Comedy duo 'Member' (Yamaguchi Joju and Shiio Keita) from Yoshimoto Shikoku Hiroshima has launched a crowdfunding campaign to support their nationwide solo tour commemorating their 20th anniversary in the entertainment industry. The campaign reached its 6 million yen goal in just 12 hours and surpassed 10 million yen the following day.

In response to this overwhelming support, an additional performance in Nagoya City (Aichi Prefecture) on March 5, 2027—making it the sixth stop on the tour—has been urgently announced, along with new limited crowdfunding rewards on FANY.

This tour is a unique project combining comedy skits and song-based comedy acts with live orchestral accompaniment. Starting June 16, 2026, at 12:00 PM, FANY’s crowdfunding platform will offer a new limited reward: 'Premium Seat Guarantee + Backstage Tour + On-Stage Photo Opportunity' for the Aichi performance. Due to popular demand, the same reward for the Fukuoka performance on February 13, 2027, will also be restocked.

Their previous crowdfunding-supported concert, 'Member’s Concert' in 2023, gained massive popularity, with its archived YouTube video amassing over 4 million views. This new tour expands on that success, delivering a fresh form of entertainment that blends comedy and music on a larger scale. Don’t miss this exciting event.
