2011/03/29 Show Announcement: Nano-Mugen Festival, Japan

...folks, another addition to the weezer concert calendar - on Saturday, July 16th, weezer will play at the Nano-Mugen Festival in Yokohama, Japan! This festival takes place at the Yokohama Arena (near Tokyo) and the 2 day festival also features the Manic Street Preachers, Asian Kung-Fu Generation and many many more. The Ticket preorder has started today through April 12 (see the site for details, theres a lottery system) and the regular sale begins June 14.

Even though the festival is quite a ways away from now, there will surely still be a ton of recovery work to do by then in the Northern part of Japan from the unprecedented earthquake disaster. Hopefully a great summer rock festival will help brighten peoples spirits as they continue to deal with the unimaginable.

...an FYI: Male Bonding is opening the Brixton show, hand picked by Rivers.

...dont miss this great lil video that was posted by fan Michael McCarthy about the wild adventures of his custom weezer flag(s) during the Memories Tour!
