Purchasing Concert Tickets

[applesauce]

Hi there!
I am planning a trip to Japan next summer and would like to catch a few concerts (if at all possible)...
However, I am not quite sure where you can purchase the concert tickets online...
I've already checked out the websites for Tokyo Dome, Metropolis Tokyo... but I did not find what I was looking for.
I am interested in jrock, classical, and jpop... My japanese is quite horrible... thus making it difficult to comprehend japanese websites..

Can anyone please give me advices as to where I am able to purchase the tickets? Is it possible to purchase online? If not, will I still be able to buy the tickets when I am in Japan, or would that be too late?

Thank you very much! Any help is greatly appreciated!

Are you interested in amature club events? Or big events like, when Chemical Brothers comes to town or something?

What are the age requirements for entering a club?

Basically no regulation, but if it is a gig starting after 10pm, you must be 18 yrs old or older.

Yeah, no regulation really. I have never seen anyone be carded in my life here.

Ah, good then, I should be fine

...And sorry to bother...but where exactly can you find these clubs?

Pick up one of the gaijin magazines when you get to Tokyo.

JapanZine... Metropolis are big ones in Tokyo. Also get the guidebook "Time Out - Tokyo" They have great listings.

Thank you!

So instead of purchasing online (if at all possible), I should buy the tickets when I am in Japan?
