Omg yes!!!!! I live in Boston so I will 1000000% go to ny for their show. Was thinking maybe I do San Francisco too. Hope to see some of you guys there ( in nyc, unlikely I fly to San Fran but who knows)

Just bought my presale tix for the NYC concert! I actually started crying the second I saw it on FB I've been waiting 6 years to see them!!! Does anyone know if there will be a VIP section eventually or a meet and greet? Tix sales only have general admission.

Where did you buy presale tickets?

Good call, I was so excited I didn’t even notice. 6 credit cards, and no amex for me. I’ll wait a few days to see if there’s any info about packages, and if I can’t wait for any reason( lack of patience, overflowing with excitement) I’ll use a friends Amex to preorder. See y’all in New York

San Francisco Event tickets listed $25-$150 probably $25 for furthest seats, $150 possible VIP option. NYC AMEX pre-sale only allows GA tickets at $40 each to be bought at this time, unsure if VIP will be available for either event just yet.

This definitely made my day.  Hopefully they add Los Angeles as well.  Either way, I will definitely get a ticket for San Francisco.  I don't have an AMEX or use credit cards, so I'll have to wait until next week to get the ticket.

Wow, they haven't been to NYC since 2008! I just bought two tix (poster above is right, so far presale just says gen admission $40). I might buy more and invite friends.

Any idea who the promoters are? what company?

Ahh, thanks for note below TGE, The PlayStation Theater is owned in part by Sony. It was/is a movie theater in Times Square.

They don't use promoters when they come to the US. The branch of Epic/Sony located here handles everything.

Yesssss, finally announced! Looks like they'll be here in the US for around 2 weeks, if not longer. Looking forward to any yet-announced dates...

wow, unexpected!! congratulations to all Americans

I do have a question about the Japan concerts hahaha

I wrote them some letters to give them at either the Osaka or Tokyo concerts, but I couldn't find a present box. Does this mean that they are not receiving presents this time? If I give them to some staff member can I be sure that they are going to give them to SCANDAL?

I did a quick search on Twitter and it does look like several people have given presents to the band and put them in the present box on this tour. If you can, try to ask one of the staff members where the box is and they should be able to direct you to it.

yes I can confirm there is always a present box, usually a cardboard box or plastic crate at the live, usually near the entrance before or after you enter the venue. For taiban collaboration live too, but rare for any big festival as there are too many acts and Team Scandal are usually not by the entrance or backstage only.

Thanks! That's good to know! I'll try asking the SCANDAL staff this time.

danlexia wrote:Thanks! That's good to know! I'll try asking the SCANDAL staff this time.

If you mean the location of the present collection box? Yeah should be fine. But giving directly to staff will be difficult or rejected, they will most likely tell you to place in box.

One thing food/snack etc should be avoided as its too much for them to check if safe etc. Most likely disposed of straight away.

Japan fans tend to give card/letters, scrapbook, books/novel, souvenirs etc

Also please address the presents if its only for one member etc.
Scandal haven't gotten to the point of having separate present boxes yet heh

After the live today
There was a modest basket left in the dressing room
It had onigiri (rice balls) and sandwiches
In the evening, the large amounts of karaage (fried chicken) and inari-zushi (sushi wrapped in fried tofu)
Disappeared when the live was over
Everyone was so naughty
I'm a lady who secures enough to eat before the live
Since food always disappears quickly

That photo from Haruna's twitter!          Looks like they're having a lot of fun. Haha.

About the present box thing, I was wondering if they have that in tours outside Japan? My friend and I were thinking of giving something if ever they did have it.   .shy.

Sometimes (not always) they have present boxes outside of Japan. Also, if you attend a show and have a VIP ticket that allows you to meet the band, you're also usually able to directly hand them your present when you meet them. If you just have regular tickets, you should ask the venue staff if you're able to hand it over to them to then give to the band/management.

I see, thanks for the info

How can they not play Genki de ne? That song has over 10 million views on YT, way more than any other  Scandal song. Is it not considered their biggest "hit"?

Views ≠ not always the most popular. Technically, "AwaTsumo" is their second best-selling single according to Oricon with "Yoake no Ryuuseigun" being the first, and it's not normally the first song one thinks of when picturing SCANDAL (also, I don't think I've ever seen it shortened as "Genki de ne"......).

They always, always change up their set lists for every tour. You can't expect them to play a certain song every single time. That being said, pretty much the only constant song they always play is, of course, "SCANDAL BABY" (which honestly could be considered their top "hit" song above all others lol). Everything else is up in the air.
