I can't hear X over the interview, has something happened? The sound in the interview cut out during the solo.

TG · **Reply #331 on:** August 08, 2010, 10:57:51 PM

Well done X! Looking forward to feedback now from the people who were there.

ElefeX · **Reply #332 on:** August 08, 2010, 10:58:00 PM

Its gone quick! I would have thought another couple of songs but I guess you can only fit so much in an hour! Where was Born to be Free though?

mC · **Reply #333 on:** August 08, 2010, 10:58:30 PM

Only one disappointment...no Born To Be Free!

roseofpain84 · **Reply #334 on:** August 08, 2010, 10:59:31 PM

I personally liked it overall but it was too short...T_T
Well, 1 hour isn't that much anyway.

Ulquiorra · **Reply #335 on:** August 08, 2010, 10:59:38 PM

Did they stop the song, and the show in the middle of the Tears solo? Cause that's sure what it sounded like to me. How can you stop the song in the middle of a solo? I just don't get it.

Anyway, overall, quite good, not bad.

As for the audience reaction, well I don't know.

Yeah I think so... I'm actually quite disappointed in the whole thing really.
Not sure really why, but it seems like a half-arsed gig really. They could've done more withthe amount of time they had.

LPS · **Reply #337 on:** August 08, 2010, 11:01:44 PM

i.v. was complete, not the beggining.

I wish they'd announce those US tour dates already.

what should they do?

Ulquiorra · **Reply #340 on:** August 08, 2010, 11:05:43 PM

Toshi should've cut back a bit on the showmanship shouting to the audience so much. They could've gotten Week End in there.

It was quite a good show though still, Rusty Nail, Kurenai, X, I.V ect. and Toshi's voice from what I could hear was the best since the reunion.

They should not have played Tears last though, or cut it off in the middle of the solo, which is what must've happened.

TG · **Reply #341 on:** August 08, 2010, 11:06:05 PM

To be fair to X, 50 minutes is a very limited amount of time for a band of their stature. With most songs being fairly long, it was always going to be difficult to accommodate a lot within such a small amount of time.

I'm more interested to see what the major music publications will have to say about their performance. I hope they had a good time playing Lollapalooza and I hope that the fans did too.

Ulquiorra · **Reply #342 on:** August 08, 2010, 11:08:37 PM

It was great enjoying the excitement of it all with you guys!

Totally agree!

Hopefully we will get some good YouTube videos uploaded later! Will be good to see the reviews, see what people think! Maybe gain a few more fans - maybe some will join here?

I would think Weekend was on everyone's prediction set-list hehe wish it was played

shane140 · **Reply #345 on:** August 08, 2010, 11:12:48 PM

Quite a good show for what it was really, I enjoyed what I heard at least XD Now, the waiting for youtube videos begins...

XVikyX · **Reply #346 on:** August 08, 2010, 11:13:02 PM

time was too limited for X, but the performance was great anyway.. and Toshi's voice sounds really good. I hope somebody will upload some vids on youtube ^^'
thank you guys for links and updates ^_^/

As for the setlist guesses for the free album, I think we're all ****ed!!

Pretty much... I'll wait for a more concrete word on the setlist before I decide... I'm wondering if I can figure out who got the closest bet. We'll see...

TG · **Reply #350 on:** August 08, 2010, 11:17:03 PM

Donate the money for the album to charity

Ulquiorra · **Reply #351 on:** August 08, 2010, 11:20:27 PM

Tg and rafaelo had the exact same setlist predictions, their posts were right next to each other, very odd. Not exactly accusing rafaelo of anything here. English is definatly not his native tongue so he might not have know the rules properly.

mC · **Reply #352 on:** August 08, 2010, 11:24:58 PM

The first YouTube clip...well...it's more than what I got from the stream...

denx · **Reply #353 on:** August 08, 2010, 11:26:23 PM

crap, i just wake up when the show is over

Ulquiorra · **Reply #354 on:** August 08, 2010, 11:27:34 PM

*facepalm* Oh well, don't worry about it, we barely got to see or hear anything at all, and the setlist wasn't really "blow you away" kind of stuff, it was okay though.

4. Kurenai (with hide on the big screen, Yoshiki on piano and Sugizo on violin)

Wait, you're kidding me right? They did a playback guitar solo, here!?! And showed some guy suddenly out of nowhere on a 50ft monitor that almost noone there knew about?

That is epic! It sounds so dramatic, I bet people in the crowd were like WTF!

Thanks to everyone who posted links, pictures, streams etc! It has been a fun night (even though I wasn't actually at Lollapalooza)!!!
