Japanese superstars MAN WITH A MISSION will make their first appearance at X Games, the world's largest international competition for action sports. 'Tonight, Tonight', taken from upcoming album Break and Cross the Walls II, will also be the official theme song for the event.

Tokyo Tanaka, MAN WITH A MISSION vocalist and leader who also loves to skateboard and snowboard, says, "X Games is being held in Japan - I'm so excited! It's an event I've been longing to come here, and to be able to perform live there, I can't help but get excited! See you all at the world's top action sports festival, moriagarimasho!! Let's go!!!"
