so, I went to all 3 concerts. all of us went: me, macmaayu, OyTony and her husband also we met Earth_Maiden, Suteisi, Chris and SURREAL_RAINBOW at the venue yesterday, I bought the ticket for the C4 three hours before the show. and it was veeeery good seat!! SURREAL_RAINBOW was siting 2 rows behind me.

I can say that the feelings from all 3 concerts differ very much. The first day I was sitting in 2nd floor of stand and I saw the show fully. Also, it was the best seat to watch Together when... performance. Then, the 2nd day me and macmaayu were seating in B4, it's the opposite to A and C. I thought like she mainly performed for A and C rather than to other sides, but then the 3rd day I had C4, I understood that B4 was good too. I was crying a lot in the second day the thing was that she always started and ended the song looking towards to A and C. As there were crane and royal, the first row of E, F, G are also veeery good! She clapped every fan in royal (during Trauma), waaah so envy

btw I just saw Kouhaku performance... I don't know why it's a bit weak -.- even people in jpopsuki commented like "oh, she's going down"... because the concerts were soo great, one just can't say "she's going down". Also, here's in AHS there's a poll about the hiatus. I was thinking about that, but after the concerts I've understood that she won't have hiatus for sure, not this year at least. music is her life and I'm sure she'll continue doing concerts. I understood that she's now a concert artist, not a tv artist.

Also, as I went to all concerts, I got the feeling that the first two days she was more spontaneous, funny, live. But the third day as there were a lot of cameras, the concert was shooting for DVD, it made me feel that it's a liiiitle bit staged, like we all are starring for the movie. sorry, if nobody else got this feeling, may be it's just me. btw she cried all 3 days!!

aww, anyways, I'm sure that every fan should attend ayu's concert at least once! it opened my eyes to a lot of songs that I didn't like before and seeing her is such an incredible experience... aww.

so now, I like Together when, until that Day..., Humming 7/4 waaaay more than I used to. I'm sure she'll bring Together when concept to arena tour!!! I hope so, because it was soo amazing
I didn"t even realize other members would be there, lol. I was too focussed on the excitement of it all, being my first Ayu concert ever.

I also felt like the last night was a little staged, she added a lot more whoo's and ooo's and yeah's and stuff like that, much more so than she used on the first night. Especially during Beautiful Fighters and Fly High! On the first night I was in the north block, D stand, first floor, last row, and when she went up in the lift she was right above us, I managed to take a few sneaky pics....

Last night I was was on the south side, G stand, first floor, row 10 so I was pretty much completely opposite of where I sat before, and it was great to be able to see the show from both sides. When she came over to the side stage I could see her so close, I cried!! I personally only heard 1 fault with you and me on the first night, and felt she was screaming a bit too much in snowy kiss on the last night, but like I said, I was soo happy to be there I didn't care about any vocal issues if she had any.

I lost my black wristband, wah.
