You can wait, but why wait when you can buy the ticket while you register? One of the steps of registration is adding a ticket (or tickets, if you wanna see the Cosplay stuff, etc). You just pay for it all at once and you wont have to worry about getting it later.

Unless you reserve a hotel room in the Con Block (which is only one hotel at the moment, if I remember) and get a free ticket that way, it's best to just buy it with your registration.

Hope that makes sense

Holy shit, WHAT?!

Sooonk's gonna be there and they're having an audition?! That's freakin' hilarious. I'd love to see who will try out for that.

EPIC!! Someone cosplay as his flower!!!

lolWUT. Interesting news. I had a feeling he'd be coming, though, since this is MM's first journey into the continental United States.

Though AX idol doesn't interest me very much. Might go if it's possible to get in and there's nothing else to do at that time. MM and fun with Rena come first.

ichijoujirena · « **Reply #306 on:** April 16, 2009, 04:13:58 AM »

Oh. My. Gosh.

I really hope he doesn't have plans to add an American member. Like...seriously.

But other than the thought of that, cool! I prolly wont go to AX Idol, it's not really my thing, and I'd rather focus on the girls.

Datalanche and me are traveling from Texas and it's about $200 a person for round trip plane tickets. Hotel..I'm not sure, but it was around $120 a night, I think.

There are a few people looking for others to room with (A few posted on the previous page, I believe), so maybe you could talk to them, but yeah..it seems like most of the JPH!P crew is gonna be staying at a cheaper hotel, which is a good idea if you are looking to save money/share a room with someone.

Airfare went up $40 overnight so I went ahead and booked my flight just now. No going back! JPH!P 4 Life! World Tour 2009, BAY-BEE! This shit is gonna be epic, Momusu AND Soonk! I can hardly contain my excitement!

That's fucking INSANE!

Quick! Someone who's kind of bad at singing, but pretty cute and dammit tries her best audition!

Another at the O, nice! That's where me and rena are staying. Looking at the AX forums, it seems a lot of con goers will be staying at this hotel. The location is GREAT. Only drawback is the rooms are a bit small and only have one bed, but if you can live with that, it's a great spot.

Oh yeah there's totally gonna be a Cali Musume. He'll do like Super girl and Heike and add the losers to Morning Musume lol

I seriously doubt that though but it's pretty funny.

Kinky.

Yea, don't need a large room. Just by myself so one bed is fine. Most of my time will (I hope) be out anyways. Hmm, gotta be more wary around the non-jphip AX attendees.

when I saw that Tsunku was coming..I was in shock

I wonder if we could at least get an autograph or ask a question or so..I might go see this just to say that I saw him

so the question is: any takers?

zakdl · « **Reply #319 on:** April 19, 2009, 04:46:22 PM »
