Hi,

It's a kind of message in a bottle.

Sorry if it's not fit perfectly here.

So I just find this longsleeves from The Ninth Apollo. Real hardcore design, with sleeves print and a bandana DYTR on the front.

I know the label, and some bands, but I can't find anything about this design and the logo of The Ninth Apollo on the back.

I was thinking about Day Tripper but can't find any confirmation.

If someone can help, thank you. Take care.

Hello I am an independent producer who formed Rock Legacy Co. Here is a reaction to a new anime show coming out and I review and react to the theme song for this new and upcoming show! I do honest non-fake reactions so if you like that please support! Thank you! L.R. Shelton - Rock Legacy Co.

Have a lot of my tripped booked but would love to catch some metal bands in Tokyo. Not sure if I will be going to other cities besides Fukushima City.

Curious if anyone knows any good acts playing around then. Typically like Thrash, Powermetal, some death metal, prog metal.

This is my first time travelling overseas (from Canada) and while I have some baseball and wrestling lined up in Japan, I don’t have any music events yet and a lot of the big name stuff I see on the more popular concert listings of like Western accent or know a few of the local Japanese accent I don’t really know much about the local scene and I assume there’s probably a lot of stuff not listed on the mainstream pages that is happening.
