The number of corona cases, especially in Tokyo, is on the rise again, and the situation is still far from routine. The outlook for the music industry is particularly uncertain. In particular, live music clubs are still unable to predict when they will be able to hold live concerts.
The Liquid Room in Ebisu has been the venue of legendary nights for a wide variety of artists. The venue has been chosen by popular and talented so-called "good" artists to support the music scene in Japan. . Now, however, all events have been forced to refrain from holding them.
It must be a difficult time, but the website declares, "We have decided not to look back, although we cannot measure what kind of rough road lies ahead of us." . As if to embody this, we are moving on our own, not waiting. As part of the project, "We will meet again" is being carried out in the hope that after the Corona disaster has passed, we will be able to share the best music together again at the Liquid Room.
Here are some T-shirts with that message from the artist.
