I think we would all love to see her in concert in Japan or anywhere else.

I know sales are important, but with the lack of promotion lately it?s only obvious why her sales aren?t any higher, the sales mostly reflect the fan base that already know her from her Japanese work. I don?t think that having one single play on a few radio stations (though not once did I hear her play in my area, LA) was actually enough to make her gain more fans.

Also as I mentioned before the petition may not actually get a tour started but it may work as an incentive to start promoting her more since it will show her management, or at least it may make her management think that the few promotional activities that she has had gave some sort of fruit and that she has a fan base large enough (I am not saying her fan base is the biggest thing in the world) to actually start having her do more promotional activities.

Like I mentioned before, IF she ever decides to do a tour or a series of concerts (doesn?t have to be a lot of cities) in the near future (this year or next year), she can do them in small venues. For example, several House of Blues or venues of around the same capacity would be ideal in my opinion since these types of venues would be small but not too small. A small tour may also bring her some attention, radio and TV, similar to the appearances at Sephora. Although it wasn?t exactly a lot of attention but the appearances made her management actually try and promote her during that time, I think.

Anyways, seeing how some seem to agree that it is a good idea to get a petition started, I want to know if you guys would want an online petition or a physical petition.
Here are some I found where we can start an online petition.

If anyone has another suggestion of where to start an online petition please do tell. :)

A physical petition would be very difficult, but it is possible. Maybe, if we have a few people in charge of major cities/areas, we can set up a petition sheet that all areas wanting to participate can print. Set a date(s) where Utada fans in that area and nearby can meet up and sign the petition. Set a final date where all the signatures from all the places that signed it are sent to one location. Then send them all together with a summary of the statistics of the petition to ...I guess...Island Def Jam.... This is probably a bit troublesome for a lot of people, but I think this could work.

edit~

Or we can have a petition form up on site(s) so people can print it. On this form fans would fill it out with their information (name, age, city,state, country etc.) and a comment section of why you want or think Utada should come to that area. Then everyone can mail it to one location by a certain date and then all the petitions can be send together with a statistics summary from the petition to IDJ.

Please do tell how you guys want to do the petition! ^_^
