I've been spending the last few days looking at top songs from other countries and for the most part have found a lot of good songs. However I've also learned bizarre things as well. The following isn't exactly my cup of tea music wise but at the same time they make Slipknot look like a solo act. In fact it would take over 5 Slipknots to surpass this group.
AKB48 is an all-female
Japanese theater/idol group produced by
Yasushi Akimoto.
AKB48 currently consists of 48 members divided into three teams: Team A, Team K and Team B. Each team contains 16 members. Unlike other idol groups in Japan, AKB48 is theatre-based and has their own theatre in
Akihabara (a district in Tokyo) where they perform once every weekday, and twice on both Saturday and Sunday. The theater is set up in on the 8th floor of
Don Quijote (store).
