I apologize in advance if this was already posted elsewhere (must have been but can't find it)... How awesome is it to hear Toshi sing Vanishing Love, Sadistic Desire and even Alive at the end ? Too bad X-Japan never got to do this together in the past 2 decades

Anyone knows the band members here? The bassist looks really pretty and the backing vocal/guitarist is so cuuute. :)

Thanks, Teemah! Wow, hearing Toshi perform "Alive" has a lot of significance for me. It's been one of my favorites forever, and I don't even know when they last time they played it live. 89? 90? I've only seen recordings from the pre-Blue Blood era. This was really wonderful.

I watch it yesterday and it was awesome!

Funny to see that the best X (Japan) live we got right now is Toshi solo haha

This made my night. Alive is my favourite song by them, ever. I loved to see 50 year old Toshi perform it after 30 years. Three decades ago he sang it raw, now he sings it nicely cooked, with a tenderness he didn't have before, and it is surprisingly interesting.

The guitar dude did a good job with that solo, despite having my mom's hairdo. It's a pretty complex sequence but quite a genious one. (Thanks, Hide, you sort of rocked, bro).

Toshi needs to ditch that punk jacket, though. And that spiked choker and that cross necklace and those ill-fitting leather trousers. What the fuck is his stylist thinking, swapping wardrobes with a guy like Heath or something?

Woah, I can haz admin colour.

and the hair. please please Toshi get a new hairstylist! he looks like a 60 year old old lady with the hairstyle he sports lately. why do they need to brush his hair outwards? It's seriously cringe-worthy. Unless he considers himself an old lady, which I doubt.

Ah yeah, that hair! Fire that hairstylist, man. They all seem to have a thing with Farrah Fawcett blowouts, though. Yoshiki does them too, sometimes. That's my mom's exact same 'do.
