Will they add shows? and how it affects travel plans!!

Mme. H · 07-05-2010, 09:00 AM

At this point, while there's still good time for a while, to plan travel arrangements to VAMPS, before it's too close to time, and the prices skyrocket,...

Will our heroes lay on more shows or signings or appearances, in the U.S. or elsewhere??

Lovely, dear VAMPS, you know we'll come to you, if only we know where and when, in time to plan for it and afford it.

Please ease our cravings (You know what it is to crave something very badly, don't you? :) and add a bit to your tour?

My selfish request, to see you in Seattle!

What do you think? Will they expand their tour, and if so, will they do it soon enough for you to plan?

If I could fly across the sky like that far away bird,
I'd always tell you of my great love for you
Because I always feel you in me.

No, they won't expand the tour I believe, unfortunately =(

Wish I could go also to US, but for now I'm only sure about my Chile's travel

I do think they may add one date in the US tour, since there is still a gap between sf and ny. I wonder if they will just have a free week or maybe plan something else. but it seems weird they are willing to give away 5 days.

I highly doubt they'll be adding any more dates. It just seems unlikely to me at this point. Although they did announce the final party in Hawaii not long before the Baltimore show, but that, at least from what I'd heard, was hardly worth the money unless you were a HYDEIST member.

Well, you have to account for travel time and potential unexpected delays. Since they have more locations to go to, they probably have to book more flights than usual this year. So they're probably going to end up using the cheapest and most cost-effective means of transfer for inner-state (and for Europe, inter-continent) travel.

Yeah, but I doubt they will drive from one coast to the other x_x regardless of how cost effective it could be they will be tired. I don't care if they do another show or not. But what it seemed like was that they were waiting for tickets to sold out so they would announce the other show (or not). What I do hope for, is that they rest! ^_^ And if by any means they do have something else planned they would let us know before is too late to change plans. Hawaii was just insane, short notice and expensive. Like you said not worth it. Not even for Hydeist x_x the package was over $2k.. x_X Icon_blaugh

I hoped they would but now don't think so ;___;

There's only 4 days between SF & NYC now (cause of the NYC Q&A) which is still enough time for one more show I guess but I think it's kinda getting late to add shows o_o Why would they wait so long to announce ONE show? xD

When we entered the karaoke contest we had to select which show we would want to meet VAMPS at if we won, so if they added a date it would be the only one that wasn't an option...

I don't think they'll add signings either, just the karaoke contest winners will get signings. ;_;

idk I thought Hawaii was worth it XD I was stuck in the back yeah..honestly I was pretty pissed about that. ( there was even SPACE to fit more people towards the front, but there was this stupid bar blocking the people. GRRRR I mean really, we all flew to freakin HAWAII to see them. I think that says enough, is it really necessary to make sections.. *sighs* I should of just jumped it XD ) ANYWAY the "area" was so small I still felt close...
and I got to hear SHALLOW SLEEP. that's priceless to me T T
I also made some really good friends :)

EDIT
^ I take back my statement, I did not know they paid $2,000 for that package o.O they deserve their section if they did XD though they did get a lot for that money. I think it included ticket, hotel, airfare to and from Hawaii... some other stuff I probably don't know. And the next morning they got a brunch thing, it was kinda like a party I think, and they aired footage from the concert...
But that's still a lot of money #_# I didn't even pay half that...

On topic ^^ I don't think they'll add any more shows either :/ I really want them to though XD
the gap between concerts may be because of the New York Anime Festival too. I think they like to hold concerts with conventions. and they're doing that panel now...

Hmm....as much as it would be cool to have another show, I don't there will be one. They've got all their promotional graphics geared toward the three shows in the U.S. and I think it might be too late to book another venue. Unless, they want to "surprise" us like they did with Hawai'i last year. But then again, they already knew about it long beforehand, as did much of the Japanese fans. They just got the word out too late and thus, U.S. fans got kinda' screwed when it came to getting tickets. At least, from what I remember that's what happened, correct me if I'm wrong. The 4 day break in between shows could be reserved for photo shoots, filming, and some time to relax before heading off to Europe.

But yeah....I hope VAMPS'll prove me wrong. ;)

Let's just remember that tours like these aren't cheap...and correct me if I'm wrong but I think that they are one of the VERY few Japanese bands who dared to make a world tour like this. And they deserve to do some road trip through the US and find inspiration for new songs...maybe those who won't have the chance to see them hanging around on a bus.
