Art of Life 1993.12.31 Tokyo Dome is a live VHS/DVD released by X Japan on September 24, 2003. It contains the band's Art of Life performance on December 30, 1993 as part of the two-day concert series X Japan Returns. The name of the DVD is misleading as it really is a heavily edited mix of both nights they performed at the Tokyo Dome. It is the same version which appeared on Art of Life Live EP five years earlier. Only the video is filmed on December 31 except the piano solo part, which is filmed on December 30. A large part of Toshi's vocals were also replaced by studio re-recordings to make up for the apparent faults at both live concerts. A limited edition containing a photobook and a CD containing an Endless Rain rehearsal at the studio in Los Angeles was also released the same day. |
