There have been some interesting Kajiura tweets today.
Some details about the 3 themes, some that most of us already know. Some interesting things. Some potentially disappointing news to some people. And hints to the cover song.
Summarizing more than translating here.

6月のライブは日本語オンリー、サウンドトラックスペシャル、日本語封印とございますが。まあこの中で明らかに持ち曲として一番物理的に数が少ないのは日本語オンリー曲なので、日本語日のラインナップはある程度もう予想が付きますが。
The lives in June will be Japanese only, Soundtrack special and no-Japanese. But amongst the three, there is one where there is a very apparent, much smaller pool of songs to choose from. Which is the Japanese only songs. So it is probably already possible to sort of guess what the line up will be like.
This much was obvious. They will most likely perform most of the FJ singles. I believe here, she is probably referring to songs that are FJ's.

あくまで可能性として、今までと一番内容が変わるかな〜と思うのはやはりサウンドトラックスペシャルデーでございましょうかね……。
If we're just talking about the possibility, the day that can see the biggest changes to the lineup is probably the soundtrack special....

「サウンドトラックスペシャル」は基本インストゥルメンタル曲だと捉えて頂ければ。歌モノが聞きたい、歌姫にお会いになりたい方は、この日は避けられた方が懸命でございます。
Also, I think most already knew but Kajiura confirms that the chances of the utahimes performing on soundtrack special day is very very low. It's mostly for instrumental tracks. So those that want to meet the utahimes should go for the other two.

ここだけの（どこだけの？）話、前回「日本語オンリー、サウンドトラックスペシャル、日本語封印」と3日に分けてやった時のお申し込み頂いた倍率、3日でどう変わるのか自分でもちょっと興味を持っていたのですが。やはり日本語の日が高いのかな？とか。
……3日ともほぼ同じでした。正直サウンドトラックデーとか埋まらなかったどうしよう(^▽^;)。と思っていたのですが。それぞれ聞きたいと思って頂けるのは有り難い事でございます。いつもありがとうございますm(_ _)m。
Here she talks about the popularity of each day for vol 9, where she also split it into Japanese only, Soundtrack special and Japanese sealed. She, herself, was very curious about what the demand for each day would be like. She thought that Japanese day would be the most popular. She was worried that soundtrack day would have a lot of empty seats. Turns out, all three were more or less equally popular, and she is really grateful that there were those that would listen to each of those categories.

前回は3日だけでご迷惑もおかけ致しましたが！今回は3回×3あるから！きっと余裕！だと思う！
Previously, it was 3 days only and it caused a lot of inconvenience! (note: she is probably referring to the fact that a lot of people couldn't get tickets because demand was too high. It also resulted in them adding a special live)
This time it's 3 days x 3 times! Surely it'll be better this time!
Oh Kajiura. Do you not know? If you put out 6 lives in Tokyo, your fans in Tokyo will most likely still attend all 6! The most hardcore will attend all 9. Just as they attended all 3 the other time. However, the thing to note about this statement is that we are likely to see a similar lineup for each theme, as I had speculated.
Now.. about the cover song. Over these few days, Kajiura has been working on arranging songs. It seems to be multiple songs. Of course, there is a possibility that she is also working on Kalafina's budokan lives. She did write a really scary intro which she had to tone down. But! Today, she spoke about what is
undoubtedly probably a cover song. Is she arranging a very old BGM track?

滅多に使わないシンセブラスなので音決めが難しいなう。
「しんせぶらす」という音を探すのは……もう7〜8年ぶりかもしれない……と遠い目になる……いや、もっと？
むかしの曲なので、案外昔っぽい音源にしないとやっぱり合わない。あるいは思い切ってフレーズ全替えしちゃうか。それもなあ……。
It's hard to decide the sound to use for the synth brass (シンセブラス) since I seldom use it.
The last time I searched for a sound called "synth brass" was ... perhaps 7-8 years ago ... No. Perhaps more?
It's a sound from back then so, unexpectedly, if I don't make the source sound feel like an oldie then it just doesn't fit (as well). Or perhaps I should just change the entire phrase? That in itself is ....
*She does mention KORG in her tweets which seems to be a company that manufactures instruments. So specifically synth brass from a KORG keyboard?
This is where she realises that what she said might be spoilerish and stops. OK. My fellow detectives. Time to start hunting for her songs that had the synth brass.
Is it 千夜一夜? Edge?! I don't knowwwwwwwwww
11pm I think:
2015年1月17日（土）12:00～1月22日（木）23:00
I tried using the code of the first 3 digits of my travel agent's postal code and my old membership number at
http://l-tike.com/fjc-7th0123/ , but that didn't work. My membership had been renewed after lapsing but I hadn't received any details of a changed membership number.
Upon renewal after lapsing, it is likely you have been assigned a new number. Even just losing the card and asking for it to be reissued will get you a new number. Is there no way to find out? Maybe you can try your luck at the general sales?
