This is just my opinion and not meant to offend as I know some wont view this the same way. I used to like Ayu alot despite all the Lip Sync stuff but I just feel she's just went from bad to worse over the past few years concerts wise. It has became too over crowded with too many dancers, acrobats, backing singers with similar costumes and themes. I keep checking in to see if things have improved cos I wanna like her shows again but always feel like hrmph nah nothings got any better.
I'm totally sick of the Surreal - Evolution - Surreal combo, the air acrobatics and those annoying acrobats either dressed up as clowns all the time or in german type soldier outfits. Blended in with other songs that the costumes or dancing don't even fit in with. Everything seems predictable. I dont want to hear Timmy screeching wearing the same hooker outfit and feather shoulder pads. In fact I don't really like or want to see any of the backing singers be in the show much lol they should be backing singers.. when they do the band interludes how many times do we need to listen to them make WOHOAHAOAOHAOAHAOAOOOOOOOOH sounds to try and match the keyboard lol none of them sound great at all period lol! What do they really bring?
I wish Ayu would just strip it all back, ditch 2 of the backing singers (timmy for def) and have two normal dressed backing singers mixed in with the band. Make it about her performances with a group of only about 6-8 dancers (fresh faces) its all becoming abit tired with some of them.. especially the guy who spins round for every solo he does and is mostly always off balance. Have some fresh ideas for the performances instead of the constant use of fans, schoolwear/maid look, spit up the side trousers, red and black pvc and splattered clothes with paint.
In the past few years I've only really saw one or two performances in the whole concert or song choices that I thought great that was good or fresher cos we have not heard that in a while. Then however its 90% of a let down with all the other crap mentioned above. I really think she needs to reinvent and go in a new direction. I dunno if anyone feels the same?
I will be interested to see what this CDL is like, I'm hoping there is some improvements I've heard the staging was different for example but we will see.
