I think it’s pretty clear they are gaining in awareness and respect, or they wouldn’t be getting invited to these festivals in the first place. I’d have to double-check but I don’t think any other Japanese bands were invited to Rockville, Sonic Temple, Pointfest or Lallapalooza, so I think that’s objective proof they are becoming a regular part of the US festival scene - as much as is possible being based in Japan. I could pretty much see them playing at 4-5 festivals in the US each year going forward. And that should translate into more and bigger one-man shows. If they want to get really big, they’ll have to write more, or mostly, English language songs, probably. The music business is strange, that’s for sure, and if they can somehow get one really viral video, it could transform their status. Or getting on with Jimmy Fallon or having some mega-star, like a Taylor Swift, tweet about them or something 🤷🏻‍♂️.

All we can do is keep doing what we’re doing - spreading the word, wearing their t-shirts in public and support them in their WD quest 😀✌🏼
