Has Hikki ever performed at Tokyo Dome?

You know you're highly respected in Japan if you've performed in Tokyo Dome...which brings up my question. I don't recall Hikki ever performing at Tokyo Dome, but we all know that she would effortlessly be able to sell it out.

If she hasn't performed there, why do you think that is?

Once I heard, I guess it was in "Ima no watashi" interview, that she didn't have that many concerts. And indeed, she didn't make a huge tour after every album (for example there was a few performances promoting Heart Station, but that was all - if I'm wrong, tell me). So I think she didn't pay big attention where she performed. BTW, I always thought that performing in Budokan is very important, I found out that a lot of concerts happened there... Anyways, Hikki is very well known in Japan, it desn't matter even if she hasn't sung in Tokyo Dome^^

She doesn't do much touring does she?
But doesn't like 50% of an artists revenue come from touring?
Or at least that's what I heard.

Given that you've wrote "Budokan" means it was held at the Nippon Budokan. 「日本武道館」 武道[budou] is martial arts 館[kan] means hall. Budokan is located at the central Tokyo. I've often heard before that it's quite an achievement for some artist if he/she had performed at the Budokan.

Hikki came from a privileged family to begin with. She doesn't really need to tour much. Her albums go #1 and multiplatinum. That's one reason why she was so frustrated with her US endeavors...she had to work much harder just to be heard in the American market.
