When you’re Yoshiki, anything’s possible. After all, he’s dominated Japan since 1989 with his legendary band, X Japan, and produced great tracks for other bands like Luna Sea, Glay, and The TRAX.

So what do you get someone that could have anything he wanted for his birthday? Why, throw him a surprise birthday party with as many of his friends that you can cram into one room, of course. Not only his friends and colleagues, but the American ambassador John Roos was there to greet the rock star with a ‘Happy Birthday’.

Yesterday, the producer/pianist/entrepreneur was in Tokyo going to what he thought was another business meeting after a long day of other meetings. Instead of a room full of suits and reports, he was met with smiling faces, a cake, and as much alcohol as he could chug before he had to fly out to L.A. today.

But the impending flight did not stop him from enjoying the party, and eventually passing out from too many drinks.

Before ending his night, Yoshiki tweeted to all his fans that bombarded his Twitter with messages of love, “To friends, band members and YOUUUU! Thank you so much, I had the best birthday!”

In a series of tweets, Yoshiki shared the fun with all his fans, and for those of you who missed it, check out the photos below.

Happy birthday, Yoshiki!
