I'm just going to sit here in Adelaide secretly judging all you east coasters.

 I want to... does that count? (not that I could... =_=) *sigh*

I'm almost home! I'll be back in Sydney after the 16th of Feb - ShizukaSakura, if you're still around, I'll see you at UTS club events? XDDD Anyone is welcome to come along~

Scandal fan from Sydney here - just thought I'ld put it out there and say hello to all the local fans.

How are you doing?

I know I'm not really in the Sydney region but close enough.

@bleachnlife How's things? Wollongong is close enough. Didn't really expect many local fans, surprised this got to eight pages.

LOL it took awhile. But I wasn't really part of it.

Things are getting stressful well its the HSC I can't expect less. =_= *sigh*

The actual exam is at the end of the year right? Guess mid way through the year is when you start prepping up for it.  I can't remember much as it was such a long time ago for me but good luck.

Heeey, so I know this for people in NSW but this is practically the only topic that has something to do with Australian SH members. 

I'm from across the ditch and wanted to know, is the anyone here that's in Canberra? Specifically in ANU? I'm going to studying there next year and just wanted to know if I'm fangirling alone or not ^^""

I'm not even from Sydney and I don't even know if anyone's still around in this thread, but hopefully everyone's okay! What's happened recently in Martin Place is just simply tragic.

It was quite a shock when I first heard about it as I don't work within the CBD but heard through other workers.  The initial thoughts were always that someone must have been joking etc but it does finally sink in that it is real and really is happening.  We have been fairly lucky here compared to other places. But what about Paris.... that was bad and I really feel for them.

Yoooo just updating. This page still alive? Sydneysiders, you all alive? Haha.

I've got some ideas for some upcoming live shows, mainly at UTS but also UNSW at the end of year!

I don't think anyone really checks this thread anymore lol.

^LOL Only if someone says something. Which most of us don't...

Weiiirdly, I met someone at work and we were talking about this thread a few weeks ago.

We are a quiet lot here lol.

You don't say....

Hey so how many scandal fans is base Australia And any from New Zealand???

I'm trying to get them across this side of the world. But need to know wether there'll be a market or not. If anyone going to attend or not as well.

One thing is it won't be this year as the girl schedule are pretty full on with the world tour.

I'm not sure, like we exist but I don't think many know about SCANDAL Heaven hence the demographics here are abit skewed. However there exposure to SCANDAL through SBS Popasia and anime so there's certainly alot of people that watch those. No doubt there should be a considerable amount of people who at least 'know' SCANDAL or maybe abit of a  fan or are hardcore fans in this country and New Zealand. Maybe we should try and make a group for just Australian and New Zealand SCANDAL group on Facebook and see how many people we get.

If they ever come its probably going to be next year at the very least, as you said they are quite packed for 2015.

^^True; I've known a few people to turn their heads when I play Shoujo S, ShunSen or Harukaze because of the anime influence. I reckon that if the girls would pop by, it'd probably because of an anime con or some sort of Japan festival... There's the possibility of Soundwave next year too but then again, they pretty much only invite English-speaking acts (I'm counting in Crossfaith, Coldrain and ONE OK ROCK to that english-speaking list lol). But eh who knows, maybe SBS popasia might sponsor them or something since they've said quite a few times that SCANDAL is widely requested. 

P.S., maybe this thread should also be more inclusive and just be called Australian or Australian/New Zealand fans then lol?

What is sbs pop asia? A TV show or live events?

Its like MTV session for Asian pop on SBS.

As you said, as much as I would love to see them here, I don't think they have a big enough following for anything but an anime con etc and unfortunately for us (and good for them), I think they are a just a tad bit big to be just heading to anime cons anymore.

I'ld be very happy to eat any of those words if they came though... seriously, I'ld print it all out and eat it if they decide to tour here for any reason  .please.

Their Chicago show on the HELLO WORLD tour is part of Anime Central. So don't give up hope!
