X Japan World Tour - 090116 in HongKong

Jan 17, 2009 00:12

C.A.P. from my reg blog, coz i just have to talk about it here and everywhere else....

*sighs* after weeks of following the progress of NEWS tour in the lj fandom, i became double sad when i thought about this. there's no X Japan fandom that i can attach myself too, screamingkiai being verryyyy quiet for such a loong time and recently it even refused to let me access it. me! the mod! although i haven't been doing my job as a mod for years...*guilty*

today is the concert. heck, they barely finished it hours ago, i guess... and i'm here, planning my trip to hongkong NEXT MONTH.... talk about wrong timing >_____<> freakin sad.... and i can't get fanreports, much less pictures or fanrecordings... *long sigh*

and there you go, one of the chances of fulfilling one of my life dreams had just passed, and there's nothing i can do about it. the next chance would be.... *takes a peep at obachan's blog*

*another long sigh*

but still, i'm really happy to see this vid.

he wasn't in that jubilant mood like last year during the first X Japan press conference after 10 years, when he was positively beaming and joking about and goofing around with toshi and the audience... but he's well, and that's enough =)

for a moment when i watched that video, i was quite in a shock. perhaps i've been in JE fandom for too long, and even before that i was searching and googling Versailles a lot, and everything's done in japanese, and even nino's interview regarding his iwojima work, although it was in english, it was done haltingly and with really strong japanese accent...

so, when i watched the vid, i was surprised, and i was shaken back to my old pride, that dear yochan speaks english coherently, fluently, and with american-scented japanese accent ^^ i was too used to listen to JE boys attempting to speaks another language as a greeting (when they do concert overseas) but immediately switch back to japanese for the real interview, that when yochan finished his *supposedly* cantonese greetings and switched to English instead of Japanese, i blinked and felt weird momentarily xD

*sigh* i've been abandoning you for too long, yochan, gomen ne....

yoshiki, x japan
