[OFFICIAL] ayumi hamasaki ASIA TOUR 2007 A ～Tour of Secret～ + A BEST 2 - Page 5

Well, another possible way to explain why Avex does not step into Singapore is that if Ayu is to host a concert here, the whole team would have to redesign just another kind of concert to fit the size of Singapore's performing stages (wherever that may be, but we all know all the stages in SG are small).

And of course, there is no need for Avex to step into here. The influence from Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Shahghai will blow over to Singapore.

But I really feel so sad now.....

^ bro dont feel sad now!! lets all fly to HK or taiwan to watch ayu together!! that would be such a memorable experience

extepan · #83 2nd January 2007, 03:59 PM

thanks for the news!

and OMG the date in HONG KONG is confirmed on the official site!

evolution7931 · #84 2nd January 2007, 07:01 PM

Hey, is it cheaper to fly to Hong Kong, Taipei, Shanghai, or Japan? From North America..

ayu_fan929 · #85 2nd January 2007, 07:56 PM

I would probably say maybe Shanghai or Taipei overall, if you include hotel/food costs. But HK and Tokyo are probably the easiest to get to.

NorthStar · #86 2nd January 2007, 09:08 PM

Will somebody confirm for me what dates,as of now,she will be in Tokyo? I've read a lot of conflicting dates......

ayu_fan929 · #87 2nd January 2007, 10:48 PM

^The closest to Tokyo itself:

3/10-11: Saitama Super Arena
5/9-10: Yokohama Arena

I think they're both ~1 hour out of Central Tokyo?

It really depends on when you purchase your tickets and when you plan to be flying. If I'm right, April is off season so flying to HK roundtrip should be around $1000 or maybe less than that. I fly to HK every summer and I purchase my tickets MONTHS in advance so it's cheaper. Hope that helps! ^-^

I'm really surprised too by the fact that it's not really an ASIA Tour... Heck, it's just China and Taiwan. Even though I won't be in Asia around that time, I was hoping to at least SEE Ayu in more countries. >___< Oh well!~

I am really sad Ayu never include Singapore, even rain include Singapore. I hope Singapore will be add in the Asia tour soon but i know the percentage is very low.

If Ayu not coming to Singapore then i will go to HK... Does you all know how to buy tickets?

Amuro_Ray · #90 3rd January 2007, 07:15 AM

Although current official announcement is just HK, Taiwan & Shanghai, maybe Avex will announce more places later?
Even though it is just 3 countries, it is much better than holding in Japan only, right?

Joeyoh · #91 3rd January 2007, 07:59 AM

I am REALLY hoping she is adding some shows for April in Japan ;_; hopefully Chiba!

Oh well, at least it's confirmed. Thanks for this.

Why she didn't come to SG?

tinyppl · #93 3rd January 2007, 05:05 PM

Yep it's quite sad that Singapore isn't included. I didn't have too high hopes either since Singapore's market is really small. It's not very often that I find hardcore jpop listeners around either. Ahhh but honestly, I still wished she would include Singapore. Sigh sigh.

loveloveayuayu · #94 3rd January 2007, 05:51 PM

does any hk fans know where to get tickets!?!? please help!!><~

1AeGiS1 · #95 9th January 2007, 01:23 PM

in sg newpaper today.. sg highly likely not part of the asian tour.. apparently 3 concert organisers like Unusual Productions, Hype Records and VizPro are not planning to bring ayu in..

it was deemed that her show is too expensive to bring in and a insider whu declined to be named cited a lack of sponsors, adding that Ayu's largely TEENAGE fan base would not pay exorbitant sums like $888 (a benchmark set by Rain) jus to see her perform..

haiz.. sad.. what to do.. but den the last paragraph wrote that "if you're a real Ayumi fan and must see her live, it would be cheaper to fly to Hong Kong, Taiwan or Shanghai, where you can catch her concert and enjoy a short vacation at the same time"

den again.. anyone knows how to get the tix? be it the shows in pretty pony~pretty pony~pretty pony~ or in taiwan.. ??

ayuflareup! · #96 9th January 2007, 02:08 PM

Some fans said that the price for the ticket in HK will be at lowest $3XX, highest, $2XXX. I wonder if this is true. Because RAIN's concert costs more than that as well, so I think Ayu's ticket will be quite pricy in HK as well

Put it in simple words: The quality of Ayu's concert must not be compromised.

By hosting a concert in SG, the quality will go down....

Too bad our National Stadium is CLOSED.

If not, they can host it there!!! WOW!! That wld be like Stadium Tour 2002!!!

extepan · #98 9th January 2007, 04:11 PM

i am excited that she is coming to hong kong! i hope the tickets will not be too expensive!

kyomiayu · #99 9th January 2007, 04:39 PM

Any1 planning to go Hong Kong? I am from Singapore. I need to find a way to get the concert tics....

andre2907 · #**100** 9th January 2007, 05:09 PM

Let's face it, the reason why Ayu is doing an Asia tour in the first place is because China is the "in" market right now and everybody wants to have it as one of their markets. Taiwan was inclueded because she is very popular in there and it's a important market for Jpop and most importantly, AVEX has a branch in Taiwan.

They won't hold a concert in SG because it's a small market, there's no AVEX in Singapore and her concert is too big and expensive. They won't hold a concert in Malaysia or Thailand for the same reasons (and they're probably even smaller markets to jpop than SG). No concerts in Korea because she is not popular in there.

I tought it was kind of obvious from the beginning an Asia tour was going to be China, Hong-Kong and Taiwan ONLY.
