Since first listening to Luna Sea's music it has always been a band I knew instantly from first glance, I would love. They just have that kind of charm to their music and sound that is instantly recognizable and lovable.
When I heard that SUGIZO was touring with Juno Reactor this September, I was excited! The only show near me in San Fransisco was at a 21 and over venue,
it was disappointing at first but I had seen him at JRockRevolution so the disappointment didn't last long
There was also a meet and greet session at the Kinokuniya Bookstore in Japan Town. SUGIZO took some time at the beginning to answered questions from the crowd, which was smaller then I expected. He answered in English, he expressed his concerns about the session being about Juno Reactor as a whole, and not solely him. It was obvious for the crowd the real reason they were there was to see their guitar idol.
When the time came to get our posters signed it was nerve-racking for me. The woman ahead of me in line had SUGIZO sign her booklet from LUNA SEA's Mother album. He turned to his Juno Reactor band-mate, showing him the booklet and explaining that it was from his band in Japan, he seemed really surprised to see it mentioning how old it was

SUGIZO asked me my name and how to spell it, not really thinking I kept spelling it too fast. He asked if I was going to the show that night. I felt bad that I had to say I wasn't able to go because I was too young
It was such an exciting day, and to meet one of my idols in such a small intimate setting was really wonderful!
