If I happen to get 4 tickets from the fan club lottery and one or more friends say they can't go, can I resell the tickets or what? (I guess once the ticketbo thing is settled you couldn't resell since it's linked to your account, right? Haha)

Ok, so there is a bit of a loophole you can use if you want to resell them. When you win tickets for yourself and a friend, ticketbo asks for the friend's email so it can send the eticket to them. If you DIDN'T already send that eticket to the friend, then you can just enter the email address of the person you're selling the ticket to. This will only work if that ticket WASN'T already sent/downloaded by someone else (ex. a friend that said they would go but then after receiving the ticket decides they can't go)

That's important because one time after I downloaded my ticket, I experienced phone trouble, so I emailed myself my already downloaded ticket because I was scared I would loose all my phone's data. This doesn't work, because a block is put on it. At the venue the scanner didn't accept the ticket and I had to go to the help window and explain what happened. It was kind of stressful so I don't want that to happen to someone else, lol.

And to answer your second question- yes, you can apply for multiple tickets at different cities. The limit of the number of tickets is just for each individual date. (Unless they decide to change it for this tour, but that's generally the case )

This is the highest first day sales for a solo artist this year. The record was previously held by (Southern All Stars vocalist) Kuwata Keisuke's "Garakuta" which sold 277,000 copies back in August.

"Finally" is on track to be Amuro's best selling album in a decade. "Best Fiction" was released on July 30, 2008 and sold 681,187 copies in its first week.

I started hating this album and now I'm lovng and rooting for it lol The re-work they did for the songs on Disc1 is really good! But the Disc 2 is just terrible and lacks energy (as a lot of people already said before).

I'm crazy about the sales! It's like we're back to 2001 with a solo female singer selling 500k on the first day! lol Loving it

[Surreal17]

I haven't listened to the whole album yet, but from what I heard I love Dr. . I already loved the original, so I'm glad that we have a new awesome version. As for the other songs, I didn't like TSUKI that much, probably its her way of singing. CAN'T SLEEP, CAN't EAT, I'M SICK is somewhat fun but the way she sings in the chorus turns me off a bit. Break It and Fight Together are also nice.

Favorite [Finally] Cover?

Namie girl, if the lottery starts Monday, share the freaking tour dates already!

@KarenPang thank you for your reply, my dear
Can I ballot for 2/4 tickets in each city? Haha or do we have 2/4 chances of getting tickets in all ballots? (if I didn't make myself clear: let's say we have only 2 tickets per person. can I ballot 2 tickets for Nagoya, 2 for Tokyo, 2 for Osaka etc, or only 1 for Nagoya, one for Tokyo, or 2 for one city etc?)

For this I don't know , you have to check as each artiste's fanclub ticket balloting system has different terms and conditions

End of the day it really depends on your luck , be it if you're in Namie's fanclub or not

Some artistes' fanclub limit to how many concert dates can be balloted per fanclub member , I'm not sure for Namie's

Reason why fans join a fanclub is to have better luck in trying to get tickets via balloting but it doesn't mean your balloting will be successful

But assuming if Namie will be performing at all the 5 Domes again , I think chances of getting tickets to see her perform at Sapporo and/or Fukuoka Domes will be a bit better because you have to take a domestic flight to both prefectures if you plan to base yourself in Tokyo

The other 3 Domes will be extremely difficult , let alone Tokyo Dome cos everyone all wants to go Tokyo lol

However with this being Namie's last tour , I really don't know how things will go

[freedreamer]

Just wanna thank haraiso for being so awesome and explaining everything to us!!!

Aw man it's way nicer & more festive unlike the version made available in the Finally DVD/Blu-ray D:

[Darkifrit]

Glad of the success of Finally. Long time since i had an as big Hype for an album.
I hope she will at least reach what she did for BEST FICTION.

[thinkingoutloud89]

^probably...I still think these sales don't include all preorders and fanspace versions yet.
I think the international forums were a big indicator on what the album will probably sale...It's been a long time since I saw so many people buy the same album.

I think it won't be that hard for her to beat BF too
I agree with you. Even myself, i pretty much listen to Namie only since the retirement news. I even start to enjoy her most recent songs, i was not a fan of them before the Best of announcement. She definitely knows how to create a hype

[Maemi]

I really enjoy the song Finally. It's really a nice ballad.
