Des 289 Posted June 10, 2011 I really don't like the idea of a second vocalist... but we'll see. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pretsy 1343 Posted June 12, 2011 I never paid any special attention on the looks of vk/vk-ish acts lately (incl. Gackt's bg band) But: Shinya looks so dumb with his guyliner eyes and those YFC clothes - he should stick to LS last live outfit. Not sure about whitey though - but he needs a haircut (no, not in gackt's style) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted June 12, 2011 I don't see a problem with those guys. As long as they can do their job good, there's absolutey nothing wrong about it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Des 289 Posted June 12, 2011 They look absolutely ridiculous though. Worse than an average visual kei band even. Everything about the outfit is ugly. There's no sense of style among these men anymore? Seems like it. Hopefully their music and live perfomances are gonna have some style. No crappy abingdon boys school lives please, because honestly, that's what this whole look reminds me of. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

merrik 0 Posted June 13, 2011 Guess, he has new haircutXD Nice thing, if you ask me. Also, I am going to his concert in Poland, so I'll tell you, if it really "going worse", but honestly...I am not sure. I am weird a little but I kinda like his new style. And music...mostly. I hope his new album will be ok. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

merrik 0 Posted June 14, 2011 Well, I like his voice and music, and I am really curious how he'll be sing at YFC (its obvious that Gackt'll sing more, but well, I am curious what is an aim of second voc, at all) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Messenger84 253 Posted June 14, 2011 The best thing in this whole tour is the charity topic..thats all If I will go..that would be for Japan not for Gackt...but unfortunately I bought tickets to Paris for NEGA so... still wish you good setlist and more GACKTs vocal than JoNs heh Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Des 289 Posted June 14, 2011 So Jon isn't bad. But he is nothing special either. It's a voice we've all heard before. Many singers have a similar sound. And this voice is nothing compared to GACKT's, which is way more powerful. A little fake with the overuse of vibrato all the time, but still very powerful. Jon lacks energy. I can't see this combination going right. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
merrik 0 Posted June 14, 2011 we'll see in something about three weeks, how it'll be. Although I am rather optimistic. Or I am trying to be. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
