I agree!!! Because if i enter the second one ! Then i miss out on paying on the first two :/ so it makes it hard to know if its worth the trip oveeerrr :,( if i had more money it wouldnt be such an issue to see ayu! Lol

Also just wondering if anyone knows if you apply for all 3 dates, does it make your chances slimmer to get the 31st one? Because your appling for more than one? If that makes sense

Not really. Those are all separate events.

[Ryusei]

just wondering but why the heck are some of you even applying if you know that you won't be able to afford to go there and actually attend the concert? That just leads to people that CAN go not being able to get a ticket

[Next_Level29]

but still, im more excited on her cdl then on her arena tour ..

[Earth_maiden]

I prefer CDL's because there's less costumes/costume changes and the setlists are usually a little more promotional and obscure. But I've not seen an arena tour in person so maybe I'll change my mind lol.

[tokyoxjapanxfan]

It is frustrating when they do multiple lotteries instead of just fulfilling all the requests the first time around. -especially fanclub members. With so little benefits that fanclub members have now, just maybe they could be nice once in a while lol.

I do have a theory that fanclub members are given crappy seats on purpose though, as the chance of them going to the concert regardless is higher lol.

Strangely enough though, both my roommate and the person he's going with applied for two tickets each for the 31st and both of them won o_o. As opposed to other years when we needed to apply 2 or 3 times each before getting them.

[attractive nausea]

^ Oh well but i'd say that fanclub member also "deserve" more than regular fans to get good seats because they're the one supporting Ayu more lol

Just the beginning is referring to the start of the 20th anniversary celebrations. But it's like a year early.

[Evan Odinson]

I think the "Just the Beginning" is for those people that are always saying "oh her career is over, she's not popular anymore, bla bla" and she's like: "Who's over bitches, this is just the beginning" a Hall Tour would be great but I think if she took a break for a year would be better, for her voice and her sales, people know she releases something every single year, a year without anything new would be something new for people, so when she comes back people would be hyped

I like your interpretation of "Just the beginning", haha!

I guess it would be enough if she releases the live DVD/Blu-ray and then she takes a break for a year. I mean if she feels that she has to release something then just throw out a single and the album can come in the following year. I think the last time she didn't release a full studio/mini/compilation album was 1998 and 2005, right? Who knows how (m)u would have sold if she released it 2005?

Also I know I am late but let me just say how AWESOME Secret is!!! <3 The album is just perfect!!! JEWEL, Startin', Born To Be... all those great songs!!! The only one I don't like that much is momentum... Yea I know the most love and praise it but for me it's just an ok-track. Still Secret is damn amazing!!!

Bitches be like: "Your career is over! You are not popular anymore."

Ayu: "Hi bitch, my career is just the beginning."

wow, must be getting desperate if they're having to advertise it for once.
the poster looks nice - just watch her sing WARNING again.

The fact that they have 31 show as an option in the second round of TA lottery might also indicate that. Allowing to take photos is also a good promotion stunt.

That billboard is awesome.
I love how clean it is. I don't remember seeing Countdown Live promo like this before.

[truehappiness]

I recall seeing billboards once or twice before for CDL. I guess goods will be pink/magenta and black?
