First Visual Kei festival in Paris will be held (10 bands, July 11-12)

Yeah for some reason I have a gut feeling their comeback isn’t complete without a trip here. They were one of the first to perform here in general and I’m pretty sure they came to Finland like 5 times.

If B7klan manages to book senketsuakochan to perform in front of 7000 people I would swear to attend everything they ever book from now on

It’s hard to judge without the line up, but yeah, it’s scary. Let’s hope for them tickets won’t be overpriced and they’ll have a few big names, or they’ll have to cancel for sure.

First band will be announced tomorrow, fingers crossed.

I wonder for a 7k venue how much they’d need to sell to at least break even :thinking:

It’s close to CDG Airport so at least that seems convinient.

I really hope this happens and is a success. Mostly because it would be really hard on the artists, if it got cancelled.

Can we get a hint?! :wink:

Oh, they just need to sell VIP tickets for 600 euro including photos with all the bands LOL

And notice how the poster says “Japanese rock” and “J-Rock” instead of visual kei?

I don’t think they’ll bring a single artist worth It for me. Ain’t that company that canceled half of the Nightmare Tour? They would have tonbring my 10 favorite bands to make up for that.

This is going to be us in that arena.

I’m a neet and refuse to work but if they bring Despa or some other big name I’ll get a job and be there.

Gackts YFC could probably hslp sell a good amount of tix. They also mentioned 2 European guests so maybe one of those will be a popular act there. Kamijo is probably the one artist I expect to be there but he’s not a big mover. But, 7,000 is relatively huge tho even Babymetal doesnt do large venues overseas.

The festival will take place at the same time as the Japan Expo which is a very popular convention in France and which welcomes more than 200,000 people.
The venue will be close to the convention.

First band is AZAVANA

Not going to draw 7000 people but that’s a legitimate booking. A real vk band coming up that isn’t just rehashing the usual names. I was hoping they would drop a big name at first, but I love Azavana, so a great start for me personally

I’m old because I literally said who. I’ll have to check them out!

They’re at the bottom of the poster, so I’m guessing they’ll be the smallest band announced, and they will save the biggest names for last.

I’m one legit band away from buying the tickets. I guess all I wanted was for them to show that this wouldn’t be HITT Sana Satsuki Kamijo Dj Sisen karaoke extravaganza and I suppose they’ve done that, and this will be an actual vk event with real bands.
