I'm a Brit and live in London too, and a new Arashi fan. I only found out about them through watching Matsumoto san's dramas. I was like he is a singer...wait singer in very popular group...who are they...ah... Arashi and here I am
hmm I wonder if many people know them in the UK let alone in Europe.
Hello from Kent!
Are there really so few UK fans on the forum??
It would be amazing if they ever came as far as England on tour *wishes really hard* But since Nino discovered that Arashi are quite popular in France, there is a little twinkle of hope!! A little European tour would be fantastic, but I'd probably get a ticket to France if Arashi were going to be there

My parents are both from the UK, and I lived in Bristol for the early years of my life. Sadly I wasn't born in the UK, and I moved to the US. But I feel kinda left out because I don't really connect with US people very well.. Dunno why. But anyways, after that random comment, Nice To Meet You!

Yeah. I laughed a little when I saw the "Homeland" part, mainly because that was the exact word I was thinking of. I spent a month of my summer in Bristol before going back to the US for school. It would have been nice if Arashi did a European Tour. Oh well.

Welcome yeppie! I went to IOM on vacation when I was little (before we moved to the USA) and saw Peel Castle and walked along the coastline. It was so beautiful, well at least I remember it being beautiful.
Anyways, again I welcome you yeppie, even though the IOM isn't part of the UK, there's no other group to join, like me, you are kinda without a group.

Heya! I'm from the UK - born and bred....it's so exciting to meet other UK Arashi fans, ne!
It makes me glad that our stormy boys influence is spreading so far!
Hello! Whereabouts in the UK are you from? (you don't have to mega specific, of course )
Has anyone ever seen Arashi stuff on sale here? I haven't had a proper London trip recently, so I haven't looked in the Japan Centre in Piccadilly yet. I'd reckon they would at least have a CD or two in there. Any sort of memorabilia is probably a bit much to ask, ne?

Hi!
I'm from the Southampton area, sort of South/South West of England!
And I have a friend who's an Arashi fan as well who lives in the same area... which means we can fangirl together!
I have been to Japan Centre in Piccadilly recently...and although it was really fun I couldnt exactly find any Arashi things...I know they sell magazines such as Popolo and Wink-Up, but they sell out really quickly!
I couldn't even get any
But you can also go on their website and order things online!
