I got tickets for the 9th in Yokohama. They are 2 center tickets, block B3. (I have a second person to go with, but that's about 98% certain). I got them for 22500yen per ticket, it's probably too much, but I got my tickets

(now i'm gonna wait for some cheap tickets for the 10th, they don't have to be the best seats).
I bought them with Akibado, even though I didn't recommend them because they are slow, but I figured they were slow in the past for me because it was a big package last time. As these are just small pieces of paper, it should be faster.
They just arrived at Akibado, so now I'm waiting to see how quick they send it.

I'm also starting to look for my hotels (I've already got flight tickets).

About when to arrive. Well, I'll probably make it a day to visit Yokohama as well, and then maybe want to arrive there about 2-3 hours before the concert :p

2 or 3 hours before, it is quite short. After the flight you may need rest. If you don't have full energy, you won't be able to enjoy 100% the concert !

I'm already in Japan on the 4th, so I guess 5 days is enough to rest

I meant, to be at the arena 2-3 hours before the concert starts

I arrive to Tokyo on the 4th too, and me and my buddy are also trying to get tickets for the Yokohama one through reseller shops.

Blasterion · #**225** 20th February 2007, 01:42 PM

I'm also arriving on the 4th, what a coincidence

I still have to get tickets too, I'll try to get em through the auction pages, we'll see how that'll work out

immel · #**226** 20th February 2007, 01:59 PM

@Hatix - I think the price you got the tickets for is quite good, not too expensive but also not very cheap. I hope for you that the seats in the block will be really close to the center stage

.

oro77 · #**227** 20th February 2007, 03:38 PM

I think it is a bit expensive.... or maybe I won't get better places, I wanted to spend 20 000 yens max for B places in Saitama. Am I dreaming ?

I think it depends on the auction, and the time and the right people that don't bid on the tickets you want

It's a bit of luck, everyone wants cheaper tickets, but I didn't mind, and i would have gone until 25000 for B block. But I don't think I would pay 50.000 for A block either.

So we now have 3 people going to Yokohama:
Hatix (with possibly 98% chance of another forum member for the concert): (arriving on the 4th)
Blasterion: alone? (arriving on the 4th)
ayu1m: with a buddy (arriving on the 4th)

So that's 4-5 people already. Are there more?

(the more the better of course!)

...what do you think the chances are of being able to find tickets in reseller shops for the final show on 6.10 in Fukuoka? Does anyone know any good resale shops there?

You could always go to the ones I have mapped in central Tokyo in case you are unable to find any near where you're staying.

I have no clue about the possibilities for Fukuoka :/.

chocopockymaster · #**231** 20th February 2007, 06:40 PM

Would the Tokyo shops be selling tickets for the Fukuoka shows...?

immel · #**232** 20th February 2007, 06:48 PM

If you are lucky, because it is the final performances, but I'm not sure. I guess you guys going there will be the experiment in order to confirm

.

They usually sell for the Saitama ones, but that's way closer than Fukuoka.

JinHamasaki · #**233** 20th February 2007, 07:22 PM

This is exciting, I can't wait

So who is going to Saitama 3/11?

I don't have tickets yet but I plan to go to both Saitama concerts.
If I can, I will go to Fukuoka's too !　

eddi818 · #**235** 23rd February 2007, 07:29 PM

i want to go to the yokohama 9th concert (actually I'm pretty sure I def will go, since I'm staying at Tokyo one extra day just to see her)...but I don't have the ticket yet. Yal'l think I would have a pretty good chance at the reseller?..or someone has an extra ticket that I can buy from? =)

*raises hand*

eddi818 · #**237** 24th February 2007, 11:22 AM

I'm going to the yokohama show...but don't have ticket yet. I am probably going to get it from the resellers while I'm there (think that's a good idea?) or if anyone happen to have one extra ticket...contact me..please

If you are alone, then I don't think it will be a problem to find a ticket in the reseller shops. I can't speak from experience, but from reading immel's tutorial, it shouldn't be a problem.
(as said) I'm arriving the 4th, so we could meet up, and help you. And there will be others who'll need some tickets from the reseller shops also, so we can go to them together. (I think those people at the reseller shops would find it very weird to see such a big group of gaijin buying so many ayu tickets

)

oro77 · #**239** 25th February 2007, 03:45 AM

I took a look to the reseller shops, I think it is quite expensive and the seats are not that great. But I will do the same if I don't find on yahoo auctions.

eddi818 · #**240** 25th February 2007, 03:47 AM

hahah..its ok..I'm asian..so they probably will automatically speak to ME in japanese..then ill look all confused. Well..I'm going to Tokyo on the 28th of april..going to Kyoto on the 3rd back on the 7th. Where are yal'l staying at?
