I never got into MDM, sorry everyone :pensive_face:. This is looking great for my wallet. Unless the last two blow me away I’d only really go for D’espairsray.

Well I think this event is reaching a scale that would even be an event from a Japanese perspective. If Luna Sea headlines like I expect, the amount of travelling will be astronomical

Tomorrow we will get Dir en grey, the 10th band will be LUNA SEA. :crossed_fingers:t2::crossed_fingers:t2::crossed_fingers:t2::crystal_ball::crystal_ball::crystal_ball:

I was pretty much convinced anyway but now I will HAVE to go!

Luna Sea and Buck-Tick make the most sense to me at this point

Both have Japanese fanbases that are willing to travel overseas to see them too. I’m very excited for the next two days!

Please correct me if I’m wrong but MDM rarely performs overseas.
the last one I knew was last year in China. That will draw fans from Asia too.

MDM is so massive for the young TikTok base. I have no doubt in their ability to pull a sizable chunk. I already see Europeans going crazy (I saw someone post “Germany when” for MDM literally yesterday) so the hype is definitely there. Any chance of Ziz going ?

The only bands I see that really would bring substantially more people is some form of Malice Mizer reunion. I feel like Luna Sea, The Gazette, Kamijo, Kaya, DEG, etc would only bring people that were on the fence about attending anyway and needed the extra push. Not necessarily new people. Malice Mizer is practically mainstream now.

If an ABC reunion were to take place in Paris that might push me to make the trip. But that’s delusional on my end

While it could be cool to have Közi and Mana bands atvthe same event I don’t think ZIZ has the pull the event is looking for :thinking:

Whelp, I have to go. No question now.

In that spirit, do we know when tickets go on sale and how overseas fans can get access to them?

No word on any of that yet. But I’m guessing the link to buy the tickets will be the same for everybody! And if I remember correctly, they usually have the page set up in English as well. But if they doesn’t I’ll translate everything for you guys!

The “non vk band” in question:

That being said, I’m not sure if they’re bigger than MDM
