X Japan’s milestone performance in 2017 at The SSE Arena, London took the SSE Live Awards for “Best Event”. The performance showcased a Wembley exclusive cut of We Are X documentary, as well as covers of David Bowie songs in tribute to the late British singer, songwriter, and actor who passed away in 2016.
“We’re so grateful for the support of our fans, and it’s an honor to receive this award. X Japan will try to return after our Coachella performance this year to come back and rock the UK again. Looking forward to seeing you all”, Yoshiki said.
