Mega Super J-Rock Band to Hold Music Video Recording Event the Evening of

July 1, 2010 at Club Nokia Immediately Following the Yoshiki Foundation

Launch Party

Los Angeles, CA and Tokyo, Japan (June 24, 2010) ‹ Fans of X JAPAN, are in

for a once in a lifetime treat, will have the opportunity to ³X-perience²

the power and magic of the legendary J-Rock super-band in the filming of the

epic band¹s upcoming music video at Club Nokia in Downtown Los Angeles at

L.A. Live on the evening of July 1, 2010 immediately following the Yoshiki

Foundation launch party.

Fans are encouraged to ³dress to impress² as the entire band will take over

the famous Club Nokia venue and ³rock the house²!

Calling X Japan the most successful rock band in Japan is not a statement

made lightly. X Japan has sold more than 30-million albums, singles and

videos, headlined and sold out Japan's 55,000-seat Tokyo Dome 18 times - so

far - and has started playing to tens of thousands of fans outside of Japan.

The band's look and sound sparked a global interest in Japanese

entertainment, especially with the Japanese cultural rock phenomenon,

"Visual-Kei," a movement X Japan pioneered that went on to become a catalyst

for today's worldwide Anime craze.

Yoshiki, the band's leader/songwriter/drummer and classically-trained

pianist, has been referred to by his first name only throughout his

professional career, and is arguably Asia's most influential musical artist

and biggest rock icon. According to one industry insider, "Yoshiki is to

Japan what Bono is to the UK." The members of X Japan include Yoshiki, Toshi

(vocals), Pata (guitarist), Heath (bass), and Sugizo (guitar).
