So, LoVendoЯ will be in San Francisco, and it would be awesome to meet up and watch the concert together!

 

The dates/times/locations are:

7/27 (Sat) 5:15pm @ Pagoda Stage, Japantown
7/28 (Sun) 2-4pm @ Union Square

 

I will most likely be going to at least the Union Square event, and I'll probably arrive around 2 hours early for it.

 

Any thoughts?

Since people seem to have gripes about the line distribution, I created a thread to talk about how you want line distribution to be in H!P.

Although I'm sure it will be easy to think of topics considering how easily this is brought up, here are some things to consider:
-Is it fair that certain girls have more lines than others?
--Do you think the fact that some girls have more lines hurts the feelings of the other girls?
-Are there girls you think should get more lines?
-Are there specific types of songs you want specific girls to sing? Can/Should a girl have lines in more than one type of song?

Of course, you can just complain on this thread about your favorite/least favorite's amount of lines, too. Just do it here instead of on other threads where it's off-topic. ^.-

Due to the high number of occurrences of people getting side-tracked on other threads regarding popularity of H!P groups in the Japanese idol world, I figured that there should be a thread to redirect these discussions to.

This thread is for discussions about the popularity of H!P in Japan and around the world, the decline in Morning Musume's popularity, the popularity of H!P and it's groups compared to other idol groups in Japan, what UFA is/isn't doing to make H!P groups more popular, etc. Discussion related to UFA policy regarding promotion, graduations (in terms of loss of popularity related to them-in terms of who should/will graduate next should go here), "pushing" girls, and TV networks' policies towards inviting H!P groups would also be appropriate for this thread.
