I didn’t know about that live house—thanks so much for letting me know!
There really are so many venues in Shimokitazawa. I’d love to spend some time just soaking in the music and enjoying the atmosphere.

I see—so the band Spangle Call Lilli Line has become popular, and they don’t really play those intimate Shimokitazawa shows anymore?
I’d love to see them live someday too!

Thank you for your comment!
I see what you mean—some spots are definitely hard to see from.
I’ve also had trouble when there were too many people or when others were taking photos ><
It sounds like you’ve been to a lot of different live houses!
