Matthias, did you see the merch they posted? Seeing that makes me think that I won't need any cash for merch........ LOL

No I haven't. Well I have seen the merch in their online shop, but I hope they'll make some good stuff for the concert.

And not something like this

which is an insolence.

Well the merch for this concert appears to be equally uninspired. I can't figure out where I saw it though, can't find it now.

Really? O.ò Please stop it... I'm okay with the album coming out later. I didn't expected it this early anyway...

Thanks. Well, guess I won't be buying that much lol The hoodie at least looks okay.

Thx for the link. Hmm seems like I don't need more than 25£.

AsukaMiyu · **Reply #98 on:** February 27, 2017, 08:25:36 PM

LOOOOOOOOL, guys! Apparently the post with the merch was taken down. XD
Probably they didn't like all the negative comments.

And yeah, the 'normal' shirt and the hoodie look okay but I'm not sure if i'm willing to spend so much money on that...

Thanks for the link. I don't think I need anything. Sorry but everything looks cheap IMO.

Ha...ha... is it another joke? LOL
Again, unless I have the album in my hands, I don't believe Yoshiki anymore.
Didn't he say the album is almost finish since x year(s) ago?

Think he said he was mixing the other version of La Venus. Apparently on 3 different continents in 3 days.

I don't know what I expect anymore. I'm thrilled that the concert seems to actually happen and the soundtrack will have new(-ish) songs. I can wait a few more...years...for the album.

Haha no wonder I couldn't find it if they took it down. I was really hoping to buy some stuff as they have often had really nice merch for other concerts, but this is just not something I'm willing to pay for

The hoodie is kinda alright, but not really something I'm about to fork over £50 for.

Crimson · **Reply #104 on:** February 27, 2017, 09:08:34 PM

Just printed concert tickets, movie ticket, HMV signing ticket, plane ticket... Think I'm just about ready to go

Really getting excited now

Anyone else going to the movie thing tomorrow?

AsukaMiyu · **Reply #105 on:** February 27, 2017, 09:11:22 PM

Only getting to London later this week, so no movie for me.

I'm afraid it will take quite some more time until I'm able to see the whole movie. >_<

Guruxo · **Reply #106 on:** February 27, 2017, 09:28:35 PM

I won't be going to see the movie at any of the showings because they're playing it before the concert (with deleted scenes

)
Also, I agree that the merch is VERY expensive for what it is... £10 for wristbands?!? Are you serious?!?

I'll probably only get the La Venus T-Shirt since it's the only design I really like...

Did you notice they stopped announcing the album release on the concert?

According to Yoshiki at the Metal Hammer Facebook Live Q&A, it's not done yet.

"...next few ... or severel month. I promise!"

Yeah right....

Crimson · **Reply #109 on:** February 27, 2017, 10:09:09 PM

But the version they're showing at the concert is shorter than the normal version, isn't it? Makes you think that by "deleted scenes" they mean that they deleted some scenes

I'm mainly going tomorrow for the Q&A - who would miss the opportunity to actually see Yoshiki give the same answers to the same questions

nb · **Reply #110 on:** February 27, 2017, 10:39:13 PM

plz, can you ask pata about his cat? =^.^=

lol'd => deleted szenes = they deleted some szenes. and yes, it's a "special" cut.

Crimson · **Reply #111 on:** February 27, 2017, 11:04:28 PM

I can't imagine Pata would even be there tomorrow. And I can't really see myself asking any kind of questions. I'm awfully shy, don't know if I'll even manage to mumble anything at the signing or if I'll just stand there paralyzed with fear $:-\$ What do we want to know about the cat?

I would have gone to the movie but I already saw it at SXSW and when Yoshiki came back to Austin again for a QA showing. I'm less interested in seeing it again so soon, but somewhat interested if the film showing at the event is actually somewhat different. Otherwise, I may pick up the Blu-Ray so I can show it to a few friends after we get back. Plus it was pretty cool to see my wife and I in the VIP section when they show footage from the MSG concert. ^_^

So unexpected. /s

10 years is not enough for Yoshiki to record an album while he is too busy inflating his ego.

Ohhh!

I thought 'deleted scenes' meant they added some scenes that weren't originally meant to be there! Oops!

A new album after 21 years - enough time to raise a child & send him/her to college! Several months more? No big deal.

Coming soon & I promise, same old answers

I'd love to know if Amethyst will be included in the new album. That's the only VUK song Toshl hasn't sung, no?

Guruxo · **Reply #117 on:** February 28, 2017, 04:05:41 PM

If you're in the UK you might be able to see We Are X on Thursday 2nd March. It's only on that night and it's in a lot of different cities. I managed to find one where I live, so it's just a matter of me persuading my parents to take me now

Mhm. I agree. I honestly thought they'd show the full version at the concert, since it is y'know XDAY $:-\$
