omfg my favorite Japan song edit: also reaffirming for me how much Full sounds like the young David Sylvian at times

...why would you do that

I am enjoying the hint of middle-aged flab lol

1: Do you buy multiple versions of releases, or buy at all? (Judgement-Free-Zone) I definitely like to buy things when I can. I don't buy multiple versions just for the sake of it, though. 2: Do you collect cheki or other non-music related items from bands? Only shirts, mostly. (and the occasional poster or whatever) 3: Follow them on Ameblo, Twitter? Certainly. 4: Would you follow them on the street? No, because I sure as hell wouldn't want some rando following me. 5: Dig through their trash? (Judgment-Free-Zone) Absolutely not. 6: Does Visual Kei or other forms of your musical taste influence your style or personal life? Definitely. 7: Desire to move or visit Japan influenced by music? Visit, for sure. 8: Do you read dirt-sheets of bands, like rumours, gossip, etc...? Eh, occasionally, but it's not something I take seriously at all. 9: Ever fantasize about being friends with band members? (JFZ) Sure, I suppose, in an idle way. 10: Do you want to be in a Visual Kei band (or any other kind of band)? Sure. The musical projects I think of for myself all have visual elements in one way or another.

^ this is also a reminder - keep in mind that this revival is part of Kamijo's 20th anniversary deal. There aren't any signs that it's a long-term thing. There are also still upcoming Jupiter gigs, etc.

hamglaze

relax people, this is almost certainly just a one-off

(it's vivi from Moran etc.)

My film camera gear: Minolta Maxxum 5 35mm SLR, from circa 2000 probably. I got this from my grandma when she passed away, and only used it briefly before getting the Zorki. My pride and joy when it comes to cameras: Zorki 4 rangefinder body, made in 1972. Jupiter-8 50mm f/2 lens, made in 1962. (both in the USSR) Also pictured: my favorite film; Ilford HP5 Plus black and white film Sekonic analog lightmeter, made in Japan some time in the 1970s. As far as digital goes, it isn't mine, but I have basically free access to my dad's Canon EOS 70D.
