friezaess | At home in a place beyond this realm

I don`t want to leave this place... this wonderful world that X lives in.

Please don`t ever make me leave. Work, studies, real life... none of that matters. More than anything, I want to live in that beautiful, tragic, mysterious dimension where everyone has passion... and wings.

I don`t know why, but I was increadibly nervous. It`s not every day a dream comes true.

The second the lights went down I couldn`t stop screaming.

hide was there. He really was... they had a hologram of him projected alongside them. He would fade in and out... And video clips of him were randomly inserted into the performance to add to the vibe. They even replayed one of his solos on the massive screens.

Toshi and Yoshiki sung for him. `Without You` is such a beautiful song, even moreso with lyrics. I wish I could have understood what he was saying. I sobbed desperatley throughout.

`I.V.`... I don`t know what to say. When sung by 150 000 people it sounds like a heartfelt hymn.

`Art of Life` was the final song for the night. Before the infamous piano solo kicked in, Yoshiki `died` and `needed` to be carried off stage. This is the same man who destroyed his drum kit once again. Always one for the drama, that boy.

It was worth standing in line for three hours in temperatures so low I couldn:t work my fingers.

EDIT: Jesus Fucking Christ, he fainted for real. If this were any other time I'd be in hysterics over the irony, but my God. He was just lying there and... Yoshiki...
