I read on some web site that hide's death was a accident. I should have saved the link damn it! I still have the article. the sad thing is I have no clue where it came from and who wrote it. So I don't know if it was a crazzed fan or actuall press released. Well, here it is.
This was officially announced that hide didn't commited suicide, but it was a really sad and dreadful incident. Let's explain it: because guitar players have to hang their guitars down for a long periods of time and also have to arch their necks while playing, they tend to have bad stiff shoulders. A "popular" way of treating these stiff shoulders is to pull back the head, which is doing like a massage. Most of hide's friends confessed that he often did that kind of treatment at home, by hooking a towel at the door knob, to his neck. That morning, he came back drunk, and did this massade. Unfortunatly, he fell asleep during the "treatment", smashed by alcohol.....and never wakes up. He involontary strangled himself.
That was all there was. Does any one know anything about this? Please tell me that this article is true!
Has anyone ever seen ALIVEST Perfect Stage? its a DVD, I got it online. I was wondering if its any good. it's the first hide DVD I have purchased.
