Since 1926, There has been a festival in Joetsu, Niigata prefecture, honoring feudal Japan warlord Uesugi Kenshin.
Since his appearance as Uesugi Kenshin in the drama "fuurin Kazan", Gackt has been a regular at the festival, portraying Kenshin riding on a white horse in triumphant return.
This year was no different. On August 22nd, 2010... Gackt once again portrayed a triumphantly returning Uesugi Kenshin.
coming up next on August 29th, he will be performing a live show at Zepp Tokyo.
For those that area also interested... J-Rock Us! Radio is finally back on the air... featuring many Gackt songs throughout the day. There is also a special on Saturday's called "GACKT-tastic Saturdays". I play all Gackt, all day long.
Jesus, Ever, Orenji no Taiyou, Ghost, Lust for Blood, all the best of Gackt all Saturday, EVERY saturday. Also, for Gamers and anime lovers... there's a special All Wednesday devoted to video games, manga and anime.
