Yeaaah, Toronto is a bit far haha. LA is gonna be the closest to me, and I don't wanna take that treck by myself, so looks like I'm skipping them this time. XD

I live in Toronto so I was pretty happy about the mistake haha.

Hahah lucky! Have fun if you go! 

Verxina unexpectedly won me over too! I'm saying it as a big thing cuz I'm veeery picky with these young whippersnapper bands. I think it was the vocals ultimately (I can see the guy has quite a bit of history already too).

Feel the same way as @Jigsaw9! Initially, I did not think I would like them as much as I do now. I was intrigued by their PVs, and when I finally heard the singles, I became a fan of their music. Vocalist sounds great and I am enjoying the instrumental. I'm looking forward to their next album coming out in March. (Where's the pre-order? XD)

I haven't kept up with Hiro (Verxina's vocalist) since gossip, so it was good to finally be able to enjoy something he's in again. I didn't think I would like them as well, but there's something about their music. Probably just Hiro himself, but still.

I believe you might be thinking of An Cafe? Maple Gunman was such a bop.

YES I don't know why I read Ayabie as AnCafe GOD MY BAD. I did listen to Ayabie too lmaoooo I have Intetsu added on twitter, he's such a doll. 

Love the 'Smile Ichiban Ii Onna' song from An Cafe especially the Bou version. That music video is cute. Maple Gunman is great, too. So many good songs from them. Anyways, both are great bands ^^

feel you, my man. Isshi and Shunsuke ex-bis and Eldorado gets me every freaking time.

Kagrra was the best VK band ever, and an amazing vocalist. However, I didn't know the man personally so I got over his death in a minute or so.

Shame we'll never get more Kagrra and that the people involved seem to have forgotten have to get involved in good music. But whatever. That's life.

It's not about knowing the man personally, you can still mourn the loss of an artist. But ok.

I needed the seasonal wind beneath my wings
