waw.... it has been SO long since i've been on here.... it feels like another life time :relief:

anyway, ther point:
a little bit of shameless promoting here.

i was at the Pura gig in paris this weejkend (it was so ******* good *dead*)
anyways, while i was there i met some really nice people who are organising something in London on the 29th of Jully. unfortunatly i can't make it, but the thing is, it's a Jrock event at Cafe Manga (near the millenium eye) and it's sponcered buy the...um... ack, i've forgotten their name >.< the Jrpck thing that bands like Diru, MUCC and such are on for their Europe tours and stuff...
andyway.... we really want it to be a big success because then it'll make Japan go OH! England's part of Europe too... AND WE SPRECKN SIE ENGLISH HERE!!!! and most bands know that if they know another language at all...
anyways, one of the girls i ment is DJing the event... and i'm really sorry i can't make it... but i'm now going arround telling everyone about it becasue i cant' go XD
so yes... PLEASE try and get down to London for that event, and then maybe your favorite band will come here some time!!!!

to get more info contact takuropop on lj... i do have her email, but... um... it's upstairs... and i'm down stairs... and still in emence pain ^^;
anyways... it's currently for 18's and over, but they're trying to get that lowered, because they know a considerable amount of people are good fans, but a lot younger than that >.<

yup, please do! :)

i didn't mention, but it's £4 to enter >.<
still... that's nohing if it ends up being a success and Jbands and singers and such end up coming here!

so far only BLOOD have come, and that was for a con, and they had to cancel their tour because ticket sales were so low... but that's possibly because people weren't awear of it much... i don't know...
still... it would be nice to... you know, be able to go to a gig and not have t for out at least £100 every time >.<

Furan! Welcome back! :-)

That's sounds interesting. I wish i could go, but it's so far away from my place. I wish someone in our country would organize an event like that. But that is like never going to happen :okashii:

I don't even know any people from Slovenia who like Jrock :shock: I was thinking about that before... but i must find someone who loves Jrock. For the begining we could make a party at home :p

Oh maaan, I so want to go to this! :silly: Thanks for the promotion, Furan! :-) I dunno if I can go... I want someone to go with... I don't wanna go on my own. :( (Yeah I'm pathetic... -_-) I dunno of anyone who - oh wait! There's a UK jrock fan on LJ... Evespikey... *runs off to find her* XD I was going to say I don't know anyone in the UK except Furan who likes jrock. :( (And Y0kan but he's in Northern Ireland :kanashii: )
