The atmosphere will be celebratory and energetic, with a tight-knit crowd of dedicated supporters gathering to mark 15 years together.

Good to know
Tickets are available through eplus.jp, which accepts foreign credit cards; convenience store pickup at Lawson is the most reliable option for visitors without a Japanese delivery address. Shimokitazawa Shelter is a legendary basement live house with a capacity of around 300, making this an intimate all-standing show — expect a close, sweaty, energetic crowd typical of the venue. Cash is recommended at the merchandise table and bar, as smaller live houses often do not accept cards. Bags larger than A4 may be difficult to manage in the tight space, so travel light. Doors typically open 30 minutes before showtime, and sets at Shelter usually run 60–90 minutes.
