You know, you guys shouldn't make these so obvious. I'm Otakon staff. Luckily this bit isn't exactly copyright doom, but my superiors can't really tear down all 10,000 videos anyways.

@Cirrusstrafe what I dont get is if people are allowed to tape them at their concerts why arent we allowed to tape it.

And good work if you were staff during the great otakon fire you guys what sucks is you didnt get paid for your work

T^T I was crying when i heard this....I never had so much at a con before seing them made my day

I held my friend's arm and i began to cry from the sound of the violin

[damm416]

@ourangirl1992 I know what you mean. They were so great

[Aizen9]

Not X Japan, its Yoshiki & Sugizo performing X Japan songs, but its not X Japan, X Japan is all the members together performing.

[damm416]

@Aizen9 They are memebers of the group right? so close enough lol

[captinmunchie]

@pweesa Forever Love was the first song

[LilSpirit003]

Their performance gave me goosebumps instantly! Especially when I heard the violin. When you get goosebumps once you hear a song, you know it's fantastic! <3

It's okay if your video was a little shaky. The sound was really good. I know we shouldn't have recorded and all, but hey, it's a good moment to remember :]

[pweesa]

does anyone know what two songs they played were? I know one was Endless Rain but.....I'm not sure about the other ; ___ ;

[wakawaka60]

Yeah I actually wanted to know what happened with the fire alarm, some people said  somebody pulled it.

Another staffer here: this specific performance is a bit of grey area: for most concerts there's a no video policy; it's very strict because our corporate lawyer ends up having to cut checks to the people involved in the performance if video gets out (the arena, the union show workers, etc. etc., all get a cut of a profit that wasn't made). I don't remember a no video policy (but I'll check my literature in a bit) at this performance, but it's probably not the best idea to be so blatant.

@damm416 We weren't supposed to tape anything. we were actually told if they caught us taping we could get thrown out. So there are few HQ versions of the performance that were taped. People had to be sneaky about it. I wasn't staff, but I agree they did a great job evacuating the building. 28,000+ people in less than 15 min. That's pretty good. I don't think it was X Japan saying no taping, it was the con people. Who knows why they made it a rule. It was that way for every concert this year.

I was there it was really good!!

this was very awesome indeed i cried during both songs especially forever love though cause everytime i hear it i think of hide and i remember his funeral viewing and all. i was right up in the front row this made my day got to show off my X tat as well.
