They could always try to book plastic tree to appeal to the tiktok crowd lmao cue “kuuchuu buranko.” I’m having trouble imaging the venue filling up unless ticket prices are reasonable which I doubt. Optimistic for tomorrow to see the next band they announce tho.

They are announcing from the bottom of the poster, hence the least popular bands. So if JILUKA, of all bands, are amongst the least popular, I have no doubt they have some heavy, heavy hitter for us.

I don’t think they have the pull to bring anyone worthwhile

They’re GazettE and D’espairsRay touring agency. Not counting all the many middle-sized band they worked with, these two names alone let me know they DEFINITIVELY have the pull lmao But I guess it depends on your definition of worthwhile.

Jiluka??? They toured europe sucessful two years in a row. They can pull audience on their own. What are you even talking about? :sweat_smile: They are super popular because they absolutely understood to use social media and how to use…. Sena’s tights….

Jiluka’s performing in places with capacity closer to 1k than zero and they have also grown with normies at metal festivals and local vk community. having participated in local events here this is totally evident that they are big and only getting bigger. It’s a good booking and again the headliners are clearly as of yet unannounced.

So that’ll be the Big announcements they’ll be betting everything on. The rest I assume that will be trashy bands formed on the late 2010s that will play the same 4 drop D riffs for forty minutes while the frontman screams and members kiss in the MCs for maximum engagement.

I’m gonna lean no towards The GazettE, all things considered. They seem very busy dealing with the fallout of Reita’s death and the supposed label drama. D’espairsRay seems more likely!

:skull:

On another note, I do think D’espairsray is the big name they are dropping. Alright what band do you think will be named tomorrow? What’s everyone’s bingo card?

Just out of curiosity: which vk bands would you consider as a non-trashy ones?

I mean, personally, I consider pretty much every vk band(including my faves) as trashy, whether DEG or Azavana, it’s all just a different variety of trashyness, that‘s it.
