Yes, I was going to mention that then forgot, heh. I will want to be arriving nice and early to the concert to be able to buy some goods.

Well, we have time left. It's not like we'll spend 2 hours in Yokohama china town, and eating at the Ramen Museum won't take 1.5 hours. It's all taken very widely, and sight seeing doesn't take hours; last time I had much time left.
So we will surely be able to be at the arena at least an hour before doors open, don't worry. I want to buy tour goods as well

1 hour is really not enough to buy anything. trust me. i waited for 5 hours and got stuff like towel, wristband and HP strap only. quite disappointed.

haha. go together and get high together!!! i nearly fell down the stairs while jumping!

Heh, sounds like fun

What do you mean by stadium seats? Up there high you mean, and arena is the "center" part there? Well, I just have to hope there are some stores that sells reasonable tickets

Yokohama Arena is an exception 'Arena' tickets are on the side, while 'Center' tickets are in the center. (usually in other stadia, the 'arena' seats are the center seats). So if you go to the reseller shops, look on the tickets, and look for アリーナ (Arena) or センター (center). It's usually written above the block number. Remember, this is only for Yokohama arena. (but since we're only going to yokohama arena, it doesn't matter )

About getting there 5 hours before, well, on Sunday, after the imperial palace visit, we have lots of time left, so if we were unable to buy anything on the 9th, we can try on the 10th, and go very early. But we'll see it on the day itself, how much time we spend on every activity (while doing sightseeing in yokohama). It usually goes quicker than planned.

[maneayu]

I'm nervious :S (My flight starts in 9 hours).

[Joeyoh]

Alright!

I will be attending the concert May 10th

I will totally meet up with you guys. It's my first time in Japan so I AM SOOO HAPPY other people will be there. W00t.

Soo..COUNT ME IN!!!

Oh yeah I am staying at Keio Plaza in Shinjuku

[Hatix]

Wonderful! Yet another fan going!
Will you have internet access in your hotel? The 10th is the day of imperial palace visit, so we can meet with you after that. Or if you wish to visit that too, register yourself on their site (see link in top post).
And btw, from which country are you? (because our group is getting quite international )

[Joeyoh]

It's international like the House of Pancakes (american joke )

I am from California United States! Although my nationality is Mexican-American

How awsome is this!?!

Imperial Palace eh?? Sounds QUITE interesting, where is your hotel located?

[Hatix]

My hotels (Oak Hotel) is located in Ueno.

Okay, so that's the second one from the US, after eddi818 (who is from Texas I believe)

It's of course up to you if you want to go visit the imperial palace, you can always meet up afterwards. And you are of course free to join us on the 9th as well, even if you're not going to the concert on the 9th . (depending on your schedule )

[Joeyoh]

I am up for a meet after the concert. We really don't have a set schedule. The only thing we really wanted to do was go to Club Code (eurobeat club) in Shinjuku. Aside from that I will be glad to join you guys the 10th.

Where will you guys be sitting in the concert?

You found a eurobeat club?? I wanted to go to Velfarre, but it closed down at new year, and I was looking for another one on the web, but I couldn't find any.

Well, me & Maneayu have tickets for the 9th in B3 block in the center. We still need tickets for the 10th, but for those we'll get some cheap ones on the side.


We are really going to need that sign that says: [AHS]

NO WAY!!!!!!!

Me too!!!!! Too bad it's not the same day ;( We have b3 center as well. Seat number 191 and 192

[Hatix]

That's settled then!
I was practicing the parapara from Hinoi Team - Night on fire anyway (as well as the one form Suzumiya Haruhi's ED song)

I have B3, seat 259 & 260

[Joeyoh]

No way!! lol

I <3 Para!

[Blasterion]

Hi guys, sorry it took me so long to put something up in here,
but yeah, so I'll be there on the 9th, I've got a pair of C3 center seats for the 9th and I'll try to score some tickets for the 10th too, just a pair of arena seats will be fine.
I'll be staying at the Andon Ryokan too, during the entire trip, with my sister.
yep, less than 2 days to go! I'll be arriving on the 4th.

so who will be making the AHS sign?

Super, you will be staying in Andon too! Me and my buddy are staying there for 6.5 - 12.5 if I remember correctly..

And thx Hatix for clearing that out, we'd like to have some B-center seats, but I wonder if any shops have those kind of seats. How many blocks or something are there, like B1, B2 etc...

PS. Hatix we'll be staying in Shinjuku Washington Hotel too, so if you could edit the first post :b

[Hatix]

Great! So Blasterion is now also confirmed!
I'll try to make that AHS sign, just need to find some kind of cardboard.
I'll put a big "AHS" on it with under it in smaller lettering: Ayumi Hamasaki Sekai (and maybe in kanji as well ). (don't have a printer any more at home, otherwise I could have put a picture of ayu on it, but like this it looks more like something for at an airport). But everyone is free to make something too
(if i'm done with, I'll put a picture up, so you know what to look for )

@ayu1m
the layout for the center blocks are:
A1 & 3 (no A2 i guess because of the stage "catwalk")
B1-3
C1-3
D1-3


Edit:
Detta

[tango]

I'll be attending 5/10 (from US), but probably wont be joining your activities. But I will look for your sign. Thanks to Hatix for all the info that you've given

Have folks been practicing all the sign-alongs? I've been trying to find the lyrics to Boys & Girls. Need to do some last minute cramming.

Also, the Yokohama Arena is in Shin-Yokohama right? So it will take one more stop from Yokohama to get there?
