Great to hear they are having concerts. But I wish it is just two concerts which ends the story of X Japan.

XJAPAN　~序章の夜~　2DAYS

1/20メンバー緊急記者会見

アジアツアー、欧州ツアー、HIDE追悼公演
アルバム、新作発表、順次発表するとみられる。

An asian tour, european tour, album and hide tribute are expected to be announced on the 20.

darkcat21 · **Reply #7 on:** January 15, 2008, 09:34:12 PM

Ok:
- New album
- European tour
- Asian tour
- hide tribute concert on May 2 with Luna Sea and friends playing

This things are not confirmed, they just come from Japanese forums, and people are reporting from TV, so it might be true or false. The only things sure are the two concerts and a press conference on the 20, which will be broadcasted on the main Jap radio stations.

Menacia · **Reply #8 on:** January 15, 2008, 09:40:40 PM

YAY!! *speechless*
can't wait for the 20th. so curious.
but apart from that, let's hope there is going to be a TV broadcast of the live. Even if its only one song.

Oh my gosh, if the European Tour and the new album would be true, that would be great, and I'm looking forward for the two confirmed dates.
Thanks so much for the info.

Sugizo might be the guitarist.

That would be no big surprise imho, cause it would make totaly sense to pick him.

Uhhh, majime (majimena) is an adjective - means earnest, serious and implies hardworking. It is often used when describing student's or working attitude. Which means if your teacher says you are majime, it's pretty good. However, with a certain load of sarcasm it could also be translated as tight-assed.

Thanks, so with 'majime' I know now a handfull of japanese words.

Anna · **Reply #25 on:** January 16, 2008, 10:46:01 AM

Though if somebody's tight-assed about money or such, call him kechi.

Confirmed: Luna Sea to play the hide tribute concert.

EDIT: http://www.hide-city.com/cgi-bin/free/news/index.cgi?id=1200495866

(IMO, it seems that since the information about the concerts was a 'leaked information' X office won't give it as official... so don't be afraid at all)

I hope you mean Luna Aea are ONE of the bands that are going to play at the Hide tribute concert, because a Hide trbute concert
without X-japan would suck imo. I'm probably simply confused and it was obvious from the start they're going to be just one
of the bands there and I didn't need to make this post at all.

Some more rumours coming from this article. (It seems to be from a Japanese journalist or somehting like this):

- I.V. released via iTunes (as I said in the other topic)
- iTunes to be the main sponsor worldwide
- Extasy Summit on May 3
- Asian tour (China, Thailand and Singapore)
