(Written on August 9) Following the announcement of a warning for a major earthquake in the Nankai Trough, we have decided to cancel the concert scheduled for August 13. We are very sorry, but as the warning is expected to continue for about a week, we have made this decision with the safety of everyone as our top priority. We apologize sincerely for any inconvenience this may cause to those involved.
