A shame we miss this in America.
Really, thank you for the exposure.

Bucktick singer Atsu Sakarai about life on the road and other rock bands. He thought when Hyde first started out in L'arc en Ciel that he had the talent to be around.. Hyde looks up to Atsu as a mentor. Atsu and Bucktick are still around 20 years later and are one of Japan's top bands.

You've definitely thrown me down the rabbit hole...perhaps the rabbit will help me find my queen or at least my way home.
