act vi: METHODS OF INHERITANCE

Versailles' first performance of 2010 was a threeman live event held at Shibuya O-EAST in honour to former bassist Jasmine You on January 4. Other bands artists performing were Matenrou Opera and Kaya. The aim of the event was letting the band and its fans pour out all their feelings for one evening before going on. At this concert the band played a new song titled Serenade, which seems to have been written for Jasmine You.
 
In the meantime, Versailles debuted on radio with a special weekly show aired by 80.4 FM Hokkaido AIR-G' from January 2. The show was hosted by KAMIJO, and one of the other three members appeared every week as a guest.
 
On January 20 the major debut album JUBILEE was released. It was promoted by a long series of instore events, interviews, TV appearances and even the release of an official iPhone application.
Warner Music also organized the run a promotional Versailles truck through Shibuya, Harajuku and Omotesando during the album release week. On top of that, Versailles even managed to play their major debut single Ascendead Master live at the popular NHK music show MUSIC JAPAN on January 24.
 
On February 28 Versailles kicked off the Japanese  leg of their first world tour ever "Methods of Intheritance" with a sold out performance in Yokohama. This was the first  performance with support bassist Masashi (former member of several bands including CODE).
 
The beginning of the tour was celebrated with the opening of the official fanclub "Descendant of Rose" to Japanese fans on March 1.
