This September, visual kei experimental rock band cali≠gari will celebrate their 30th anniversary. The visual kei band has recently started publishing videos with live footage from past performances as a way to commemorate this milestone and to warm up the fans for the next tour that will begin in June.
Along with this significant celebration, the band also has plans to release a new album this summer, titled 16; this aforementioned tour is also intended to promote this album. Every Wednesday and Saturday, the three-piece will publish a new video on their YouTube channel up to the start of the tour, which is titled TOUR16 -銀河鉄道の夜- (Night on the Galactic Railroad). The tour will last through September, the month the band celebrates their 30th anniversary year.
