Shiina Ringo has been to England already, but not recently, and not while there'd be anyone outside of Japan to recognize her on the streets.

Asai Kenichi gets around a lot, and you never hear about it while it's happening - which kind of pisses me off, because I would totally fly to Arizona or some other place in North America if I knew he was there at the time (he's also done recordings and minor gigs in England). It wouldn't be creepy or anything, because he's a male, and I'm a heterosexual male, and I don't have any plans to shoot him after shaking his hand or getting his autograph.

I got into Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra less than one year after they did a small and seemingly one-time tour in the US. I never even heard about this tour, but I saw it on a bonus DVD and.. it's yet another thing I get to grate my teeth about.

I was almost paralyzed when I actually did meet with HZM (touring with PE'Z), and Nabana (from detroit7) though. Most of us would probably like to think we'd be ready to meet Shiina Ringo in-person, but the reality is half of us would practically shit ourselves and almost turn into statues within a few feet of her.
