I have a feeling that the tour will be cheap this year with all this happening in Japan.

I don't share the same opinion, but I guess we'll see.

I wish plane tickets were cheaper but they seem to have gone up... :rolleyes

There may be a possibility that they might do one concert per weekend rather than two and/or cancel some concerts due to the energy crisis?

But I feel bad for the people who had already flew or are flying to attend the Saitama show. I know one person is already there now.

So is there any OFFICIAL word on cancellations of the Saitama shows?

On the 28th, yeah.

So far though Ayu has said specifically: WE ARE NOT USING SAITAMA.

So the actual start of the tour could be delayed because Saitama is going to be cancelled/moved? And is it sure that Sendai will also be cancelled due to the extent of the damage?

Again i will type it, but the arena in sendai, and most of kantou region, are being used to house survivors and victims. She cannot use either saitama or sendai arena for the purpose of concert.

She has confirmed once again on Twitter that they won't be using the Saitama Super Arena. And as much as I feel bed for the people who planned to attend the concert, the people are taking refuge there are the ones who don't have anywhere else to go :)

according to the official site http://avexnet.or.jp/ayu/jp/news/110325.html they'll either do refunds or exchange tickets for the new dates once they are set?

Okay, so what ends up is that Saitama's cancelled and it will start later. Why are they not using Saitama? What are the reasons?

There are victims of the earthquake/tsunami who are taking refuge inside the arena.

... Are you freaking blind? A person has been answering this question for the past page.

I couldnt even imagine sleeping in an arena for X amount of days or even weeks. X.X I feel for these people... :*(

Sorry, have not been tracking properly. But apparently Saitama is still housing refugees (victims) from the earthquake, and so this means that a concert would not be possible...

I have a solution: Tokyo Dome!

(and like this we'll finally get another Dome Concert, haha)

Uhh...Tokyo Dome? Nah...

^ I would love another dome concert.. I jsut watched that concert and it was.. WOW :thud

avex will make official announcement during 1-2 hours

Dome Tour 2011. Nuff said. It would be done during summer/autumn then, and she could still promote Love songs pretty much.

Or maybe another Stadium Tour which would be done during summer if she can't use arenas. :D
