I noticed this School Food Punishment song sounded like a metal song I had been listening to. 😭

Just thought this was funny

Looking for MOTFD Logo Hat

My bf had his Mass of the Fermenting Dregs logo hat stolen at a Babymetal concert in NYC a few weeks ago. Hoping to find and buy the same hat but it’s sold out online. It’s the black version of the hat and looks like this. Any leads appreciated! Thanks!

Anyone know any music similar to MIDICRONICA - All Talk?

That sort of music reminds me a bit of Shing02/Nujabes in a sense, but a different type of jazz, or soul music. I'm really not sure what its called, definitely has an oldschool hiphop vibe. The trumpets with the swing-like beat go so hard in this song.

Help Finding this song

Hello, there was a 24/7 stream time ago of anime music, and between min 5:58 and 10:02 there is a song called "beyond the destiny" according to the stream, but searching the name in english, or japanese didn´t help me at all, and the name of the artist or group, is simply impossible to me to get, if anybody finds it, I will be deeply grateful

Here´s the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Radw1VIYtU&list=LL&index=3&t=259s

Question about PIA lottery tickets

Hello all,

I’m sure that I won’t be alone in this case, but I just got two Oasis tickets via the pia lottery.

Well, to be more precise a good friend living in Japan entered the lottery with his account for me. So now I am a bit lost: how can I make sure the tickets are in my name as he won’t be coming?
