Jiro's message from Happy Swing Space Site
It's really cold in NY! It's only -13C in yesterday night. This is not because I come from Hokkaido! Yet the recording is going very smoothly It feels good even with John - whom I co-operated with in recording for the first time. I really want to let all of you to hear the new Glay sound! Because we want you to listen it as soon as possible, we try our very best in production.

I hope all of you will wait it patiently!

And there is one thing which I have to report...(I want to say it here, but the weekly magazine got faster...)

I got married

In this "Heavy Gauge Tour", I tried to release myself with my all best for numerous time, sometimes I even don't know why I am trying so hard. I can't understand this completely. It's her - who support the weak me from the deepest of her heart. If I lose the deep love given by her, family and members, I think I can't go on stage anymore - this is what I am always afraid of...

Kurt from Nirvana - this is a band which I like very much - he committed suicide because he could no longer go on stage excitedly (um, of course this is not the only reason.)

Although it's quite shameful to compare myself with Kurt, I don't want to be like him.

I like Glay very much, maybe this is because I can always stay with my fans. I want to work hard for Glay, and be blessed with Glay. Therefore I think my marriage will enable me to love who want to be loved even deeper.

And I want to discover dreams with all of you!

Merry X'mas

That's all. I am Jiro. Peace!

The following is the news that I have collected (Japanese to English)
1. From excite Japan
The bassist of Glay - the popular rock band - Jiro (28) have married a former music magazine reporter (29) on the 3rd of this month. This was announced on the 19th.
From the magazine "Flash" which was published on the 19th, when the bride was still as a reporter, she was responsible to report Glay. And she has a cute look like. They started to date 3 years ago. Last year, She lived with Jiro in a mansion in Tokyo. In this autumn, they moved to a high-class mansion in Tokyo. It seems it's near to the merriage
The guitarist of Glay - Hisashi had merried last December. On the otherhand, Teru the vocal had disvorced with his bride (28) in this spring

2. From Nikkansport.com
The bassist of the popular group Glay - Jiro (28) has secretly married the former music magazine reporter R-san on the 3rd of this month, and this was announced on the 18th. "Flash" which was published on the 19th reported this. Jiro knew R-san 3 years ago when he was interviewed by her. Their love relationship deloveped rapidly this year. They have started to live in a high-class mansion for the honeymoon. It's unclear that R-san is pregnant or not. About the marriage of Glay member - since Hisashi (28) married with the former OL last December, Jiro is the second one. Member of Glay was in New York fro recording on the 19th December. The "middle man" said "the stuff had headed for New York, therefore they haven't commented on this"
(Grace added: this news is not that accurate - Jiro is the 3rd person to get married amount Glay member!!)

3. From Yomiuru.co.jp
Jiro(28) from the popular rock band Glay married Reiko san - maganzine reporter secretly on 3rd this month, and this was announced on the 18th. It's reported by "Flash" (Jan2.9) published on the 19th.
They met each other 3 years ago when they are working. Now they lived in a high-class mansion in the centre of Tokyo from this autumn. Jiro is now in New York with other members for recording. He still haven't made any comment on this matter

This one is told by my friend Minami *arigadou!! and she got this from HSMS
Jiro has confirmed his marriage. Jiro said how much he needed a marriage. It's seems that Reiko has given him a lot of support and Jiro has a sweet time. He really did made a sweet love announcement in it

I can't remember the source....
Why Reiko gave up her job?! She retired after she had lived with Jiro.... so u know ...Jiro has taken up the job as a "husbad" and Reiko is the housewife!!!

Old newspaper cutting: Jiro lived with Reiko
http://www.geocities.com/Tokyo/Field/8601/gl-news22.jpg
Quite interesting - about they use the same bicycle -from Oriental Daily and it gets its info from Friday

I have found some useless information: there're totally 4 interviews made by What's in with Glay in 1997:
May 1997 (Jiro spoke twice)
August 1997 (Jiro spoke once)
September 1997 (Jiro said twice)
December 1997 (Jiro said 3 times)
So which one of them is interviewed by Reiko?!!

These are all the things I could report! As a conclution... I can only tell Jiro has a very very sweet time. I just pray here that no one will come to disturb him! *You know the disgusting researcher of magazines~ And as us fans~ I know there must be a time that we will sad... but we should not be like this anymore becoz Jiro won't be happy if he know this!! Becoz of Jiro, we should live a better life! We should not make GHlay lose face!!!!! (oh I went nut again~ gomen ne~ Firstly I live for God, and the second I live for Jiro....)
