Susan Boyle came to Japan last year and she joined the national TV program on December 31st then. She was known to Japanese before that stage but probably that show made her more famous in Japan as it has usually about 50% rating every year.
Her first concert tour in Japan seems to have been decided. Coming April she will sing in the Budokan, where is the holy place for the Japanese marshal arts like Karate, Judo or Kendo. Bodokan maybe famous among Rock music fans not only in Japan but in the world because it’s often used for big name artist concerts. The first Rock group that used this was the Beatles back in 1966. After that, many Rock musicians started using this hall. Many live recording albums were published through Budokan. Eric Clapton, Cheap Trick, and many more used it for live recording albums.
This time, Susan Boyle will sing there before 10,000 audience with full orchestra on the 1st of April. Wings to Fly is of course included in the song list now.
If it’s OK with her, her live album is also expected again from this concert stage.
