Johnny's Countdown Concert

[meeohchan.livejournal.com]

Hello!
I was wondering if anyone that has been to the Countdown concert knows when I can go and get goods, like the jumbo uchiwa countdown version. I have a feeling they could start selling them today like they've started to do for other concerts, but I have no idea. Any little information helps!!

Thank you very very very much and I hope you guys have a wonderful New Year Eve/Day!

you can check the official Johnny's.net page for information on when the goods lines open...it usually says so in the concert information part :X

That's what I thought too, so I've been checking it, but they haven't posted anything about goods yet >_< Thank you, though!

I figure they won't start selling until late because the kinki kids concert is before that... kinki goods would be open from 10:00 until the end of the concert (so that's around 20:00)...

so I guess countdown stuff wouldn't be on sale until like at least 20:00 ?
since they need to re-shuffle the booths...

I dunno about other years of countdown but when I was in Tokyo last year, they only sold countdown uchiwas on 31st Dec from early in the morning (I started queueing at 10am). Most of the uchiwas were sold out after the NEWS concert had ended in the evening.

I just realized that Johnny's Countdown Concert starts at 11pm but the TV broadcast only start airing from 11:45pm. And depending on what time Arashi will get to Johnny's Countdown Concert, it looks like they'll probably going to miss the first hour of the concert. Well, I hope they'll make it on time for the TV portion at least, they are the MC afterall.

I've check Johnny's net. It's said that goods will be open from 8:30 am.

OO finally. I've been looking for the past two days. I guess checking last minute is always the way to go. Thank you!

just so you know, there will only be group uchiwas. 7 group uchiwas... no penlights and no shopping bag, either...

Group Uchiwa is just AWESOME (:
I love the surprise by Johnny-san this year (:

sorry, i'm quite bitter about this whole thing. I was looking forward to a new uchiwa for my Koyama uchiwa collection. i'm not looking forward to this countdown at all, NEWS have only one single the whole year, i don't doubt that the majority of the countdown will be arashi songs. lucky arashi fans! wait, that includes me but... NEWS!

Oh. I thought because it is something NEW.
I'm sorry if i offended you.
But I do decide Johnny put lots of attention on ARASHI this year, perhaps it is because it is their 10 Anniversary.
Do keep a positive mind, I believe NEWS will be back with more next year (:
CHEERS ^O^

nah, i'm not offended. just really into the topic b/c i'm chatting with a NEWS fan about it and she's not happy about this, either. lol.

i love arashi, i really do but this whole year has been too much. even last year, the 9th year, is when it all started, i'm starting to think that that's what made me love NEWS a bit more, b/c they're not as perfect as arashi. :( arashi need a break, Johnny has been working them too much, let their juniors take the light! :D lol. arashi will always be popular, no matter what they do, they're special like that. :)

and thank you, i hope so!!!

You know, I never understand why johhny's can't promote more than one or two groups at the same time. Even though I'm a hardcore Arashi's fan, but I like all the Johnny's groups and feel really sorry for HSJ, NEWS and T&T this year- there was so little activities from all three groups this year. Arashi's activities really took off the last 2 years, but for many years before that they were pretty neglected in Jimusho as well, so I understand what it feels like when you see other groups doing a lot of activities but not your fav. I really wish there was more balance in the Jimusho, I think every group should get a fair share number of releases and they really should quit it with the whole solo and special unit releases. I mean I'm really happy that Arashi are doing so much this year, but just because Arashi are releasing a lot I don't understand why other groups can't release just as much, it's not like the Jimusho is short of money and can't hire more songwriters :{

Last year the countdown uchiwas were also available at the Johnny's store.
