I'm not from Texas. I'm from California, and naturally, as a J-rock-loving Californian, I will be going to the following concerts this year:
6/28 - The Pillows @ Slim's, San Francisco
7/5 - Hyde @ Slim's, San Francisco
11/?? - Mortelle, hopefully Aliene Ma'riage, various other bands @ Jrock Connection, Santa Clara
I will be missing the Dir en grey concert in Sacramento because I'll be in Japan sitting in holes and making okonomiyaki. Ironic.
