GACKT Official Blog update. Translation below:

Today’s the last day of my hectic stay in Vegas.
In the end,
I’ll be going back to Japan without completely getting over my jet lag.
Even as I think, what the hell…
it’s something that usually happens anyway so it can’t be helped.

After finishing my training, I checked out.
I had around 2 hours before I was going to depart the country.
There were things that I wanted to see in Vegas in matter what.
I decided to go to that 【TOP GOLF】 for a look.

Although the idea of GACKT and GOLF might be put together,
I have plans of
bringing this to Japan and South-east Asia.

I’ve heard about it but
I won’t understand until I actually get to see it so I quickly headed over for a look.

It seems that MGM is managing this TOP GOLF so
it made me wonder “Just how much can I earn from this!”
considering that whatever MGM is in works well.
I can only say that it’s expected.

I can hear you asking, “What’s TOP GOLF?” so…
Simply put,
I think you’ll understand it if I say that it’s an evolutionary version of
a golf driving range where both the club and the driving range are stuck together.

When I went it, I understood the difference just from the reception alone.
Of course, the ambience of its appearance is different,
and the clientele who are gathered here are completely different from the normal driving range customers.

Anyway, the clientele base is wide and even the atmosphere is hyper!
And here,
you can instantly tell who has a daytime personality and who is nocturnal.

There were many kids in the daytime
who visit this place for leisure.
Intuitively, it feels like a bowling alley that a family visits together.

That’s hilarious.
But this is fun.
Everyone is noisily having fun while drinking.

When looking at the golf range, you can only see the driving range but
when it turns to night, I believe the atmosphere changes completely when the LED turns on.

Anyway,
they way they have fun is tremendous.
Even while each person is enjoying golf
all their friends are making a ruckus.
Of course,
if you really wanted to practice you can just go to a normal driving range.
Here,
not only can beginners have fun playing golf,
there’s also a unique atmosphere that makes you want to get excited and raise a ruckus together.
There’s no feeling of any formality or need to behave properly.

And,
there’s even a pool, VIP rooms,
and as we opened up champagne, everyone enjoyed that atmosphere together.
I just can’t hide my surprise at this new concept.
I think Japanese people are definitely a race who enjoys such things.
As I thought that bringing this to Japan will definitely make things exciting,
I finished checking everything and headed to the airport.

After checking in, I arrived at the gate
but there’s still time left.

While I sat at the slot machines with TAKUMI and tried playing it
in an instant, I won a big prize.
Oh well,
things like these are simply luck of timing.

But, I’m still happy regardless…

It was around evening when we arrived in the airport.
The scenery from my window is beautiful.
My time in Vegas for the first time in awhile was hectic but
it’s not too bad to come here occasionally.

Let’s make the next time I come here for the World Series of Poker.

Well then…
I wonder if I will arrive in Japan without incident.
I hope nothing happens〜〜
That was what I ended up thinking, so I guess it seems like I’m still not mature yet after all.

『Make something happen!!!』

is what I should try screaming in my heart.
See you soon, in Japan.
