----------------------

Ra:IN will play at the festival FURIA SOUND FESTIVAL de Cergy-Pontoise on 27th June 2009.

At the end of the article, they say "It'd be suprising if they come to Europe only for one show, right ?"... so seems like some other shows will be announced soon :)

Cergy-Pontoise is near Paris. About the same distance from Paris than the Japan Expo.

Righto! (+ they really play their live...)

i should have played the lottery last weekend -.- then I could afford going to France - only 5 hours....... Again, a typical case of " God hate's me! "

they should really think of playing a small club tour. I am pretty sure that there are more ppl outside who like their music and may be not that much into X....

now that's bad really..... but to lighten up your mood..... since they show up rather frequently there may be again a chance for you to see them live, eventually sooner then you might think

Hope so, cause I'm not willing to take a plane to Paris 'just' for Ra:IN. Don't get me wrong, I think they are cool and own stuff of them, but to me they are not among the bands I will travell through Europe to see them.
If they come to Munich I'm gonna see them for sure :)

Post by: Sander on April 08, 2009, 10:16:52 AM
That festival is scheduled for 4-5th July, so it doesn't match the 27th June in the original post. That can mean it's either a false newspost or that they just made a mistake with the festival and they are playing somewhere else.

I really doubt all this is true... there is nowhere it has been officially announced... and the festival in France takes place early July, not in June.

The festival in france is 4-5 July and Ra:IN WON'T be there : http://www.furia.tm.fr/ . At least they aren't announced.

All this is really weird... let's hope we'll get some real info soon (please somebody update rain-web.com :D)

I checked the sources that JaME gave and the concerts are all mentioned on those agencies' webpages. o_O;;;

It's still a little weird as Ra:IN just updated their homepage recently and added new concert dates...for Japan...

Well actually, that says that there will be concerts in 'France, Germany, Poland, Finland, and Italy'. So I guess it's pretty certain ^__^

No specific dates tho. I think they are waiting to confirm all dates and locations and then announce the tour (not like X XD)

Junek from X Boards said Ra:IN will play in Warsaw, Poland on 24th, but failed to provide a source.

I hope he's wrong, it'd suck if I'd have to go to Poland on the summer solstice celebrations here.

YAY ! June 18 would totally rule ! Any idea of where in Italy, and where does this info come from ? Anything reliable ?

I so hope they'll play in Milan (only 5h drive from here 8)). Plus, I'm looking forward to meet some italian X-Freaks !

Post by: Sander on April 22, 2009, 03:10:48 PM
Ok the guy at X Boards says that they changed the date of Warsaw live to 21.06 (also changed on the website (http://www.hydrozagadka.waw.pl/imprezy/171/rain-japonia.html)) and added a new gig at Gdynia (Poland) for 25.06.

He didn't state his sources tho, I'm looking for a confirmation on the Gdynia live.

I was talking to manager of Ucho (club where they will play in Gdynia, and it's rather sure. Also last.fm event is added by the club  (http://www.last.fm/event/1038539). 
Title: Re: Ra:IN in concert in France on 27th June 2009
Post by: Maverick on April 22, 2009, 04:55:28 PM
Would be likely that they play in Poland before the gigs in Germany, tho, considering the geographical position: Poland --> Germany --> France... and Italy whenever they want ;D

They're going to play 2 concerts in Poland. That's amazing. A guy, who knows Yoshiki is going to be in Poland. He has to tell Yoshiki that I love him xDDDDDDDDDd. *joking*. But seriously, It's amazing that my country has been noticed by jrock bands. Maybe someday X Japan will play here, too.

I really hope they play more than just 5-6 shows though. There's some nice venues in Lausanne btw !! Ra:IN, if you're reading me, come to Lausanne ! :D :D :D :D

Anyway, I won't complain or anything, I just want to see them at least once in Europe this summer, and well, it will happen ! :D Yay !

I updated the first post with all the confirmed dates. I haven't found any source for TiBer0use's list, but it's correct this far, except the two last dates that I haven't seen mentioned anywhere. They did announce the July 3rd concert at Japan Expo yesterday though.

EDIT: The Rock for People festival is written on their MySpace (http://www.myspace.com/rainwebspace) calendar, so I guess it's true.

EDIT2: Ra:IN is also listed in the program at Rock for People festival's Program, so it's really true.

It hasn't been announced yet. Should be here when it is : http://www.japan-expo.com/art-212-fr-rain.html

Are you coming to Köln or Berlin XScars ?
Title: Re: Ra:IN European Tour 2009
Post by: XScars on June 12, 2009, 12:47:45 PM
I thought about going to Cologne but the train is too expensive with all the other travels I have planed right now...

I have no luck with seeing rain.. at last years expo I saw 5 minutes before I had to leave and catch my plane... I will be in berlin 4 days before pata ... ( I didn't know that he would be there... ) and I go to japan expo (again without knowing that he would be there) but I arrive at friday evening...  and for the guitarbattle thing... I leave on sunday ...  :-\ :-\ :-\ :-\ :-\

Ouch :( If you can, try to find a way to go to Köln ! I know there are some cheap train tickets in germany, not sure how it works though (and if some are still available).

A lot of X Freaks are going there !!!
Title: Re: Ra:IN European Tour 2009
Post by: XScars on June 12, 2009, 02:40:34 PM
its cheap when you book 3 months in advance and are lucky enough to get the special offers.. right now it would cost me around 170 euros to get to cologne and back... Its also a time problem, because the weekend before I'm in Berlin, the week after I go to paris and from paris to spain... (where pata also plays but in another town and the day before)... 

now I hope that pata plays friday later in the evening because we arraive at 17:30 and the expo is near the airport so if he plays late I might be able to see him playing...

You really ARE unlucky !!!

Can't you take a flight sooner on friday 3rd ? But I guess they'll play at around 5-6pm :(

Check www.japan-expo.com , they should soon release the program !
Title: Re: Ra:IN European Tour 2009
Post by: XScars on June 12, 2009, 03:30:55 PM
no, I can't change that flight, its already booked and also I'm with friends who have to work on that day...

well, I guess its not meant to be...  maybe I'm crazy enough to make a spontanous trip to cologne... I could go by car, it would be cheaper, but its around 400km...  :-\
Title: Re: Ra:IN European Tour 2009

Ra:IN play on Friday, between 17:10 and 17:55.

Konbanwa Minasan! (Good evening everybody!)

Greetings from Japan.

I got a great present today from my Japanese friend.
He went to the Ra:IN concert in Tokyo on June 6th, which I couldn't attend because of miscalculation in date of arrival to Japan.

So I gave him my concert ticket and today he gave me something he got from the concert.
A Ra:IN tank top with all members' autographs (dedicated to me: "to Joonas")

I've also been buying a lot of X Japan stuff here: Yoshiki's book, some X singles and the "X Singles"

Lucky you Orbis and really, unlucky you Katrin. Where in Germany do you live? And X fans ARE crazy, so a spontaneous trip to Köln would be just the thing you should do! The gig will be a blast!

Ra:IN cancelled their show in Spain on 4th July 2009.

They added a date in St. Petersburg on 30th June 2009.

I live near Stuttgart... and I was crazy enough to fly to Tokyo for a x japan concert, and ended up in paris and the us, but I just can't find the money to go to cologne... I already had other travel expenses and also have to prepare for my paris and spain 'expedition' on that weekend... so, no ra:in for me this year..

Ra:IN concerts in Warsaw were amazing. The first one was amazing, I could touch Pata hahaha... Signing session was great, too.. I have photos with all of them. And the bonus concert was outstanding xDDDD...

Post by: myuu on June 28, 2009, 10:45:30 PM
it was AWESOME in Köln :D.
so great to see them performing right in front of you in their best shape. :)
furthermore they did a signing session outdoors (seemed like it wasn't planned but they did) so I could let sign my Ra:IN poster which I bought right after the concert and shook hands with all of them except DIE (he forgot it or something like that I think...he signed my poster and I was talking with him a little while the next signing piece came LOL.. well I nevermind).

the second highlight on this evening was to meet Sander, Asuka and Mav :3. Thank you that I could met you guys, you rock!! And I'm totally sorry that I left without saying a word. my friend told me right after the signing session that we have to hurry and shall do this immediatly otherwise we wouldn't catch the train. I said that I wanted to say some people goodbye but he said again if we would stay a few seconds more we won't be home tonight..... -_-
... I'm so sorry guys... hope next time I can invite you for this matter on a drink? I'd be pleased.

I absolutely enjoyed the show in Köln, as did my friends, who were very sceptical at the beginning. It was simply great. I got the chance to shake hands with all of them, with DIE mentioning I had a very strong handshake, hehe.

And it was really great to meet everyone aswell! Too bad you had to leave so suddenly, Myuu. :( Would have been cool to drag you with us to hang out the rest of the evening *laughs* XD Well, next time ;)

I havent been on the concert in france since I'm not such a biiig fan of rain but I went to the "signing session", not realy knowing what is gonna happen there. Anyway, I wanted to talk to a friend there and then suddenly Pata came out of the shop where the venue was, standing direct next to me, without any bodyguards or anything. I was a bit like "Oh!"
But he seems to be a realy nice guy and he has such cute warm eyes :D
