They’re all on B7’s twitter for those interested
Will no one just put a video on YouTube anymore? No Twitter or Instagram for me 
You can see Twitter links by replacing the x with xcancel. I do agree with the sentiment though, despite using instagram, I strongly dislike any non-conversation-focussed(*) platforms that require an account just to view content.
(*) By this I mean platforms where people or groups will announce things, post content that’s meant for a wide audience, etc., rather than primarily discuss things like, well, here for instance.
Thanks for the info, I’ll try this from my laptop!!
Hey, I confirm there will be air conditioning
An AC can only do as much if it has 35°C outside. I am really curios to find out if is “AC made it bareable but we were close to melting” or “AC was set to arctic mood and I needed to put on a cardigan and a scarf”. 
I never expirienced anything in between.
I literally had to wear a sweater to an indoors festival in Tokyo in August once because it was too cold the moment you sat down between bands, or they played a non-furi song XD;; (but I’m generally cold all the time anyways). That said—usually people complain in Google Maps reviews if a hall is too hot/cold and I couldn’t see anything like that for the Grand Arena, so I am optimistic it’ll be reasonable.
For having done close to 300 concerts in France in every venue from cupboard sized to stadium, it’s safer to expect hot air rather than freezing cold. I only once got cold in a venue in France from what I remember.
But granted, I have yet to step foot on that one, so who knows lmao I truly hope they’ll come through though, we’re apparently looking at another heatwave that weekend 
Google tells me that Arena Grande runs an HVAC system designed to modern standards so it’ll probably be effective at keeping it a temperature that is reasonable - which is good because I’m simply not made for temperatures above 70F
They’re not pre-selling the Japanese MDM merch online.
Shirt is already sold out. No wonder because it’s only 5 Euro more than the festival merch and WAY nicer (better quality surely too)

Why are the Shirts XXL only 
They’re imported. People, especially these days (read: at least last 10-15 years), prefer loose-fitting clothes in general in JP, and band shirts in particular VERY rarely come in any size other than “Big”
A bit of a context: I have maybe 2 or 3 band tees bought from Japan that aren’t just generic “size F”. I remember buying one of them in particular, I asked for size M and the salesperson went “… M? Are you sure?”. I’m tall compared to Japanese people, but I’m also relatively skinny and not super busty, so I usually wear S or M for my EU-sized clothes.
The M-sized shirt in question is actually too *big* for me, but the reaction is pretty telling of how uncommon it is to wear not super loose fitting clothing, including but not limited to things like band tees and street fashion (the sizing historically runs way smaller than European and it’s still true for some clothes, it’s just that the loose fits are fashionable and have been for a while)
Edit: I went to my closet and checked, the shirt I was thinking of is actually size S. Which makes the salesperson reaction more justified, like, I’m *not* literally small by Japanese standards, but also the shirt would be maybe size L or even XL in Europe.
Ah, I see. Thank you for the explanation!
Not sure which band you have Tshirst from, but most of the ones I have from VK bands, they had S, M, L and XL sizes that matched europe sizes. There are some oversized/1 size tshirts for special ones, but in general u can choose ur size..
To be clear, shirts bought in Japan? I find that very surprising unless you’re talking about the biggest bands, you can get like, diru shirts in different sizes but your average v系 band honestly cannot afford to make multiple sizes, frankly. The handful I have in a specific size are all “special” in some way and <10% of the band shirts I have.
I checked and even the Gazette seemingly only does size F (I was thinking they might be big enough to be an exception).
Mucc, Merry, Zigzo, Deg…even Kizu…and MDM I wouldnt consider them small bands. But I wouldnt be surprised if many of the festival bands would think of Europeans as “fats” and just bring the big sizes (specially for bands coming for just 1-2 dates).
I definitely haven’t seen Merry shirts with variable sizing at least since pre-pandemic, that’s really surprising to me! Kizu I can’t remember, but I would count them as much bigger band in the current scene than MDM, regardless of how influential Mana is, so I wouldn’t be surprised by them.
I do stand by my “the average v系 band can only afford a single size” statement though 
What do you all think of Kamijo’s interviews? He seems very “Did you know I went to the United States? Did you know? Are you sure? How’s the VKEI movement doing these days?” I mean, he must have some contacts to know how things are going…
Taking the Yoshiki route lmao 
I’ve only watched one, the one with Azavana’s Ryohei, and was already surprised that came up, because I think, he’s the one doing these interviews, they should be about the people and bands he interviews not about him. But yours sounds like he’s doing this in every of them. WTH? And I also had the same thought, that I can’t imagine he doesn’t know, that he will know people he can ask outside these interviews.
