Since BK is going to be nice and play the US again I think that all US BK-haters should take a vacation from pointing out their funny appearance, low sales and old ages (for idols) and instead try considering them as flawless idols (at least until after the concert).

ive been to New Jersey. you don't want to walk around or drive at night time. you dont want to get lost especially. there is nothing to see.

[SakuraTheShadow]

Oh, is it dangerous?
And I wonder what Berryz will do for sight-seeing since I hear there's really nothing to see in New Jersey.

New York

[boinsie]

New Jersey's an entire state, y'all. It can't all be that terrible. ^^;
The population of the city the convention is in is only 23,040. I can't imagine that there will be an insane pollution problem.

[DARC1993]

i want to gooooo !!!
im willing to share a room! if anyone is interested.

[sb]

Well I'm going. New Jersey's alot closer to me than Seattle was so driving is an option, which will save some cash.

I already can't wait to wait in lines for autographs and such!

[Pavlova]

.. SB!

Darc, I'm willing to share a room.

Also, I personally don't think NJ is ugly, or dangerous, or smelly o.O I've been pretty often too. Oh well.

I hope enough people will come since I couldn't attend AX or SakuraCon and I sort of want to meet everyone too ^^;

Somerset, NJ is part of the New York-to-Washington DC megalopolis that lines I-95 (also known in that area as the New Jersey Turnpike), so yeah, it's that bad. All of the industry, warehousing, and working-class housing that can't actually fit into the major cities get shoved out there along I-95. And to get to Somerset from Newark Airport — which is where you'll fly into for this convention — you must drive past a HUGE oil depot.

I'd say it's equivalent to Chiba, which is where a lot of Tokyo's industry has been located, but I don't imagine the girls spend a lot of time in Chiba.

The nicer parts of New Jersey are much farther south, between I-95 and the coast.

I am curious if any of them watch Jersey Shore One of the japanese girls from my school in Japan wrote Jersey Shore on a test instead of New Jersey
