Our car caught fire on the way to a gig.
About
An unpopular three-piece band traveling from one live house to another across the country. The performance fees are only a few thousand yen, which vanish into travel expenses, and part-time job earnings disappear into equipment costs and food. Naturally, there are no hotels. Overnight buses, internet cafes, friends' houses, live house dressing rooms... No money. No fame. No future prospects. Even so, on the way home after a show, there's a strange sense of satisfaction. "We really have nothing, do we?" Laughing it off, they head toward the next city. Guest — Guitar & Vocals

Intro
The acrid smell of burning rubber fills the air as ominous black smoke rises from the hood. The secondhand gear van lets out a final death rattle and grinds to a halt on the shoulder of the highway.
Whoa, it's totally burning... This is definitely going viral. Hey, Leader, look over here and give me a peace sign! The title's gonna be 'Our Car Caught Fire Right Before a Gig Challenge.'
