A page I just made has 14 of their best songs.
Add me and also add the MUCC official page,
------www.myspace.com/muccofficial------
and please mention Oregon in the add request.
Title: I slipped a Mix CD underneath the door of Roseland Theatre.

I called the Roseland today and got a lady, and I asked "Have you guys heard of MUCC? They were on Taste of Chaos" and she was like "Yes and I found your CD under the door, we'll give it a listen and forward it to our tour bookers and see what they can do, but there's a bit of a line of people playing in the coming months, so we can't promise anything" and I was like "Well they're back in Japan right now anyway, but if you could bring them to Portland at all that would be just awesome."

Guys and Gals, please call "503-221-0288"
and request that they consider having MUCC!
Title: Holy crap, the guy is actually interested in booking them!

Great news for all us Oregon MUCC fans!

The guy who manages the Roseland called me back, he apparently liked the CD that I slipped under the door. I realized that I didn't have alot in the way of actual contact info for the band, so I gave him the number for Fontana Distribution (who has ties to Universal, the lable which MUCC is on), and the URL for the MUCC main page, he's actually serious about having the band come to Portland Oregon if he can get ahold of somebody with connections to the band. I mentioned that they were on the Taste of Chaos tour (which only went to Seattle) and that they wanted to come back to the USA for a Headliner. Perhaps he has connections to Kevin Lyman and he could contact him? And also he said if they did have MUCC, they would make it all ages the same as Diru was.

Btw, if any of you have Myspace, could you PLEASE do me a favor and add comments to MUCC's blog asking them to come to OR? I kinda feel like the only one on their blog asking them to come here... Your added comments (and direct messages to them) would be appreciated and further help the cause.

Sorry I read it, haha. Just wasn't sure what to say. ^_^;

For what it's worth... my friend saw them in Seattle and told them the next time they need to come to Portland.  :P

Your friend being XFD, yeah? Yeah I asked him to slip them a sheet with contact info for Oregon venues on it (one of those being the Roseland, but I had the wrong phone number at the time, lol). Hopefully they got the jist of it.

No.. my friend is, um, well.. I doubt anyone knows him here. He lives in The Dalles right now but I first met him when he lived in Portland.

Ahh, well I sent that message to a buttload of people, but only 2 of them actually did it, lol.
Title: Yay, a reply about MUCC in Oregon!
Post by: neko_goes_nyaaa on May 21, 2008, 03:34:01 pm
I got a reply from Misha of JRock Revolution and she said that she would forward the contact info for the Roseland Theatre to someone in MUCC's management. http://blog.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=blog.view&friendID=376516639&blogID=397080073

Congrats!

Not a super huge fan of MUCC but if they do come to Portland I'll definitely go!

MUCC have made a new entry in their myspace blog:
http://blog.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=blog.view&friendID=1000533526&blogID=397567285

www.myspace.com/muccofficial
Blog Post titled "Dear World"

If you have a Myspace, please go there and post a comment asking that MUCC remember to come to PORTLAND OREGON this time, if they do come back for a full Headlining Tour in the USA. You do not need to friend them to leave the comment, but I would appreciate that the comment mention PORTLAND OREGON somewhere in it. Post to the top of the blog by clicking "Reply To" underneathe the topmost comment. Don't use "Add Comment" because then it will go to the bottom or the last page. I'd do it myself, but I'm trying to avoid the two trolls on there (Uchi and Karen) and not let them know the new PDX MUCC Page exists... that and it looks better if I'm not the only Portlander leaving these requests. Sometimes I feel like the only one in Portland who wants them to come... u.u
