In July, Ladybaby will perform the third gig in their popular “two-man” live series. Each of these shows has Ladybaby and one other artist perform a long setlist and occasional collaboration pieces. This time the opening set will be the duo Bed In with their slick 80’s style music and desperately over-sexed comedy personas. The Ladybaby girls know Bed In and Rei at least seems to be a closet fan, so the gig should be funny, maybe even a little risque if they chose to do a collaboration…
When: July 23rd 2017. Doors Open: 16:30. Start: 17:00.
Where: Shibuya, Tsutaya O-West, Tokyo (map)
Tickets: 4000 yen, plus an additional 500 yen for a drink ticket on entry.
Entry will probably be by ticket number (ask people in the queue their number to find your place).
As long as the show doesn’t sell out in advance, then tickets will be available at the venue on the day. Get them early since the last show sold out of day tickets by midday.
Advance tickets are available at Lawson Ticket. This site is in Japanese, but it is usable with automatic translation (I use Chrome) and accepts foreign credit cards. To register you need a Japanese address – use any address (e.g. address of a hotel) written in Japanese – don’t worry you won’t use it. Enter your normal mobile number, it is needed to pick up tickets. IMPORTANT: When ordering the ticket select “Collection over the counter” instead of delivery. After paying you get a page with a code number and your mobile number. Take a memo or print it out. When in Japan, use a “Loppi” machine in a Lawson store to select the tickets – you type in the numbers you got when ordering and it gives you a slip. Hand over the slip at the counter and you will get your tickets.
If you won’t have anyone who can read Japanese with you in Japan then make sure you read up on which options to select on the Loppi machine before ordering. See this page for more information (the advice about buying tickets is up-to-date and correct. The site also offers a proxy purchasing service but I cannot vouch for it as I have never used it).
