I think any guitarist in Japan Yoshiki had in mind knew to never work with such a controlling dramaqueen :P

*dies*

wtf...i've not heard limp bizkit, but THE NAME ALONE and their fandom drive me away.

why not a rotation of J-guitarists who knew hide as a friend and the other members of x japan as well? such as imai *cough*

><; ugh

i think Imai is above...Yoshiki's need for more drama. >.> god, how i hope.

A rotation would be the COOLEST idea, but do you think they would even think of something that awesome? Probably not.

Actually, they did.
The earliest reports said a rotation of 10 guitarists was expected for the lives.

but, man, imagine the payroll, LOL!!!!

Amen Maam!

what remains of X-Japan are greedy rock stars attempting to regain popularity/get richer by milking the fact that it's been 10 years since hide died. 's all a midlife crisis thing.


sorry for popping in here like that. ;-; i get enraged over this reunion.

Actually, I think all the remaining members are going to take turns air guitaring hide's part.

I had kept hearing Sugizo was going to be the replacement.
I found this acceptable because Sugizo and hide were collaborating artists with eachother, if not friends. J would also be very applicable under these circumstances.

I don't agree to this selection of a guitarist, because it seems like they just grabbed someone off the board to perform hide's work. I believe music of such a sensitive nature should be performed by a guitarist that was closely affiliated with hide.

Miyavi is not worthy of those shoes, I'm sorry!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sure, Chirolyn worked with Miyavi, but that doesn't cut it. sorry.

I can see Imai (BUCK TICK) being an acceptable replacement.
HELL, I'd swallow my vomit and watch J do it!!!!! (lol!)

God, I'm going to the 03/28 show.
This does not bode well with me.

...I'm going to confess something from my dark past... long, LONG time ago (about 7 years), I was a Limp Bizkit fan. I even went to a live. And let me tell you something: Wes Borland was the only thing that deserved the ticket. But I agree that Imai would be more than perfect to take Hide's role for the tour, just remember that photo session of both of them in witch clothes, like a master ans his apprentice XDDDD.

i owned and LB cd *DIESSSSSS x100000* idk i think everyone did in the 90s though...its just how it was we didn't know any better! ;A;

Haaa, I owned 3 cd's >__> But fortunately enough, Radiohead saved my soul XD. And now that Radiohead is in a sad decadence, BT has brighten my life again :)
Saludos!
