Though I didn’t receive or find any kind of a proper press release with the news, it would appear that the Japanese Pop-Rock band Scandal will be returning to North America for a handful of dates on their “LOVE, SPARK, JOY” tour. The poster and limited appearances are down below for you to peruse and start watching for tickets. I caught them back in 2022 and you can read all about that experience by clicking HERE.
The Tour Dates:
June 25: Los Angeles, CA – The Belasco
June 27: Chicago, IL – House of Blues
June 30: New York, NY – Irving Plaza
July 2: Dallas, TX – The Cambridge Room at House of Blues
July 8: Mexico City, MX – La Maraka
PiercingMetal Thoughts: Though I think its great that the ladies are returning I am wondering why it has taken 2.5 years and also why so few dates in the run. I know for a fact that many Japanese bands have trouble breaking a US audience but I think that the limited appearances only help to keep this a thing. Let’s face it, not every artist can bring them in like Yoshiki and Hyde manage to do. I do understand there are lots of logistics but I just want wonderful talent like this to reach more of the mainstream that this side of the ocean can offer them. Wrapping up I wonder what you all think about this news and if you’ve seen them before. Maybe you were one of the people affected by their COVID-19 cancellations back in 2022 so let me know how excited you are for the return. I’ll see you again soon my friends. Sayonara 🙂
