not going to Otakon

Forgot to post you guys that I won't be making it to Otakon this year, because I will still be in Japan that weekend. ^_^ I hope you guys have a lot of fun, I'm really sad I'll miss both the 4chan and the Something Awful gathering there. ._.

I found out over the weekend that musical guests this year are going to be The Indigo and Piano Squall. >_> While I do like all of the one The Indigo song I've heard, they're not on my list of "I'd totally haul ass to go" (Which is only Asia-Kung, Flow, and Orange Range.)

Sorry, guys. Good news for me, cause I guess it'll cost me less. >_> Take pretty pictures for me. ^_^

Also, did you guys know that Orange Range basically has boy band status here in Japan? XD Apparently their only fans are teenage girls along the same lines of KinKi Kids or SMAP (basically the equivalents of N'Sync and Backstreet Boys in the States). My faith in the awesomeness of Orange Range has been severely shaken. T_T *sad*

I'm going to put more of my faith in Flow, who do, to my knowledge, compose their own songs. And in Asia-Kung, despite the fact every single song of theirs almost sounds the same, and often when I'm listening to their albums (especially Kunkei Five) I can't tell when the tracks have changed. >_>
