LUNA SEA
In 2000 LUNA SEA had announced the end of their activities together in Hong Kong, where they have just held an urgent press conference. Dressed all in black the five members appeared and announced their world tour!
Starting on November 27th in Germany, they will perform in Los Angeles, Hong Kong and Taipei - an overall of four shows. When asked by the moderator, if there were any more performances, RYUICHI silently stood up and the board behind him showed "12/23,24 TOKYO DOME", announcing the additional concerts. And then, SUGIZO added "and more!"
"There is little time right now, but I think we can do a number of things, therefore 'and more'." He explained in a comment surely creating high expectations.
After that, in the Q&A part, while being asked what it felt like to take up activities as a band again, the topic of new songs came up. "We hope to bring you all new songs", the members expressed their burning wish.
"As a band we had closed the curtains, yet, we have never disbanded," RYUICHI said and with these words, expecting new songs can't be wrong.
At last there were messages towards the fans, too.
INORAN [I am really, honestly looking forward to meet everyone at the lives!]
J [Please expect more! We'll take you along to an incredible night, in Hong Kong, in the world and at TOKYO DOME, too.]
SHINYA [Those who make the live, are the fans. Therefore I am looking forward to this from the opposite side.]
SUGIZO [LUNA SEA will revive activities completely. We would like to share new challenges and new emotions.]
RYUICHI [This is about time and music only LUNA SEA can create; a place with the colors of LUNA SEA. We would like to pave this road with everyone.]
