    Hey, I just checked Miyavi’s myspace and he has dates posted for three concerts in different locations in California. I really hope that’s not the only state he plays in.

    Lu-chan your welcome! As for his web site, it is very tricky. I have trouble with it myself. One time i must of sat for 5 minutes trying to get the menu to work before i gave up lol.

    Mr. Z you are right, with his fast growing popularity i’m sure in time he will spread out further in the world and soon visit more places. =)

    Oh, by the way, I wanna announce here that we are searching for european miyavi fans because we´re planning to do a ScrapBook and a Tour Journal of his European Tour with photos, drawings, messages, signatures and other stuff and sent them to the official adress provided by EMS to show Miyavi our gratitude and love for his music. And, of course, planning a meeting for each concert :D . All the possible interested people go here, please! Let´s work and enjoy together!!!! http://community.livejournal.com/myvproject2008/1285.html?view=18181

    Pebbles, “here here” :D . Yes, obviously from the number of replies to this post, Miyavi is super-big all over the world, and we can only hope right that proof like this (yes in an orderly fashion!) of his popularity can help result in his going to more places to perform in concert!

    Peace – ^_^

    I understand that people are anxious to have Miyavi come to there country, city and etc… But in the future for those who comment on news of his world tour, could you all please be a little nicer about what you say? Enough with the cursing and ranting please. I’m not going to let this entry turn ugly. Thank you.

    Thanks for your fast reply, and for revealing your sources too (juju ;D). It seems it´s only me who can´t see oresama page…sob,sob…when I tried to enter it happens to appear the shadow of a woman who opens the door, and after that anything didn´t care where I clicked {:(
    I will wait impatiently for the info. Take care!!!
    PS: Jajaja!I really would love that he´ll come to Spain, but it doesn´t seem possible at least in some years…here you can only buy Galyuu, and it´s terrible difficult.

    Lu-chan i got the information from this web site: http://www.jmusicamerica.com/us/database-artist-news.php?id=68

    As well as this forum: http://www.jrockrevolution.com/forum/index.php?

    I need to remember to post links to my sources! ACK! Sorry about that.

    Miyavi has mentioned it a little bit in his diary at oresama as well but he doesn’t give out much information. He just says that soon he will release information about the tour. I believe it is still being planned.

    I will post any new information as soon as it is released. I check for it everyday. =)

    I hope for you that he does go to Spain someday!

    Pebbles, where did you look for the info? I tried to enter in oresama page, but it seem broken or else, and at myspace he doesn´t talk about the tour either…I´m afraid I would miss his performance in France, since I´m from Spain and I need a little more time to making the preparations (why the hell he donesn´t come to Spain too?So sad…)
    Thanks for your hard work searching info for all of us! ^^
