Radiohead’s Japanese Tweet Gathers Crowd At Shibuya Crossing

At 17th night, British band Radiohead’s official Twitter account tweeted in Japanese just with,

渋谷 ハチ公広場 金曜日 18時59分

“Shibuya Hachiko-square, Friday 18:59″

# The tweet seems removed now.

It was quickly and widely retweeted among Japanese rock fans, made them expect a band’s surprise Japan visit and live performance at Shibuya crossing, one of the busiest pedestrian crossing around the world.

The Japanese promoter agency Hostess Entertainment announced early in the Friday morning that there are no plan of live performance. Although they planned something smaller in Shibuya, and the strange Japanese tweet was for that, the company gave up running that event as it was too much buzzed over Twitter.

Even though they told there are no events at the night in Shibuya, many people who might not know it visited the crossing road, made the place even busier.
