Since I'm unable to read Japanese, I don't really know of any english site that keeps track of Japanese bands' (whether it be pop or rock) touring destination/plans. La sighs, it'd be awesome if they would come over to the US and tour (in particularly, for me that is, Kagraa, Kagerou, Merry, L'arc~en~Ciel, Pierrot, Dir en grey, etc.. mainly any j-rock bands) I'd die happy Anime hyper

I regularly check www.jpopmusic.com/news for any news on any upcoming U.S. tours by Japanese Artists (Korean artists too, I believe). So far, they've been pretty good with announcing U.S. Concerts by B'z, Puffy, T.M. Revolution, etc. in the past. A bunch of jpop / jrock fans contribute news bits to the site, so you might want to check the message boards on that one too.

you might want to check: www.jpopusa.com too (although they haven't updated the site in a while....nice T.M. Revolution article, though).

Jpop / Jrock concerts in the U.S. come a dime a dozen....I'm still waiting for Judy and Mary to reunite and do one last tour here *crosses fingers*

If you're a fan of L'Arc~En~Ciel, you'll have a lot to look forward to this year.

And if you want specifics, you'll hear them here first.

There's a lot of indie bands that come to the States often, but if it's big names you're looking for, one of the best places to look is on the con circuit. A lot more cons are getting Japanese musical guests now (Move, TM Revolution, etc), so keep your eyes peeled for any in your region.
