Hide commited suicide. The others are all original (for the most part). Yoshiki is all that matters though.

How are they going to sell enough tickets for this one ? Aren't they practically unknown outside of Japan, having one song getting some worldwide exposure notwithstanding?

Still, hope they can pull it off. A UK tour would make me a happy chappy.

I don't know, but I do know Yoshiki in past years has been popular among the stars. I know he made apperances at movie premiers and other such events. His popularity could bring a could sized crowd.

Not sure many people have heard about them in France...
Then, they'll probably be playing a small venue...

We Asians rule!! Hahaha! Just saw this and what a coincidence! I played at a gig last night and there was this 80's glam band (set with pink jackets, leather tights and fucky hair) and they covered X Japan!

It happens that the concert will be during and near the Japan Expo, an anime convention I believe, so LOTS of people who know and love X will be there. I'm not sure it can sold out but it could. I sure will try to go see them, I was really sad for not going to the last live (money was the main issue, flying to japan ain't cheap !).

Just my 2 cents,
Chris

P.S. : Now if I could interview Yoshiki that would be awesome :)

Actually i believe there's probably more fans of X in France than in the US :).
