Draw board updated
Hi all,
Added a "Artists Board" so artists can work in peace knowing their art is safe. The way it works is:
- Random people have only view access
- Need to be checked into draw.
Currently only a few people know the password to be checked in. Please contact me at pockyrevolution [at] yahoo.com if you would like it. I'm still figuring out a limit to the number of artists sharing one board... I may be creating boards for indivuduals or pairs.
**Also, if you missed last times update, live streaming JPOP via Kawaii-Radio was added!
Try it now! To the drawing board >>

May 2nd...
Always such a sad day...
Anniversery of Hideto Matsumoto's (hide) death :(
hide led the indie band Saver Tiger... But with little success he thought he wouldn't be able to make it in the music world and turned towards hair styling...
Thankfull he got a call from Yoshiki, asking to join X.
After X-Japan's falling out he went solo with an album "Hide your Face" and with his popularity he recorded his second album "Psyence".
He even went as far as working with Zilch (and American band).
After his time there he went back to the back up band that helped him with his first solo album and thus "hide with Spread Beaver" was born.
Unfortunately during the making of Ja, Zoo their first album and talking with Yoshiki on reuniting X-Japan... hide was found dead hung to a doorknob on May 2nd 1998.
50,000 people came to hide's funeral where the members of X-Japan tributed him by singing "Forever Love".
The hide museum in Yokosuka was made in his honour but went down in Sept25th, 2005 due to the lack of funds...
I wanted to go see it... doh! a year too late :(
Rest in Peace hide... Your music meant a lot and touch many people... including myself.
