She dissappointed me with the 2006 calendar.

I'm buying one when it's not on pre-order it's another $9 to send for it if you pre-order it.

all 2007 calendars are 10% off on yesasia~~ right now I think..

^ Hm? really o.O that would be surprising

Neat ^^ thanks for the info. I am considering of buying a calendar.

It's $9 extra for pre-order on yesasia.

I wonder how the cover will look like. Hopefully better than 2006's. That one was...

I guess the extra 9 dollars on pre-order cancels out the 10% off... clever but I'm not falling for it! I wanna see the pics before I order anyways :yes

It was Hawaii. LOL

I think that this year's will be.. just as.. crazy. XDD

I don't know if it's the riht place to post this but they updated her website and i followed the link and found this if someone can read it it'll be great ^^

It's TeamAyu info. I think it's privileges and stuff.

if I saw Ayu at a Madonna concert I'd just..faint lol.

Anyone know where the 2004 calendar was shot?

Miami confirmed:

http://www.miamitodaynews.com/news/061005/filming.shtml

My limited English makes me not understand what that page is actually listing up, I understand the part about Hamasaki taking B12 still pictures, but what is it that page actually lists? All famous people who made photoshoots in Miami during a certain period?

Thanks for the information, how was that dug up by the way?

It's a list of all the filming licenses issued by the local authorities. "B12 PICTURES. Los Angeles." is the company who the license was issued to.

Ah, I got a bit confused there with B2 and B12, I feel stupid, was thinking about that she was taking B2 pictures for her calendar and mixed it with B12.

I'll blame it on just having got up from bed.

Thank you for the explanation, was it known since previously that she was shooting in Miami? Just wondering why it seems someone kept an eye on this page.

I'm just curious to see the cover now... it's taking too long to be revealed.

It'll be revealed by next week I bet since the calendar comes out 11/4.. :p

I hope since it's so frustrating seeing other artists's covers and not Ayu's

^and other artist's PVs, singles release dates, covers and performances, when JEWEL appeared much earlier :(

I think Ayu's taking a big break this year, rather than what she's used to doing..

Next year will be different, I hope.

I hope by next year we're more used to it, because maybe this means higher quality music :D

I don't think the quality's gone down.

I think it's just less fan-friendly music than usual. LOL. By no means is the music she's been releasing 'low quality'.

At least she is taking a BREAK..but qquite untimely coz of the competition...but she should relax, enjoy then return BBOOM!

I don't know if she's taking a break... this year has been as full of things to do as ever.

Starting the year wth a brand new album then she had to start working on AT06, then releasing Startin'/Born To Be... and then AT06 had it's start. During AT06 she promotes another single and when AT06 ends there's not much time left for a-nation '06, which she probably started rehearsing for pretty early. a-nation ended not that long time ago, and since then she's been working on promotion campaigns, her new single and photoshoots, going to Miami... she just returned home. And not her schedule has new TV performances and magazine shoots... will she ever have rest?

So I hear it WAS shot in Miami. Just my luck :( Oh well, when scans come in I'll go take pics in the locations and give you all some info on where she was in each pic.

^That does sound awesome, now I'm actually looking forward to the calendar :).

The Fanclub extra for calendars is so lame usually >>

Is that an extra? Is it postcards? Looks good though.

^lol, that's a crappy extra :laugh

Postcards rock, I think ... :/

They're great with the A BEST Korean version. Postcards have a nice size and they look nice. Perfect to put on your wall, not hugely oversized like posters :P.

Well if I'd have to pay a lot to be part of TeamAyu I would expect something more than those D: they look like.. nothing :shrug

Well, you don't pay to be in TeamAyu for the extras, you pay for the montly magazines, the members card and access to the page... and in front of all, pre-ordering concert tickets <3.

ye I know :P I would sell my sister if I could join TA ;_;

Yep, the pre-ordering is the best part!! And the best seats are usually awarded to TA members (lottery system). That's how I got to be in first row at AT06!! Yeah, the extras that were posted are not post-card size. THey're wallet sized!! And they were given to us because that year it took longer than usual to get the calendar. Plus TA members usually get an extra page to their calendar... but the picture isn't usually that nice.

You are one of the most lucky persons I've met online, ever

:thud

Oh. I get it. Is the TeamAyu page all organized and stuff?

Do you mean the Team Ayu webpage? If so, yeah, it is. There are different sections: Information (latest releases, etc.), Photos, Diary (usually a short movie), Ayu's messages (she hasn't written since June 21st, argh!), Mr. Kaz's messages, discography and downloads (nothing much there either). I like it.

Thanks for all the insider information yatsu.

Let's hope she writes soon.
