Max capacity is 12,500 but since the concert's going to be only 1 sided, I think around 7,000?

7000? it's really out of ayu's concert standard
you now, every year ayu arena tour and the CDL are so much more than that!! (>10000)
but i think maybe it's a special tour, it's the first time ayu held a concert out of japan.
hik...hik... i'm so jealous with you guys in hk, taiwan, shanghai, and of course japan.

^Well depends on the venue. Some Japanese venues are less than 10,000 lsuch as Nagano or Niigata...(I think)

It is quite front in the 7th line near the stage^^~ I wish i can shake hands with ayu and receive gifts (like BALLS) from her^^

did your friend buy the tickets in the counter sales?

[ayuflareup!]

YES^^~but ultimately, I contacted one of my friend yesterday, he told me that he had bought total 4 tickets, 2 for him and his sister and the other 2 were for his other friends. However, his friends didn't contact him at all to collect the tickets. As a result, he sold me the tickets (HK$480) and it is in the 32th row (... I think it is quite far back from the stage).... Nevermind, at least I got the ticket without queuing^^~~~ and my dream didn't vanish at all^^~

PS: If you guys realli wanna go, try to visit some forums, there are many people who bought extra tickets. But you have to be prepared that they will sell you the ticket much higher than the original price.
Also, try it out in YAHOO AUCTIONS. I saw there is one ticket which was originally sold at HK$780, but now it cost $1190!!!!! The fans are FANATIC about AYU@!!!~

Too bad my chinese is crummy, I can't translate it fully.

Basically it talks about Ayu going to other countries in Asia. The 780 yuan seats were sold in 5 minutes, while the other seats sold out within 3 hours. It also states that due to Ayu's busy staff schedule and other circumstances, she was unable to accommodate more locations and dates which resulted in disappointed fans.

I also saw a tiny article in my local chinese newspaper (mingpao) today and it says the same thing but besides that, it says the tickets selling out proves the hk fans are very loyal....and there will not be any addition concert dates and if there will be, there could be a part II.

(well that part II thing is what the newspaper is thinking...they probably made it up or something..I wouldnt take it seriously but it would be nice if it happens )
