Thoughts on My Story Tour 2005

[Nikki]

I've seen half of the concert now and it's amazing! I love it and I'm definitely going to buy the dvd (once I have enough money).

[jasjasss]

i give this concert 10/10 this is better than ARENA TOUR 2003-2004 !!! and the CDL ~

[Ayufan Madeen]

I already watch it and it's AMAZING O______o"! I also give 10/10! I must buy it!

[Dark Eiri]

A MUST HAVE for all Ayu fans!
I give it 10/10!

I saw the Kaleidescope Opening, Happy Ending and the GAME opening. It's a brilliant concert, Happy Ending was amazing, and for once, her backup singers were necessary for the dramatic ending...

I want to see the INSPIRE part, it reminds me of the Moulin Rogue finale so much...O.O

[Syphex]

I cannot stop watching About You. Amazing. Especially when it pauses before the second instrumental and she pulls down the chains..and then the guitars just blam in. (The silence should have been a lot longer, though.)

The only complaint is some of the costumes were really bad. I mean, tacky.

The guitars in Surreal were excellent. (And so was the revisted clearer version of the piano at the beginning.)

this concert was EXCELLENT. Ayu's best, IMO, by faaaar. I might be getting a reigon free player soon and if i do i'll definitely be picking the DVD up.

[ohsixthirty]

^i'm thinking of buying one just for this concert...i REALLY want to see it.

well, it was most likely like all the other concerts but the water thingy and the big "wide screen" was incredible it gave different kind of perspective for the viewers XD I wonder how it would be to see it live ^^

No, it's different than the other concerts. I can't exactly put my finger on why, but it just feels different. It's really, really awesome.

Also, for those without region free players, if you have a DVD drive on your computer, you can watch the DVDs that way - you just need to download some software to make your computer region free. Also I believe that Yesasia sells region free DVD players for pretty cheap.

Its definatly one of her most amazing concerts to date. It has amazing effects and makes you go "wow" when you watch it. O: I will definatly be getting this. :3

The main reason this concert is much more different to older ones is that her performances have a storyline to them. Like how HAPPY ENDING had a sort of Romeo and Juliet theme and how GAME had a pawns after the queen on a chess set theme. A lot of new thought and direction has gone into this concert and has given a refreshing difference to this concert.

A great concert. XD (especially the water fountain thingy) XDD

[truehappiness]

Something felt different about this concert. Something about the way it was filmed or something.. but compared to all her other concerts, it seems so different. [Like CDL04-05, AT04, AMuseum..] Dunno what it is though.

Awesome concert though. But I wanted her to sing HONEY and About You a lot louder.. lol



Zeo

[jasjasss]

i would say that i think ayu lip sync in ABOUT YOU .. coz you cannot hear the chains clashing noice .. ~~
but the concert is so COOL !!!
11/10 110% for this concert =)
so much better than CDL and ARena Tour 2004 `~

[norain]

the chains could be plastic hard, so you won't hear it much...? plus about you sounds so different it can't be.

[tl1029530921]

her vocals in About You were kinda poor...it could not possibly be lip-synched.

[SunshineSlayer]

Yeah, I'm pretty sure the chains are plastic. Also, you need to have the mic right against the thing you are recording to pick up any significant sound.

Anyways, my DVD came today so I have seen the whole thing and it is amazing, amazing, amazing.

The 3rd disc is full of funny things and some sweet things too, like the poker face anniversary thing. It includes clips from every date of the tour, so you get to see all the stuff like the clip of Ayu falling, bringing her dog onstage, messing up in Walking Proud, forgetting the lines AGAIN in Trauma (they played Trauma instead of Step You for the 1st half of the tour) - then she asks the audience, "Why? Why? Why can't I remember the lyrics to Trauma? EVER!" lol

[[taskin.ayu]]

LOL Can't she remember the lyrics to Trauma? XDD That's funny. XD

Her vocals were quite good overall, but she did sound a bit manly in About You. XDD The main problem with the vocals was in GAME. It sounded like she was singing through a piece of gladwrap. XD

Apparently, no, she can't remember Trauma since she has messed it up on video at least 3 times now. Even I get the verses of Trauma mixed up though.

I agree about the vocals on Game - I thought that was probably the worst part of the concert vocally. I liked the About You vocals though. She sang it with a different style and brought a different atmosphere to it. I don't think you have to sound like you do on the CD in order for it to be a good vocal performance.

[Nikki]

I liked her performance of About you
I didn't like the verses of game because of the electronic-voice, but the choruses were great.

Yeah I liked the chorus too. XD

I liked the About You performance, it was really powerful sounding. But the bit after the bridge sounded really odd to me. ^^;; The rest was good though. :3
