My band's new song - free online.

[StephenSLR]

I'm off to Japan tonight, we're touring with Swiss band Eluveitie.



Does anyone know of any car shows/museums, etc. in Japan?

Just in case anyone's interested, our new song is up online.

Well done. Glad you had a great time and hopefully your band has done really well.
Is Japan like many European countries (Finland for example) where they have a much larger metal-following-population (percentage-wise) compared to lame pop-music countries such as here?

Oh, how I would love just one radio station dedicated to hard-rock & metal 24/7. Instead we have many commercial stations playing variations of mainsteam crap, or a few alternative playing "WTF is that?".

I'm not sure, they have a larger population for starters so I don't know the percentages but they do have bigger festivals (as everywhere else). A friend is heading over later this year to go to their Loud Park Festival to watch Manowar, simply because Manowar are unlikely to ever tour here.

I hear ya! In the USA they have satellite radio with three stations doing just that, you can drive from coast to coast and pick it up as long as you have a clear line of sight to 'the bird'.
