I really really want to go to Arashi Summer Concert 2007 (if it exists). My biggest fear is that it doesn't exist.
I mean, they're busy travelling all around the globe (Asia globe) and having solo project and dramas and tv shows, and I'll end up killing myself if they don't have any summer concert.
I'll be in Japan for only one year. one short year, no, it's only ten months now. And even if they have concert, I know nothing about how to get the concert tickets. Everyone in Japan that I know, none of them interested in Johnny's. One of my friend's dormitory friend, when he knew I want to go to Nagoya's Johnny's shop, he said "やめた方がいい”= "better not do it".
I heard the competition for the ticket is unbelieveably tight.
Anyway, something cross my mind just now.
Going to concert and buying all dvds and cds and photobooks and magazines and traveling to concerts or butai and everything in between don't come cheap.
To make it worse, not only am I poor, I have an unlimited desire to shop and still have to do treatment for my face.
The most reasonable solution is to have part time job.
To have part time job, I have to speak Japanese more fluently.
To speak fluently I have to study like hell.
I cannot study like that unless I have more space in my room.
Ok, I've found a motivation. I'll come home and clean my room. (so phlegmatic...)
I want to translate some of Arashi's thing too, wonder what is best? everything seems to had already been translated...
poor dearie *patpat*
why not go to their homecoming triumphant concert instead? but they are going to do about 9 shows in Yokohama & Osaka...
about finding the tickets... try asking around the arashi japanese comunities since you can converse/write in japanese quite well right? oh another thing you can aply for a johnny's fan membership using your japanese friends address! that way you can get tickets & discounts, news easily but with the help of your friend.
good luck
btw... (& don't tell anyone yet about this coz its not confirmed) i heard Nino going to do a solo con soon. got this news from arashi vox since i friended her. mostly her news/rumors are on the spot.
letters from iwo jima premiered at Tokyo yesterday. do look out for any news on that coz i heard Nino might get an Oscar for his role. I'm a proud mama right now ^____^.
ne~ can you post any reviews or news on Letters From Iwo Jima if you found any? would love to know more about it...
take care ^^v
