I'm dead serious! I already have around six grand set aside for this year. Hell, went to last year, I gotta go to this year's and the next year's and such on. Plus with Yanie in Tokyo, that means I gotta go to a concert with her, we could have matching Matsu/Takuya uchiwa's! ^^;;;;

OKAY!!! Yoshhhh!! Count me in!!!! Ill fly to wherever smap is....6 grand? OK OK .....me too me too ill set them aside....hehehe....

I think the big questions when planning out the concets is what me and my friend had in mind where these three questions:

#1. Do you want to go to the first concert or the last concert?
#2. Do you want to go on the dates where there are many dates at one time. (Like last year, we planned around the 4 Osaka dates back to back and then 3 day break and then 2 tokyo dates)
#3. Or would you want to spulrge on one or two dates where you have floor seats?

Me? I don't care where I sit, I just want to go to lots of them. But I would love to slurge on a really good floor seat on at least one show.

Ne mina-san, I apologize in advance for the long post.

Would anyone be interested in buying SMAP stuff from me? I bought a lot of stuff from Yahoo Japan for my own personal SMAP collection but I buy things in bulk and have a lot of multiple items. I have a ton of SMAP cds and books I need to get rid of to make more space (buy more stuff, hehe). I'll be selling them on eBay eventually but I wanted to see if any Smappies were interested first.

It'll be a lot cheaper than buying from my eBay store because I'll only charge the item cost and actual USPS shipping fees plus $1 for packaging (bubble envelopes and boxes usually run $0.99-$2.49). I won't charge handling fees that I have at my store (gas, time, packaging, etc).

I have almost all SMAP photo books and some biographies, ANA advertisements, tons of singles (almost all 3 inch/8 cm CD singles, used of course).

I won't be making a profit on this so this offer is only open to trusted/known Smappies. I should be able to recognize your name/username (from this forum/other forums) without a second thought.

Also, shipping from the U.S. internationally tends to be very expensive. Here's a link to the US Postal service rate calculator for reference.

PM if you're interested. Arigatou

Gomen nasai for the long post. Also, if you think this sounds shady in some way please ignore.

6 grand???? :shocked: But it's totally worth it ne. Man, I gotta go to at least one SMAP concert one of these days.

MatsuTaku uchiwa? Then there'll be no one holding a Goro uchiwa, haha.

Where are you located? We should all really consider meeting up or maybe sharing hotel space.

Well, six grand to cover the whole trip, but I figure I can make another six before the time, because I have bills to pay, otherwise it'd be more.

Ahahahahahaa. Now that is a damn good joke, about the Goro uchiwa. Aww. You made my Day

:dancing: Did you get my PM? :puppydog:

i've cut out clips of nino and nakai's interaction with each other on the fujitv drama sp thing and it's about 31 mb.

http://www.filesend.net/download.php?f=4e0...cd0a7a18d4e532b

you should definitely watch it if you like arashi and smap because you just see the great senpai-kouhai interaction. nino's quite witty also and it seems like he's not afraid of joking around with nakai

EDIT:

oh, here's something i made from the full show. gomen, i didn't include this in the file i uploaded but i shoulda huh.

Sounds awesome. Thanks for doing this! I love it when Nakai interacts with the younger talent.

Aww. But we're all going to same place, JAPAN. We can easily meet up there! ^_^ :mrgreen:

Megumi-san!!! Irrashaaaai!!^0^ So you just realized there's a discussion forum in this site?? haha....great to have you here!!

Carol! SMAP cafe....that is such a COOL idea!!!

Vanessa....a KimuraMatsu uchiwa is a good idea, LOL! In the occasion of Hero Movie premiere too...haha! And who knows, for Kimura's solo this year, it will featuring Matsu Takako :hehe:

You guys talking about concerts already. So, minna is positive, confident enough that there will be a concert this year? hehe....I kinda got a traumatic experience in 2004. The time I decided to have a trip to Japan, and it was coincidentally decided that there was no concerts that year. I'm going there again this year, so I have this fear...that maybe I'm bringing bad luck for Smappies, if I go there...then, there will be no concerts?? :sweat:

oh yanie! you should download the file i posted earlier. you're the one that made that arashi-smap fanvid right? i think you'll enjoy this clip

Other tour questions to consider

#1. Do you want to go to the first con? Or the last con?
#2. Do you want to go dates that are back to back or in differnt cities?
#3. Do you want to go many dates but decent seats or go on one/two dates and buy floor seats?
#4. Are you going to buy tickets by auction or when you get there?
#5. Are you in the SMAP fanclub or know someone who is who can give you a break in tickets?
#6. Would you want to see other act's while your there?
#7. Would you like to room/board with other SMAPPIES or just meet up at the venue?

I can't think of any other's at the moment? Got some, share them! Sometimes (more like always!) things slip my mind! All I know to really remember is to bring MUCH BIGGER suitcases!

GASP! The hero movie! I totally forgot! YES! This will so work out, but I gotta be honest Yanie, if I carry a Matsu/Takuya fan, I will have on the back of the same fan, Shizuka/Takuya! :bonk: Watch other SMAP fans be upset? :bow:

NOOOOOOOOOOO. Bad luck!? I don't think so! I fear there would be no concert, but I don't see why not? My fear is that they will skip an album this year and just throw out some best of collection and thus, no tour. Only because of all the singles that came out last year and the fact that bang!bang!bakansu isn't on an album.
