Better to be silent than banned?

It's the old 'if you don't have anything nice to say, then say nothing' axiom.

But seriously, how popular is that stuff in Europe?

Metal in general or just Babymetal? I'd say metal is fairly popular but not exactly mainstream, Babymetal of course is in it's own little corner of metal. Apparently the group itself is popular enough to sell out a 2000 capacity venue in 5 minutes by themselves. They're also playing some festivals during the same tour (Rock am Ring/im Park & Download UK) and judging by the lineup posters they're not big enough to headline such festivals but are big enough to have their actual logo on the posters rather than just their name in standard typeface.

I don't know why but when I youtube babaymetal I remember I've seen that video before, it was more confusing the second time around.

It just matter of time but that's gonna end up catching on here, it's weird enough to annoy me so I'm sure my kids will be playing K-pop Japanese metal in their teens, God help me.

I'm not the biggest Babymetal fan, I do like some of their stuff, though.

I'm a huge Metal fan in general.. Lamb Of God, Caliban, Chimaira, In Flames.. plus many more.

I've rediscovered the Mad Capsule Markets... does anyone remember them?

80% of what I talk about is nonesense.. the other 25% is made up statistics...

I had the chance to meet the drummer of Lamb of God, Chris Adler, at a dinner party a few years back. Super nice guy. To be completely transparent with this, I didn't even realize who he was until after he left. Just seemed like a nice guy with questionable hair choices.

I'm trying to make myself more informed and less opinionated.

Stop saying whatever stupid thing you're talking about and pay attention to all the interesting things I have to say!

I'm just surprised you found somebody to talk to you...

I bowled a 713 tonight.

If you don't know what that means, I don't care.

Nice! Excellent drummer too..

At least he has the choice for the questionable hair styles... unlike me.

You'd be surprised at how many people you can talk to when you stand in front of the beer cooler.

I kind of want to go see the new Tomb Raider movie because I really like the reboot it is based on but the trailers make it look like absolute crap.

Why would you engage in such madness?

I tore down a large shed today.

I'm currently rewarding myself with intoxication.

I've just had 5 days off work... during which we finished decorating our little girls nursery, ready for her arrival next month.

I'm now rewarding myself with 12 hour shift 1 of 5.
