DWP Loses koUME & Goes on Pause

dwp-loses-koume-goes-on-pause

DragonWAPPPPPPER have announced that they will be going on an activity pause due to their vocalist, koUME’s descision to leave the band.

The following message was posted on their OHP and in the member’s blogs:

An important message from DragonWAPPPPPPER.

Due to DragonWAPPPPPPER’s vocalist, koUME’s decision to leave the band, we will be going on an activity pause after our oneman live on November 23rd at Takadanobaba AREA.

We talked about welcoming a new vocalist into a ranks and continuining on with activities, however, the conclusion that we came to was that with where we are now, it would be difficult to have someone new performing the music that the five of us made together, and performing on stage with DragonWAPPPPPPER.

We have about a month left, and the five of us will continue forward with all of our power so we hope that you will continue to support us.

The members of DragonWAPPPPPPER

No words yet from koUME on his decision, but a few of the other members have updated apologizing for the break.

The band’s last oneman live together will be on November 23rd at Takadanobaba AREA and is titled “6piece”. Tickets cost 3000 yen a piece and are currently on sale.

If you’d like to catch the band together as they are one last time, they are currently on their “6piece tour”. Upcoming dates and venues are as follows:

October 8th @ Nagoya HOLIDAY
October 9th @ Osaka FANJ
October 21st @ Urawa Narciss
October 22nd @ Ikebukuro BlackHole
