What’s with vocalists of great bands passing away lately in such a young age? :frowning: Aki’s beautiful and characteristc voice fit so well with the atmosphere Laputa provided. He will always be remembered.

Oh no… not another death. Horrible news :frowning:

happy to see laputa revive but not under these circumstances. I think the lineup of guest vocalists will be amazing though, I hope his contemporaries and singers influenced by him (ryo, nigu, etc) will perform in his place </3

Hmm, that Laputa date lines up with when I’m hoping to be in Tokyo. I suppose an excursion to Nagoya would be in order. Now to find out where tickets are sold.

Edit: Messaged the venue directly to see if they know. Best case scenario, they sell me one directly so I don’t have to go through a proxy.

2nd Edit: The live house said that details re:ticket sales haven’t been finalized, and gave me the info for the organizer/promoter, http://www.jailhouse.jp/
