And it doesn’t look like Abingdon Boys School were dressed like school girls (of course I don’t know much about the band so I could be wrong).


However, to me two performers that looked like they dressed like school girls were Koda Kumi and that guy who was performing with Akon (what the heck was he wearing).

I also think they could make entire DVD based on the Linkin Park set.

The "highlights" I saw from Japan were Linkin Park, Rihanna, and Xzibit (why Xzibit is in Japan I will never know).

Genki Rockets


Wow I didn't know Genki Rockets were an actual band since as far as I know they only have one song from Lumines 2 called Heavenly Star. But hey I like the song. I just though they were a one time group put together for the game.

But hey they have a MySpace Page!

And apparently they do have more than one song Anime hyper

Abingdon Boys School is the new band for the TM-R vocalist. According the MSN profile, they're named after the school the members of Radiohead attended--hence the school uniforms.

I'm watching the MSN stream, but I'd rather actually see Kumi on the TV. The only "highlight" they've shown from Japan since I started watching was less than a minute of YMO Sad


I knew about the school since I love Radiohead just confused about the genre.

I guess to get people to watch the concert? Sarah Brightman was in Shanghai and she's not Chinese. I guess to tell people the mood of the concert. Tokyo was more of a teen concert, same with Germany (Shakira isn't German) and by showing well known artists in different places it will attract the target audience.
