VAMPS U.S. LIVE 2009 - Baltimore

Otakon week will be insanely busy to say to least...not to mention insanely INCREDIBLE. VAMPS, featuring HYDE and K.A.Z. will be making a stop in Baltimore's SONAR July 16th as part of their VAMPS US Tour 2009!! Words can't describe my excitement - what an awesome way to kick off Otakon. (Thanks for the heads up, Sam)

VAMPS is the result of 2 collaborating geniuses -- L'arc~en~Ciel's HYDE and Oblivion Dusts' K.A.Z. Their first Nationwide tour of Japan, "VAMPS LIVE 2008", kicked off at Zepp Tokyo. Between August 1, 2008 and October 28, 2008, VAMPS played 46 shows at the prestigious Zepp live houses throughout Japan. The tour was totally organized by VAMPS and the venues were custom decorated by spray art such as the now-famous VAMPS castle. The band played 6 to 10 shows at each Zepp venue and every single show was sold out.



The sensation continues in the U.S. This concert is sure to be memorable!
