Has anyone ever met any X Japan members?

[purplexpride]

Never in person, just saw them far away. BTW, I once saw Yoshiki about 5 meters away, but so crowded. I think Yoshiki really looks like my older brother in the way of his body size, walks and smiles. So, god-like-worship seemed to be disappeared from him to me just a moment. *lol*

Well, when they came to Toronto and everyone was crowding his private car and the stage door after their performance, I got mobbed up towards Yoshiki when he came out to get in his car (which proved to be very difficult with all his loyal fans around) and I got pushed within 2 feet of him....so if that counts as meeting them.

OH! I actually have something new to add to this thread!!


Soooo, because of our work with Xplosion Online, we were asked by Luna Sea staff to do an interview with band - 5 days before the concert was happening. X_x I was really running in circles because I'd never done an interview before - especially not with such a big band! O_O

Well I don't want to post details in public, but I ended up interviewing Sugizo alone and he was in a very talkative mood, so this was really nice!
I also got some picture signed by him haha... XD

Then... the X tour.... AAAAAAH!!! This was so much stress! I was planning the tour activities while doing my bachelor thesis and actually the tour took place one week before I had to hand in my stuff! O_O However, thing went like planned - at least until Yoshiki burst our plans! LOL

We had this "X Train" project planned for a while, so x fans can take the train from London to Paris together and have some fun. Then, some hours before the train was leaving, Yoshiki suddenly posted that he's taking the train to Paris. OUR TRAIN! ............ WHAT THE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now Yoshiki was making it seem as if we took his train eventhough it was the other way round!!! XD

But well, not late after that, his management showed up and talked to Xplosion so we are warned (...well). Apparently there was a plan to have Yoshiki (and Toshi?) drop by and say hello to us on the train. For whatever reasons, they had to cancel that idea and instead we were asked to wait on the platform and cheer when they are passing by. o_O Which we did. And I was also asked to help actually escorting Yoshiki through the crowd of fans between the platform and the Taxi... @_@
I am still traumatized, I tell you...!

So long story short, this is how I ALMOST met Yoshiki and Toshi but instead ended up escorting them.... 8D

I helped Asu (and a few others) escort Toshi and Yoshiki in Paris... And was on the train... Damn crazy fangirls

Also did an interview with Pata (and the rest of Ra:IN) in Berlin in... 2008? And saw them later in Köln. Crazy bunch of people I say!

Crazy bunch of people I say!

LOL Ra:IN could really come back again, that was fun!

[HARDCORE-BEAVER]

Hey,

something new to add from our latest members? 

[pt_93]

I met Yoshiki twice in New York, he was a complete gentleman. Some of already know how I met him the 2nd time but it’s kind of crazy, I got invited backstage but not going to write all here haha

[Tahemet]

Does the CD signing and the "High 5-event" in London count?

Apart from that I met Yoshiki in Amsterdam when "We are X" was shown at a documentary festival. We just exchanged some words when I asked him to sign a Japanese magazine with him on the cover..
And I met him in Vienna last year when I in brainless fangirl mode tried to take a selfie of us without flipping the screen and he told me so (embarassing....but he was really really nice about it) (nope, not going to share the pic). We were a group of 5-6 girls who had  short chat with him (expressing how grateful we were that he came to Europe, the movie, the new CD, his dog, etc.)

[Teemeah]

I met Yoshiki in Vienna as part of the press. (See interview in my signature  )

[Tahemet]
