My friend sent that to me when I linked her the abc news story.......Maybe this will give me a lot of glares from X fans now but I like knowing this kind of stuff...there aren't any videos or stories circulating out there like this about hyde or kaz is there? :x

If I remember right, Roger from Tainted Reality stated that when he heard he was going to interview Yoshiki, he had that video in mind and was paranoid about Yoshiki being so uptight during the interview, but (again, this is just from my bad memory) it turned out that the video just showed him on a bad day and that he's actually a pretty laid back person. I mean, I guess I can respect that. We all have bad days and we all tend to do stupid things when we're upset.

HYDE even admits that the recording process of a song is downright miserable, so I wouldn't doubt it if he and K.A.Z both have had quite a few spats with the producers and the other staff involved. It doesn't make them bad people, it just shows that they're really concerned about the quality of their music.

Also, thanks so much Usagi for posting the original news story. As blatantly misleading as it was, it was surprisingly a decent segment.

I don't know. I understand being stressed, but that doesn't mean you have to take it out on people...this has really affected me all day because this was exactly how my exboyfriend spoke to me when I was just trying to help him and I don't think people realize how hurtful this can be when it's directed at you........

ugh I put my personal life in there but it's kinda been an off morning :/

I'm sorry to hear about your boyfriend. But in this case I think is more normal to curse or freak out towards people you don't care about (not in a personal, intimate way) under severe stress than to attack someone you love. Of course it hurts a lot more when you are in a relationship with the person that does that to you and is in no means healthy. But while working depending on the environment and the stress they have, things like shown on the video can happen now and then.

I guess like any other human being he apologized afterward. Is not like he is hitting him or something, he's just upset with the results and we all curse even to the sky when under certain situations.

Even band members argue, they are after all human beings, not need to see a video of it to be true. Plus most artists try to act different when a camera is on or when they are on a stage, so we don't know how they are on different times.

Yeah...yesterday was a weird day for me lol It was like Friday the 13th came early or something :P I'm better now but that video of Yoshiki really got me going...he said things almost word for word that my ex said to me on one occassion in particular...and he's Japanese too so it was same accent, everything...REALLY touched a nerve :/

............BUT I'M BETTER NOW

And yeah people are human. I don't like seeing this side of a person, but even those of us who try to be good people slip up. The creative process can be extremely frustrating...as I writer I've come to know this personally and despite how cheerful and cute guys like Hyde appear you know they have to have times when they're angry and frustrated.

I guess what I'm saying is.....I forgive Yoshiki for being a human being. But I should probably never watch that video again for my own emotional wellbeing haha

Man get over it. I'm sure hyde has spoke alittle like that when he's been in the studio till 4am in the morning or whatever.

Remember hyde is the person who wrote the song 'all dead'

"I wish your all dead~(singing emoticon)~" - hyde.

If you had watched the whole 40 minute docu of that clip Yoshiki told the guy to do something and he started playing with triplets. He pays them to do what he wants.

I hope they let me go from one line to the other since is in the same place. TOT and I'm going to both shows x_x.

Have u noticed how HIGH the rates for hotels are because of Vamps, Comic Con, Anime Fest, Ami, Puffy Yumi and X Japan?

I seriously doubt the high hotel costs are due to Vamps and other acts. Its because people aren't traveling as much because we're in a recession so hotels have to spike their costs just like everything else in this country has. I'm almost certain VAMPS are not the cause of it.

That and the fact that they're popular places like LA.

:-D GREAT! now you can see VAMPS and X Japan!!! yay

[off topic]Thanks to this thread I became more interested in X Japan lately. Meanwhile I am really in love with a few of their ballads, for example Crucify my love and Tears. I love this clear voice ! Not sure about their faster songs yet. What would you recommend?[/off topic]
