次は、虹色のグラデのパンツで上はなんかへそだしでキラキラしてました!!
最後はダメージジーンズにTシャツでした↑

メンバー紹介はJuly 1stの間奏でしました

最後に…
終始ノリノリだったなぁ～めちゃめちゃ楽しかったし!!!!!
浜崎あゆみの背が意外と小さかったことに驚いたかなぁ～

Most information salvaged from 2ch / Y!Jblogs.

I think this setlist might disappoint some.. (this is the one that many people posted.. I wonder if it'll change in the next 4 concerts)

Perhaps she does HANABI at the last few concerts.. 3 costumes! <3 (surprisingly, no STEP you?) I have recently read that SEASONS was performed..

I need to see more stuff D:

Edit: Wow.

んで結局セット順は

１ 倖田来未
２ AAA
３ 鈴木亜実
４ 東方神起
５ hitomi
６ mihimaru GT
７ Every Little Thing
８ ROAD OF MAJOR
９ T.M.Revolution
10 TRF
11 DJ OZMA
12 浜崎あゆみ

これでいいの？

... I find this very.. odd. D:


Edit: Fan observations from Kawaiikisses -


Japanese true fan report:
昨日、８月１２日
名古屋ポートメッセにて開催された
a-nation 2006に参加しました～

座席はＩで、真ん中よりやや後ろでした。

以下、ネタばれも含みますので、
楽しみにしてる方は、注意してください！！
では、本編でもあゆの部分を中心に書きますね


～本編～
①倖田くみ
　　意外にも、トップバッターでした。
　　一気に、会場が盛り上がりました～

この後、雨が降り出したので、
自分達は、室内に避難しました。
始まる前には、長蛇の列だったので、
避難してる間に、あゆのうちわ２枚と光るうちわ１枚を買いました～
今回のあゆのうちわは、めっちゃかわいいし
値段も500円とお手ごろのせいか、
会場の半分くらいの人が持ってるくらいでした！！

この間、AAA、hitomi、鈴木亜美、東方神起があったみたいです。
で、雨も上がり、再び会場へ

⑥mihimaru GT
⑦ＥＬＴ
⑧ロードオブメジャー
⑨Ｔ.Ｍ.Revolution
⑩ＴＲＦ
⑪ＤＪ　ＯＺＭＡ

と続き、いよいよおおとり、
あゆの番になりました～

⑫浜崎あゆみ
　　去年のカウントダウンでも流れた、
　　2000年～2006年までのライブ映像が、
　　スクリーンに流れ、あゆのステージは始まりました。

　（１）Startin'
　　　　　今年発売なんで、歌うと予想はしてましたが、
　　　　やっぱり、始まりにふさわしい曲ですね～

　（２）UNITE!
　　　　　会場が一体となって、踊りをしました！

オープニングで、盛り上がった後は、
バラードが二曲続きました。
　（３）SEASONS
　　　　　誰もが知ってる曲を、熱唱してくれました
　　　　　感激でした～

　（４）A song for XX
　　　　　ちょっと、予想してた分、かなりイントロを聞いた瞬間、
　　　　かなり嬉しかったです！！

で、今年もあゆ御輿ありました～
　（５）Fly high
　　　　　周りにつられ、柵ぎりぎりまで行き、
　　　　一瞬ですが、真近であゆを観れました(>_<)
　　　　やっぱり、めっちゃ可愛かったです～

ステージに戻り、
　（６）Independent
　　　　　自分の周りは、踊ってる人は少なかったんですが、
　　　　あゆと一緒に踊りました～

あっという間に、ラスト
　（７）BLUE BIRD
　　　　　最後は、夏らしい曲で、今年も終わりました～
　　　　会場がひとつになり、うちわを振り続けて、
　　　　楽しかったライブも修了しました！！

こんな感じで、もっと歌ってほしかったですが、
めちゃめちゃ、楽しかったです♪
うちわをたたきすぎて、マイストの光るうちわが、
壊れちゃったのが、ショックですけど(^^;)

残り、二会場に行かれる方は、
ぜひぜひ、盛り上がって最高の思い出にしてきてください！
　

I'm not dissapointed. I liked startin'. Greatful days is fun. She's singing Beautiful Fighters :luv2 Bold & Delicious is entertaining live. Boys & Girls as well as Trauma are classics. BLUE BIRD is summery and July 1st is the perfect summer song.

This setlist is okay.
I can't wait to see ayu perform her latest single songs.
wow it seems like ayu likes to perf bold & delicious alot.

1.Startin' = YAY
2.Greatful days = ehh
3.Beautiful Fighters = ooo
4.Bold&Delicious = xDDD
5.Boys&Girls = duh
6.Trauma = oooooo
7.BLUE BIRD = meeh
8.July 1st = meeeeeeeeeh

I hope this is the official one D:

Most likely it is.. but.. maybe.. I'll wait for some bloggers to confirm it, then I'll change accordingly. :]

01 Startin' (expected since it's one of her 2006 singles)
02 Greatful Days (summer song, fits perfectly)
03 Beautiful Fighters (it's from her latest single)
04 Bold & Delicious (did not expect this coming)
05 Boys & Girls (classic)
06 Trauma (classic)
07 BLUE BIRD (summer song and also from her latest single)
08 July 1st (from a summer single, and summer song)

Wow! 3 costume changes! I think she should add a ballad in there. Maybe either one of the HANABI's?

I think perhaps a ballad would come in the last performance or so.. since it's the last one..

I imagine that the tracklist might switch out one of the earlier songs for it.. :/ It's all upbeat! O_O;

Thanks a loooooot ^o^

1.Startin' = Not bad! Good opening song for her act
2.Greatful days = Meh. It's OK
3.Beautiful Fighters = OMG YAY.
4.Bold&Delicious = WOOOOO YAGADAWO!~ I hope the choir's there too :D
5.Boys&Girls = ... for the 13638th time ._. ... I guess it makes the crowd happy!
6.Trauma = meh. same as Boys&Girls
7.BLUE BIRD = Eh, its ok.
8.July 1st = again? erg..

where is the costume description?
by the way thanks for the setlist information

1.Startin' - i have expected that this one will be the opening
2.Greatful days - yay...love this song
3.Beautiful Fighters - cant wait to see this song live performance
4.Bold&Delicious - EH?! but this song ROCKS when it comes live
5.Boys&Girls - yeah...its a tradition
6.Trauma - lets dance!
7.BLUE BIRD - YAY!!! love this song
8.July 1st - A PERFECT CLOSING SONG FOR summer occation

I've only glanced over the Japanese so far, but it says she wears a white one piece for the first three songs. Maybe something like in the Beautiful Fighters video?

I actually really like this set list - so upbeat and nonstop. I'm most happy about Greatful Days because it hasn't been performed in quite a while and it's a fun song.

Yeah, SEASONS is performed according to this site.

http://chuspo.chunichi.co.jp/00/hou/..._____005.shtml

The tracklist is pretty good. It's very, very poppy though. Last year we had is this LOVE?, flower garden, and HANABI. This year is mostly upbeat pop. No ballads, no rock. Nothing to really show off her vocals.

Chyeah for Bold & Delicious.

I'm curious to hear BF live.

It's bound to change.. A lot of people are switching up their tracklists this year o_o
(AAA, KK-thing, etc)
Lots of single song changes.. etc.. there's still 4 more concerts to go!

That's where I read SEASONS was done at..

Awww, it'll be a fun and cute concert! :]
3 costume changes? Sweet.

I like the set list!

Yay! Beautiful Fighters!! But I really wish there were some ballads...

Supposedly, there was SEASONS as well..

I'm waiting for this person to update on 2ch, since they're listing all the songs/people who performed :3

1. Startin' Boring
2. Greatful days Cool
3. Beautiful Fighters Cool
4. Bold & Delicious Okay
5. Boys & Girls Obviously
6. Trauma Obviously
7. BLUE BIRD Boring
8. July 1st Obviously

I like how people are saying their thoughts in one word.. XDD

What's odd? o.o

She doesn't sing that many songs usually right? XDDD Oh well, I don't really mind a-nation anyway. XD

soon we'll get pictures of the outfits I can't wait....Ayu sure loves white though.

Koda isn't in the last few.. she's the first performer o_o

me too! I was expecting Koda to be 11.

hitomi deserves 9, I think. 9 sounds like her spot, to me...

where's ai otsuka? :0

Well, it's not like I want Koda to be far up LOL

Just odd. :p

hitomi .. I wonder why mihimaru is in front of her..

the tracklist is pretty good, except for boys and girls and truama...

This is funny.

I think this says something about how Koda had no people in her goods line XD And they all went to Ayu's..

Aww, I feel bad. but yay for ayu.

I love the setlist!oh yah...the reason that koda kumi was the first is because they need "artists" whom can make the whole audience HIGH at the beginning of the concert~So she was chosen(tt's just my opinion)~and they also need the same thing for the ending~so of course OUR AYU was chosen!!!And ayu can definately make the whole crowd HIGH!

Well, it's not always like this.. :/ Ami Suzuki was at the beginning last time..

It's not really unusual. You usually would want your strongest two to open and close the show.

I found it odd since they placed her usually closer towards the end of the other concerts..

Seems a bit sudden, hm?

well its different each year. Otsuka Ai opened it in 2004 with Pretty Voice.

Otsuka Ai didn't attend this show because she was most probably bogged down by Tokyo Friends The Movie Promotion. The movie premiered on the same date. 12th of August. :P

Every artist except Ami and Koda are going to miss a two/three days of a-nation.. [BoA is only attending two for some reason.. 8/20 and 8/27]


About that.. it's switched every concert D: I dunno why but they alter it a lot D: Ami was first at the first and second, and now Koda is first..

BoA always attends 2 each year.

Oh good! She performed SEASONS! A good summer ballad!

So does the order in which the artists perform matter? (Sorry, I don't really know much about a-nation summer festivals.)

01. Startin' = Saw that one coming. ^_^
02. Greatful days = I'm actually surprised.
03. Beautiful Fighters = YES. :yatta
04. Bold&Delicious = No...
05. Boys&Girls = Well, duh.
06. Trauma = Expected.
07. BLUE BIRD = Well they gotta have BLUE BIRD!
08. July 1st = Classic. :D
0?. SEASONS = I'm surprised it's not HANABI. But change is always good.
^^

Usually, they perform in order of popularity.

With the most recently debuted artists in the start, and the most popular, older artists more towards the end.

1. Startin' - Yuckness.
2. Greatful days - It's okay.
3. Beautiful Fighters - YAY!
4. Bold & Delicious - I like the song, but don't like it live.
5. Boys & Girls - Again.
6. Trauma - Again, but I think this song's more fun.
7. BLUE BIRD - Nothing special live, but it's expected.
8. July 1st - Didn't she do this one last year? Ugh.

Koda Kumi's first? That's nice. But why were they all in line for Ayu's goods? They weren't much better than anyone else's. >___>

They weren't released at all before the concert date [unless you count mu-mo..].. they were the last 'wave' of items to come out.

So basically, Ayu's items were in high demand, while the others could've easily been purchased online.

wow.. she started with Startin'! it must be full of energy! and i wanna see her Beautiful Fighters performance!!! surprisingly STEP you wasnt performed.

also Kumi's goods Sucked they weren't interesting

haha koda kumi is first...anyway--i like the song list :) i cant wait to see gratful days and i hope she does perform a ballad sometime tho, i would love if SEASONS really is? haha thanks~

you mean you didnt like the thongs? :rolleyes

She has 3cm-body-covering panties, a bag, some stuff, other stuff, and yeah.

I don't think they were that appealing to the audiences..

Hey everyone! I went to the a-nation concert in nagoya =)!!

I gotta say that is order list is correct!! Koda kumi was the concert opener and she was really good and it shocked everyone in the concert! I think they kinda change the order for each town..depending which artists show up since there was no boa or otsuka ai in the nagoya concert..Ayu goods was soooo popular in the concert..when the concert ended almost all her goods were sold out..thank god i got mine before it started..i gotta say the most popular item was the ayu fan..almost everyone had one..and then the a-nation fan..also most people had the ayu towel..the smaller one..i took only two pics in the concert which was in the goods areas which shows that most of her goods were sold out lol..not many people bought koda kumi stuff(they didnt look that nice..however lots of people bought 4 hot wave =)!!!) but i saw some kumi towels..i will upload the pics after i come back from japan in 3 weeks..ok let me cut to the details of ayus part of the concert!! I will also show pics of the goods i got hehehe..oh ya btw the set list is wrong..I sat somewhere near the back of the middle section so i just saw the bodies fine but not the face hehee..which is good since i got my ticket from family mart hahaha..

1. Opening..they played that ayu chant song like they do in every concert and showed clips of ayu of previous concerts..i was going so crazy and taping my a-nation fan so hard it broke hahaha..getting to excited for ayu!! and then the first song was startin'..which shocked me for some reason..she was wearing this short shiny silver dress with a bit of black stripes i think..and the dance kinda reminded me of most of her startin' performances and kinda like step you from the countdown 05

2. They played unite! straight afterwards..that put a lot of energy in the crowd and i started to do the unite! dance!! she was wearing the same dress and she started to do the unite dance..the performance is very similar to any other unite! song..

3. The stage went dark..that means costume change..and they showed more clips again..some people yelled ayu in the crowd..like me haha..then she popped up wearing this long white flowy dress thing with sleaves and started to sing seasons and people love this song of course and kinda chanted along..and waving the fans slowly..

4. The next song was ..this was very shocking..A song for XX..i think it was like the newer version from A Ballads..i loved this song..my fav karaoke song..and she sang with lots of emotion..no crying though lol..

5. Another costume change..she changed into the ayu concert t-shirt with shorts and white boots..and she went on this cart thingy..which goes around the concert area..and started to sing fly high(Im not a 100% sure that she sang this song..) okay this is the best part of the concert..okay the concert in nagoya..is like a open field..no seats or any area restricted like the one in tokyo so u can run wherever u want..so when ayu started to move around the audience..people went crazy and try to run up where ayu was comming..she was passing right through my section..so i ran quickly to the front and literally ayu was one meter away from me and i started to scream ayu like crazy ..but it only lasted for 10 seconds..she barely looked on my side though..but she did a bit....that is why i don`t really remember the song cause i was too busy tryin to chase ayu hahaa..this is soo much better than being in front row..oh ya i forgot to say that ayu's hair was like braided..

6. The song right after fly high on the cart thing was audience..which was good..

7. Now this is like the ending part of the concert..she was singing blue bird and doing her good-byes and stuff..and then left..

Overall..ayu;s part was good..(dont mind my bad typing since i cant stand japan's keyboard..)..her voice was better than i though live..she performed in the end..and ya there was no hanabi..however..i kinda notice a small number ppl left before ayu came on..but overall like everyone was there..she had a lot of energy in her part..however..i think DJ ozma and TRF had a higher energy level due to their songs..i think it was the perfect ending set..since it had the most enjoyable factor in the concert..if anyone is interested about the other perfomances i can talk about it in another thread..

Oh ya another thing i needed to point out..is that it was raining like mad in the nagoya performance for a period of time..i think after koda kumi(too bad u cant see her wet hahahaha) and AAA it started to rain..and when hitomi went on it rained like mad..but she was having soo much fun..but in the end of her time..the rain stopped..yay hitomi made the rain go away..afterwards it stopped raining for the rest of the performances..i had to use all my towels..to cover my goods from being wet..and my towels were soo soaked..

Ya that is all i gotta say..a-nation is a lot of fun..even if its 35C outside..and humid like crazy..and standing for 8 hours..its amazing..ayu goods sold like hotcakes..

Uhh im sorry..she didnt sing fly high..it was independent.ugh i dunno maybe it was fly high ..sorry i forgot..lol..i always mix up those songs..and yes she did sing audience..i already mention it..so the official order is

1.Startin'
2.Unite!
3.Seasons
4.A song for XX
5.Independent/fly high..im not sure which one she sang i really forgot
6.Audience
7.Blue Bird

You can post this in other forums as long as u give me credit lol

OMG LEMME POST THIS THANK YOU SO MUCH KAWAII KISSES <3 <3 <3

:love

Wow! Thanks for the review!

So:
01 Startin'
02 UNITE!
03 SEASONS
04 A Song for XX
05 Fly high
06 BLUE BIRD

I'm surprised to see ASFXX on there. And please do talk about the other performances in the other thread!

She missed independent or AUDIENCE [she said she missed a song ;D]

Thank goodness we have someone who went! :]


Please do talk about the other acts in Asian Music Chat Room:]

Could I use this at AHO?also did Ayu's look change???

Thanks for the review ^o^

wow...i love all that songs :)
great classics and great new songs

Startin and BOLD & Delicious rocks!

Great review, kawaii kisses. Her performing A Song for XX is awesome! xP

hmm... thanks~ ^^ Kawaii Kisses could you give a short recap on Koda Kumi's part?! I'm dying to see what she performed and what she wore... thanks!! ^^

You do know.. o_o..

I don't think Koda would wear anything different from what she wore before o_o

That green granny ribbon thing and the bra + jeans..

^ still!! i'd like to hear it.. =P let's hope she got rid of the granny pants!!

Awesome!! I'm so happy that Ayu's still the last one to perform. A little bad that some ppl left before Ayu came? Stupid ppl you don't even know what a concert is lol.

I bet Ayu's was the Best and Maybe Kumi's I just wanna see pictures

wow, sounds awesome IMO she shoulda gone for 1 song off every album, that'd be cool. but the choice of songs sound right on.

Those undies weren't for A-Nation!!

Well, they sure popped up during a-nation ;D

Ew.

^ how do you know?!

No, I mean like in the same timeframe.. LOL

Anyways, Kawaiikisses says KK-thing wore the same thing.

I KNOW... T_T"

and why do you refer to Koda Kumi as KK-thing... can't you just call her Koda Kumi or Koda or Kumi... even if you dislike her must you do such unneccesary things

o_o;

It's hard to say the name ;D So!

Ayu should do some H songs.. D: D:

Not really... Kuu would be fine... T_T"""
I have met my enemy

i want beautiful fighters
oh..well...its ok...! haha

a very good setlist; a mix of new and old

wow
it was a nice concert

YAY
at least she changed JULY 1st .. omg
im so sad no Beautiful Fighters !
anyway i like how she is singing SEASONS this time !

thanks for posting^^
Yeah-A song for XX at A Nation is a great idea^^

i was really looking forward to seeing "Beautiful Fighters" live, i liked the original [incorrect] setlist better. haha.

so if she doesn't sing "Beautiful Fighters" at Countdown Live 06-07, we probably won't see it until her 2007 Arena Tour =\

oh well, A-Nation should be nice either way. "A Song for XX" sounds promising and "Startin" is one of my favorites also.

（１）Startin' - Boring
（２）UNITE! - Obviously
（３）SEASONS - Cool
（４）A Song for XX - AWESOME
（５）Fly high - Obviously
（６）independent - Cool
（７）BLUE BIRD - Boring

This is a way better setlist! If she really did sing the "A BALLADS" version of "A Song for XX"... O-M-G! My favorite song... YAY! :D :D :D


COOL! :D

the tracklist is very good :yes i like it alot :D

Yay, she sang A Song for XX!!!! :D :D

This time AVEX current best-seller artist opened the concert and the most important closed. They usually put a big artist anyway to open the concert.

ASXX and Seasons! Wow... it make sense, both songs are very good and they are Japanese fans favorites.

And kawaii_kisses, thanks for the report. Can you tell us about Koda Kumi concert?

The setlist is a bit of a disappointment, but it'll be nice to hear A Song for XX again.

Maybe she decided to perform it to get her older fans back XD

I'm really down on the "I noticed some people left before Ayu performed" part though :(

Hmm I wonder if they were all together and they had like a family emergency or something...If it was just a bunch of random people leaving because they not only didn't give a damn about Ayu but also apparently detested her, then well that just doesn't make sense.

She needs to go on Hey!x3, have a random challege like competitive tetris or something, kick Hamada's ass, and then sing Beautiful Fighters. I for one would like to see her play some hardcore tetris :D.

So exciting!

Damn, I need to go to a-nation right after I go to see Ayu's tour but I don't know how that is going to work because it would cost too much money to stay there from the last performance of her tour until her first performance at a-nation...

you already know how I luv you, darling ;)

^ayu_ready?, where'd the pic for your sig come from? :)

I would imagine that people left during Ayu's performance because it was getting late [even though the concert ends at like 8pm..]

But it always happens. ;D

Anybody knows what did AAA perform?...

1st concert:
AAA
1. ハレルヤ => Hallelujah
2. DRAGON FIRE
3. キモノジェットガール => KIMONO JET GIRL
4. ハリケーン・リリ，ボストン・マリ => HURRICANE RIRI, BOSTON MARI

2nd concert:
次は　AAA （トリプルエーって読むんですね。しらなかった）
1. ハレルヤ
2. DRAGON FIRE
3. let it beat！　新曲
4. ハリケーン・リリ，ボストン・マリ

3rd concert [8/12]:
AAA

BLOOD on FIRE
ハレルヤ
ハリケーンリリ ボストンマリ


Source: 2ch / blogs

thats kinda sad since AYu always has the Greatest parts and whats the sence of going to a concert and not seeing it all the way through

YAY! 100 POSTS!!!!:thanks:

Probably cause they were tired? :/

How can you be tired when it ain't even 8pm.. And if you are in a concert, I wouldn't leave although I may feel a bit tired.. :E That's disrespecting the singer/band I think.

Thats what i said imagine how AYu would feel when she saw them leaving (if she saw them) thats really rude

Cause of all the cheering / moneyspending XD

Plus if you leave early, you don't have to deal with crappy lines to get out ;D There are TONS of people.. and being the first to get out = easy :D

I would be kinda tired if I was out in the sun + boiling heat for 5-7 hours standing. Plus, not everyone likes Ayu, so I don't mind if some people left.

And what truehappiness said too. They might want to avoid the mess trying to exit the place and getting a train/car/bus etc.

to be honest I am disappointed to see ayu singing seasons. She can't sing that song that good anymore. I remember watching the heyX3 04 seasons perf, it was horrible.

looks like a good setlist, at least no more HANABI :D

They were probably not there for Ayu part of the concert and weren't interested in her, so they decided to leave early because after the concert the traffic will be really bad.

Detested her? Wow.. you're dramatic.

Well, I think it was probably more for being the first to go than not being interested in Ayu~

I mean, come on. It's Ayu! Then there's fireworks. And then you have to leave. And so do thousands of other people. XD

They were probably tired. Going to a concert takes a lot out of ya with all the cheering and the heat and everything. Plus there's traffic. Plus not every person in Japan's entitled to like Ayu.

Kind of leaving the baseball stadium before the nineth inning.

lol sorry I wasn't trying to me dramatic, and I totally forgot about the whole avoiding the crowds thing. I'm the kind of person who'd rather hang out late to avoid traffic rather than hurry out early.

^ No probs. =D

Well, not everybody is interested in Ayu and if you pay 60 dollars for a concert and don't wait for the closing act, it's a sign you're not interested in the artist.
