I wonder how wacky and or crazy their band rider is?

It sounds like the oversold or sold out the smaller venue--good for them--so it will be interesting to see how they do in a larger venue.

preorders were for the super expensive tickets only. I wonder if they sold out... but the new date seems to work better for me. w00! *crosses fingers for general sale*

High demand, huh? I'm not really a fan, but that's still pretty impressive for a Japanese band in America.

Well that news is good to hear. There are several other japanese artists I'd rather see first, but I'll have to listen to a few of their songs and think about going, especially when it's so easy to get to.

Just bought my tickets. You had to sign up for an exclusive "Fan" mailing list to get the Pre-sale tickets. I don't really think they're that expensive considering this is their very first time playing in New York and for one night only. It's really like being a part of History. I'm almost fairly certain, they are going to sell out MSG. Can't wait!

I saw them before at Otakon, but i was only given one price option for the tickets when I went to buy them yesterday, so I'm going to take my chances on the general sale for some cheaper nosebleeds. I just can't afford 90 bucks a ticket right now, especially since I heard Gackt is planning a US tour...

I took advantage of the pre-sale.

Within 10 minutes, all the front-floor sections were sold out. They were too expensive for me so I got a middle-back section on the floor, for 88$ (that's a more reasonable price for me). I'm pretty sure those seats will be nice, since I would think it'd be right next to the sound-tech-guy (thus with best sound), but I've never been at the MSG myself.

During pre-sale quite a lot of rows from the 100s were soldout. I think there's a possiblity that they'll sellout the MSG, but I wouldn't bet on it, 'cause I don't think anyone wants those seats behind the stage. -_-

Laruku are not only popular, but the MSG is their only US venue. They so rarely come to USA so yeah. I'm personally going from Montreal for this.

I saw Hyde live before (in a Vamps concert in NY), he has a lot of stage presence, even if he's so short Anime hyper
