Sorry, there are no plans for multiple conventions at the moment.

If anyone does a US "tour" they do it during the summer when cons are so close together. You're unlikely to see, at least at this point any major J-music act doing a con tour, they simply cannot takethe 3 weeks out

I'm a bit confused, what does touring have to do with anything?

Anyway, the only artists that have ever "toured" cons is Duel Jewel, and they're not major by any sense of the word.

I'm glad to hear someone else say that. They are decent musicians, but I almost choked when I saw someone on Otakon's board requesting them as a musical guest, when Otakon can get star-quality acts.

US Fanboys/girls seem to invent celebrities just to have them. That's how dub actors get such egos(*cough**cough*Tiffany Grant*cough*) and gain the illusion they have talent.

Don't worry, you're not the only person who feels this way, especially among the Jpop fan scene.

Of all the musical guests to appear at conventions, the only major artists so far have been TM-R, move, and Koda Kumi with the latter two appearing at relatively small conventions.
