Live 8 concert, Chiba

On 2 July 2005, a Live 8 concert was held at Makuhari Messe, Chiba, Japan. The event is also referred to as "Live 8 Tokyo" or "Live 8 Japan". The concert was the first Live 8 show to start, because of Japan's earlier time zone. Attendance for the concert was at maximum capacity, but with only 10,000 people attending the show at the Makuhari Messe venue, it was one of the smallest to join the global series of events. (Note: Only 10,000 tickets were available via online lottery) Japan is the only Asian country in the G8, and the only Asian country that took part in Live 8.
