DOES Hello America Cancelled

DOES, the acclaimed Japanese rock band known for their anime theme hits like "Shura" and "Donten", were set to bring their first American tour to San Diego. The "HELLO AMERICA" show at Music Box has been cancelled, according to the official event page. Fans had anticipated a high-energy set spanning the band's two-decade career.

The trio—Wataru Ujihara, Yasushi Akatsuka, and Kesaku Morita—formed in Fukuoka in 2003 and broke into the mainstream with their raw rock sound. They have contributed multiple themes to the anime "Gintama" and songs used in films like "Crows Zero II". Their global footprint expanded with festival appearances in Saudi Arabia, Taiwan, and China in recent years.

Had the event proceeded, attendees would have experienced the band's powerful live performance in an intimate standing-room venue. Ticket options included general admission and a VIP meet-and-greet package. However, as the event is no longer happening, those seeking refunds may contact the box office.
