I just got mine this week. My ticket took a while since I asked for a ticket from their lottery (the seats close to the stage).

I bought two more tix for this Saturday. Being the n00b I am, I bought the tix on the regular sale which meant seats in the LAST row. On an auction site, you can find out what seats they have and for just 1500yen extra we got 18th row in the middle column!

Which show are you watching?

I'll be going to the April 12th on tokyo. What did you do to the other tickets that's on the last row? Last row might not be that bad since they're performing on 4-5k seat concert halls and not the usual arenas so you probably don't need to squint to see them xD

Damn it's first come first serve entry again, was hoping the tickets would be numbered since it's technically not a weekend and people still need to work (and go to school). Looks like I really need to beg for an off day when I get my new job

meet and greet session! D: luckyyyy! i'd get a ticket for the sg concert but i'll need to apply for a work pass again to claim the ticket xD

I'll see if a friend/friends of the friend wanna go.

For tomorrow's Tamashin RISURU show we got last row on 2F but I couldn't find a seller that sells 3 tix next to each other. It's ok. As you say this is a hall not the Super Saitama. Lookin fwd to be closer in Maebashi, though.

In transit in Helsinki at the mo. Can't wait.

And oh - I had my first ever reply from SCANDAL on Twitter with regards tomorrow's live!

https://twitter.com/scandal_haruna/status/560371495449284609

I finally have all my desired tickets together they only have to be sent from Japan to Germany. In Japan I will go to Kakogawa, Nara, Nagoya (worst seat with row 15 – 17 ), Sapporo and Asahikawa. The next months I can’t read this thread too carefully because I want to be surprised with the track list(s).


I also have VIP tickets for London and Essen. Some people already wrote that they want to meet before or at the concerts so I also would be happy to meet some guys from SH.

lucky! so you know japanese too? i'm just winging it when i get there. it shouldn't be that hard right? xD

My nihon go is VERY rudimentary. lol

I think Japan is easy if you've been around to other countries. The people who gets flustered are those who didn't do any research about the country and her people, and those who thinks everyone on the planet should know English. But that's only my humble opinion. 

On the NRT Express en route to Shinjuku. Tachikawa tonight!!! 嬉しいだよ‼︎

Haha yeah, saw that tweet.

wow dude, how many shows will you see?! Hahaha but seriously, how many lol.

Set list for Tamashin RISURU...

*drum roll*

The same as Atsugi!

EXCEPT
Satisfaction was between Awanai and Hello, Hello.

And we got... STANDARD as the first song in the encore!

I have a list of what guitars they used for each song. Will do that later. In the train to Shinjuku now.

And to answer your question, M. I'm going to Maebashi on Saturday. That's it. And London.

EDIT: FULL set list.

Tamashin RISURU Hall, Tachikawa.

Guitars in order of TIMO/HARU/MAMI.
Bl-Bluetus; Prec-Precision
Pwn-Pawnshop; SKULL-SKULLSILVER/TELE-Thinline
JM-Jazzmaster (Fender);MAMICSTR-Fender Am HSS Strat;LESPAUL/GRETSCH-self-explanatory;STRATOM-Stratomaster

Spoiler:

@maharizm So detailed! Thanks so much! With the list of guitars used make me feel I was there.
I'm sure their roadies must be very busy backstage. Hope they're not required to change strings for each swap haha!

how the heck do you remember things to such detail? i would have trouble recalling just the setlist, let alone the instruments they used for each song. the marriage thing was kind of cute hahaha. sounds plenty of fun tonight

i'm suddenly having this image of them singing SCANDAL IN THE HOUSE on all their overseas lives, sort of as an introduction to the world, but i think i can continue dreaming though.

I entered the titles in short form in the Notes app on my iPhone every time they played a song.

DON'T tell anyone, OK? Jōdan da yo. Jōdan.

A few things of note:
1. 22 song set. 2 songs longer than their Festival set.
2. They did the one-man songs together (Oyasumi etc) in one shot.
3. The lack of co-ordination in hand movements amongst the crowd with the newer songs (unlike the older ones where everyone would jump at the same moment in, say ESY). I ended up dancing the twist/doing the mash potato for Your song (you really don't wanna see that) and playing air drums to Onegai Nabigeshon.
4. The bar MC was chilled out. One of the letters read was of said fan who proposed to his kōhai and she said yes. The girls did a coordinated Kekkon omedetō with RINA starting off with a rap-like stuttering Kek-kek-kek-kon. Then they got all of us to wish the to-be couples. When they did the letters, they would look to the crowd and the people who got their letters read will make themselves known. You could hear a pin drop during the MC as everyone was very attentive!
5. During STANDARD, TIMO went all out rocking out with her bass stood on the sofa. Like a bad ass. Keep it up, LISTEN to Shou-P! Hahaha.
6. TIP for Hall tours in Japan - go on a school day. Go to one in a smallish city. Man, merch queue was NON-EXISTENT even one hour before doors open and the only thing sold out were the wrist bands when I got there! And CANTA was so friendly, patting my head (I really don't look like I am 5). But the poor guy was blind as a bat - he had to be led around by a minder.

^^Dude, your memory is indeed crazy but hey, none of us here are complaining.

I really wanna seen Tomo jump on that couch; hell that'd be amazing! It's kinda weird that Tomo would only use two basses since she's got a bunch like her Stingray or her Yamaha. But she does take favour towards Bluetus and her black precision bass so who knows. Mami using her LP during ShunSen! Awesome~! And Rina using a tele; I thought she'd use a pink mustang like in the HW dvd. She's following Leader's footsteps, haha.

She was on the couch for part of the song. But yeah. She was amazing.

Seeing four of them in a row with guitars onstage was a delightful sight during Oyasumi. RINA not using the red/?pink Pawn shop Fender was a bit of a surprise.

As for the memory bit, I was committing everything down in writing as soon as I got back to my hotel room. Also, when I get to experience something I really love, I try to savour every moment. But I do wish my nihon-go was better than toire doko desu ka - need to know what the MCs are about!!!

I wanna share this - one is never too old to take photos with a costumed character. Honest.

About RINA's guitar, she did write in early November that she bought a new one that she wouldn't reveal/use until the tour started.

I went to Fender today
I decided on a guitar! It was love at first sight! Hyaー♡It's been a while since I've had feelings like this. I'm happy.
I won't show it until the tour︎

It's actually navy blue.

...But I do wish my nihon-go was better than toire doko desu ka -need to know what the MCs are about!!!

LOL. I'm just starting to learn Japanese but I know what you said there :-)

I hope the band does some MC in english. That would be cool to hear!

I bought my ticket for the LA show.

It's not VIP, but at least I'll see them play live

I guess I'll meet them some other time ; u;

Honestly, just seeing Rina sing live with a guitar is a dream.
I wonder what her guitar looks like. Just plain cream tele?
Thanks for that detailed info ~^^~
Too bad I won't be able to watch any -.- I'm missing my whole life again, just missing every opportunity to see them..waaa.

Greetings from the Chūō line. Another great set from SCANDAL live at the Beisia Cultural Hall in Maebashi city.

Well, the EXACT same set as Tachikawa city!!! lol

That's fine by me as we were closer this time to the stage. A few nice moments from the middle chilled out MC. Will update later!

UPDATE
This was a better night from the audience participation standpoint. They were all mad for it, both band and crowd.
The bar room MC (from what I can figure out):
- RINA ordered an oolong (tea) on the rocks from the masutaa (Motchy!) behind the bar and said it was amusing (okashii) that at her age she was not ordering something stronger
- TIMO who was seated on the couch raised her beer bottle in response "Well, there's only POCARI SWEAT in this one..."
- HARU was wearing the same getup she wore on the album cover and said her skinny jeans very tight as she said this was in pretty much a kid's size. Prolly why she remained standing as opposed to sitting on the central monitor like the previous raibu.
- for the most part of the MC the girls were doing a call-and-response act with the audience in which HARU would start with the beginning of a phrase followed by the audience completing it. Probably this was something unique to the area - I so wish I understood this segment. But TIMO not getting it right was so funny, you don't even need to know any nihon-go for that.
- the girls were bowled over when the last Gunma pref. trivia letters from a fan described that there are only three places on the planet that makes Häagen-Dasz - one in the US, one in France, and one in Takasaki city, Gunma! BTW this was their first ever Gunma pref. show, if I got it right at the beginning of the first MC.
- MAMI as usual was the quietest one but she made up for it by being her cute self doing little jigs behind her mic in this segment.

Oh, cool.

Then, I wondered what the "Takasaki <nihongo> first time <more nihon-go>..." was about, then hahaha.

EDIT: Ah, prolly they meant Maebashi city, looking at that list.

Hey, does anyone know what kinds of merchandise they sell at the tour? I am hoping to buy an official scandal towel and mascotte.
