Ryukyu-no (Okinawan) Rock – JET

The band would like to thank everyone who showed-up for the Rock ‘Till the Morning Sun CD Release Party at Top Note last night. We hope you had as good a time enjoying the music as the musicians had performing for you. A special note of thanks goes to Aya and EZ band for starting the night off with excellent perfomances and getting everyone “in the mood.” Again thank you all for your continued support.

I upgraded to WordPress 2.0.2 today. If you find any bugs please let me know.

Also I want to remind everyone that although there are many "JET" sites on the net, the only official and current sites associated with the Ryukyu Island rock band JET are:

Ryukyu-no (Okinawan) Rock 琉球のロック℠ – JET

and

JET – "Because Everyone Knows the Ryukyu Islands Rock and Roll"™

As I mentioned before, there seems to be an ongoing problem with one of the search engines listing a page that does not even exist (?page_id=9). I read somewhere that having an entity in the title causes trouble with a site. So I rearranged the name, Ryukyu Island Rock ‘n’ Roll 琉球搖滾樂™ (which ends with the trademark entity), to see if that will help the situation. I am sorry for any inconveniences this may have a caused. This is still the official website of the Ryukyu Island rock band JET.

UPDATE: the correct id for the page was (?p=9).

Due to a reoccurring problem, I had to re-vamp the site today. I was able to transfer most of the earlier info. Sorry for any inconvenience.

On Okinawa, most musicians jam with more than one band.
On those nights when Kochan is unavailable, Atsushi and Tachi take turns sitting-in on the drums. Both are members of the Asian-music style band Taiyofu Orchestra and former JET band drummers.
