This was about 8 months before I was introduced to X by my Jump school buddy Mutoh Keiji when I spent a 3 week TDY in Japan...heck I was in my first week of Basic training when this concert happened...good thing I had a primer in Visual Kei thanks to Sigue Sigue Sputnik...33 years later and I still get an email from Yoshiki on my birthday...not bad for an old punk and someone who is revered as a composer...
80s ... edge of destruction... cool phrase to describe heavy metall glam speed metal stylo! Pure gem!! Really they are on the edge.... Edge of destruction it is one of their album, as i remmber...something like this....X
I absolutely adore the look hide was rocking at this show; and I am confident the sparking guitar trick was a homage to his idol Ace Frehley! Does ANYONE out there reading this have any information about a Dahlia tour show in Osaka that was on either Feb 23 1996 or Feb 24 1996 where hide had green hair and was wearing a zebra print suit???? I have only seen one photograph of him from that show and it looked like it was a screen grab - I am on a desperate search for any video evidence of it! Any assistance at all would be greatly appreciated!
