Upcoming concerts in Japan

16 Jul

What type of music do you like to listen to? Do you go to concerts often?

As for me, I like heavy metal music. Actually I don’t understand why anyone would listen to anything else. 😉

The Japanese hard rock band B’z will be the opening act.

    I just found out that Mötley Crüe and Def Leppard will be touring Japan soon, so I added the Japan tour dates for those two bands to this post above.

      I saw Aerosmith at the Tokyo Dome about ten years ago. It was a “Japan only” tour.
      A good show.

      I also saw a Loudness (Japanese heavy metal band) concert in Florida about 25 years ago.
