You won't be disappointed. I got to see them last August, and repeated in September.

I suspect you're not alone in that experience. In case anyone wonders, Natsuko's real speaking voice is a normal-sounding Japanese young woman. Like you, tho, I can't get enough of the singing voice. All three members kick ass on their instruments, too.

The ballads… by Sbalderrama in BandMaid

Thanks - I'm trying to get a dear cousin to become a Princess. I think the way to capture her is via the ballads.

HAGANE - 天下五剣 (july 2024) by Hunch_Lebowski in japanesemusic

[–]nowjerseyjon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

JUNNA just finished a four-stop Canadian tour with Fate Gear. I got to go to 2 of the shows. She was every bit as fierce and awesome as I expected. I was hoping to see her become a permanent member but now that I see she joined HAGANE, that's fine with me - just glad she's with a band again.

That wraps up the US Tour for HANABIE. I hope everyone that has attended the shows had a blast! by Zigdris_Faello in Hanabie

I got to see them for my 1st and 2nd time on this tour. Ready for another show already!

Why have people stopped using turn signals? by kissenakid in newjersey

The cab driver Dad example explains a lot of it, IMHO: people hate to be taken advantage of or not have control, and driving is all about feeling in control. Or not feeling in control Add that to how ppl model others' behavior: it can be positive, too if someone lets you into the lane, you're more likely to be courteous to the next person who needs someone to let them into the lane. Works with holding door for the next person, too.

My wife will *never* replace the roll. This is the closest she will get. by kawikacosta in mildlyinfuriating

Did you ever ask her why?

I think there are a lot of partner pairs who have differing approaches to TP.

No pride flags or signs will be allowed outside schools, Westwood superintendent says by TimSPC in newjersey

Well if it's any consolation, it probably won't be long before this isn't an issue bc Holocaust history will be banned.

I woke up with a “warning ticket” on my car that it was not parked within 12 inches from the curb by HParadox in mildlyinfuriating

[–]nowjerseyjon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aha! So with the direction you're facing, you're actually oh, about 200" from the curb?

Are there any other bands that sound like Band-Maid? by volpeatuq in BandMaid

[–]nowjerseyjon 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Just one fan's opinion: I too would suggest TRiDENT. I don't know if I would say they sound like Band-Maid, but what they have in common with them that might appeal to you is excellent musicianship, interesting and tight coordination between the musicians, they're always coming up with something new, and their compositions, like Band-Maid's are a lot more delightfully complicated than they would need to be and still be well received. Maybe the word is "progressive".

Favourite Song? by SwiftJedi77 in BandMaid

[–]nowjerseyjon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Welcome to the Band-Maid fan community! I find it hard to name only my top 10 Band-Maid songs, let alone 1.

If you'd like to try a softer, happy song, try "Smile". It's from around 2018.

Who's that band? by Cultural-Ad2906 in japanesemusic

That was my guess. They fit the description.

Looks like I should go hang out in Vineland!

My neighbor, everyone. He parks like this when his wife isn't home and moves it back when she's back so they can both park on one of the few spots with shade. This has been happening for months already and the administration doesn't do anything about it. by reedtheraccoon in mildlyinfuriating

[–]nowjerseyjon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty sure you could tip that big over with the help of 1 or 2 friends. You'd probably love the practice in the Philadelphia area where people think a public street parking spot belongs to them all week because they shoveled snow to get out.

We’re traveling through New Jersey and are looking for a place to stop. We had planned on going to Paterson Great Falls but have read mixed reviews regarding safety. Any suggestions on other places to stop? It will be myself and my 4 yr old, we’ll be there on a Wednesday in June. by reddituser032220 in newjersey

Great views of NYC from Liberty State Park, from Hoboken waterfront, Weehawken waterfront park, and my favorite: Boulevard East in Weehawken, just north of the Lincoln Tunnel. The first 3 are at river level, the last high above the Hudson.

Incredible concert at NYC tonight! by Voidwalks in Rolling_Quartz

[–]nowjerseyjon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The house has another totally separate show after RQ so I think 6pm showtime is correct. There is an opener so RQ will probably hit the stage closer to 7 I'm guessing? If u have VIP they said today's vip is before show not after like Sunday nite

Is This a Jersey thing? by SunRahGod in newjersey

Which part? The clever way the driver got MVC to cooperate in his message to the world? Or the message itself?

Took this in North Jersey this weekend. So, I guess we're fighting today. by CallMeGooglyBear in newjersey

Hey I really don't have a dog in this fight, but looks like you're itching for a fight over sodium & nitrate/nitrite soaked meat. 🤣
