Discussion time

Can we take a minute and talk about Taiji’s scene in the Week End PV

Without questioning it, I originally thought that that person who shot him was a guy and he was like selling Taiji some drugs and then shot him because maybe he idk owed money to someone or some shit but they were friends and he didn’t really want to do it because look how guilty that dude looks who shot him

But then when I showed my friend this shit she immediately told me that was a girl (I’m sorry heavy metal dudes and ladies looked a lot alike back then okay) and she was breaking up with him or some shit

So now I just want to know everyone’s take on this scene, thanks :B

After our 1989 major debut, our lives and tours totally changed. In order to accommodate the amount of fans we had, we switched from playing livehouses to playing halls. Thanks to that, we also stopped using our white whale.

Both back then and now, I’ve always liked doing lives in livehouses. You can see the audience’s faces well, even each person’s sweat. When I see the crowd’s happy faces, I’m able to have fun naturally.

If I may say so myself, from the time I was little I was pretty skillful. Like when I started something new, I’d be able to do it without any real trouble. Because of that, during the indies period of X, almost all of our costumes were made by me.

These days, long, colourful hair isn’t out of the ordinary, but in those days it was an obstacle that could keep you from getting even a part-time job. However, without working, we wouldn’t have been able to afford studio fees. And above all else, we wouldn’t have been able to live.
