Hmm, the Fukuoka show on New Year's Eve is not stating late and ending after midnight? Odd decision I must say. I might have gone if it had been another ring-in-the-New-Year show.

[Jei]

I'm debating on the Osaka dates...

[Jinn]

Wish I could go again!

Do you know anything about the backstory of the concert? At the end of the Wonderland concert there was a video with this "evil" DCT mascot, I wonder what all this means

[nogizaka]

DCT uses Warukuma, the "Bad Bear" as the mascot for the Ura Dori concerts, perhaps because it's the "other side" of Wonderland.

Ah I see, thanks!

[Jei]

So, since the tickets On Sale date is next month, I must ask: Anyone looking towards attending a concert this fall?

[Spaceman]

Well I was thinking about trying for the Saitama ones, but after putting the site http://tickets.yahoo.co.jp/special/dct2 ... an/ticket/ through a translator it came back with the following as a translation of the last 3 items under ticket notes

• No seat number with tickets by mail.

• Ticket mailed to you contains date, venue name, buyer name, asset number. Number and tracking number assigned tickets each instead of a seat number, and seat position inferred.

• On the day of the venue presenting proof of identity is required.

Is that normal for them to state these sorts of things, and then just ignore it on the door and let you in or are they doing things differenly for this tour?
It also looks like they are saying that you don't get your seat location until you turn up on the day, or is the whole thing just been mistranslated
what do you guys think?

[nogizaka]

Your translation is correct. To avoid scalping, the ticket vendor is sending 'pre-tickets,' or vouchers, which must be presented in order to receive the actual ticket on the day of the show.

I understand why they are doing it, but it certainly is inconvenient.

[Jei]

Asking time: Anyone attending this concert?

[Spaceman]

Was going to, but with the mesing about they were planning on doing with the tickets, I didn't want to take the chance, that after going all that way, they wouldn't let me in

So, I just got back from Osaka where I saw this concert . I'll write up a review later (dealing with jet lag), but I wanted to share two pics:

one of two of the glow stick holders...


the other of the song list (well almost all of it)
