It turns out that the tri-City celebration refers to DJs from all three cities turning up to the New Year Countdown in Dark Veil’s new year countdown. Don’t worry, I’ve found another event in Tokyo!

A special multi-city party celebrating the countdown for the new year. More details to come.

Sorry for the false alarm. The reference I saw was that all DJs from Tokyo, Osaka and Nagoya would be in Black Veil’s 2009 Count Down.

After doing a bit of cleaning up here at JGoth towers I now feel like to blog again. Man, am I out of shape for blogging. The last CD review was a really bad piece of writing, especially considering how much I absolutely love the CD. There’s not much I have on my mind at [...]

Ho-hum, the pages are doing strange things again. At least Gothers.com is pretty stable (knock on wood).

Since Gothers.com is quietly reaching 600 members I was rather surprised to see this on WSJ.com:
Thirty-five percent of the online communities studied have less than 100 members; less than 25% have more than 1,000 members – despite the fact that close to 60% of these businesses have spent over $1 million on their community projects. [...]
It has been a while since I have blogged here at JGoth.com and even longer since I last updated the events list. It feels kind of weird treading this place again.
I guess since I have been persona non grata in the local Goth scene and launched the surprisingly successful Gothers.com site has taken me away [...]
