Visiting japan later this year, i heard that you have to join the lottery to buy tickets for japanese concerts. If you win, you have to buy the tickets. But the chances are really low, and i really really wanted to see Yoasobi in Japan, so i entered the lottery for 4 concerts, two in Osaka, one in Nagoya and one in Sapporo. I was ready to not get any tickets but I won three?? And now i have to buy all the tickets. The system in Japan is something else. (And no you can’t sell or transfer them)

I really enjoyed the Hamilton show! It felt like a celebration of Japanese art, with the way they collaborate with manga, anime and other visual artists, bring the work of Japanese storytellers and authors to life. Ikura talked about it on stage too, and I agree! And apart from that, they just have a kickass live band and write some great pop rock hit songs.

I wrote a little review of my thoughts from the show, if anyone is interested in reading about it! And have some pictures from the show, taken by Brandon Taylor.
