Although Babymetal has announced May and June live concerts, it is possible that both bands will have more performances and thus create a scheduling conflict for Leda. Just like what happened when Takayoshi Ohmura has a gig with his band C4 during Babymetal's world tour concert. Babymetal usually have backup members like Mikio Fujioka and Yuya Maeta. So it is possible that Mikio will be the substitute guitarist for the Kami Band. 

There is one puzzling thing that happened when Leda formed a new band. Leda deleted all of his old tweets, pictures and videos in his Official Twitter. He even removed the description of his affiliations with his former bands Deluhi and in the other bands that he plays in. Maybe it is just a marketing strategy and removing any "clutter" in his official Twitter will help fans focus on his new band. And there is also the fact that forming a new band requires a huge amount of work and effort during its first year. So it is possible that Leda may need to concentrate on his band first. Babymetal fans are still hoping that Leda will still perform in some of Babymetal concerts this year or maybe he can shed some light in this issue by posting a tweet that will clarify everything.
