A Visit to Japan (Taiwanese Article)Time of publication: 09.04.2003 |
Because of the war and SARS disaster, artists including the Rolling Stones, Santana and Moby have canceled or delayed their performances in Asia. But it appears that Japan is still considered a "pure area" in Asia. Such artists as t.A.T.u., Eminem and Mariah Carey, all still insist on keeping their scheduled performances in Japan. However, t.A.T.u.'s schedule for visiting Japan had just been decided on ten days ago. Because this Russian lesbian duo sold 5 million copies, with one scandal after the next, while they toured in Europe last year, the Asian media both anticipates and fears the arrival of t.A.T.u.
Of these three groups of artists, t.A.T.u is the one who announced their schedule the latest but act the fastest. They will arrive in Japan on the 15th of April, staying for one week of promotion touring. It might be Russian patriotism... Although it was the company agent that had set up the schedule, the actual schedule for the promo-tour has yet to be planned. By not allowing to hold any club performances indoors, the Japanese record label arranged for them to have a press conference on the 16th of April, and three temporary sessions in Sugoo's record store on the 19th. However, the label reminds the journalists to interview the girls during the first session, in order to prevent the Russians to cancel the appearance.
