Then maybe he shouldn't have done it then, it's not an excuse for a shitty show.
That's a little harsh don't you think?
Basically you're saying he should not have made some spare time for his fans in Europe who so much longed for him to finally show him self, and should have kept his Okinawan ass in Japan JUST because he was not 'magically flying' trough the air while feathers falling from the ceiling?
A big ass themed show costs months of months and months of planning and preparations, a shitload of money on stage- and image design, a shitload of money on transporting everything to another part of the world by airplane (and no artist do not have discount on that) such as the stage decoration, costumes, instruments, tons of merchandise, etc...
Then there is the careful planning of the songs, choreograph that go with the songs, studying of the audience it self, the arrangement of all the staff,dancers, stylists, etc... tagging allong, and so on.
There is so much that comes with touring as an artist and if you already are doing a big tour and you need to have a certain budget.
That's kinda like going to a restaurant on budget and order a bottle of house champagne but expect to get a bottle of Dom Perignon White Gold Jeroboam.
Hell if I had to say "Közi, you don't give a shit about your audiance because most of the time you're being too much turned inwards towards your self while performing instead of towards the audience, your gig sucked ass so piss off I wish you never came" what kind of fan would I be??
So, even though I am not really a Gackt fan my opinion is be glad he made time for his fans during his busy schedule, he could have ignored his European fans even longer.
Who knows, he might come back soon and give out the kind of concert that is 'to be expected' of a man like Gackt.
