This was sent in to us by Myoko and I thought I would pass it along. I’m just going to repost the email. Remember, if there is something you feel is important and want posted…send it in!
I actually started this petition because my younger cousin loves 176BIZ and really wants them to see them touring here(US). So the petition is basically seeing how many fans want 176BIZ to tour in the US. Hopefully enough fans will sign this petition and they might come over. :3

Its that time again, time for the random fact of the day. This one was sent in to us by reader Panikku-Kasumi, thanks! Everyone has childhood dreams and that includes Kasumi from 176BIZ. When asked what was his dream from childhood, he stated that he wanted to become a hero fighter (super hero).
What does Big Ern have to say about this? My childhood dream was world domination.

ex.MEN’s80%
Posted on March 4, 2008 at 11:58 pm (4 Comments)

For a while now we’ve been considering a “Q&A” section on Shattered-Tranquility, because we know there are lots of fans with tons of questions and we’d like to do our best in answering what we can (even if it requires some research).
We recently received an e-mail which gives us the perfect opportunity to launch this section of the site.
And this section is called: Ask Ernie.
So let’s begin!
The first question for Ernie revolves around ex.MEN’s80%, which is the session band headed by つかさ (Tsukasa) of ex-bis that played at HOLIDAY SHINJUKU on March 2nd.
The Question
The contributer of the question sent a link to this journal: http://yaplog.jp/razuazu explaining that there are photos and talk about the session band. The questions are is the band complete now and whose blog is it?
The Answer
Well, first things first we definitely have to say thanks for the question and for the link! The information in the journal tells us who the final line-up for the session band ended up being, and that line-up was:
Vocals - テロ (Tero) (ヴィドール(Vidoll))
Guitar - つかさ (Tsukasa) (ex-bis)
Guitar - 愬楽 (Sora) (ex-華族 (Kazoku))
Bass - たら (Tara) - ex-176BIZ
Drums - NANA (ex-MASK, ex-Rosanna)
Ernie was unsure about whether or not it was the same Tero from Vidoll, but after searching the web and reading various live reports, it turns out it was. One girl also posted some of the dialogue that occurred between the members in the MC, and Tero explains he was really surprised when Tsukasa asked him to join the session band not as a drummer, but as the vocalist.
The band was a session band and will not become a ‘real’ band and as far as I’ve read they don’t seem to be performing again. However, AZu will be taking place in another session band on March 30th.
The blog, belongs to NANA who currently is going by the name AZu and until February 15th was support drumming for the band Zip.er.
Hopefully this answers your questions and we also hope that everyone will feel free to send any questions they have about the visual scene - specific or not - to our guru, Ernie.

The event, “JACK IN THE BOX 2007″ which… took place in 2007, has been turned into a special for television and is being airred on two dates and from my understanding, in two parts:
・ March 1st from 1:45am ~ 2:50am on 日本テレビ系 (Nihon Television-kei)
・ March 7th from 1:45am ~ 2:50am on 日本テレビ系 (Nihon Television-kei)
The title is 「日本のロックBOX ~奇跡のライヴ~」 (Japanese Rock Box ~Kiseki no Lve~) and the special features a good number of visual bands, ムック (MUCC), ギルガメッシュ (Girugamesh), ROACH and 176BIZ. Non-visual bands such as L’Arc~en~Ciel, MAVERICK DC SUPER ALL STARS and アースシェイカー (EARTHSHAKER).

More about Tsukasa

Little by little we’re gathering information, haha.
At the end of January, we posted about how つかさ (Tsukasa) of ex-bis was going to be in a session band.
Then about a week and a half later, we posted more information — the other members.
And now, we have a name.
The band is called ex.MEN’s80% (read as モトメンズハチジュッパ (Moto Menz hachi juppa)).
In more つかさ (Tsukasa) news, as of today he has started a new blog which can be found here http://yaplog.jp/tks-tks/.
Seems to be the fad nowadays, doesn’t it?
