Hi! It's TAKURO

How are you guys these days???
I hope you're having a good time wherever you are!

First of all,
Let me say thank you to everybody who showed up for our tour in the U.S, and for the people who made "THE GREAT VACATION IN THE U.S." possible. We promise you that we'll be back here again!


I want to share a few thoughts with you.
I'm so proud of myself after the great success of the shows in U.S. We had such a wonderful time at "the Fillmore" and "the HOUSE OF BLUES"! I just appreciate all the kindness we were shown by everyone here!


I like to think that I'm good at expressing myself inwords,
but this time... I'm really at a loss. It was THATamazing!  I felt the explosion of "ROCK" and "LOVE" at the places we played,not only from the stage but from the audience as well. And I can stillfeel it! 
I wish I knew the way to express how happy you made me feel!
And I'm so glad to say it loudly. I have no doubt in my mind; rock music is so real! All the guys and girls we saw there were like our MATES! and I thank you again for lifting up our souls!  We're really confident that our tours of the US will keep getting better and better!

Now I'm here in my hotel room in Cincinnati, Ohio.
I'm still suffering from jet lag, and I've been here in U.S. for over 10 days!!
The day before yesterday I was in Miami to see The BOSS's concert. It was so great! I felt such a warm feeling and a strong energy from that stage.
It turned me back into a kid who believes in the power of music.
After the show, I had a chance to say hello to him.
I told him "I'd like to see your concert in JAPAN again" "OK!" he said with a big smile.
 
I want more "BRUCE"!!!

Thank you all for being there and reading this!
It's time to go out for dinner!
I should find a good restaurant around here in Cincinnati, right?

Any suggestions?
Chiruru♪

 
thank you for your all of love!!!

TAKUROsan~ Thanks for writing this blog. It really means a lot to us. I can honestly say that Friday and Saturday were two of the best days of my life, not only because I got to spend it with GLAY, but I had a chance to meet other amazing people from all over the world and all sorts of walks of life. It shows me just how much GLAY's music can bring even the most opposite people together. Thank you for that. Thank you for coming back to the US. I can't wait to see you again!

When I came back to the US after living in Japan, I was jetlagged for about 2 weeks too, so don't worry! And don't over-do it! We need you in top shape!

Wish I could help with restaurant recommendations, but I don't know Cincinatti very well. But if you were in Chicago I could help! XD

NO GLAY=NO LIFE
Peace.

We all felt the love from GLAY as well and we were overwhelmed by it as well. My friends were crying their eyes out after the show ended. They were mixed tears of joy and sadness.

Jet lag is a pain. I think I still have a small amount of it since flying back from L.A. to NY xAx. But like all things, it will come to pass. I hope you're having fun in the U.S. seeing "The Boss"! As for restaurant suggestions, I don't have any, unfortunately. I have not been to Cincinnati yet, but when you're traveling, it's always good to visit to restaurants that the locals go to. You get to taste the essence of the city ^_^.

I wish I could give you a good restaurant reccomendation, Takuro, but I cannot. Never been there. I'm glad you enjoyed the Bruce Springsteen concert, it sounds amazing! I, too, would love to get some more Bruce in my life!

Thank you for coming to San Francisco! I loved you at The Fillmore! I love GLAY, the music, and the way you stage your shows. Thank you.

I travelled from Switzerland to San Francisco to see you guys holding a small concert:) i visited the countdown concert from the one love tour a few years back but that was different to be quite far away from the stage compared to this time.
the concert at the Fillmore was just amazing. i could have listened to you guys all night long:D and i will for sure fly over there again if possible if you hold another small concert sometimes again:)

i just arrived home a few hours ago from the US and suffering some from the jet lag as well...
maybe i have a chance to say hello to glay sometimes after a concert too;p

thanks for the amazing concert =)

Hi Takuro! No, thank you for writing this blog! A lot of us appreciate it. I can't put into words how awesome/special Friday and Saturday were to me. I've been to many a concerts and seriously, a GLAY concert has such a connection with the crowd... the LOVE permeates everywhere. ^^ I had a great view from the side of the HOB, and I could see how happy you guys were and how that happiness gets passed from us to you guys and back. lol. I love you guys! I'll definitely come to your next show in the US!

I had major jet-lag, too, coming from a vacation in the Japan. A week in Japan gave me a week of jet- let =/ I don't really get it, but going to Japan you get no jet-lag. So you should be fine once you get back. XD

See you later!!!

Hi Leader! Do you feel a bit lonely without the other guys with you?

I can honestly say the last show was the best rock concert I've ever been to in my life... of course all three shows you guys were awesome, but that last one in particular, you guys just exploded with energy. It was sooo amazing!!!

It makes me really happy to see you guys having such fond memories of the US Tour knowing that the ones who attended the shows get to share part of that special connection with you all.

Oh, it's so cute too, that you totally act like a fanboy with Bruce so you know exactly how we feel about you and can relate to fans feelings!

We'll all be waiting for you to come back again next year! In the meantime, take care and have fun at the recording! Can't wait for the new songs in TGV2!!!

Thank you so much TAKURO-san for always writing to us. I am glad you had a great time watching THE BOSS and had a chance to meet him. GLAY magic was greatly felt by all of us who saw you at HOB, where I went for both nights. I felt that this time GLAY was more relaxed and was able to even give us more than last year. Would you agree? See you again soon. Love, Wynne (Los Angeles)

It makes me so happy to know that we made you happy >w<
waiting in line for more than 12 hours was all worth it to be able to hear Takuro's music so close.
the concert was amazing, and your music is amazing.
It can bring so many people together and fill them with love, thank you for such amazing lyrics that I never knew could exist or be so beautiful!

Ohio is like the land of Potatoes and Chicken, I'm from California, can't help you there Sir D:

Takuro-san!!
Come back to the US again and again! I'm glad you enjoyed performing at Fillmore and HOB again. (^-^) And you had a good time at the concert in Florida.

Thank you so much for coming again. I already miss seeing you guys.... I wish it never ended!
I had such a good weekend.... getting to see everyone again (other fans) and GLAY... It's a dream really!

Thank you for everything, personally. I just keep thinking about the time in California and I'm so happy. I'm really glad that I was able to come in the end.

Take care!
Love!! xxHitomi

Hello dear Takuro san !

You really can be proud of you : all I get to read about your US Tour was great ! It seemed the show was awesome, and the fans really appreciated it ! I hope it is the same for you ! ^_^
You know, I think that even if you're not able to find the words to express what you felt, the fans could understand your feelings tough, because of your music. Music is a language even more huge than any other languages that uses words. So I wish you all the best for the future : keep on expressing yourself and sharing your power and love with your fans through music, all around the world !

With love from France
Rena

Hi, Takuro-san!

I'm the Brazilian girl who managed to attend both LA concerts... And I'm still having trouble believing that those two concerts actually happened and that I was actually -there- and seeing everyone so close and so full of energy! After almost 8 years waiting for this to happen, it's hard not to think that it was just an illusion... But it was real!

I cannot thank you and Teru, Hisashi and Jiro for having made my greatest dream real. Although you say you're at a loss with words, I can perfectly understand what you feel and I'm happy to know that I was part of this whole experience! And a life-changing one, at least for me!

I hope this second tour in the US encourages you to go abroad more and visit all the fans you certainly have in other countries and places, like Brazil, Bolivia, Taiwan, France and even Alaska! GLAY's "global communication" is just that powerful!

I'm really glad you're also enjoying yourself in the US! Hope you've found a good restaurant, too.

Best regards from Brazil,
Mariana.

Takuro, why do you have to be in Cincinnati? :( You should come to Cleveland, Ohio so we can have dinner together at the Hard Rock Cafe!! :]

Thank you for coming back to the US, and thank you for keeping in touch with your English-speaking fans! I hope that GLAY will tour on the east coast of the US someday so I can see you guys live. I look forward to that day! 

With lots of love,
Caroline <3 <3 <3 xoxo

Hi~ TAKUROさん(^^)/,

Thanks for your Message!!

Congradulations!! The whole U.S. TOUR was ended safely & successfully.

Althought I can not be there, I can feel how the Live was like by reading the the post from GLAY and Fans here in myspace.

TAKURO, it's good to hear that you enjoyed the U.S. TOUR so much.
I think the Power of the "ROCK & LOVE Explosion" in U.S. was similar to the Power of "ROCK & LOVE VACATION" in the NISSAN Stadium in Japan.  (^ ^)

GLAY is 最高!!

TAKURO, Please enjoy your GREAT VACATION in U.S.!!
