Last week, the Japanese band SCANDAL made their triumphant return to North America after a few long years. New York's Playstation Theater played host to their first showing in the US followed by performances in California, Mexico and Texas. We were able to catch the San Francisco show at the Regency Ballroom which marked the first time SCANDAL has returned to San Francisco in approximately a decade. The tour is titled "Special Thanks" and also coincides with the tenth anniversary of their first US tour.

In less than a week Kyary Pamyu Pamyu will make her return to America and one of those stops is in San Francisco. The last time she was here I missed out (a scheduling conflict involving ye olde San Diego Comic Con) but this time there's nothing to keep me from seeing this show.

All may not well be in Babymetal land. At the beginning of the month, "BABYMETAL RECORDS" was officially formed, the band dropped a thrashing new single yesterday called "Distortion", and a new album based on the "THE CHOSEN SEVEN" concept looked to be the natural direction.  Everything was looking up for their US tour until tonight's opening concert in Kansas City which had one big problem: Yui is missing.

Popular Japanese all-female rock band SCANDAL will be hitting American shores this September. It's been a long three years since they last graced our shores with a tour but that will be fixed in a few months. Their newest album HONEY follows previous album YELLOW and continues the trend of their evolving sound that started more than twelve years ago.
