it all depends on Yoshiki, I hope he announces something about a EU Tour soon

Amethyst_Dahlia · **Reply #79 on:** January 21, 2008, 12:19:56 AM

I'm hoping for a World Tour. XD

Especially if it includes America *hint hint* =P

Heiji_revolution · **Reply #80 on:** January 21, 2008, 02:38:12 AM

yes!!!!! x-japan in europe, it cant be true oO

pleeeeeaaaaasssse!!!! i want tickets xD

alex · **Reply #81 on:** January 21, 2008, 03:21:03 AM

Nobody going? If not, it's quite discouraging :?

kbish33 · **Reply #82 on:** January 21, 2008, 03:32:20 AM

Anyone know how i'd be able to get tickets off the 'net or something. REALLY want to go (have money for tickets and plane fare and all that jazz).

Darkcat, thanks for the extensive coverage of the event.

I would have enjoyed it all much more, though, if I haven't spent the weekend on the verge of vomiting things I haven't even eaten... :?

I guess I'm going - well, try to go. I asked several of my Japanese (or currently in Japan residing) friends to try and get us some tickets and one of them already booked three for the Destruction night via Ym, but as it's a kind of a lottery, she will not know the results before Saturday. And I guess that if it doesn't work, we have only a minimal chance to get the tickets in the general sale... Oh well, if it doesn't work, then at least we won't spend the best part of our savings.

darkcat21 · **Reply #85 on:** January 21, 2008, 07:48:09 AM

Oh Anna! Does Toshi mention here "more songs"?

Yeah. "From now on, I think there will be more new songs..."

Menacia · **Reply #87 on:** January 21, 2008, 09:18:43 AM

YAY!! more new songs... this is damn great...damn awesome
Looks really like it's not a short time one-time only reunion but a complete one. This really looks like X Japan's reunion is going to be re-start of their activities. ^_^

madrigal · **Reply #88 on:** January 21, 2008, 09:28:42 AM

If it is, then there is actually a great chance that the are going to come to Europe in the future

And that they are going to release stuff in Europe!
