It looks like Yoshiki and Toshi will be at the Expo this year after all! The recorded video they made was apparently played at the press conference or something...

YES! Finally!
Me too, I'm sure they will annonce the Paris Live there together!
It will be the first time for me to go to Paris too.
Now, I am excited and happy

Exciting times ahead!

Wasn't expecting that picture of Toshi in the link, judging from his clothes and the background in the pic I'm guessing that its from the part of the Hollywood pv where they're inside that ballroom.

The "several times" part just made me grin

y0shisgrl · **Reply #8 on:** June 01, 2010, 07:02:43 PM

@ Ashemanu - I had the same reaction. lol

myuu · **Reply #9 on:** June 01, 2010, 09:41:34 PM

I kinda have the feeling that they will perform forever love together as a surprise.

Ann1958 · **Reply #10 on:** June 01, 2010, 09:47:16 PM

Yeah!!! That would be a very big surprise!!!

Who could guess such a surprise like THAT?
Forever Love is good for me, never saw them live, so, whatever they perform I will be happy...but actually I'd like to be surprised with acoustic version of 'Born to be free'.

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAA....
OH YES......THE UNIVERSE HATES ME.
YESH, YESH.....for once in my life I decided to gather all my money and find the guts to go for a trip in Japan on my own and on the exact days that I will be there Toshi and Yoshiki are showing up in France....
This is seriously amazing....hilarious...awesome...excellent....*goes somewhere else to spaz/freak out*

Ann1958 · **Reply #12 on:** June 01, 2010, 10:05:22 PM

You made me laughing Roseofpain84!!!
That is really a bizar coincidence. But when you are in Japan, you can see the concert at Nissan stadion, which will be a really concert with the whole X Japan. In Paris it will be Forever Love.
Are you from France?

roseofpain84 · **Reply #13 on:** June 01, 2010, 11:21:18 PM

I won't be in Japan when that live will take place...but I will be from June 26th till July 5th....
The expo in France is July 1st to July 4th...so uh..yeah.
And no, I'm not from France...I'm from Greece. But I went to France both times that a live was announced and canceled.....^^;;;
But well....WELL, hopefully them going to the expo means that they WILL actually play a goddamn live in France (well, anywhere in europe) some day and that I will manage to see them...
It dose bother me that this stupid coincidence happened now and I do feel the universe is plotting against me but....well..WELL. XDD

AsukaMiyu · **Reply #14 on:** June 02, 2010, 04:20:21 AM

roseofpain, you're not the only one who's in Japan during that time, back back home before the yokohama concert. XD *looking at a couple of friends*

And I don't have time/money/someone to go there with either. |D ...So I diceded to go and see Gackt new my hometown instead...YEAAAAH! 8DDD *headdesk* Well, I better save up my next (...) Paris trip for the actualy concert anyway.

btw, yoshiki's french cracked me up... XD

They will certainly announce the life in Europe at Japan Expo. I feel it

When you are back from Japan, don't plan other travels until they have done the so long awaited life in Europe!

They are gonna do an acoustic performace right? It says so on the Japan expo website.

Sander · **Reply #17 on:** June 02, 2010, 07:32:13 PM

It doesn't say so, but it sure does imply! Well I would be surprised if they didn't do at least one acoustic song (which I think is all the people at the expo are getting, maybe two songs).

I'd vote for Without You

Ann1958 · **Reply #18 on:** June 02, 2010, 07:48:06 PM

And: Born to be free
We will get perhaps the premiere of that song at Paris. Postponing 3 times makes debts, we have earned that

A great unplugged moment
between YOSHIKI's piano and ToshI's voice... don't miss it!

How does it not say so?

It's even held in the JE Live house, which is a seperate part of Japan Expo, something you also have to pay for separately. I'd doubt they would simply do an announcement there.

Can anyone translate what they're saying in the video message?

Who is going to JE in Paris? I will be there. Anyone else?

Roy · **Reply #23 on:** June 05, 2010, 02:56:02 PM

Haha, now that they made video-message, it makes the whole thing look so serious. Roy likes! They've put some effort to it.

OOh, I would so love to go! If there only would be someone from Finland going too, travelling alone is not my thing and I know only few words french. XDD
But since I was there 2008, and it was cool, I'd love to go this time too. Let's see~
Guess I shouldn't be peeking this thread anymore since my desire to go is growing. : <<

Jorge · **Reply #24 on:** June 05, 2010, 03:31:08 PM

Thank god I live only 500 km from Paris. Going alone if I have too.

What? Since when do you have to pay seperately for the JE Live House??? @@;;;
If that's true, it's actually pretty stupid to do it there as they'll get a way smaller audience than at the "normal" con... (then again, all the music fans will be there anyway....I guess...)

Ann1958 · **Reply #26 on:** June 06, 2010, 11:36:43 AM

The JE Live house is free!

Code: [Select]

l’accès à la J.E. Live House est libre, sans supplément de prix !

that is stated on the site of JE.
Translation: Access to JE Live House is free, whithout supplement price.
The price for 4/7 on JE, day that Yoshiki and Toshi will be there = 12 euro, and that is for all of JE, included Livehouse and Comic Con.
And JE Livehouse has a capacity of 8000 persons.

see: http://www.japan-expo.com/fr/contenu/je-live-house_22.htm

Ann1958 · **Reply #27 on:** June 06, 2010, 11:47:52 AM

Actually, you will never have the chance to see them for that price anymore: 12 euro!!!
Plus the trip to Paris of course

Ann1958 · **Reply #28 on:** June 06, 2010, 01:17:15 PM

Ami, it's actually gonno cost me tons of money, because it will be our Summertrip, which we do once in 5 years...because I cannot do more, being alone with students.
I promised my daughters a trip to Paris after exams.
I just have changed the date of our trip to be able to see Yoshiki and ToshI.
So we are going to visit Paris for 4 days, and 1 day JE to see the founders of X. They better not cancel it...But if they cancel, that is just one day more for us to see Paris.
Versailles (the castle...), a bit of Louvre, Notre Dame, etc...and X!

I will take as much photo's as possible!!! But to post them, I will need help as usual...

Ann1958 · **Reply #29 on:** June 10, 2010, 05:35:54 PM

Time of showcase of Yoshiki and ToshI at Japan Expo is also known.

http://www.japan-expo.com/fr/planning/2010-07-04/

From 14 u 00 to 14 u 45.

Showcase --> is that the same meaning as concert?
