The Pillows Are Coming! (U.S.A tour)

Is anyone here a fan of The Pillows? You might have heard them blasting their Strats on FLCL. Well, after crossing our fingers in hopes of seeing them at some anime convention, they decided to have a tour instaed. Here's an e-mail they sent out on their fan-listing:

Hello. My name is Sawao Yamanaka, the singer of the pillows.
We are officially entried in SXSW held during 16th〜19th March, 2005.
I am sooo happy!!
After that we are planning to tour Chicago, Seattle, San Francisco and LA.
We'll be touring with noodles, the band that I produce.
I am looking forward to it very much but at the same time, I am worried for
it will be our first tour in America. We can't speak English. We need
your advice. And so we
would really appreciate if you would answer the questionnaires below.

1. age/sex
2. favorite band?
3.recommending venue/live house?
4. Do you know any musicians who knows or likes FOOLY COOLY or the pillows?
5. Do you have any of our cds? If so, please let us know the title.
6. Which song do you want to hear at the live?
7. What is the size of your T-shirts?

Right now our new cd "GOOD DREAMS" just had been released. And our 35 tour
in Japan will start soon.
I will be waiting for your responce. Also hope to see all of you there in
America.
Thank you.

There you have it. The SXSW thing is in Texas, BTW. I've noticed they left out a few key places in the east coast. Don't worry, though. This is their first tour, after all. If you want tough, I can tell you their e-mail address so you can take the survey and tell them where you'd like to see them play- city, state or country.

Hope to see you guys there :mrgreen:

are they coming near tthe north west at all?
I love the Pillows!

somehow i'm reminded of the movie "planes, trains, and automobile" when john candy says "Those aren't PILLOWS!!!" Sorry, and now I digress...

ah! can you give the email address?

i was wondering, so if we email them about where we'd like to see them...are there chances that they would perform somewhere near there? and are they touring in Chicago, Seattle, San Francisco and LA after the SXSW in Texas? or before?

sorry for all these questions :sweat:

WHAT:?!!111111111111111111

COME TO FLORIDA. THEY NEED TO COME TO FLORIDA >O

What the? Oh god, what a great time to move from CA!!! :banghead: I so would have drove down to LA to see Sawao and the gang!!! :banghead:
I hope they play Moon is Mine though :woot:

Catch you later,
Id

My God!

I can't stand it any longer.

For once, I just want to live remotely close to a large city.

I do hope they come to the east coast because then i can take the 7 hour trip down to New York.

Please, pillows, grant me this wish!!!!

That's awesome!!
Have they determined where they will perform?
And could we still fill out that questionnaire thing? (& where to send the response?)

Sorry for the delay, but they finally released some locations with dates.

Take a gander here:

Where exactly? Can you give me the info on the venue and what not? Thanx.

Anyone know when they're coming to SF? Maybe after the LA concert? Because I would be interested in going to one of their concerts. :victory:

There is info for the LA and SF dates here. SF show is on Sunday. For other shows, just go to the Pillows website. There is a link provided in the table that shows the tour dates.
