As Robin Zander said on Live at Budokan,
"The first thing I did when I got to Japan was buy a Japanese guitar".
i picture Jim doing the same thing for some reason.

Sorry BH, I completely missed this one!!!
I wonder how tickets are selling? I have no idea how big the boys are here...
Hopefully the European dates will get rescheduled but as things stand this is currently the final night of the EU tour :o

I was starting to wonder! I made this for you!

Here is Ruckus' translation. Perhaps a Japanese reader or D'boy or his wife ( ;))wife can grade it for me.
In 1998, with Jim James and Two Tone Tommy as the centerpieces, this band from Louisville, Kentucky was formed. In 1999, they released their debut album, Tennessee Fire, on Indie label Darla Records. IN 2002, they added a keyboardist and released At Dawn.
In 2002, they added James' longtime childhood friend Patrick Callahan as their drummer and simultaneously signed to major label ATO Records.
In 2003, they released It Still Moves and went on tour with the Foo Fighters, thus increasing their exposure. The same year, they also came to play in Japan.
In 2004, both their guitarist and keyboardist quit and following auditions, Carl Broemel and Bo Koster were added to the lineup, forming their lineup that exists to this day.
In 2005, teaming up with John Leckie, known for his work with the likes of Radiohead, the band released Z. Shedding their reverb heavy, southern rock sound, they evolved to a more spacy, worldly sound. Between touring with Pearl Jam and performing at the Fuji Rock festival in Japan, they continued to increase their global exposure.
In 2006, playing their 4th consecutive year at the Bonnaroo Festival, they played a spectacular 3 hour+ set reinforcing their reputation as a live tour-de-force. To help show this, they released the live DVD Okonokos.
In 2007, they spent much of their time working on their new album Evil Urges with producer Joe Chiccarelli, though they still managed to find time to play shows at the likes of Lollapalooza and Neil Young's Bridge School Benefit.
They are currently at their peak both in the US and abroad and it is a matter of time before they are a world class act.
What, no mention of Woody Allen or Ernest Borgnine?!!
Hmm I think you might need to go back to Japanese school Ruckus ;)

You're right about the need to go back to school!
That being said, I seriously would love to know how I did. I think I particularly blew the last sentence and just made some stuff up. I recognized a good bit of the characters but i guess it just says how awesome they are

Alright. I'll stop being "THAT GUY!" Sorry D'boy but I couldn't help it. Although if you are really looking for someone to go with, Osakafan will gladly accept air and lodging from Dulles to Tokyo or Osaka courtesy of Mr. Dragonboy.
He would be humbled and honored.

I'm just jealous so I express my jealousy in extraordinarily mature ways. What's worse is my little brother is gonna be in Japan while the boys will be playing there but I don't think he's gonna make it to any shows although I believe I've turned him into a casual fan.
Have fun DB! Just great to know you can still catch 'em at small venues!
Time to throw out some requests DB!!!!! For you, I truly wish that JJ throws down a chilling rendition of Suspicious Minds.
Just throwing it out there for you, cuz' you never know ;)

Haha thanks Wiz, that would indeed be incredible! [smiley=thumbsup.gif]
No idea what kind of show we'll be getting. TTF & AD were never released here so I doubt we'll get many songs from those. Okonokos just got a Japanese release this month to coincide with the tour...

Well if anyone deserves to hear it, well you are the one. Crazy to think that Okonokos was just released ;D.
I guess anything can happen.
CC... you should tell JJ that the Japanese are
HUGE fans of Elvis. He could not go wrong.

The biggest fans are in Osaka!
Fans Going to Graceland
A floral arragnement sent by Japanese Elvis fans is on display outside Graceland. The Japanese have a soft spot for Elvis; even the former prime minister got a tour of the property. June 30, 2006, when President Bush hosted Japan's former Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi for a tour of the mansion, it became the only residence on American soil other than an Embassy, the White House or any of the other presidential retreats to host a joint visit by a sitting U.S. president and a head of a foreign government. Koizumi, who served as prime minister of Japan from 2001 to 2006, is an avid Presley fan and even shares Presley's birthday -- Jan. 8.

;D ;D ;D Definitely!
A lot of people from Tokyo have a strong dislike for Elvis after some comment he made high on pills that didn't translate very well.

Here's a picture of some people in Tokyo burning their Elvis records 'beatles-style'
You could even argue that the album the kid is holding looks
a lot like '63s With The Beatles but you'd be wrong!

It has to do with Maker's and Coke, in the summer time, and the resulting condensation on the glass that always seems to make a spot in the middle of my shirt where I hold my glass. The size of the spot grows proportionatly with the size of my buzz. It all started with the pics from radio city. BIG SPOT!
It doesn't help any knowing that if I had my old waste line, there probably wouldn't really be a horizontal area to catch the condensation. :-[
Haha thanks for clearing that up Deputy!
At least you're not spilling your whiskey/coke. If I'm laid out on the couch drinking jack/coke I nearly always manage to get some on whatever I'm wearing!
No problem captain. ;)

Dig my toes into the Pacific sand
And everything is rockin' out of control

QuoteSo apparently even numbers are bad luck in Japan?
If you are not kidding, I guess this is an odd floor elevator but many Japanese buildings, particularly those that host guests do not have a 4th floor and goes from 3 to 5 because the number 4 is pronounced the same as how the word "death" is. The even elevator might go 2, 6, 8....

It warms my heart that you and ali got a show!
(However, the Evil Urges EPK reference (you know the one I mean, I refuse to say it out loud) and Jim's most recent choice of cover songs is scaring the living daylights out of me.)

Thanks again guys!
I played the OBH clip from Tokyo for my wife when she got home & we both sat there with tears in our eyes. We're watching Okonokos right now, I can't even begin to describe this feeling!
Pre-show thoughts:
I missed the Jacket the first 2 times they were here in Japan. The first time was way back in '03 (Summer Sonic) before I was officially addicted to the internet & had no idea they were even here.
The 2nd time was 2 years later (Fuji Rock) & I couldn't make it up to Tokyo.
After missing those 2 shows I told myself that I would do whatever it took to see them when & if they ever came to Japan again.
I run an English school by myself & haven't canceled a single class for any reason since I started it 4 & a half years ago. Shit, the amount of amazing gigs I've had to miss over the years but I'm very proud of my business & don't want to risk upsetting/losing any of my customers every time I cancel a class to see a band...but I broke my own rule for the Jacket & have a ticket to see them tomorrow night!
I've been a HUGE fan since At Dawn but this will only be my 2nd show. I was lucky enough to catch an amazing show a couple of years ago @ my fav London venue (Astoria RIP) when i was home for my sister's wedding a couple of years ago. I got to meet Bo & Carl (amazing guys!) the infamous CC Baxter & my good man Mark (on the way to the toilet!) The setlist was amazing (Phone Went West, Steam Engine etc) but what with my sister's wedding the next day & then flying home the day after that I don't remember as much about it as I'd like to - the whole trip was a bit of a whirlwind and is a bit of a blur when I think back.
I couldn't sleep last night...I really feel like a kid on Christmas Eve! It's an amazing feeling & (Haha My wife is air-drumming to Off The Record!) goodness knows what I'll be like tomorrow...
Thanks for keeping this thread alive over the last few weeks! I can still remember lurking around here regularly sometime after It Still Moves was released, finally plucking up the courage to post sometime before Z came out. Cheers friends, I love you all & I f**king LOVE the Jacket!!!
I'll be back with a full report soon...
:)
I've had that feeling. At 4am after driving 12.5 hrs to NYC. Have fun man. I hope you get the whole damn thing in one night!
Thanks Goose! The Jacket + Japan = Cloud Nine!

This just made me tear up a lil bit, not gonna lie. I love and miss that feeling of wild anticipation going into a Jacket show...
Have SO much fun tonight (tomorrow?), dragonboy!
'Da boys are pretty special
Damn, DB, that's a helluva story! Have a great time at the show. You deserve it just for all the sacrifice you've made for those students. They've gotta have the most rocking teacher of their lives!
Have a blast db!!!!!

QuoteQuotename the band and song
Big shiny jet plane in the sky
Please drop us off as we go by
We're an American band
And everything is rockin' out of control
When we hit Japan
Faxes from the veiwers on TV
Karioke hokey-pokey on the screen
Dig my toes into the Pacific sand
And everything is rockin' out of control
When we hit Japan (x3)
Yeah, 20 tonnes of Sushi-lovin' fun
(Yum yum)
The kiddy line will thank you one by one
(Arigato)
Please come out to see us when we land
And everything is rockin' out of control
When we hit Japan (x25)
Yeah, hi ya!
Wo-wo-ho-wo-wo-ho-ho-ho
No idea whatsoever but I love it!
Sorry for the late response, but this was Japan by The Presidents of the United States of America.
