Many of you know that due to the devastating Tohoku Pacific Ocean earthquake and tsunami, many families in Japan have been separated.

Visual kei band Kiryu�s bassist Hiyori has blogged that a few members from other bands haven�t been able to reach their families. These people are MoNoLith�s Takafumi and Wizard�s kaito. Wanting to help in the search, Hiyori writes:
