I forgot to give the translation from the press conference in Nissan Stadium that Keiko Hamaguchi translated:
http://natalie.mu/music/news/36096 YOSHIKI and ToshI had a press conference on August 12th at Nissan stadium which is the venue of their next concert. At the press conference, TAIJI also appeared. When ToshI was asked about enthusiasm for this concert, ToshI said, "I think it will be the kind of the concert for starting the World Tour. The greatest stage is prepared for departure to the world from Japan".
TAIJI, who will be on the stage of X JAPAN after an interval of 18 years ,said, "Under the name of deceased HIDE,It is honor which is more than I deserve that I would perform with this two guys.I'll do my best as much as possible. And I hope to continue it.
YOSHIKI, who will welcome the former sworn friend ,said "I've never thought that we would be on the same stage . I felt that something good happen,if you continue music.I remember when we debuted.
ToshI ,who met TAIJI before YOSHIKI would meet,said "It passed 18 years .but he's like a Childhood friend. We talked a lot of old story. I heard his body was ruined ,but he looked fine and has very positive thinking. So I told about it to YOSHIKI.
The concert will be held 2 days after,but TAIJI said "I haven't heard which song we play yet..."
YOSHIKI and ToshI said, "What?? We decided which song we will play,right? The transmission of the information for X JAPAN is too bad...(laugh). When TAIJI was belonging the band, you were so strict to that kind of thing..., You always said "Decides Clearly" like that...
About the Lollapalooza, YOSHIKI said, " That was a kind of debut game,so we tried with feeling of that we would do everything.That feeling is as same as when we debuted in Japan. I worried about that we would over the time,so I prepared a clock on the stage, But when show started, the clock wasn't there....So I paniced but took my iphone out and was confirming the time during the show.
ToshI said, "Actually he is the type of keeping the time.
About the North American Tour,
YOSHIKI said, "We'll announce the schedule on 16th in US all together".
About the concert at Nissan stadium.
YOSHIKI said, "I think it will be the special show,because TAIJI will play as a guest ana I really appriciat to HEATH ,because he accepted it as the same bassist.
