For over three years this forum served as the home for Stereopony fans all over the world. While we are saddened that the journey of Stereopony has ended, we at Very Good Days! must look forward as Aimi, Nohana, and Shiho start their new journeys. Like them, we will start a new journey too. This isn't the end; this is only the beginning.
The "Okami" PV will be released with the 12th single, so Stereopony will be back on that "DVD includes PV of the previous single" pattern they had going for a while.
Also, a MMM tour DVD released late July or after the 12th single.

guess I'm half right... but that's because Stereopony's website messed me up... They're beginning the pattern once again!
Reviving this topic! What are your predictions about the song Stereopony recorded in LA and the PV they're recording? Here's what I think:
NOHANA vocals! We saw her recording vocals in their previous visit. So, if she's not lead, then she's got her own solo part at least... I think.
Evan vocals? He's not too bad a singer. Check out his song "Best Years of Our Lives" feat. Avril Lavigne. http://youtu.be/ihkU05BoeX4
Either way, from Twitter photos, it looks like Evan will be part of the PV playing guitar at least. He most likely won't be singing I guess, since it would probably be better to showcase Stereopony's talents more than his.
English lyrics? They're in LA and they've been studying English. They're overdue for another English song, don't you think?
And finally... I predict that the PV will be sort of like Avril Lavigne's music video for "Sk8er Boi" (or influenced by it) since NOHANA has been skating during this visit and some Twitter photos show cameras being set up on cars. Also, Evan is seen in this video too playing guitar with Avril's band. Here's "Sk8er Boi" if you never seen it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TIy3n2b7V9k
Wow I really didn't connect the skate to Avril but that's a really nice prediction you got there, it all connects! I'm gonna go kind of crazy here but... maybe they are doing a cover of that song???? Wouldn't surprise me at all considering Avril is quite popular in Japan too and before Stereopony, AIMI (with MIXBOX?) covered some Avril songs in lives. Avril has actually been a big influence for a lot of female singers in Japan (YUI is another known example, she is a big fan).
BTW I made some research with my 0 America geography knowledge and found the PV shooting location in case someone cares:
Some more info on Evan, apparently he was in Avril's first band and that helped him launch is career, they are best friends and he was heavily involved in the sk8erboy era:
Haha yeah! That's what I based my idea on. Stereopony was once an Avril Lavigne cover band in high school, and Evan was once a part of Avril Lavigne's band.
And nice, you found a live version of that song haha.
wow. good news. well, for me, I don't like Avril (pls. don't hate me lol) but I like this performance (MTV Icon 2003: Metallica) way back years ago. And I think this is really cute.
Stepo is so much better than Avril.
My predictions... ooouuuwweeiiiaaa... oh wait! my crystal ball is not working.
Hmm, September single (collab with Evan), then another single before the X'mas LOVERS- followed by an album around April/May with some live footage of the X'MAS live
If Stereopony releases an album in April or May, then the release could tie in together with the annual US anime convention visit (AIMI did say "I'll be back" at the end of the tour).
But I think they might be releasing it in June. That's when HgS and OTB were released. Their third album would've most likely been released in June 2011 too if they didn't have to go on break for six months.
For some reason I feel like they might release four singles before they release their fourth album.
EDIT: Adding another prediction...
