Ri made a quick reference to this back in April: John Harris making appearances for a Japanese Queen locations tour and Queen fan convention... John Anthony getting back in touch with the band... something something early Queen (live?) tapes revival era I haven't seen any other information posted about this John Harris appearance (I did a search), so I thought I'd write about it plus some other stuff. There's a tour package organized by Music Life for fans in Japan to visit London and Montreux from September 1st to the 9th. Highlights include a visit to Ridge Farm, where John Harris will give a talk, and a tour around London where Peter Hince will give a talk at some point. I don't know how much new information Peter Hince can share at this point, but maybe John Harris will have something? This tour will be a month before his appearance at the international fan convention. Recently I learned about another tour package for Japanese fans: from November 19th to 25th, photographer Watal Asanuma will play tour guide and take a group of fans to prominent spots around London and beyond, such as Elstree Studios and Kempton Park, to re-create publicity photos of Queen. He'll also take the tour group to Ridge Farm, where fellow photographer Andre Csillag will join in for a talk. Watal Asanuma promises behind-the-scenes stories he has never told before, as well as a large amount of unpublished photos. He'll also be taking photos for the group throughout the trip. Let's see if anything interesting emerges from either of these tours...

I've known of the Watal Asanuma tour before that one, I think it's an annual tour and my friend went to it last year. But I haven't asked around to see who's going this year, might do it too. deathtoming let me know if you know anyone

Amazing, hopefully there will be some write-up and photos from the meeting with John Harris.
