FictionJunction Yuki Kajiura LIVE vol.#11 / elemental Tour 2014 - Taiwan

source
The FictionJunction Club just announced that Kajiura Yuki and FictionJunction will be going to Taiwan as part of the "elemental" Tour.

Ahhhhh... lucky Taiwanese fans.

I am sad... no Singapore again.

Have fun Taiwanese fans.... happy for you guys... but can't help feeling that sometimes it sucks to live in South East Asia... compared to Taiwan and HK... we get much fewer Japanese acts and anime screenings. :(

I'm not having the best day at work too... I think I'm going to sulk for a while. :(

I understand that feeling. I booked tickets to Japan last year on impulse to attend Kajifes 2013, and it was worth every cent! Hope to see them in sg some time too.

AHHHHHHH!!!!! You went to Kajifes 2013??!?!? I am SOOOOOOOO envious!!!!

I really wanted to go but I was already committed to making a huge trip in October and I couldn't back out of it without pissing a couple of people off. :( sniff... :(

I really want to see them live again... both Kajiura Yuki / FictionJunction and Kalafina.

Let's keep our fingers crossed real hard that they would come. :)

hahah don't worry, they have performances every year. Only problem is you gotta get a contact in Japan to collect the tickets on your behalf. I was lucky to have a friend studying in Tokyo then.

Yeah would definitely like to see another huge extravagenza like Kajifes. Oh well there's always Blu-Ray of their concerts to tide things over lol

Thanks Wei Hao... :)

Yeah... I know they have several performances every year ... but I am greedy!!!! :P

I've actually been to Japan to see both Kalafina and Yuki Kajiura / FictionJunction live.

My very first Kalafina live was the Kagayaku Sora No Shijima Ni Wa in 2010. And then I saw them live again in 2011 at the After Eden Special Live and the "to the beginning" Live in 2012.

I also saw Kajiura Yuki / Fictionjunction live twice in 2012. I attended the Vol. 8 and Vol. 9 lives but I was only able to get tickets for Day 1... so I was a little sad about that.

Aside from seeing Kalafina live at AFA in Singapore in 2011. I also went to Malaysia to see them live at AFAMY in 2012

Last year, I could only afford one trip and since I was unable to make it coincide with any of the Kalafina or Kajiura Yuki/FictionJunction lives, I was not able to see either one of them live in 2013.... soooooo sad....

I'm a bit crazy. :P

For us fans who don't live in Japan, seeing them live gets really expensive and this year is a year of saving for me. And it's unlikely that I will be able to go to Japan any time soon. *sniff

You're right... luckily there are the BD and DVDs of their lives... makes it easier. :D

I'm really lucky... I have a friend who is a member of the FictionJunction Fanclub. So if I need concert tickets, I usually will approach her and ask her to help me out with those. You're right, it's a huge pain and will cost more to get those tickets if you don't know someone living in Japan.

Sorry... I am very long winded... I tend to ramble on and on when I talk about Kajiura Yuki and her vocal projects. :P

I'll shut up now. :P

cheers

haha wow ok, Kajifes was my first time watching them live. Too bad I couldn't afford a 2nd trip in the same year to watch their Consolation lives.

I never really got into Kalafina / FictionJunction until i stumbled upon youtube videos of their lives like 2 years ago, and then I realised their lives were just as good as their recordings. Keiko is my fav cos of her unique voice haha.

Don't worry, I'm quite a huge fan of Yuki Kajiura's works too. Glad to have come across someone else like minded haha. I'll follow your blog and keep myself updated :) Catch you around again!

Keiko is my favourite too. :) I too love her unique voice. :)

I really love their lives, especially their one-man lives in Japan. I think I fall further in love with them with every live I attend. :P

Thanks for checking in on the blog... see you around!! :)

Hi, can i know to get the ticket for the live concert? i was aiming for the 20th April live vol#11 concert in NHK Tokyo

just me said...

Hi Michael,

Hmmmmm... I usually ask my friend in Japan to help me with the tickets. She is a FJC member. So I've been quite lucky, I've never had to do this myself.

I think that what most people do is that they use a proxy buyer to get their tickets for them. I can't recommend you any since I've not used one before. But I'll ask my friend at work who did use a proxy buyer recently and see who he recommends.

cheers
