Newspaper Announcement for the Japan gigs in 1998


Akasaka Blitz, Tokyo, Japan

This show was meant to be part of The Sisters' Summer 1998 touring events.

Like the gig the day before, this show was cancelled.

Allegedly, the promoter was billing the band in their 1985 line-up and not aware of The Split!

In fact, however, ticket presales ran less than satisfactory and the whole thing was cancelled.

Some further information on the circumstances and developments around this gig and its cancellation

are also available at SistersTours/1998/09/07, Akasaka Blitz, Tokyo, Japan.



The Sisters did, however, play Fuji Rock Festival Japan in 2011

during their 30th Stage Anniversary Sisters XXX Tour.
