Yeah, thanks for the link Hypno! (Finally, JRR interviews someone cool, rather than the usual VK kids with hair bows and nose covers and whatever.

Anyway...
HOLY SHIT, THAT ROCKS!! Cloud Nine wants to come to LA!! FUCK YEAH!! I am seriously more excited about this than I am about the potential of X Japan coming here. Oh man, PLEASE let Cloud Nine decide to come to LA for real. Just reading that they WANT to has totally made my week.
And how about DTR? Hey Taiji! Bring DTR here too!And after reading this interview I really admire Taiji even more than before. I especially like what he said about X:
JRR: If you don't mind, would you tell us how you feel about X and the X JAPAN reunion?
Taiji: For me, on guitar, that's HIDE, that's PATA, I myself am not X JAPAN, I'm X-
JRR: Well, X and X JAPAN is different for people like me, too.
Taiji: About that, how can I say this, inside myself, in my heart X is alive, so I guess that's the reason I don't really feel like thinking very much about the past. I want to make the most out of the present, live now, so, if X JAPAN is going to reunite, I really want them to give it their best.
JRR: I'm very grateful to hear you say this.
Taiji: ... Go for it, X JAPAN.
It's so damn cool to see him say that, since all of that is exactly how I feel about X and X Japan too. And I'm so relieved that he's chosen to go his own way and remain part of X, but not part of X Japan. You rock, Taiji.
I love what they both said about visual kei vs. Loudness, too. And of course, great to hear that Taiji's in good health again.
CLOUD NINE!! COME TO LA!!
