Its better that she does 10 or 20 max dates spread over a few months than 60 which is crazy considering her condition...I wish her team didn't seem like such yes people and stood up to her.

at the worst, she must plan to have another tour for her 20th anniversary........which is next year.

"You aren't healthy no tour for you this year!"
"Ok, you are fired"

:P

She is a 40 years old woman with more info about her condition than any of us will ever have. There's not much point in saying what she should or shouldn't do.

OMG lol please don't give her ideas xD

Completely off topic but I do love that in a dark, stressful time I can read posts with something funny and it makes me laugh :love

Exactly my thoughts. People think they know all about her health. While she may have shared a lot of her life, it doesn't mean we have any idea of things like health.
About her tour, we will see. I expect shorter setlist but that's fine with me.

title 'Just the beginning' sounds quite desperate now...

"Just The Beginning" has another new dark meaning to us now.

^And songs like kanariya and Last Angel really add salt to the wound.

Reality hits Ayu hard. Real hard this time.

I dont know, more than anything I hope she will not be deaf. :cry :cry

I felt so sad when I read the infos about her health. It's such a devasting thing... and to see how she's willing to keep doing it and risking her hearing forever. I can't think about anything else but how strong Ayu is. Hope she can find a happy place no matter what happens to her. <3

And I feel like this tour will be very emotional! If I get the chance to watch the last chapter I'll be crying so much remembering how much this women is putting her health in risk just to keep us smiling and enjoying her art.

"I can hear it coming from far away
Very soon, do you see? The end is beginning."

How do you get tickets for the new dates?

I'm just now catching up with the recent news. I'm rather devastated.

If Ayu so is stubborn that she won't take break, she's only going to make things worse and she'll reach a stage where there's nothing left that can be done.

If the entire band and dancers mutiny and quit all at once, she can't tour--forcing her to save herself...well, from herself.

Frankly I'd rather see her take a break for a couple of *years* if that's what's needed, and then see how things progress from there, rather than seeing her continue and *guaranteeing* she's going to be completely deaf. *That's* not going to do anyone any good.

Ayu, please come to your senses.

But we don't know her diagnosis. What if her ear is already deafening and can't get better? Even with time and rest? And she continues to perform because she knows her time is limited and wants to do as much as she can? We can't tell her what to do and whats the best for her when we don't even know anything about it.

It's her choice to make, I think. All we can do is love her and support her.

I don't think there's anything anyone can do about her situation but herself. If she's happy with keep performin till go completely deaf than that's alright... And we know Ayu is hardworker af. She performed the DOME TOUR after have fell from a 2meter platform... She went from the hospital straight to the stage. Remember Premium CDL? She was in total pain there. Do I think it was very damaging to her body and health? Totally. But (unfortunately) we can't change anything about it. We just have to give her strength and good vibes to go tru this moment of her life. :(

where is this from?

^ count down lyrics

count down sounds fit this tour very well now....

Then why rush the inevitable? Whatever the diagnostic is, I can't imagine keeping to her schedule will do her any good.

But you're right, ultimately the decision is hers. I'd just hate to see her make her situation worse, for as long as there's actual hope it can be better. I do sincerely wish her the best.

oh I knew it talked about her hearing problem but I didn't remember the exact lyrics. thanks!
