Oh my god I'm laughing so much (not at you but the way you describe makes the concept sound so foreign or something).

Aright so a bus tour doesn't have anything to do with creating songs together. Its just that a bunch of friends that happen to be utaite wanted to go touring around and hold concerts for fun. Since those particular singers have a pretty large fanbase (a few thousand) the fans got really interested and wanted them to actually go do it. So they did. Yeah

Err other utaites become members by being asked I suppose? A lot of utaite are friends with each other.

Smiley*2GS and Smiley*2G is based around a school concept. You see Japan has this thing where bands/groups can have "storylines" behind them (that are totally made up of course) so the singers within the group can take on personas, in this case teachers and students.

"Graduating" is just another term for leaving the group.
