  • X-Japan

    Just in case you forgot, these guys kicked major butt. I hate to admit it, but I downloaded one their Blue Blood Tour shows (at least that's what the file was called - from the looks of things it was probably their farewell tour - anyway) and they rock just as much as on the CD.
    I also downloaded one of Hide's videos. Apparently it was his post-X JPop band - imagine the Chili Peppers with Prince's band and Poison's clothes, and then imagine it sucking even worse [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

    Anyhoo, the concert video I downloaded is 1 of 2 - may as well buy it online to get the other half.

    If you go looking for it, be aware that it was from 1989 - at the height of guys wearing more makeup than girls - a couple of them would make hot chicks, if they weren't guys [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

      I thought Hide nuked himself out during X-Japan, which would make his band pre-X-Japan, right?

        X-Japan was 1988-1996. Hide killed himself in 1998.

            Yeah from what I've read he was huge over there - like Michael Jackson.
