Yeah I think so too ! And among the things, maybe a new world tour ?

This is somehow expected already... But then again, this 10th Anniversary Concert will be the biggest one ever. I can see them playing like a 30-song setlist with all their famous hits being played... This will be amazing

I think it's pretty clear now that the next album will come out next year and will probably be thematically linked to the anniversary. I also think it's safe to assume that it'll be the first album containing songs 100% written and composed by the girls. Like a big artistic statement underlining this 10-year achievement.

Ok. So, I have a year to save up for this.

$2500 for a direct flight to Tokyo from Atlanta. (Can get cheaper, but not without layovers and unfamiliar airlines.)
$350 total for bullet train ticket to and from Osaka.

Any idea what the concert tickets might cost? How about hotel and food costs?

Anyone else thinking about going? Not sure how serious I am about going to this, but it's worth investigating.

Tickets will probably be upwards of 6000 yen. It's hard to say how much you should put aside for hotel and food because it'll depend on your length of stay, where you want to stay, and what you'd want to eat.

Although we haven't discussed it yet, I'm pretty sure that most of my group in LA will try to go. A bunch of us are planning to go to Budokan in January, but I could see some compromising to go to the 10th anniversary live instead.

I'm pretty sure I'll be going. For lodging I'd recommend finding someone or others to split with if you want to stay longer just to make it cheaper. I'm getting an airbnb with some folks here for Budokan and it's a whole lot cheaper with several of us splitting it. Food I can't say, not yet anyway.

So I guess I'm going to Japan 3 times in the next year, November for work, Budokan and now this ^^
Exciting year!

Is it means they will play at an outdoor venue like Rock in Japan or Wacken Open Air?
To those always longing but never make it to their arena live in Japan, this 10th anniversary live is the one to go!
I always think it will be good if the regional offices of Sony/Epic will put some effort to coordinate with travel agencies will definitely help their oversea fans to attend this event.

That's awesome! .clap. Had a feeling it was gonna be a live, but I was thinking a special private kind a live like the SM limited.. but having it outdoors in public is even more awesome.  I'm hoping it be recorded for broadcasting but then again I might actuall go.  Is it gonna be an arena?

I have a feeling its gonna be like Osaka jo Hall Wonderful Tonight all over again, 10th anniversary....in Osaka...tears will be wept. .dies.

Is the park outside Osaka Jo big enough for something like this? It would be interesting to play there since that's where they started playing live performances....

There is an outdoor venue in the park, but its capacity is only 3,000. This sounds like this will be more of a huge event for thousands of people, so it's doubtful it'll be there. They would probably need to play at no less than a fairly large field or arena.

Hrm, good point. If they did it at that small of a venue, tickets would be tremendously hard to get

This definitely sounds like it'll be a wonderful live for the girls and for the fans who are going to attend. ^.^ It's a nice first announcement for their plans for their 10th anniversary.

I'm really interested in attending the live but I don't think that's a very realistic possibility. It's already hard enough trying to find money for the trip to attend the Budokan lives - which is not something I'm willing to cancel on for reasons - so I'm almost positive that a second trip to Japan on my finances is not at all possible.

It's worth some consideration to go, however. Who knows how things will end up being closer to that time frame haha. ^.^"

An outdoor fest in/near Osaka?

I wonder if they are gonna do it at Maishima, the site of the Osaka leg of SUMMERSONIC 2015 held a few days ago.



Lots of large spaces to choose from! ˆˆ

I wonder if the tickets will be general or with predetermined rows and seats.

I will try my best to go to this.

I'm planning my family trip to Japan for next year. Unfortunately it's in November.
I found flights directly from Los Angeles to Osaka for less than $1,000 on ANA or JAL.

Now I just need to change the dates to the swelter of summer and tell my family I will ditch them for the concert :-)

There were a few cheaper flights from Atlanta, as little as $1300, but they weren't very attractive. The cheapest one was from Turkish Airlines and had a long layover in Istanbul. Pretty much all of them under $2,000 had at least one layover, sometimes two, and were often in the 30 hour total travel time range. Compare that to the $2400 Delta flight that is direct to Tokyo.

It'll depend though. If I can get a long enough period of time off from work, then those epic long flights wouldn't be so terrible. I think I need to start prepping my boss for me taking two weeks off this time next year.

BTW, in case people haven't checked, the concert will be on a Sunday.

The flights I found so far to Osaka are on ANA or JAL , actually stops in Tokyo first (1-2 hours) and total travel time around 15 hours.

You might have to fly out of LA :-)

Since its an outdoor concert, there probably wont be any seats,(well they might be some sideline seats) just all standing. So the tickets could be general and you could just go as you can.  .cool.

--------------------------------

I don't know what kinda venue they will hold it, but since its gonna be some big one man band, and sorta a celebration. My guess it will be a football field like stadium something like Rock on the Range or something like this:
 or maybe smaller.

Though I don't know if they have something like that in Osaka .whistle.  this is just guess

It's weird to think that it might actually be cheaper to book a flight to LA and then make a separate booking to Japan than to just book Atlanta to Japan at the same time....


Edit: Holy cow. I just did some poking around, and I could find a combined round trip flight from Atlanta to Osaka for $1121.00 + junk fees. Spirit Airlines (who?) from Atlanta to LA and then Hawaiian Airlines to Osaka.

Anybody know anything about those airline companies?

is this type of thing done for concerts as well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=89_soJefAQY ?
How early do people show up there in general?

Everyone who's talking about or asking personal-related questions such as flight plans/hotels/etc., please take it somewhere better suited for that such as the Member Activities forum instead.

This thread is in the SCANDAL News forum, which means it's meant more for stuff that's actually related to the concert itself. Thanks.

This sure will be the biggest show ever they made till now! 10 years from their first perform...I could start crying as a baby if I think about it  .toj. they're reaching a very important goal for their career. I'm so happy for the girls!

 Yeah, I think the same. They sure will play many more songs than they do in a normal show!

Probably it will. Normally, artists launch their new album before a new tour starts, and in this case I guess they'll do it before the Anniversary. In addition to celebrating the important aim, SCANDAL will have the possibilities to promote this hypotetical new album.

For some else related news, we just have to keep waiting!
Can't wait
