Arashi Around America 2009

[rinalin.livejournal.com]

Day one is almost over and I haven't see anyone pimping this out yet. So here I am.

In the words of the organizer:

As an average fan looking to reach out to other fans, I hope that this campaign will show the dedication and love that Arashi has brought to us. Arashi’s fans are truly a collection of outstanding individuals with a lot of drive and a lot of heart in all the right places.

As Arashi’s 6th member, whether it seems like it our not, we do have a say in our boy’s careers and for them to recognize us as fans means we have to shake things up a bit and scream a little louder.

As fans, we put in our minds, bodies, souls, and allowances into Arashi’s career just as any Japanese fan would to the degree that we can. I will be bold and say that our hard work deserves an award and who could disagree that having Arashi return to America for a concert would not be the greatest reward of all?

Thank You for reading this and I hope you’ll participate for the sake of Arashi!

by America you mean USA/Canada only, or you actually include all the rest of us? well, there are other countrys, honey... just saying.

Other countries do projects as well. There are Arashi Around Europe/Latin America/Mars/every other country you can think of.

So it's not like the campaign is to single out the whole world. Maybe just search?

Just saying. :)

Paris OMG I want it to be true but Germany will be better xD
(I'm from the Netherlands but I think they will never come here 'cause we're such a small country :'()

Hey, Miyavi already came to Amstelveen, ne? Never give up hope! ^^
But seriously, I think even Germany is completely out of the question at the moment. I think even if we put all the JE fans in Germany together, it wouldn't be enough to get a concert hall full. ;__;

yep Miyavi came <3
but well I think there are a lot of fans.. but they're spread all over the place xD so it would be difficult to fill a concert hall, yes.. but I'll not give up hope!

If they went to Paris I would be taking a running leap across the channel...and dragging my friend who actually speaks French along with me, because I am epic failure in French.
I say they should come to Manchester. They'd love it! The large gay population would make them feel right at home *shot*

OH! i just hope they come to the US (but more specificly to L.A. =D cuz its closer to where i live =D)
but we gotta do something to make them go/come where there are their BIGGEST fans right (other than in japan or where ever they've already)

You're a sweetheart! <3 Thanks so much for this.

To add - this campaign is for anyone (yea, even space martians) who'd like further recognition as an international fan. The Submit form even says, "If you aren't from the US, write your Country."

Arashi Around World, Arashi Around International, Arashi Around Everywhere Other Than Places They've Been Until This Point - call it whatever you want. The goal is recognition - not to say, "Only Americans want this."

But yes I WOULD like to see Arashi perform in Hawaii or the US again. Not gonna lie and say I wouldn't. However, I want them in Europe, Latin America, and all other regions with Arashi fans. too. But how can I as one person represent areas that are 1) Being represented by other groups online and 2) I've never been there! I'm sorry but it is a tad easier to represent what I know and that's the U.S.
