JRock Revolution – Not

Thursday, May 7th, 2009 by Kathy Chee

There’s a petition floating around for a Jrock Revolution 2.  It looks like the petition originates from the Jrock Revolution.com website.  Now if you think this is odd and confusing, we’ll add in the letter from the site coordinator basically stating that “the only people who can legally put on a second festival are the promoters who presented the original.”

So who are the original promoters?  That would be the 4fini, a well known event production company that has festivals such as Taste of Chaos, Warped Tour and Lollapalooza under their belts.

Then what is jrockrevolution.com?  From the sound of it, someone got a hold of the domain name, decided to put together a website promoting Japanese music and piggyback on the popularity of the Jrock Revolution Festival.

So where does that lead Jrock Revolution Festival 2?  It leaves it in limbo, the same place it’s been in for the past two years since May 2007.
