Just checked out a rip of it at last...damn I had no idea it would be so soon. First impressions are pretty good but yeah I'm hoping there's a full version with a guitar solo.

Here is the full version of I.V. that was ripped from the SAW4 DVD. Still not positive if this is the final version that will be released as a single, I've heard rumors that the unedited version is a lot longer.

ENJOY \m/

credit to Menacia over at Tonberry forums. His rip also included about a minute of the song played after I.V., so I edited that out, so it stops right when the piano stops.

X Japan press conference to be held on the 20th. They will be playing Tokyo Dome at the end of March. A hide memorial concert, European tour and new album will follow.
Please, please, please... Come to America! Shit, Yoshiki's such a Hollywood whore nowadays that they should be playing out there first.

hhahahaa  :w00t:!

true, true, consider how much press he did in "american english" compare to say, french or german  8)

now a REAL surprise is if he did a tour BESIDES sanfran/west coast; with the coverage of the internet, heck, he could prb tour mid-states and still get a full house   :lol:

There's a bunch of torrents up over at jpopsuki and most of the show is up on youtube. I only downloaded X's and Luna Sea's sets, but they were awesome. Best part was the muteki band at the end of X's set.
For the spread beaver thing, all the band members played live and they played hide's vocals over the speakers.

Weird I just saw X-Japan is going to have a concert in Paris next month.
"Lucky" french having such a strong connection to Japan.

Anyway I thought about going there but some online shop lists tickets for 214$ D:
It's probably worth it for fans but I'm not fan enough to spend that much... especially not since I would also have to pay for a flight/train ticket as well  :bleed eyes:
Hopefully they'll have success in Europe though
ChrNo, I hope you are happy

Thought it might be important to bump this thread again.  Today's the 11th anniversary of hide's death.  Just wanted to throw that out there for the fans who might have forgotten, or if its slipped their minds or whatever.  I'm crankin' the X ballads today for sure.

haven't forgot it bro..and I'm absolutely sure that none of the fans have forgot it either..

I've been playing some songs in memory of one of the best guitarists there ever played, foreign or domestic.
