Arashi Australia Fan Meet

[Arashi Australia Fan Meet]

...is still but a dream but we can make it happen! I've been seeing all the different fan meets in so many locations so I thought that Australia should have one too! For the time being, I just wanted to know how many people would be interested since I don't really know how strong the fanbase is. Ah, specifically, I'm in Melbourne so the meet would most probably be here. And also, If we were to have one, is anyone interested in helping to organise it?

And since its right around the corner, HAPPY NEW YEAR TO EVERYONE! May all of you have a wonderful Arashi-filled year ahead! =D

[Edit: Now that I think about it, what kind of fanmeet does everyone think is best? You don't have to be in Australia to reply! =DD]

I'm also in Australia. Though sadly I'm in Sydney.

I'm thinking on having a JE fanmeet sometimes next month in Sydney. We've actually had a few meet ups done in the past :D

Uwaah!!

[arashilovezs.livejournal.com]

OMG I'm like SO out of it huh? You've had A FEW?? That's WONDERFUL news!! What did you guys do?? Somehow, I have so many different images of fanmeets that I don't really know what to hold. On that thought, I think I should edit my post!
Thanks for your reply! =D

Dear, I'm sure you're not the only one there. I think j_halo7 is in Perth right now for her Uni. She's usually in Singapore though D: If you ask around you'll never know what you'll find :D

I CANNOT FIND ANYONE. EVER.

I feel like you, like I'm the only fan in Perth. xD

Can I add you?

Hello! There's a couple of us in Perth... though I'd thought there were only 3 in total :P I tend to be pretty quiet on the net. But there are some!

I am Arashi fan in Australia, but I live in Sydney, don't think I can join
but hope you guys & girls will have fun meeting

[thebazile24.livejournal.com]

does arashi know that they have lots and lots of fans around the world? i wish they do...sometimes i feel like i'm all alone...i live in a small city from the philippines...haven't known anyone here who is an arashi fan...except maybe for my cousin who became a fan just because of me letting her watch all of their videos...she was jun-baited first just like me hehe...but i know there are lot of fans in the capital city here...it's just impossible for me to attend the meet-ups...they are an ocean away...seesh...

i'm not sure whether i can join or not but i reakon karaoke will be pretty awesome!
k-box has a japanese karaoke package and it's A$18 including 2 drinks and it's from 3 - 8!

[arashilovezs.livejournal.com]

Karaoke sounds great! Hm.. "its from 3-8"? 3-8pm?

[green-yeti.livejournal.com]

Btw, is there an Australia JE community?

[scribblyness-x.livejournal.com]

*waves* Melbourne fan here. I'll be interested in attending a fanmeet. Karoke sounds awesome and maybe we could grab some food at Sushi Sushi on Swanston St.

[kitit.livejournal.com]

Arashi fan I am! Not from a city but a small town on the coast closer to Sydney though...
Thank god for simultaneously falling in love with Arashi with another girl from this tiny town or I probably would have died. And love for the internets. So much love. I'd probably try and go to melbourne for a fan meet anyway.
It would be so fun!

[arisa-draconis.livejournal.com]

Where about on the coast? I'm going down to Nowra next week to visit a friend of mine then maybe the three of us can do a meet-up :D

[e7erlasting.livejournal.com]

[newbielolita.livejournal.com]

WANT!

WANT!

WANT!

/dies~

Please organise one, pleaseeeee

I need a huge dosage of Arashi =D (can't live without a fix of Arashi each day, may it be music, pics, gifs, dramas or mags~

just a thought

[ratuquinn.livejournal.com]

i'm not australian but i want to share some of my thoughts about something you can do on a fanmeet^^ i've organized a fanmeet once (but not JE fanmeet)and i've attended arashi fanmeet several times^^

karaoke is good, and since you're going to hold it on January why not celebrate Sho's bday, having a fun Sho trivia section and for those who can answer gets prizes (like u can make arashi book divider, badge, or posters) and buy a birthday cake and u guys can eat them together, usually at the end of fanmeet the commitee give some sort of souvenir (u can make ur own designed small arashi picbook, or a keychain or anything else u have in mind) an dont forget to take pictures for documentation^^

that's all my suggestions, just be creative on what're u going to do^^

Re: just a thought

[arashilovezs.livejournal.com]

Thanks for the suggestions =) It depends on how much time I have and what I can put together =) The souvenir is a great idea but Melbourne is kind of limited in services in my direct area but I have a rough idea of what kind to give (if it works out lol) Since its my first one, I'm a bit nervous and tryin to make it simple without bein boring though just adding Arashi to the equation makes it tons of fun right? =D

[ambalaka12.livejournal.com]

I'm in Australia too! But in Brisbane. D: So far I can't find any JE related shops here. Wonder if anyone else is a fan here too?

[arisa-draconis.livejournal.com]

I've talked to a few fans from Brisbane :D I can't remember who they are though *short memory i have* but yes there aren't any JE related shops unfortunately D:

[ultravi0l3t.livejournal.com]

Ooo! Ooo!
i'm in melbourne too! woot woot =D
didn't think there were that many aussie arashi fans out there..
and i'm majorly pissed off that i didn't even know about them when they came to aus..lol...just hopeinf that one day they'll come back again =D
arashi meet...i am interested=D

[arisa-draconis.livejournal.com]

Wait you said that they came to AUS? When was that????? I didn't know! I hope it's not in the last 2 years D:

[carmy-k.livejournal.com]

OMGOSH I feel soooo overwhelmed!!!!
THERE ARE ACTUALLY JOHNNY FANS ALL OVER THE WORLD!! WAHAHAHAHAHA~~~~
INCREDIBLE!!!!
KEEP UP THE HARD WORK PEOPLES!!!
If arashi founds out that Australia has so many fans they might come one day!!!!! *fingers crossed!!!*****

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!!! ^^V

[masaki82.livejournal.com]

Great idea... I was wondering if there were any Arashi fans in Melbourne.
I would definitely go and support you and the other Arashi fans.
I just hope it's during the holidays and I'm in!
