this officially has been the best april fools joke of all time.

everyone who bought tickets to see a perfect circle aaacctuaally got tickets to see tool in desguise.

there is a percentage of fans of apc that have converted from tool fans and wont mind obviously

the rest of everyone who doesnt like tool will then try refunding thier tickets to ticketmaster; tool effectively getting back at ticketmaster for raping fans of music, haha doesnt it all make sense?!

thank you thank you but seriously wtf

Disappointed in opening act, atleast what is on YT…
Oh well, I paid to see APC so I am not that perturbed.

Icing on cake would be if they only played Emotive.
Heres to hoping that doesn’t happen.

Im not sure that the all girl Jap punk rock band will fair well in Grand Prairie, TX. This area only tends to like hard rock/metal thanks to Pantera/Dime Bag.

Hell, The Mars Volta got booed very loudly by the crowd last time they came to Grand Prairie to open for APC back in the early 2000’s.

Thanks for nothing.

Also, bands like the above make me drool since I was in Japan and got to see a couple of similar ones in person.

no one else sees this as ridiculous? is apc that nervous about the quality of their performance that they want to ensure that they arnt going to be shown up by the opening band? ive even listened to japanese punk, like gastunk and balzac, but this bands terrible lol

My three year old son and I just watched the clip and we both thought it was great. I would go see them anyway.

If I were Japanese right now, I’d take opportunity to get out of there for the summer, too.

Even if you’re not Japanese and/or you can barely speak the language, it would still be great to see them for fun.

Not too many people understand Boris here, but they have a pretty big cult following in Japan.

Yet another reason to be glad I didn’t buy APC tickets.
I’m listening to Triad from 5-21-02 right now and in thinking about it, APC never even came close to what Tool does, at least in my eyes.
And I LOVE APC.
I find this opening band to be shit and I think someone in the APC should be reprimanded for poor humor/taste.
Hopefully, hopefully, it at least got someone laid. (I mean, Maynard is into Asian bitches…)
Who knows?

Since when has the support act been a reason to not go to a concert?

Did I not say YET ANOTHER reason?

This opening act only adds insult to the injury of Maynard’s pining vocal abilities and the FACT that this tour is a cash-grab/dick-suck.

I hope Billy’s mortgage is doin’ alright…

I hope they play the Vonage commercial theme like they did in that one movie…worth the $72.00 right there, son…

i don’t think i’ll be rushing to make it to these shows on time….Hellboy made a pretty damn valid point when saying something about judging a band by a couple youtube clips, but i would be surprised if i ended up liking this band. i’ll give it a chance, of course. Also stated above was how loud The Mars Volta was back in 2000 when they first toured with APC….that’s a damn good analogy cuz they ended up being one of my all-time favorite bands. i even listen to them more than TOOL nowadays, til the new album comes out,… Read more »

Looks like 200L is vying for FourthEye Troll Of The Month, and he’s giving Jarred some stiff competition too. Let the games begin!

I was just thinking we should call APC an all-boy band to be politically correct.

I have really enjoyed attending the recent cash-grab/dick-sucking events! It has been highly entertaining the last 13 months or so.

teen misogyny / borderline racism apart, i think its a given now that touring is the main way bands make money nowadays – as it was back in the 60s apparently.

Hellboy: [quote post=”2888″]not as ridiculous as judging a band on a few youtube clips[/quote] In this modern digital age you would think that bands would realize that they are indeed going to be judged/decided on by the content available online. That being said if I was in a band and I wanted people to like my stuff, I would definitely put only my best material online so as to present the proper image of what I represented. (I.E buy some damn microphones that don’t crackle and fix the mix so vocals can be heard) On second thought though, they are… Read more »

[quote comment=””]I agree completely with what you’re saying bigboy, bands can and will be judged by media found online, however in my opinion, judging a band completely without seeing them live is always premature. Many is the time I have seen a band live at a festival and have been blown away by how good they were live, despite other things that suggested to me that they were uninteresting.

Nice thought but pretty hard to control what ends up on youtube and the net.

I would LOVE to see an all girl Jap band like Red Bacteria Vacuum! Who cares what they play, id just like to stand to the side wearing tracksuit pants and watch them jump up and down. I think their drummer is hot sushi mmmmmmmm. Its just that my wife wont let me go because she knows i like Asian women and might feel threatened or someshit. I watched the YouTube clips and i judge THUMBS UP!!!

Man a lot of negativity on this thread.. What did you jokers want, an opening band that was like ToOl or APC?

Did you actually listen to the song for more than 10 seconds or were you too busy making superficial judgements based on a quick visual perception?

They are not the greatest but the song was decent, the rocked hard for over 4 minutes and had some good changes.

It’s good to experience something new, especially with music..

bro we listened to the song and didn’t like it. end of story. what do you want us to do? pretend like we love this band just because apc wants us to? to each his own. i hope you go to the show and enjoy them. i for one would rather have a root canal than listen to this band for more than 2-3 minutes. i just hope the audiences show some respect and don’t start booing like idiots while they’re on stage. if you really can’t stand them get up and go do something else until they’re done.

Cool man, thanks for speaking for the group..

I was just going off of the fact that nearly every comment on here were not related to their music and mostly based on the fact that their girls from Japan with some smart ass comments about that. Few people actually commented on the actual music..

So yeah I guess I am just wanting people to like them because how dare anyone not like a band opening for APC or Tool, right? 🙂
