I just wanted to say I am happy to be alive, it was the first time being to a Countdown concert.

I had ticket for 18000 yen, quite expensive becquse the seat was in the center, but far from Ayu (D6). Still I am much more closer than before (arena seats) but the view is a bit worst because we cannot see the whole stage except if you are very tall (my height is 171cm, normal japanese height but I am not japanese)

My seat was quite good, the person in front of me was small and Iwas at the complete right, nobody to interfere my parapara of Trauma. But I still don t knoz the independent one, shame on me....

Concerning the goods, there are very nice. I love the new logo, reminds me the great MY STORY logo.
I bought the sticker (no uchiwa as expected), the wirst band, the calendar with my first ayu pan inside, key holder (don t know the name in proper english sorry.)


Maybe there are some spoilers.

The concert was great but not perfect.
The sound (at least from my seat) was sometimes horrible, especiqlly for Beautiful Fighters, the instruments wew kind of messed up ans Ayu voice were barely heard, I think it is not because of Ayu or musicians but people who manage the sound (don t know the name)

About the performance, I noticed at first some same costumes than Arena tour 2003 for ourselves but with better colors (not pink but darker colors)
and same performance for A Song for XX than the Arena Tour 2002.
I would have prefered something new.

But I really love the evolution performance ans the foloowing songs (forgot which ones) I just love the costume. Maybe I am wrong but at the beginnning of the concert(before encore), Ayu seems very active, a lot of moves and dances. Pretty cool (especially evolution)

About the tracklist, I hoped to see GAME, Moments , INSPIRE, STEP you, but none of them, too bad.

I don t have photos of goods stands, did not bring my camera and my mobile does not have one. Too bad.

(I just stopped this post, I saw Ayu performing 1 LOVE in CDL, I wondered how she can still be so energic, really great !!)

The biggest surprise for me was until that Day... after the great ola lol.
Very good but Ayu missed some "lalala" I love (she sang the "lalalla" ans "uh uh" better in the album)

I forgot to say so many things, sorry.

Last thing, HAPPY NEW YEAR from Japan.
あけましておめでとうございます！！

(I don t really know where to post that, I am in a manga cafe so internet is not free, not a lot of time to search. sorry for the inconvenience. )
