-- flumpool's biggest-ever solo outdoor live show of the summer of 2015 will be held over two days, August 8th and 9th! --

TSUTAYA Co., Ltd., which operates TSUTAYA stores nationwide that sell music CDs and other items, is pleased to announce that tickets for flumpool's Midsummer Outdoor Live 2015 "FOR ROOTS" ~Osaka Fields Forever~, which will be held over two days on August 8th and 9th at Oizumi Ryokuchi in Osaka, the hometown of flumpool where the band was formed, will be sold through T-TICKET.
T-TICKET special lottery advance reservations will begin at 10:00 on Friday, May 8th.

This live concert will feature the "T Ticket" service, which allows you to enter with your T-CARD. This T-CARD can be used at TSUTAYA and T-POINT partner stores nationwide, making it convenient and easy to participate in the concert. Additionally, this will be the first live event where you can earn T-POINT by purchasing a T Ticket and entering the venue.

In 2014, flumpool celebrated their fifth anniversary since their debut, released a greatest hits album, and completed a nationwide tour that attracted 100,000 people.The four-member band is now entering a new phase in 2015.
The band's biggest-ever solo outdoor live concert in the summer of 2015 will be held over two days on August 8th and 9th! The venue chosen for this memorable first outdoor concert is Oizumi Ryokuchi Park, which is the band's birthplace and the home of the band members, and is located next to Matsubara City in Osaka, a place that has been familiar to them since childhood.

The first day will be called "Day of Green," meaning that "even though the town's color has changed a little, Oizumi Ryokuchi is still known for its green," and the second day will be called "Day of Sky," meaning that "when I look up, I always remember the color of the sky." Different live performances will be held on both days. Flumpool will be the first to transform a venue that has never hosted a live concert into a live music venue, creating the ultimate musical space.

Additionally, the release of the concept disc "FOUR ROOMS" is scheduled for Wednesday, May 13th. The music video for the lead track "A Certain Beginning Scene ~Bookstore on the Hill~" is set in a bookstore, depicting the stories of the various characters as they come and go within the store. The video was shot at Daikanyama T-Site in Tokyo.
Those who reserve or purchase at TSUTAYA RECORDS will receive an original "FOUR ROOMS" reversible book cover (paperback size).

As the number of customers enjoying live shows and events continues to increase, TSUTAYA will continue to link its stores as a place to learn about music with services that allow customers to enjoy sound and experiences, and will also allow customers to accumulate common points, connecting lifestyles and excitement, thereby further revitalizing the music industry as a CCC Group.
