He was readmitted to Maison Mere after being humiliated.We saw him on Maison Mere's show Zamba Zamba and at concerts changing roles with Arc En Ciel on lead guitar and mi-solo then later we heard that he was on suspension along with others like keyboard/synth player Thierry Synthe, this was sometime last year, haven't the suspensions been lifted, where are all the musicians who were suspended?

Do you think Werrason has much confidence in Japonais on lead,why did he put him mainly on mi-solo instead of letting take over as lead soloist,do you think Werrason would treat Flamme Kapaya the same way if Flamme returned to Wenge Maison Mere or it's just that I have always said,Japonais' old skool style just doesn't click with Werrason............what's your take fellas.

...My take, and this is why many regard Igwe as the grand formatuer; Any old school or even young guitarist/soloist coming to Zamba be it Japonais,Daddy, Mongaratana or even Kapaya will becoming in to push the young Phenom Arc lest he becomes content and slack off. Arc has proven that not only can he play anybody's style but better and he probably has the fastest hands in the game;his pick hand is just sick.  In Ingeta he will show why Werra has him on the helm...

Kaisari, this Arc en Ciel chap has not gotten to Kapaya's level yet and he knows that very well.
Yes, he can beat Mogratana big time but Flamme and Dady Bola no!! Japonais is an excellent soloist but the style he plays is not the style Werra likes and it's all to do with age, the same may be the same for Dady Bola who has spent most his career playing mature music at Viva otherwise he's an excellent soloist who plays Flamme's style without errors. There's nothing like formateur, Werra simply has his preference and that's what he's identified for, he wants things done differently so any musician who does things to Werra's taste will certainly take the number one spot, up to now we've not seen Dady Bola's audition but we have seen that he's now the main mi-soloist, am failing to understand what Werra's plan is but hopefully soon we 'll get to listen to Dady on lead, maybe that's when we'll argue well, let's wait for that moment.

...If Arc wasn't up to par you would have seen and heard senior and respected guitarist say something; it takes one to know one and in Ingeta history will be made 8)

We cannot talk of something that has not happened, why talk of his work in Ingeta which we haven't heard.
The other soloist made their names a long time ago and have nothing else to prove and it's the reason why they are probably not bothered when Werra makes them number 2 to Arc en Ciel who they found in the band already.

...lol nope, Werra had Arc on rythm when Luxemborg was on lead and if you understand body language you can feel/see the tension between the two...

You've been answered right, Arc en Ciel was stuck on rhythm all that time that Kimbangu and Bob Solo were shining, he didn't even make It to Zenith, he was lucky he was the only one available when Kimbangu and Bob Solo decided to stay in Europe after Zenith so he has them to thank you.

Kaisari, you got wishful thinking, what tension was there if Kimbangu was the lead guitarist and was never on mi-solo like others, the only time he rested was for Bob Solo to also play one or two songs. That Arc en Ciel was always standing backstage, I only have one show on which he was shown playing lead and it was before Werra came on stage infact the reserve band was the one playing.

Rythm was dominant during Bob,airbag and Luxemborg era hence the best guitarist were playing rythm, Arc who is a complete guitarist has brought back the solo dominance which we will cherish in Ingeta 8) ;)
