This is a message taken from Violet UK's MySpace page and was brought to my attention by yet another contact only THIS time, this contact is working to promote Yoshiki. I sear to God, hide's ghost is following me around making this shit happen. Anyway, pay particular attention to the bold part.
"I can't believe how many letters I have been getting from so many different countries! As I said on my own Myspace page, I wish I could respond to all of your messages. I am working day and night to finish this album. Maybe after a few shows in the US, I may want to do a world tour.
Thank you so much for supporting me and being who you are!!!
LOVE,
YOSHIKI"
Violet UK doing shows in the US, fantastic!

 ZOMG. But I fear the tickets will all be sold out before the show even opens! Man, I'm so poor. And slow. But that's great! HOLY CRAP. And since when did Yoshiki have a myspace account? Linky please? |

Yeah! *wants Myspace linky*
I have only heard one Violet UK thing, and to be honest, I hated it.
But I still love Yoshiki. *hugs* And I'm not going to judge Violet UK based on that one thing.
By the way . . .
What exactly IS Violet UK? Like, I know it's Yoshiki's new thing (well I think he's been doing it for a while . . . OK his current thing) . . . but what exactly IS it? *confused*

Violet UK is supposed to span the artistic world such as music and fashion. Yoshiki did mention in an interview that it did spawn fashion ideas. But the musical style is sort of experimental as of now....some elements of techno and piano classical music....some rock-ish but from what I've listen to in the samples I've liked so far~  |

W00t!! I will put my Taiji loyalty aside for this haahaa (I'm a cheese head, I know xD). And as for hide's ghost, he appeared to me in kitty form several times it was creepy xD. The last few times I visited my boyfriend's apartment this little Orange cat, that I named hide-chan, has popped out of no where and started snuggling me...I hope it doesn't have any radioactive fleas >_0

Awww.... but radioactive fleas are cute  Speaking of which, I ended up joining the Yoshiki official mailing list/something I can't really describe for you (of which is temporary free access as of now, but hopefully the Yoshiki.net service will be extended to the overseas community. Hell, I'd pay good money for it XD). Visit Yoshiki.net to check it out I just figured out that his Myspace plays Violet UK musics XD and that it's available for purchase on iTunes apparently. |

Well Yoshiki friended me and so did Violet UK. Mellie, can you confirm that its the real Yoshiki and not some 13 year old fan girl in Florida pretending to be Yoshiki xD (I know, I know, but for anyone who's ever met "hideko" you'd understand my sceptisism...)

This came from Violet UKs myspace blog and from a reliable source. not a 13 year old kid. C'mon now, you should know better than that, I've been around the block a few times. www.myspace.com/violetukRead the blog that says TOUR. By the way, there are a couple of Yoshiki myspace pages out there. I never got a response from the one I believe is really his but in all fairness, it was long time ago that I requested to add him. Maybe I should try again. By the way, Na Na, I sent you an add request. SMOOCHIES! |

uh huh. I have not heard about that one. Mmmm, interesting. I think she must be crazy. Anyway, everyone knows that hide follows me around during the day and comes to my midnite, dead rockstar seances. He's usually the guest of honor all though John Lennon and Jim Morrison have been known to make an appearance from time to time as well.

Holy fxxk. I remember the "hideko" thing. XDDD It's hilarious that I know who that was XD. But yeah I was pretty skeptical when I first saw that Yoshiki had a myspace (me not trusting myspace and all....). I agree with Mellie, it looks pretty legit to me unless someone managed to secure Violet UK samples somehow >.>

ZOMG.
I friended Violet UK and he friended me back . . .
I wrote a message to him about how he was my hero and HE WROTE ME BACK!!!
Well all it said was "THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! YOSHIKI" but still! *heart pounds*
*feels loved*
I told him the story about how before I heard X Japan, somebody randomly yelled "YOSHIKI IS JESUS!" And after I heard X Japan, I totally believed it. Hehehe.
Dude, I'm ashamed of myself. I totally just reverted back into my Yoshiki-fangirl mode.
Somebody shoot me!
EDIT: And I'm totally not one of those "Yoshiki-is-hot" type of fangirls, because since he cut his hair, he just looks like a man-whore. I'm a "Yoshiki-is-a-fxxing-genius" fangirl.
Somebody should post some good Violet UK stuff on the Music Request Forum. *nudge nudge nudge*

Cool Ceshy! I never tried to add VioletUK to my friends list, maybe I'll do that. I wonder if you don't need to send him a message in order to get added. Did you do that Na Na or did you just send an add friend request?

Somebody should post some good Violet UK stuff on the Music Request Forum. *nudge nudge nudge* I actually had some Violet UK songs posted up at one point....but I'll have to deep dive the hard drive for them...I think the ones I had up until now was White Poem II with interview, Blind Dance, Blue and Blind (Studio test version), Without You (Piano version). Yup. And I think I'll Be Your Love is a completely different thingy entirely but I'll be happy to post that up if you wish. |
