Is that this guy?

Akira from High Voltage? And...if not.... WTF is this dude....is Akira even a dude, or does it mean something like "I'm gay" in Japanese?

I believe he Akira reference is to the anime movie Akira. Mike's said himself a few times that it's his favorite anime.

Oh...

I'll prolly put a thread in the FMMB anyway, just to make sure.

it sounds like too much of a coincidence to be a coincidence.

Music, Akira, Japan, taquila.... etc. etc. it all fits!

"I'm gay" in Japanese?"

Ahahahahaha...dies..

Yea mike randomly does say akira in high voltage.

It's not randomly, he says it cause I believe that's what he used to call himself, like his first rapper/artist name or something.

And Josh is of course right.

im pretty sure akira is the reference to himself, u see chester during live shows point to shinoda while he ses akira, so i spose u r right about that.
