The only ticket reseller in Tokyo is Yokohama Ticket, they have stores in Shinjuku, Shibuya and Ueno.
The store on Takeshita dori has not sold Ayu tickets for a while now.

Mimika.. I may be interested...

Do you plan to go to Saitama, from Tokyo?

Really? I usually see that they have at least a few. But yes, their main focus is idol groups.

Saitama (and Yokohama) are both basically part of the greater Tokyo area. They are not that far. So, most people actually consider those concert dates as Tokyo concert dates. (venue wise they are much better than Yoyogi too)

::bows down to the all knowing!!:: You know so much!
So you think the area is better or the shows?

Arenas. Saitama Arena is really massive. Yokohama is a lovely space to enter too. It feels more round than long like Yoyogi. Actually, I enjoy all of those arenas, but Saitama fills most people so it gives more of an huge concert impression if you enjoy that.

I'll go to Saitama 7th of April too!

I'd be all alone because my boyfriend doesn't want to come with me! (he has bad taste

)
I hope I can meet you, it's more fun when you can share that kind of experience ! :3

mimika · #31 2nd February 2012, 01:40 AM

Linza-mo · #32 2nd February 2012, 02:36 PM

Have you find a solution for your concert ticket ? '___'

AngieChan · #33 3rd February 2012, 09:57 PM

So Mimika and Linza-mo - you guys are definitely going to April 7/8 Saitama Concert!

Where r u guys from? I am from Brisbane, Australia

Linza-mo · #34 4th February 2012, 11:27 AM

Yes definitely ! =)

I come from south of the France (A town called Toulouse,sometimes well-known because "Airbus" aircraft come from here)

I hope you will can going to Saitama too AngieChan!!

Evolution7/4 · #35 5th February 2012, 11:46 PM

Im going to try my luck at the resellers to go to both Saitama shows!

mimika · #36 7th February 2012, 03:16 PM

Linza-mo and AngieChan : yes I am going for sure! I am coming from Canada.... now I have to do some research on tickets....

so the options are: reseller or yahoo auction? I wonder if rakuten has them as well since I think rakuten ships overseas??

polka-dot-jewel · #37 8th February 2012, 05:30 AM

I'm going to book my plane ticket to Tokyo once I get my tax return!! lol. I plan on going to both Saitama shows as well! (I may go to the Osaka shows a week later as well, but I'm not sure yet.) I've never seen Ayu at Saitama! Only at Yoyogi three times... I'm so very excited!! Especially since I haven't seen her live since 2009.

As far as where to buy tickets from - if you want a guaranteed ticket and don't know anyone in Japan that can pick you up a ticket from a reseller shop, then get one from YAJ. Prices can be a bit more expensive. When I saw Ayu in 2008, I bought my ticket on YAJ, but when I saw her in 2009, I bought tickets for both shows from a reseller shop.

mimika · #38 9th February 2012, 04:01 PM

I just checked yahoo auction japan and is not seeing any ayu tickets

Well, they haven't gone on sale yet, and the fanclub members haven't received their tickets...have the TA lottery results even been announced?

Apparently the lottery results have been announced...I found plenty of tickets just by searching for the first date.

chocopockymaster · #40 9th February 2012, 05:22 PM

I should also add that even though people who bought their tickets through TA can technically sell them, they won't even know what seats they are until they receive the tickets, which could be as late as a week before the show. To be able to CHOOSE your seats, you might be better off waiting until the tickets have gone on sale, because then the auction will list details of where the tickets are...what block, give you a general idea of what the seat number is, etc. Tickets for the first two Saitama shows are going on sale March 11th, so you're probably better off waiting until those pop up on Y!J.
