Welcome to Gaia! ::

J rock festival


Hi everyone!




I also wanted to thank you for the comments on the last blog regarding............. X Japan.....

I still haven't figured out what to do with this matter….. but when I decide, please know that each one of you helped me with this decision, which I really appreciate!!!





OK…… let me change the subject…….

More than a year ago, some of my friends asked me if I could organize a Japanese Rock event in America……… then I said……. OK! ..... Well that's it…… We're doing it.


When I used to live in Tokyo, I organized several rock concerts….. So this time I'm doing it in Los Angeles with several partners. ….. Some small details may change, but we have 9 bands coming from Japan and will be performing at the "Wiltern Theater" in L.A. on May 25, 26th.

(The band lineup will be:alice nine., Vidoll, Duel Jewel, Kagrra, Miyavi, DéspairsRay, Merry, Girugamesh, and MUCC.




Also, at the theater, the fourth member of the band will be announced.

I'm not performing….. but I'll be there to make sure everything rocks.





Another thing….. Last week I was asked to do another soundtrack of a new Hollywood movie…… I just finished reading the script…… this one is really, really weird, but very interesting……. Maybe I should do it…… well my managers and attorneys started negotiating with the movie studio…… hopefully everything works out!



I love what I do….. but sometimes the pressure of the schedule is intense, and stressful, because I really care about the quality of the music, no matter what project I'm involved with.





I feel like I just opened the door a little bit, that has been closed for several years after the sad incident….. Well things start flooding into it….. I guess I'm lucky…… but I'm a little tired…..

Maybe I've been working in the studio too long…… maybe I should get out and perform!!!


……..OOPS!!! I just spilled the melted chocolate ice cream on the keyboard…… AHHHHH… (to be specific: which is chocolate ice cream made of rice which my nutritionist recommended.)…..…AHHHHHHH!!!!!
…… I'm so clumsy….. Well I should go and clean my desk…. Hope to meet you soon!!!!!





Love,




YOSHIKI



Yes Yoshiki wrote this in his blog... myspace.com/yoshiki
Visit it and for those in LA.... GLOMP YOSHIKI FOR ME!!!! seriously, tell him to bring this festival to the east coast.... BEG HIM FOR ME!

*Sobs* I REALLY REALLY wish I could go.

There's just not enough j-rock love in the South.

I know how you feel. I have a friend in LA who is going and she is going to make a poster for me to hold up for Miyavi and if she sees Yoshiki-san she's going to talk to him for me.

That's something I want to see more than life itself. OMG! Did they really sell out that fast? O_O;;;; I wanted to go to see Miyavi, Vidoll, and Alice Nine. But I'll never get to now.......stupid Florida!

I wanted to go sooo badly! It was the day after my graduation, though ,and I couldn't drive out their quickly enough. I could have gotten tickets too...One of my friends would have bought them for me! He bought one for himself.....and didn't get pictures...I could have killed him.
