GERTENA guitarist Satsuki is apparently coming on a short EU Tour next year. Giving the location and history with GERTENA, no doubt it’s a VKBeats project.

I wonder too??? And the rest is a backing track? He’s overestimating his powers

I really wonder did they had any sucess with their other “europe” tour.
because, please this is far too risky, I don’t want those artist to fail those tours and come back home with a minus and only bad experiences.

He wants to hold a fan meeting where he takes extra time for his fans to sit together comfortably and talk, have a good time, and play songs on the guitar.

I genuinely think that he’s going on vacation there and does a solo tour just for fun as well

That sounds so wholesome that I want this to be the truth.

So which one of the vk beat staff lives in Aarau? I’d assume he’s not visiting for the amazing music scene there since It’s a small town with 20k residents.

Well, I mean, venues are a lot cheaper in small towns, so… 
(even though this is true, I also don’t think this is the main reason for the location choice)
Yea, I think their “founder” is from Aarau or sourroundings. They never leave that metropolis out for any tour haha

I wonder if someone from VKbeats is perhaps wealthy… because I can’t understand how most of their booking decisions will bring them any money. Having random bandmember of a niche band (ina. niche genre) perform in super small cities is for sure not profitable. Same with having Zeke Deux come over to play a single show in a venue that had double the capacity of tickets sold. As someone who has helped to co-organize concerts in a large city like Vienna and knows how risky it is (even when you sell out a show) I am seriously wondering how they finance this?

Must be some kind of collaborative effort from the core members of the group. If I had that kind of cash lying around then I’d just go back to Japan myself, but maybe they’d prefer using it to fly in their honmei shrug

Well, it was still a pretty interesting event if you’re a Satsuki fan, but GERTENA as a band just feel way more powerful overall. Also, why not just invite the whole band, since it was all GERTENA songs anyway? SATSUKI seemed a bit down to me, though maybe he was just tired, idk.
I also felt like the interpreter didn’t really get what I was trying to ask, and her accent was really hard for me to understand. I lowkey miss the staff girl from October shows
