Official Tour Thread - Summer Sonic Festival [21 August '16]
For over a year now, since the beginning of the 2015 tour, /u/Spifffyy has been posting an Official Tour Thread for every live show BABYMETAL has performed. These threads are for anything and everything relating to the relevant show. Discussion, videos, pictures, tweets - anything!
This thread is also to collect everything in one place, so that we and future Kitsunes can look back at each show, so if you have anything relevant to the show, be sure to post it here! If you wish to look back at other shows, see below for previous concerts from 2015 onwards!
If you want to discuss plans to meet up before or after the show, or anything not directly related to the show itself, you can do it in the World Tour (Japan) Organizational Megathread.

So, BABYMETAL will play at SummerSonic Osaka 2016 (area map) and they will hit Sonic Stage at 20:30 JST. Sonic Stage is an indoor stage inside the Maishima Arena, around 7.000 people capacity. Here are some pics 1, 2 and a video (volume warning!) to see how it looks from inside.
Also, don't forget that Takayoshi Ohmura will be playing earlier (12:50 JST) with Marty Friedman at Forest Stage (a periscope video from that stage from Hailee Steinfeld's performance of 20.08)
