10th a-nation tour includes AKB48 alongside top Avex artists

Posted on April 21, 2011 by tokyograph

Avex held a press conference today to announce details for this year’s a-nation tour, which will proceed despite the effects of the earthquake in the Tohoku region. This will be the 10th time that the annual tour has been held, and its full name has been set as “a-nation 10th Anniversary for Life: Charge & Go! Weider in Jelly.”

While the expected Avex artists such as Hamasaki Ayumi and Koda Kumi are participating, this year’s lineup also includes idol group AKB48 for the first time. While AKB48 is not signed under Avex, their recently formed sub-unit DiVA is making its debut under Avex later this month.

The artists that were announced today are:

TRF
Every Little Thing
Hamasaki Ayumi
Do As Infinity
Koda Kumi
Suzuki Ami
AAA
Goto Maki
GIRL NEXT DOOR
ICONIQ
mihimaru GT
SEAMO
AKB48
3rd Generation J Soul Brothers

The tour will consist of 7 shows at 5 venues, starting with Ehime (July 30), then Fukuoka (August 6), Aichi (August 13), Osaka (August 20-21), and Tokyo (August 27-28).

Tickets will be sold for 7,900 yen, with 100 yen of the price being donated to charity. In consideration of the power shortages caused by the earthquake and tsunami, Avex will be preparing power supply trucks at the venues. The company also plans to make the Tokyo concert on August 28 available for “free public viewing” at Ito Yokado shops in the tsunami-stricken areas.

In addition, Avex will sell goods bearing the logo “for Life,” and auction off items like the artists’ stage outfits. Part of the proceeds will be donated to charity.

Killer line-up this year. No Aichin though, due to her recent child birth.

More than a 1000 AKB48 items on eBay! I remember when there were just 26

I have a doubt.

You all probably know that Haruna, Yuko and Mariko performed Yuuwaku no garter in Yokohama arena:

The thing is that I found the same live but with another cameras:

Where is the second one from?

If I remember right (no guarantees at all with this), there was a version of Yuuwaku included on the DVD of GAGAGA. ~~Double checking now..~~

Edit: Yup..it was there indeed

Quote from: BarrieV on October 16, 2010, 11:11:51 AM

DVD content changed:

Type A:
- Yuuwaku no Garter (Oshima, Kojima, Shinoda Live in YOKOHAMA ARENA)
- SDN48 CD Debut Congratulations Comment from AKB48 (part 1/2)

Type B:
- Recording MV & Song Recording
- SDN48 CD Debut Congratulations Comment from AKB48 (part 2/2)

So they removed "Major Debut no Kiseki" and added some AKB48

OMG someone uploaded Beginner's PV (Original Version) on youtube!!

Anariel · « **Reply #2852 on:** May 21, 2011, 01:11:34 PM »

It was banned by Aki-p because of cheap CG.

Hi guys! I'm new at jphip and a new fan of AKB48. Tell me, where should I start? What do I watch, listen, or download, and where?

jafeijai · « **Reply #2856 on:** June 01, 2011, 04:13:28 AM »

^ First off, welcome to JPH!P

To be honest, I suggest just finding anything you can find and just taking it easy; this fandom can get pretty big quite fast so it's good to take it at your own pace. The more 'senior' fans would probably have better suggestions than this though (I consider myself one of the 'newer' fans as it is)

winner · « **Reply #2857 on:** June 01, 2011, 06:01:45 AM »

^^ welcome to JPH!P jackcole. I'm newer than jaf.

First thing you should do is read the Code of Conduct and remove that 3MB avatar so it doesn't slow everybody's forum browsing.

You probably already have AKB48 members you want to know more about. Then the first thing you should now do is find your oshi member's thread of course.

After that, just browse all over the place and have fun.

^Here's one of the commercials for it. Both are posted on the official site there, at any rate.
