Acidman, kyumiri, TJ and straightener....hmm.... anyone feel like inviting me there? ^^

[Nimh]

Since I'll actually be in Tokyo at that time (am in Kyoto now), this may be my first-ever live TJ thing.

Unlike Ringo-Bingo, I haven't lost interest.....

When the Kronekodow crew, Ringo and everyone don't get to choose the lighting effects, the show will be really dull compared to a fully planned tour.

Oh? Because it was mentioned three weeks ago here.

I'm going to merge this entry with that one in a couple days, FYI.

After the digital-only release of "tengoku e youkoso", another new song will be available at Chakuutas, RBT(?) and PC (iTunes) from 7/28 on!! It's called "DOPAMINT!"
The new song will be also tied-up in a CM for Glico's "Watering Kiss Mint". That's the 3rd series of commercials and will be on air from today on! This time, the cm will be called "water line". She's dressing a red dress, she has suntan, and short hair, summerish!. The song has the same cover art as "tengoku e youkoso"! So I guess this is a digital single with a bside.

"Dopamint!" has lyrics by Ringo, music by Izawa.

She looks good here (Can't say the song sounds great).

I swear though, she looks different every time I see her. Trying not to be superficial but t'is how it seems in my eyes.

Ehhhhhhhhhh, it's ok. I could see myself liking it, but not obsessing over it unfortunately. I do like the upbeatness of it all.
