Lately, 2 friends have been going on and on about X Japan.
It's usual...
Just so I am sick and tired of hearing their cute little girl girl fan-like comments.
Espacially this great buddy of mine who goes HIDE HIDE HIDE HIDE HIDE all day.
Here's some tidbits for those who care.
Contary to popular belief, most idiots in the forums and blah think that Yoshiki was reading a suicide note from Hide.
That is utter rubbish since that paper was just the words he wanted to use for his speech.
Yoshiki founded the band before you bozos were even born.
1983 or 84.
His ever supportive mother sold the family business to provide the start-up funds as Yoshiki could not find a producer to Back X since he was an unknown.
X's principal music influence was the american hard rock band KISS which Hide idolised.
Yoshiki renamed X to X Japan in 1992.
After hide's death.
He swore never to touch his drum set as it brought back too many memories.
He broke that promise after a while and now manages bands like Dir En Grey.
At the end of 1995, hide met with a sick fan suffering from Peripheral Nerve Regenerative Disorder. There's only few people in the whole world with a serious case of this disease.
The following year, hide registered itself for a bone marrow transplant donor, again for that fan girl which he stays in contact with.
hide's death is a tragic accident.Guitarists often tie a band around their necks to relief the pain and aches usually part and parcel of their instrument of choice.
He was dead-drunk and fell asleep while resting his head tied to a band on his door knob.
He leaves his fan with his world record of throwing a television set the furthest from any hotel room.
The brilliant guitarist also spells his name with a h instead of caps.
hide.
Toshi the bastard is in fact a genius with dreams of becoming a doctor.
He is mostly hated by the fans who blame him for leading the band into their prematurate separation.
No one is interested in the rest.
I'm sorry if you are.
I say just surf the net or something...
