Thats cool

To me I think Yoshiki always seems nervous in most interviews nowadays. I guess it is down to all that has happened to him over the years and that in my opinion he is mostly used to expressing himself in his music and not through interviews. Yoshiki is more likely to make a song of what has happened to him over "the past 10 years" than just describing it in words there and then on the spot. The most beautiful words Yoshiki has ever spoken was for hide at his funeral and I guess it will always remain that way.

He also writes nice meaningful blogs for all of us on myspace too but I guess he is not pressured by anything as it is usually him in his studio as he says. Where it is probably easier to express himself than being pressured in front of hundreds in America

ponytailed girl: "and how exactly did you get into x?"

That one made me cringe.

So did the end... YOSHEEKEE!

I can't believe he handled the stupidity and the otaku so well. He displayed great patience there. It makes me embarrassed to be American.

Well, what should he have done...? Explode in front of the whole audience?
Anyway, I could imagine he's pretty tired about such things and prefers to forget it quickly but getting angry about it (since that would be wasted energy).

Sure...exploding would be a nicer option.

I think anyone would. He seems to be an incredibly patient person, though.

Imagine yourself surrouded by ugly-fat-american kids in low-quality anime cosplaying suits, yelling random and badly pronounced japanese, constantly asking about hide & calling him YoshEEkEE, on top of it all.
I'd explode. Seriously. :?

lol, matsumoto! i feel you. UGH! at the fat greasy chick that tried to kiss him at the otacon. (did you hear about that?)

i also hate it when some westerners mispronounce his name.

but, i can tell yoshiki wasn't being a diva. i remember he was very, very flattered for making fans overseas all these years.

Anyway, I guess he's somehow tired about explaining again and again that his name is pronounced Yosh-ki. Thinking of it, even his so-called VIP-friends pronounce it wrong, and that is since he lives in L.A. (somehow I wonder if everyone first reads is name before they talk to him...)
