An Cafe break...

Listening to: An Cafe playlist
Mood: Shock
This is more of a rant, but it's better to let things out instead of holding them in. If you don't know (which I'll be surprised it you don't) my favorite band is a Japanese Oshare Kei/Visual Kei band known as An Cafe (sometimes as Antic Cafe). There was an official announcement that after their concert at Budokan 2010 they will be taking a "break". Though the wording sounds like they might break up, it mentions a restart. But it doesn't say when though, so they could be gone for years before coming back!
I got the text from Tati about it, and after a class I rushed back to my dorm to check out LiveJournal which has the trasnlated post. It was true. Even though it's been a few hours from the text, which made my heart stop, I think I'm still in shock. I did tear up a bit, but I feel like the news still hasn't hit me yet. I have a bad feeling that it's going to hit me hard sometime this week.
I mean, I love this band. I've never seen a band treat their fans so well, they even gave their fans names (Cafekko), and they give a glimpse of their personal lives to the fans to remind them they are human too. The fans even have their own song dedicated to them. Their music is always positive (and I'll admit a few are perverted, which can't be helped, Miku, who writes all the lyrics, is a bit of a pervert), but the music is so different from what I normal listen to. An Cafe is one of the few bands that can put a smile on my face without trying, and brighten up my day almost all the time.
It may seem like I'm over exaggerating but for some reason, it's all true. I don't know what I'm going to do while they're on break and I pray that they don't break up. I may have most of their music from their six years of being together, but not being able to look forward for new music, magazine scans of their latest outfits, and just fun info on how their lives are going... I don't know what I'm going to do. I know life will go on, but life is going to feel empty for a long time.
