Local J-Rock Band '2nd Grade Syndrome' at Japan Day 2014

23 ‎February ‎2014

Contributor''s note: "Local J-Rock Band '2nd Grade Syndrome' performs for a crowd at Japan Day. The group was comprised of Christchurch high school and university students. Their name translates to the colloquial term Chūnibyō (中二病) typically used as a phase some early teens go through where they have delusions of grandeur and convince themselves that they have hidden knowledge or secret powers. The event was held at the Riccarton Park Function Centre."

Japan Day was organised by ニュージーランド国 カンタベリー日本人会 / The Japanese Society of Canterbury.
