Voiceless Screaming, on piano. Not from the concert but from Yoshiki Channel extra. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6USkNtLjAMw

Is anyone also watching the livestream?
While the concert is obviously much calmer than usually, it had some pretty cool song versions there! :D

They even did a part of X with just Piano and Toshi and the fans singing along. That was quite fun!

...When the morning begins
I'll be in the next chapter...

Did anyone record any of the live stream?

We are not trying to keep the legacy—we are trying to move forward, so our sound is going to change. I’m ready to be criticized, for example by fans saying "you should rather be this style." I’m ready for it, I’m okay with any concept of criticism-Yoshiki

Drain in a lower key was bizarre.

hmmm one of the few times I wished I still had kept my Jpopsuki account. I wonder if someone will re-encode it. Hyde26, want to give it a go ? :)

I'm fine with the 32 GB if hyde26 is able to upload to Mega, for example :D I don't mind HQ video :P

Keep an eye on YouTube. The whole concert was up there in three parts, but was taken down rather quickly...I am sure more copies will crop up over the next few days.

There is a torent floating around called " X JAPAN - Live Broadcast! X JAPAN WORLD TOUR 2017 WE ARE X Acoustic Special Miracle ~Kiseki no Yoru~ 6DAYS (WOWOW Prime 2017.07.17)" for example on jpopsuki...

Yeah, I got a copy. Once I manage to find some time, I will convert to a more consumable format and upload to a file sharing place. Friday/Saturday, if anyone is interested. I could only sneak peek at it, but it looks/sounds amazing. Toshi is SHINING and Sugiz gets to show off some really nice guitar skills (we only see him with his signature riffs, but here he does something really different). Heath is also pretty good with fingerstyle (there ya go Heath haters). They also seem to enjoy it, even Pata smiles from time to time LOL. There is something like 20 minutes of Yoshiki crying and apologizing. LOL. But he really does look VERY tired at the end, not his usually bubbly fluttering butterfly self running around.

And speaking of Toshi at his peak, this gem of a moment from the concert. Go to 1 minute into the video for when he starts singing.

https://youtube.com/watch?v=pnZEFWyETS8


By the way I used to be a user on here a few years ago, was just 'Ulquiorra' back then, I used to do long, long ranting posts about the band/yoshiki, not sure if I can jog any memories here but basically I decided to leave after yoshiki hyped a huge announcement and it just turned out to be his Madame Tussauds wax model, I made a long long rant about how this was one fake announcement/album delay too far and that I was done with the band for good at that point and left. I've gotten into the band again since I've changed my thoughts on a few things, so hello again!

If this part of the post is too unrelated to the topic I completely understand and I'll remove it or post it in the returning members forum or something.

Haha, good to have you back man. I was wondering where you went. Band still hasn't really done or released shit. I left for a while, too

Also, these shows do look pretty great. Lots of deep cuts in the set, and a good way to adapt to Yoshiki's injuries.

The show was better than I expected, even half of it being Toshi+Yoshiki.
Toshi had an energy that I didn't see in a long time, Sugizo is growing on the band, Pata seemed well and Heath was being the bassist. At first the songs being played in a lower key sounded weird, but listening a second time made me feel them differently.

For the future I hope Yoshiki recovers well, they play those songs in their normal key again and if the Heath mic will never come back, Sugizo was great on Week End backing vocals.

Any chance of getting a lighter version of this show somehow?

I will convert it over the weekend and reduce the file size. (But that means quality will also be worse).

Went to the concert on 7/17. It was awesome!!! Toshl was in his best condition, almost like he was back to his prime (for me, it was 91 to 96).

Watch the closeups of Yoshiki's hands. He is shaking while playing. Can't imagine the physical pain he endured during these concerts.
