*Thanks hahaxwill for creating the list

 

We had 15 pages of crap so let's start fresh with hopefully detailed official info soon.
Please try not to have BS chat in this thread. Those who are coming from out of state might need info from here.

** All official info will be posted on page 1 first post **

 

Any details on performing members?

 

no

 

This is as close of a confirmation as we could get from NYAF but still no detail on official site

duh...like we don't know already....

*Thanks Ange for the tip

 

It´s Official It's already in the NYAF site

 

Jesus, they just updated it, thanks!

 

Please excuse the following foul language - I very very happy right now
FUCK TO THE YES IT IS OFFICIALLY OFFICAL HAHAHAHA!!!

I might be getting a job at my college and if I do I may have to work that weekend but screw that if I do I am getting out of work. I am going to order my ticket soon so AKB48 > a possible job.
Yes yes yes yes yes!!!! OMG AND they'll be performing twice, AND they'll be an autograph session...

Oh my god.
I CAN GET TAKAMINA'S AUTOGRAPH HO SHIT!!!

 

it's about time! they took long enough, but whatever i can finally look into plane tickets and hotels.

i have a question, what's the capacity of webster hall?

 

crap, I left a comment in MediumAtLarge but had a typo
My head is spinning, now I gotta plan...

 

So for out of towners, are you guys planning to attend both Saturday and Sunday, or just one day? I have a strange feeling that the Webster Hall concert is only free if your show proof that you bought a ticket for NYAF ^^;

 

Webster Hall ballroom holds about 1500. http://www.websterhall.com/rentals/08_photo_gb.php

The Studio @ Webster Hall about 300. http://www.websterhall.com/rentals/08_photo_st.php

 

I didn't think of that. I was just about to buy the Saturday ticket only. Maybe the weekend ticket is better. Has anyone bought their tickets yet?

 

Saturday and Sunday!? I'll need to be looking up prices again...

 

YES YES YES!!

That's what AKB will do to you.

Now to figure out this ticket and plane plan >:3

 

Two days of AKB48 goodness?!

AWESOME!

I'm so glad it's FINALLY official.

 

They are finally on the Musical Guest list!

http://www.newyorkanimefestival.com/en/Guests/#AKB48

 

Yes YES YES!

Finally. Good thing its a free concert... Makistar, is the old list from the previous thread still good for group tickets?

 

^ Group discount applies only to Weekend pass

 

ow $884 - Tickets to New York

Т______Т why is it so expensive?
