THE YELLOW MONKEY announces 'self-encore' additional shows: 'We don't want the tour to end!'
THE YELLOW MONKEY, who had been on their 8-month long tour "Sparkle no Wakusei X" until June 13 this year, will hold additional shows for this tour starting in July, titled "self-encore."

At the final show of their long tour, Kazuya Yoshii (Vo) declared, "I still don't want the tour to end! Can we add more shows? Will you come again?!" True to this declaration, THE YELLOW MONKEY announced the much-anticipated additional shows for fans. The subtitle for these additional shows has been decided as "ネ申" (Nemousu), taken from the lyrics of their new song "CAT CITY." The schedule will kick off with the July 28 show at Zepp Osaka Bayside in Osaka, followed by Aug. 8 at Fukuoka Sunpalace Hotel & Hall in Fukuoka, Aug. 25 at THE BOTTOM LINE in Aichi, and Sept. 3 at LaLa arena TOKYO-BAY in Chiba, for a total of four shows. The Osaka and Aichi shows will both be 60-minute performances at live houses. Furthermore, the Aichi show will have a live house viewing, and the final Chiba show is scheduled for a live viewing in movie theaters and streaming on the dedicated live streaming app FanStream.
THE YELLOW MONKEY divided their "Sparkle no Wakusei X" tour into a total of four blocks, from 1 to Final, performing different setlists for each. Centering on songs from their latest album "Sparkle X," BLOCK.1 featured their 3rd album "jaguar hard pain 1944-1994," BLOCK.2 featured their 4th album "smile," BLOCK.3 featured their 5th album "FOUR SEASONS," and the FINAL BLOCK was themed around a collaboration with their first national hall tour 'TOUR'96 FOUR SEASON "Yasei no Shoumei"' held in 1996. The additional shows will reportedly feature a setlist composed of carefully selected songs from all previous tour blocks.
The official fan club is currently accepting advance ticket reservations until July 6.
