Help me get 2008 TOUR TICKETS!?

[Zeke.]

I am planning on going to see Ayu at her last tour date of June 18, 2008 and I need someone who can help me get concert tickets. I am willing to spend up to $1,200 which is about ¥130,374. I really want CLOSE SEATS. Please help me.

[Empry]

Are they even on sale right now? Somehow I doubt it. I think you might get such tickets via YJA. And then you'll also need middlesman service like shoppingmalljapan.com

And does anyone know how to get tickets for Hong Kong? (Yes, I know that there aren't any overeases dates annouced yet but I'm pretty sure that she will come to HK again).

[truehappiness]

Hm..

I think your best bet is to find a TA member. They have first pick of tickets, I believe.

[dayumi]

Where can we but the ticket??

You cold look in immel's tutorial, if you haven't already done so

^follow the tutorial, ur best option is Yahoo Japan auctions with a middleman...

[Zeke.]

Will that guarantee that I get GREAT seats? If I'm going to see Ayu I'm gonna go all out. I don't want to settle for just any seat. Thanks for the help tho.

Although it's already been mentioned, there's a thorough guide in my thread about in which ways foreigners and non-TA members can get ahold of Ayu concert tickets. It should give you answers to every single question that you might have about it and if you have any further questions please ask them in that thread .

130k yen should give you section A front row tickets, but I'd recommend the B section ones close to the central stage where she runs now and then. That's as close as you can possibly get to her.

And the tickets wont be released until in March I believe, it's usually a month before the concert is held. That means in March you'll probably see tickets for the April performances up for sale on various auction pages.

If you wanna go in June you'll have to wait 4 or 5 months before the tickets are even released.

I wonder how high the anniversary concert tickets will go for..

Sets of CDL07-08 ones went pretty high, so I can't imagine the REAL tour's ticket prices on auction..

[immel]

^Do you have any price examples for the CDL07-08 tickets? If her ticket prices are changing it would be good if I could update the tutorial thread accordingly .

$1200!? Is ayu's concert tickets always this expensive, or just for the front row?

@immel : How much is the B-section ticket price would be?

@truehappiness : was the CDL07-08 concert ticket price went rocket? how much was the highest price?

There's already price examples for that in the tutorial thread, but I can say only the front row A block or K block tickets have any possibility of going for above 100,000 yen.

The ones I saw was sold for 150,000 in pairs, that means 75,000 each. I must say I think it might be more or less impossible to find single A block tickets, since people always book seats beside each other if they intend to sell them because they're much easier to sell.

@immel : How much is the B-section ticket price would be?

50,000-60,000 yen by the estimations I have, I don't know if the prices changed a lot but I doubt.

Oh, and I just figured out something that should be added to the tutorial thread, there should be a picture of a ticket with a guide of how to understand it where to see the section and seat number etc. I remember it took me a long time before I got to know how to understand it correctly.

Anyone got a good picture for me that I could use?

[4ever*ayu]

Above 100k!^o^
i can't afford those section then, more realistic for me to hunt the B-section tickets.

[HilaryDuffFanboy]

CDL prices, some of them were crazy. Tour tickets may be cheaper as there are MORE dates, CDL only has 2, harder to get!

Best way I reckon is to go to Tokyo and buy from ticket reseller. It's cheaper this way, but I guess if you're gonna spend that much, it doesn't matter...

[4ever*ayu]

@immel: I got the image of a used HK concert ticket from the last Asia Tour, i got it from a Singaporean girl's blog, pretty nice looking girl, here..

[immel]

^Thanks, but I'd need a Japanese one since that's where most people go and they usually have a quite distinctive look to them so it's easy to explain it and then you'll be able to decipher every Ayumi concert ticket as long as it's in Japan . If I get around to it I might scan one of my old tickets.

Thanks for the advice but is the show better in the front row or at the end of the catwalk?

Read the thread again .

All tickets are usually 7500-8000 yen when you buy them at their official release.

It depends on your preferences.

Front row A seats in the middle will get you close to Ayu and her dancers during the majority of the show.

Front row B seats in the middle (near central stage) will give you a great overview of the entire light show, the dancers and Ayu which is how I think her concerts should be experienced. Her light shows are usually something extraordinary.

When I went I had one front row B ticket and the other one I bought was D section far back so I got to experience it from different angles.

So I don't have to worry about getting tickets for another 4 or 5 months? I just don't want to miss the bus on this because I am going all out. Also, is June 18th her final tour date and is that the one that is going to be filmed for the DVD?
