The Sixth Day Seventh Night Concert Series - Intro
Five years as a solo artist, and Gackt decided to launch a retrospective tour in 2004 and there was plenty of material from the albums Mizerable, MARS, MOON and Crescent, not to mention numerous singles.
You couldn't ask for a better introduction, Gackt pulls out all the stops as he arranges one of his songs to traditional instrumentation, here, Gackt, You and Chacha play shamisen, while Ryu and Ju-Ken play the huge taiko drum behind the center stage, the dance troupe rounds out the sound with bells. The performers are dressed in a version of Heian-era garb, of almost 1,000 years ago, a period in time referred to as a 'golden age' of the arts in Japan.
Watch in awe.
