This is the J Rock USA Tour Project profile! It is a fan made profile that was created on behalf of everyone that wants to see their favorite J Rock (Japanese Rock) bands in concert but are unable to due to many reasons (money, parents etc). I have neither the money nor the resources to put a tour together on my own however, I would like to be able to have one some day.
I will try my hardest to keep information as up to date as I possibly can but sometimes I am unable to do so. Right now I am in the process of gathering fanmail addresses so that you guys all have one place to look when you want to write to your favorite bands.
I am also going to try to have bands and concert dates that will be coming up that are in the U.S. borders. This is the difficult one for me to keep updated because I am busy most days and I am unable to look for concert dates and bands. In short, if you know of any concert dates than please message me and let me know so that I can share the wealth with other people on the profile.
Like I said earlier I would like to get a tour started. I know about being J Rock concert starved and frankly it is not really fair that California gets almost all of the concerts (sorry if your in California I mean this in no offense). I have plans for this profile that I am now going to outline.
1)When the profile reaches 10,500 friends I will begin writing to possible sponsors. I will also allow you guys to help out with this by giving you all a "sponsor of the week" and their corporation contact info so that you all can write a letter, e-mail, or call to ask them to sponsor a J Rock tour. There is definitly strength in numbers! One letter might not do much but a few thousand gets a lot more attention from CEO's.
2)When I feel that I have enough sponsors to support a tour (the reason bands don't come to the U.S. that often is because of costs, that is why the sponsors come first) I will begin trying to contact bands and their management to see if they would be interested in participating in a tour such as this (many bands, 2-3 days long at each stop etc). I would like to have at least six bands on the tour so that they can play a full set and all of the bands are on one stage.....not three. I know what it's like to try to choose which band you would rather see because of multiple stage performances that go on at the same time. Again contacting the bands will have to be a major group effort so that they sit up and take notice and realize that there is a major interest in having J Rock concerts in the U.S.
3)After sponsors are taken care of and we have bands lined up for a tour we get to party like it's 1999! Of course I will try to have the tour (if it comes about) stop in as many states as possible. I know you all want to see them and I know that a lot of people have circumstances that doesn't allow travel to distant locations (bad car, parents don't allow you to go to out of state concerts etc) so I promise that if this comes about that I will try my absolute hardest to get a stop in every state I can! Heck I might even schedule two or three for some states due to population and geographical size.
4)I know that there are people on my profile that don't live in the U.S. but are still supporting (thank you so much!) so if the U.S. tour goes well than I will try to set up a world tour for everyone else to enjoy!
Important note
None of the above is guaranteed. I am just a fan with as little money as most of you. All I can guarantee is that I am trying very hard to get you as much information as I can get my hands on.
