Just found this on Wikipedia.
Erm, guys. Seriously, what are the chances of the pillows' show being sold out like in minutes, if not in a few hours?

[quote]If everyone can get one person to get a ticket for them[/quote]
Is it not possible that it is the same person for 'everyone'?

I do not have a Japanese contact (yet)....
clock is ticking...
someone can help me out?

The pillows are my favorite band, but I don't think it'll sell out that quickly.

the pillows are not playing at the Dome. They're playing at Dome City HALL. Important distinction there. Dome City Hall is where they did the finale for the Ooparts tour. It's a much smaller venue. Way smaller than Budokan even.

Oh okay, thanks for clearing that up, hehe. So no one from IM is currently living in Japan, right?
[quote="Tidus"]Ah yeah, Tomoyuki? He's a good guy. Yeah, the guy I know is good friends with him, actually! If everyone can get one person to get a ticket for them, it should be pretty easy. There are plenty of fanclub members on facebook these days, and they seem to really like helping foreign busters![/quote]
Hey do you know, if Tomoyuki or this friend of his could also buy a ticket for me? Or otherwise, how could I get in contact with these 'fanclub members'?
You also have a contact in Japan already Brye?

Edit: seems you can buy the tickets starting from August 30: http://www.diskgarage.com/ticket/detail/no068800 and http://ticket-search.pia.jp/pia/venue/v ... nueCd=TDCH. That is if I understood it correctly.

When I asked if he could get more than one he said he could only save one. Also, I kinda prefer it to be at the city hall, more up close and personal.

Yeah, more up close and personal, but waaaaaaay harder to get a ticket. This will definitely sell out quickly.

I don't think I'll be able to attend the show if I don't have a pillows fan as my contact. Juan is there any way your contact could buy me a ticket as well? Or at least try his best? And if worse case scenario and we have no way of getting tickets to the show, are we still going to Japan??? Doesn't seem like it would have a purpose if we can't attend the show

The ticket info was just released, and I think fan club members can get early tickets by lottery on the 8th of August.

If you can't manage to get one from a contact, find a service that can buy stuff in Japan (ShoppingmallJapan, Celga, etc.) and ask them if they can get you a ticket.

Is it correct that pre-ordering starts on 30th of August?
A friend of mine is currently in Japan actually
Oh shit, I am heavily doubting if I should go or not...
I am not veru much impressed by Sawao's 'recent' live performances, but now I'm listening to TYMT and My Foot from 'Lostman go to Budokan' and it's fuckingtastic....
do some of you have some recent live performances of them?
Oh man, dilemma
I can choose not to go and have regrets when they put up a fantastic show or I can choose to go and spend a relative large amount of money on a show that may disappoint. I don't knoooow....
can the pillows possibly disappoint?

[b]Edit:[/b] Fuck this! I am going! Japan, the pillows, here I come!

[quote="Ashinow"][b]Edit:[/b] Fuck this! I am going! Japan, the pillows, here I come![/quote]

Good choice.

And NO, they will NOT disappoint.

They will not disappoint on the show celebrating the 25th year of their career. They've been working very hard lately, and they always make it count when the time comes. Trust me, it will be a night to remember.

Join me and Brye. We're getting ready to book our plane tickets/hotel within the week.

Shit, this is where being a student totally SUCKS. Very jelly of ya'll right now.

Let's hope they have a kickass 30th anniversary celebration when I'm out of school, and have more money.

[quote="Tidusauron12"]Join me and Brye. We're getting ready to book our plane tickets/hotel within the week. [/quote]Awesomeness. I'm gonna join you. Not going for a hostel? It's a lot cheaper, so I heard. I'm still busy arranging the ticket for the show... I am trying to do it via Celga now. Not enough money for the plane ticket yet hehe, have to wait for next month . Anyway, if you happen to know someone who can buy a ticket for me, that would be super awesome.

[b]edit:[/b] look at my post count

You must never post again!

I'm saving Celga as a last resort. I'm inquiring with these guys right now:

Ever used them before? I may try to get two tickets in case Tomoyuki can't get me one since I'm going with my Step Brother (dad doesn't want me going alone on my first trip outside the U.S.)
