Concert tickets?

Any tips on the where and how to of buying concert tickets? My eldest daughter really wants to go see Mrs Green Apple live at some point and I've never actually been to a concert here - well not that type of concert. And the only concerts I've looked up before are for the Red Hot Chili Peppers, because I knew exactly where and when that concert was going to be (ended up not buying, long story!) and that was a long time ago.

    Just following up on this, I had a look at the Mrs Green Apple site: https://mrsgreenapple.com/schedule/list/2024/10/?cat=L_ALL,live02,live03,live04,live06,live05,live08 They are playing some live shows in October at K-Arena in Yokohama. There is a contact listed (SOGO TOKYO 03-3405-9999) so maybe they can provide some info about how to get tickets on that number!

    I always have just bought through Lawson, but the last concert I went to was a while ago. @yokolostinjapan goes to a lot of concerts and might be able to help, I don't know how frequently she blogs on here any more so I don't know if she will see this notification though!

    It is kinda different for every band so you have to check their website on how they sell their tickets. Some sell only online, some you can get at the convenience store, some are lottery and some a first-come-first-serve.

What are you watching and where are you watching it!?

For many years I have been a member of Amazon Prime. I signed up to and pay for it for the "free" delivery and I like that much of Prime TV is then "free" too. However, in recent years, Prime TV hasn't been great. So I now pay for Netflix monthly and I find it very reasonably priced. But its not always easy to pick what to watch! What are you watching, where are you watching it and would you recommend it?

Grocery budget 2024?

How are you managing your grocery budget, for a single or a family? I'm finding my buying power for a single is diminishing, but I'm doing okay, cooking nearly all my meals and dining out infrequently. After going over my receipts, I'm still averaging 30,000 yen a month on groceries. For reference, I'm well outside Tokyo in a Chiba suburb. Have you had to change your grocery budget considering the rising prices?

Japanese YouTube channels for interesting topics?

Are you listening and watching Japanese YouTubers who present interesting and quality content? I'm hooked on world traveler Bappa Shota, who treats global issues with great sensitivity. Although he appears to speak a few different languages, most of his narration is in Japanese. Which Japanese YouTubers do you recommend for interesting and insightful content?

Do you have a My Number card?

I never got one - long story, possibly for a blog post! But I am just curious did you get one? From March you can use a My Number card as a driver's license. This interests me so I am now considering getting one. Pros / cons?
