I think they do let people in after the concert starts when it's at a big stadium. (At theater shows they certainly don't.) But yeah, it seems...
So here's a logistics question, how long do we think this concert will go? Starts at 6pm. I probably won't be able to get a Thursday off my...
I am extremely happy with the results. My number #1 and my #2 tied for first!!! :):1st::1st::) And to think, if I hadn't voted for either of...
It looks like you got the dates mixed up: The big handshake event is on the 17th. The 10th is the "AKB48 Group Summer Matsuri Event" Matsuri is...
I had a different sort of AKB experience tonight. I decided to go lurk by the AKB theater and see what I could see of the aftermath of Takamina's...
Takamina was definitely an icon of AKB. I always thought she'd be the last first gen to graduate. I feel sad. Anyway, I was one of those fans...
There is a clause in the contract that members "must not become involved in activities that could harm the group's image and reputation." I'd...
It might help to define what we mean by "gay". I mean, what makes a person gay? homosexual attraction? homosexual behavior? homosexual...
A Nana Okada senbatsu would be sweet. So, I was on the train the other day, when I saw Nana Okada's name and picture on an advertisement for...
The comparison to Yuko's grad concert reminded me of something: @hugoa I wanted to apologize for the earlier post I had directed towards you. I...
Definitely not the same. Even if they did use a same 10 second loop, Sasae is a mellow, laid back kind of song. It's easy to tune out. Bells...
Started watching the grad concert stream today. I couldn't make it past Heavy Rotation without turning it off. It hurt too much. All my...
I read somewhere that the rule with AKB48 is that your last stage with them before you graduate is in the theater. Period. Under that...
My original thought was that it should be BGK48, but it makes sense that they wouldn't call it that because "Bangkok" in Japanese is "Bankoku", as...
I thoroughly enjoyed the East/West show. How nice it was to sit and watch AKB on a gorgeous sunny day. It was fun. (even if my seat sucked...
Wow! That set list sounds awesome! So much graduate participation. This is the concert I've been wanting to see for years. And, as luck would have...
Just for the record... I attended the concert today, and I enjoyed it. Was it the best AKB concert I've ever seen? No, it wasn't. But it was...
Thanks for posting the picture. Wow, you seem to get lucky with these stadium shows. Arena level must be nice. I can't figure out if my seat is...
I got an e-mail with East West battle ticket info about an hour go, around 10 hours after the e-mail for the AKB solo concert.
This is usually the part in the forum where I say "Hey, come on, there's no need to be so pessimistic." But I think you're right on this one. I...
