Ha ha, it looks like the recent trip to North America had an influence on the artwork. Isn't Christmas Eve a big date night in Japan? I wonder if Scandal will avoid putting break-up songs on the set-list, lol.

I still remember the only live streaming for fans viewing in cinema overseas before.
Great great memories of sharing the joy with them in real time!
Doesn't seem they have any plan this time again.

The price in English money is £34.99, not bad at all but I like the reminder that drinks are extra, you need a Bank Loan to buy drinks at the O2 Academy Islington but those are just London Prices Happy

Yeah, this was only done once, 10 years ago. And since they no longer have the backing of Epic/Sony and unfortunately aren't as popular as they were back then, it's probably safe to say that they would not be able to do that again.

The "Additional drink fee" at Toyosu PIT is a one-time charge of 600 yen at the door. They give you a token that you can exchange for a non-alcoholic drink at the venue's bar. This is a standard practice at standing-only venues in Japan.

Thanks for the info, but 600yen is £3.72 in English money, I would expect a beer for that price Happy

For that price I expect my non-alcoholic drink to come in a stein glass.

While Scandal does this Xmas night nearly every year. Do any of girls follow a religion, I doubt Christianity is one of them.

You guys sure you're up to speed with how crazy expensive drinks are at venues these days? In the US, 600 yen/$4 USD would actually be around the standard price for a non-alcoholic drink at a live venue. 2000 yen/$14 USD would be around what a beer costs. Same thing seems to be happening in the UK too.

But anyway, standing-only venues in Japan mainly charge this drink fee to cover venue maintenance costs as well as to keep their status as a "eating and drinking establishment."

Christmas is not a religious holiday in Japan; it's more of a secular holiday that is celebrated mainly by friends or couples. Let's just leave it at that and not discuss religion any further

I would love to go to wherever you are seeing shows for $14 beers. I've been paying $18-$23 lately for 24oz. I could have a reasonable dinner for that amount.

OT-- Santa, pizza, Scandal: I love the combination.

There were probably many people who had a hard time getting to the venue due to the cold weather in many areas🥲
Thank you for braving that and spending Christmas Eve with us🥹🫶‍�
It was a lot of fun

How did you guys spend Christmas the following day
I slept without setting an alarm, woke up in the early afternoon, cleaned the washing machine and microwave, organized the kitchen shelves, and took a break. I woke up like, "My mouth is so dry!!" Then I folded the laundry, took out the trash, took a bath, and went to bed」
