X JAPAN YOSHIKI's "Crystal Piano" charity auction restarting notice

Influenced by the earthquake disaster in East Japan, YOSHIKI of rock band X JAPAN, announced he will sell his favorite chrystal piano by auction. Saying "I would like to contribute to reconstruction by using music", he is going to spend the whole amount of the auction's return to an organization for reconstruction support of the affected areas.

The "Special-made Chrystal Piano" with YOSHIKI's name logo will be put for auction, on April, 17th. This Piano has been a special order of YOSHIKI, who has been using the piano habitually since X JAPAN's revival concert held in Tokio Dome in March 2008.

The whole amount of the auction's return will be donated to the Japan Red Cross Society via "Yoshikis Foundation America", a non-profit organization. Furthermore, there will be more goods put for auction of artists and celebrity from abroad endorsed by YOSHIKI's thoughts.
