I hope they will do Rusty Nail and Dahlia THEY MUST DO DAHLIA, I believe it's an approachable enough song for the western audience? They must really play their cards right if they want this to work for them. 2 Furik and LIDL reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheZigzagoon 670 Posted January 6, 2018 And it was on X Japan's performance day at Coachella 2018 that we all witness Yoshiki's head fall off I swear he isn't supposed to be drumming for a while. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

suji 8317 Posted April 7, 2018 X JAPAN may be one member short at their Coachella performance - it's been announced that SUGIZO is having visa issues, and this may cause him to be unable to perform with the band. YOSHIKI has also confirmed via an ~emergency interview~ with BARKS that they may need a support guitarist. http://shattered-tranquility.net/index.php/04/07/visa-issues-may-prevent-sugizo-appearance-at-coachella/ 1 -NOVA- reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lichtlune 915 Posted April 7, 2018 It seems it's really difficult for bands to get visa's for the U.S. This type of thing is always happening. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr.0 619 Posted April 7, 2018 I can totally see Yoshiki using this to back out of the performance tbh. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
123Sandman321 377 Posted April 7, 2018 Do they honestly need even a single guitarist for Yoshiki's 45-minute-long piano-wanking? 1 2 WhirlingBlack, emmny and -NOVA- reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LIDL 692 Posted April 11, 2018 (edited) I thought it is weird for Sugizo to have visa issues, I thought he had been touring to States before, right? Edited April 11, 2018 by LIDL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

violetchain 912 Posted April 11, 2018 Felt kind of sad that Sugizo wasn't going to be there before (especially because Sugizo was one of the biggest highlights for me when I saw them years and years ago), but after the hologram announcement, yeah, he might've dodged a bullet with this one...

rekzer 599 Posted April 11, 2018 Quote X Japan will play on both April 14 and April 21 at the festival, and will also be screening their award-winning documentary We Are X between the two dates. Oh, and even better, X Japan is working on their first album since 1996 due out sometime later this year. hahahahaahahhahha 1 inartistic reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tokage 5930 Posted April 13, 2018 So wait.. They're using holograms, but are also gonna have Sugizo, Miya and Wes Borland around? What the fuck do they need that many guitarists for?
