1/XX/03 - Tokyo, Japan Concerts

Around the time of her Europe radio sessions, Chan played sold-out shows in Tokyo and she was interviewed by Japan Times.

They offer the following short review of one of her concerts:

Cat Power's recent sold-out Tokyo gigs, at a cafe that resembled a living room, were organized to make them as comfortable for her as possible. Nevertheless, Marshall apparently felt most at ease playing the piano, where she could face the instrument rather than the audience. When she did switch to guitar, her long hair veiled her face. There were dozens of false starts. She played fleeting bits of songs, tantalizing the audience with a familiar hook or groove, before settling into the right tune. You get what you get. Luckily, what Tokyo audiences got were nearly two hours of mesmerizing, gothic blues.

Does anyone have any more information about these concerts? Where and when?
