X Japan, the band which hide was in, along with equally talented guitarist Pata, before they split and hide did his solo career, have reformed and are playing I believe in the U.S. , and of course Japan, Asia,

They have hide's guitar on stage during their concerts, and sometimes play Video background of hide playing, synched to the concert.

I just love the dedication which this short clip shows, I hate to think hide is dead, that is why I wanted some footage online.

[Aguacater87]

that's not the best solo Hide has in art of life.

[Bruce097]

@Aguacater87 Of course, are you going to upload the whole thing ? Maybe a 'FanVid' of each hide solo from "Art of Life", lol.

More info Aguacater87, please ... I've the whole concert, and are happy to cut bits that appeal.

[Aguacater87]

@Bruce097 If you have the whole thing I mean the solo he start at about 6:00 - 6:30 is amazing.

[Bruce097]

@Aguacater87 OK, cool man, I'll check it out.

[Bruce097]

Enjoy, thankyou !

♥♥ Arigatou gozaimasu♥♥ We Love Hideto Matsumoto & Taiji Sawada forever as long as we keep them alive in our minds and hearts.

We are X!

[Bruce097]

Performed only once live I believe, because of the complex nature of the piece, and its length. I love the relationship hide, and Pata have when playing together, plus X Japan as a whole are unique.

台湾からです、最初Xのイメージが苦手だったが、一回聞いたが最­後、

完全に引かれ、というきっかけで日本語勉強を始め、xの曲聴かな­い日はなくなった。

ご意見ごもっともだと存じます。

音楽って心で感じるものだと思います。

[MangakaRob]

whahahahaa the goosebumps!

[MyLittleplane]

Damm... I miss Hide so much. I'm dying of seeing him on the stage with my own eyes. Although that can be just a dream but this dream is last long.

[NicotikXX]

because the classic and old is the best >> hide rest in peace

ART OF LIFEのギターメロディーはXの中でも格別だと思う。

Xの容姿（ルックス）が苦手な人は多いと思うけど、このメロディ­ー聴いたら普通のアーティストとは違うと認識するだろうね。
