Posted on August 1, 2008 in Event, Pause

crock54-on-hiatus

C’rock54 has announced that on September 6th at the event they are sponsoring, they will be going on a temporary activity pause, and will be conducting their activites ‘under ground’.

(So basically, they’re taking a break from lives)

They’ve said that doing lives and recording has piled up, and as they want to ‘level up’ they feel strongly that they need this type of break. They do make sure to point out that they will NOT be disbanding.

Once they power up, they’ll be returning to the scene and for the time being the members will be doing their own individual activities.

Their event on the 6th is called “Gang Star Summit Vol.2″ and it will take place at Takadanobaba AREA and feature other bands such as Lupo Label, 針槐-halienju-, Waduru, Roze, Mustema dorcheme as well as a special guest.
