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.

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!

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!

"Pocket money" sites?

With Christmas under 100 days away, it's a time of year where I really try to increase any extra earnings I can make for my household -- obviously there's a lot more outgoing expenses for those of us that celebrate at the tail end of the year. Back when I was a university student in my home country, there were lots of different market research survey sites where you could earn a bit of extra cash and be paid either via direct deposit to your bank account or with gift cards for supermarkets and the like. Does anyone know of any similar sites like that here? Obviously I'm not expecting tons of cash from any of them, but hey -- anything extra helps!

Christmas/New Year travel spots?

I wrote a blog yesterday on how Tokyo was named the top-searched travel destination for Christmas and New Year's travel by Google for this year. I love Tokyo, of course, and it was my home for several years before moving to Niigata – but I wanted to ask the rest of you about your favorite domestic spots for the festive season. Any places that give you the warm and fuzzy Christmas feelings? Perhaps places with great Christmas markets, illuminations, or anything of that nature would be good suggestions. With so much focus on the big three (Tokyo, Osaka, and Kyoto) it would be great to get some recommendations outside those places if you have any!
