Hello everybody!
I have a question concerning the balloting system for concert tickets. I'm going to Japan for one year in September and I'd like to know if the sale for all Arashi concerts are done at once or if I could still ballot for tickets in January (Nagoya concert) after joining the FC in September.
Does anyone have further information about this?

[EDIT] Thank you for all your fast answers! I guess I have to try my luck next year then...

after you enter to the fans club....you have to wait ONE YEAR for to enter to the ballotage.

Where did you hear THAT? I joined this March and balloted yesterday for Kokuritsu without any problems.

You're totally wrong!! But it's to late for this year.

balloting ends in on June26/27 even for concerts in Janurary. Your best chance to get tickets is to see if anyone is selling them here or at other places. You can try balloting next year. Good luck!

don't give up!!!! I'm almost sure that SOMEONE is going to sell tickets here. But it might be a little more pricy. Unfortunately, I already balloted but next year, let's do it together to increase our chances ^^

I'm new to the whole ticketing system too, but from what I've learned so far it looks like the balloting is done all at once which is going on right now.

I hope I am wrong for your sake!

A few years ago they made an exception for people with late membership additions, and gave them a chance for late balloting, but that was before results were announced. There is a very slim chance that when you sign up for your membership you'll get a ballot slip, but I think that you might have to sign up as a member NOW in order to get the chance...

I'm pretty sure you had to sign up for membership by the end of May this year to ballot for all the concerts for this tour. Sorry!!

Yep! ant_power is correct here...

Yeah you had to join by the end of May.

Kerrol is right.

All ballots for this concert need to be in by the 26th of June for 2011 and 27th of June for 2012. I'm sorry but you won't be able to ballot for the Beautiful World tour.

I'm an FC member and that's what my paper work says!

Also, results will be out by the 20th of July for all venues...

Even though there are concert dates in 2012 once the ballot deadline passes (on 6/27), there won't be a chance to get tickets through the FC.

Of course there still are benefits of join the FC. BTW, It will take approximately 2-4 weeks for your membership to process too.

There's something I want to ask mn ^__^
The FC ticket has the name on it, right?
So will it work even if your name on FC card and the ticket doesnt match?

As in if you buy tickets from someone else?

It wouldn't matter ~ So many people enter the venue at once that ticket takers don't have time to check all your IDs.
Besides tickets are exchanged online (at face price) or sold on auction and stuff so there are bound to be people who have tickets that are not theirs. (Keep in mind (rare but) there are instances when tickets become voided)

If you apply for the FC with your full name than the tickets will have the FC name you applied in (I would suggest using the name you will have proof of ID in)

I might be in Japan too for an year, starting from September. And I'll try to go to Nagoya in January ( to beg for a ticket that day if I won't be able to buy one through other means ), or at least to buy some goods. Maybe we'll meet there to fangirl and hunt together for tickets!

Yup! I chose an university in Tokyo ( but don't know yet if I'll be accepted, I get the answer next month ). Which city are you going to?

Date: 2011-06-23 12:03 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] darkhriss.livejournal.com
My first choice was Ochanomizu ( and then Keio and Akita ). Woah, I really hope I'll be accepted! I'd be nice to be together in Tokyo. I want non-japanese Arashi friends <3 ( we know better how it's like to fangirl and suffer from distance, haha )

Are you going with the japanese studies scholarship?

Date: 2011-06-23 12:27 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] darkhriss.livejournal.com
Ah, it's not the japanese studies scholarship. This one is offered through the embassy and you have to take some exams for it and then go to an interview. I luckily passed both, now I'm waiting for the answer from Japan.

Let's keep in touch ne?

Sorry for the random comment, but I was really surprised to see this comment! ...I'm studying abroad at Waseda from September too! Along with 3 other Johnny's fan friends. We should totally meet up when we all get there. Will you be on the Intensive Japanese Language course?

Date: 2011-06-24 02:16 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] lady--ishtar.livejournal.com
Yes! :D We'll be there on the 7th!
I'll send you a picture too.... Or do you have facebook? Could add you on there if so.

Ah okay. I think my FB is somewhere on my LJ profile anyway so I don't mine posting it here!
