Who's going for Countdown Live '14-'15 ?

[Chris85]

I won tickets for both 29 and 30 shows, BUT my friend who balloted for 2 tickets for us for 31, won only one! So we can't share this concert together and I'll have to ballot in second round. Congrats to everyone who won!!!

[YuraiNamida]

So there will be another round? I wanted to go on 31st as first choice but you need to pay the tickets you won before November 11st so,in other words, this week. Uhmm... If I won ticket for 31st on the second round I can just resell the tickets that I won't use I suppose...

I only got the 29th and 30th. Which is great cuz i don't plan to attend the 31st!! But i'll try t for the 2nd round

[Earth_maiden]

Geez, you guys are lucky! I didn't win ANY tickets, I'm so sad. Oh well, guess I'll just have to try for round two.

Excuse me while I go have a sob.

Usually you have to apply again

[Earth_maiden]

If anyone gets tickets for the 29th that they won't be using, can you let me know please?

Me too I'll go with you haha
I have a feeling this is going to be an epic concert, I am trying to convince my parents to let me go but they're so narrow minded...

You can't go cause your boyfriend is working? What kind of shit is that? Lol.

[Pieces_of_SEVEN]

I mean...I CAN go, Zeke...but I don't want to go by myself! Tried to get my best friend to go with me but it is an expensive trip. And I don't know if my boyfriend could go a week without me...LOL

You shouldn't let the fact that others are unable to experience things with you stop you from experiencing them yourself. Whether or not you have someone there, it is YOUR experience. Of course, it's nice to have others to share in the moment with, but when it comes down to it and it's either experience it yourself or hold yourself back and NOT experience it, why not go for the experience? Pretty much all my goals I've accomplished in life I've had to do alone because it was my passion, not my friends. I have never regretted any of those decisions, regardless of how often I've had to do them alone.

Going somewhere far away by yourself really is… liberating I think. You won't be bound by anyone and can do whatever you want. But going to a concert by yourself? I wouldn't do that.

If I get 2 tickets for the 31st on the second lottery (I don't know when is going to happen though, I don't seem to find any information on other lottery...) I will have 2 ticket for the 29th that I will not use so I can sell it to you (one or both I suppose, but If you just need one and someone ask for both the priority will go to whoever is going to buy both, sorry XD ).

[Earth_maiden]

^I would definitely want both, me and a friend are going together so one ticket is no good to me.

@Delicious_n_Bold: I went to the 31st concert by myself in 2012. No big deal, it's not as fun as going with someone else but it was the only way I could see the concert that day, so I went for it. Yes, it is liberating and empowering.

I've gone to many alone. I saw ayu alone and I've gone to see DJs play at clubs alone. Of course it would be nice to have more people in my life that are passionate about the types of things I am passionate about, but I don't let the reality of the situation stop me from experiencing the things I love the most. Other people can enhance the experience, but first and foremost it's about the music, getting lost in it and the feeling of becoming one with it.

The second round is usually one week after the results announcement of the first round, so...pretty soon!

[pimenta]

I went to many concerts alone this year (because my friends here are not interested in the same artists as me) and, seriously, it's no big deal. Sure it's nicer if I'm with a friend, but once the concert starts I just ignore everything around me and just concentrate on the concert, so it really doesn't matter if I'm by myself...

I would never give up the opportunity of going to a concert and seeing my favorite artists live just because there's no one to go with me. Specially since I'm living in Japan only for this year and I don't know if I'll ever have the chance later.

But, yeah, I live in Tokyo, going to the concert means just going from my home to the venue and then back home, so I can understand if someone who lives in a different country doesn't want to travel alone, that's a bit more difficult (though I did do that as well a few times and it wasn't really that bad).

Round 2 is open!
