In a recent turn of events, Stockholm Japan Expo (where Buono! was supposed to preform) has been aburptly cancelled.
Here is the note from the SJX staff (Thank you to Hello! Online ):
Unfortunately we have to inform you that Stockholm Japan Expo 2009 is cancelled.
There
are several reasons for this, the financial change in world economy,
severe competition from other festivals/concerts as well as poor ticket
sale.
This means you will get your ticket purchase back by
www.ticnet.se. More info about this will be announced on our website
(www.japanexpo.se) next week.
We deeply apologize for the
inconvenience it may have caused and hope that Stockholm Japan Expo
will be feasible in the near future.
With sincere apologies,
SJX-Crew
On a positive note... Tsunku will be joining Morning Musume at the LA expo. Click to read more...
