PASSPO☆ Week

It's PASSPO☆ week here on the bLog!

I wanted to commemorate the anniversary of the PASSPO☆'s disbandment by doing a bit of a PASSPO☆ marathon. And then bLogging about everything. Because bLogging about a Japanese pop-punk idol group is exactly why you're here and why I get paid.

I may even include some DVD watching in all this as well! Which is why I went out and ordered all their albums in the limited editions that are no longer in print so I had to spend about double what I could have just buying their regular albums secondhand. LOGMAN plays expert level!

So unlike Kissathon and the Ryan Adams (is cancelled) marathon, I'll be spending a whole day on each album before moving on to the next. Because PASSPO☆ don't have 60 albums. They only have 6. Plus I've made a compilation of all their b-sides. So that makes 7 albums. And even then, if I were to listen to them all back-to-back that would only take ONE day of work. And that seems like I'm just half-assing this. I will only half-ass my actual employment, thank you very much!

So here is how the week is shaping up:

Monday:       TAKE☆OFF + Bonus DVD (4 Music Videos + the making of 2)
Tuesday:       CHECK-IN + Bonus DVD (possibly a live concert from 2011)
Wednesday:  One World + Bonus DVD (9 Music Videos)
Thursday:      JEJEJEJET!! + Bonus DVD (live concert from 2013 + Growing Up MV + Making of)
Friday:           Beef or Chicken? + Bonus DVD (2 Music Videos)
Saturday:      Tracks - LOGMAN's specially curated compilation of b-sides + Live in Shibuya 2015
Sunday:         Cinema Tripすてんだっぷガールズ!~第1話 ダメダメ怪獣にご用心~ + Last Flight Concert

The whole thing will culminate nicely with their final live concert 1 year after it took place. I had to cram Cinema Trip and すてんだっぷガールズ!~第1話 ダメダメ怪獣にご用心~ onto the same day to make it work, but I'm fine with that because I've listened to them the most.

I really do make the best use of my time...
