Those two always seem to be right at the front. They caught my eye while I was setting up my drum kit.
Saki
The girl looked like she was in junior high, but I think the boy was about our age... Do you think they're friends or something...?
Honami
I think they're siblings. The way she said, “Yota, hurry,” made me believe that he was her older brother.
Honami
They must be...!
If they're going out of their way to see us like this, that has to mean they're our fans...!

Shiho
I mean, we're trying to go pro, so we're gonna need a dedicated fanbase to actually get there...
Honami
That means we'll need to keep playing our best if we want them to keep coming back.
Shiho
Alright, we can talk about when we'll be doing our next show during our usual debrief, and...
Shiho
We can discuss details later, but for now, we need to keep learning as much as we can by watching other bands.
Ichika
(But we've been drawing in more people lately, so it definitely feels like we've been moving in the right direction.)

Ichika
But I kind of want to discuss our future as well. Do you already know what we should be doing as a band, Shiho?
Shiho
We're currently able to put on decent shows each time on a regular schedule. We've even been selling tickets at a good pace too.
Shiho
Until now, we've been focusing on practicing so that we can perform well during shows and keep playing in as many as possible.
Shiho
But if we want to get our name out there, we need to start doing more than just that.
Honami
That reminds me of what you said about how to actually go pro. One method involved getting enough people to come to our shows so that record companies begin noticing us.
Shiho
Exactly. There are a lot of ways to go pro, but they all involve getting people to start listening to our music...
Shiho
That includes playing at different live houses, starting a band account to post videos, and all sorts of other stuff...
Ichika
We could also start doing some street performances... Although, lugging around an entire drum kit and getting it set up might be tough...
Honami
After all, Ichika, you became so much better after playing in front of all those people.

(We have to keep those who've been going out of their way to see our shows in our thoughts too...)

Yes, it really was!
I'm glad we were able to come up with so many ideas on top of our usual debrief.

Is someone fighting?
