[truehappiness]

I wonder if this sort of thing goes into news..

[FeNgZhEnG]

nice report...envious as usual for any person going for ayu concerts..

[mitch179]

Wow, thanks for the report, I read the whole thing.

Can you please describe the set/stage a little bit more? Was it very basic or extravagant?

Yatsu you're a darling~
Thanks for writing such a great report

[oro77]

The stage is like CDL with much more illuminations for Boys & Girls, AUDIENCE...

I just came back from the second concert. I am a bit tired but it was really great.

It seems that the whole performance was a bit better(dancers and Ayu)
I don't remember which song it was but Shuuya missed the flag in the first performance, too bad !!
This time, it was perfect for everyone !

SEASONS performance was much better too
Flower garden too, I love when Ayu says "Ikuyo" before beginning to sing!

Ayu messed up a bit SURREAL, she sang :
Ah- 語り明かしたいつかの夢だって
ひとりじゃ守りようがない
Ah- 語り明かしたいつかの夢だって

instead of

Ah- 指切りをしたあの日の約束は
ひとりじゃ守りようがない
Ah- 語り明かしたいつかの夢だって

Too bad because it is my favorite part of SURREAL.

Of course, Ayu noticed when she sang it, it was cute

The MC was good too, Ayu retell a bit about the car story, Yocchan told one more time about asian food
Too bad, I forgot the name Shizumi ? The member who said he will learn Chinese for the Asian Tour in CDL. Ayu asked him to speak Chinese but he said he will begin to learn from now LOL
Ayu will show us some videos when she will be back to Japan and will ask again to the member to speak Chinese
I am not sure to have understood but he was also asked by Yocchan to translate at the same time the MC during the Asian Tour

About the Ayu ready video, it was different, the clip showed a plane : Going to Taiwan, ittekimasu !
It was very short, the whole clip usually makes 2 turns, this time, only one and JEWEL followed.

About the buzzing sound at beginning; there were 2 like the first time

My seat was much closer to the stage than before B2, I could see better the choreography, I did not notice Ayu jumped so much the first time
But for the first concert, I was so close to Ayu when Ayu came in the front of the stage, it was incredible !! Unfortunately, it was impossible to see Ayu that close with B seats.


Sorry, the structure of my post sucks

[Sim']

^ Thanks A LOT for the today's reveiw =33

[freedreamer]

amaxing! thanks so much

[Neil]

I'm so jealous of you!
At the very end, did she do that thing where she gets the audience to quite down completely, then she shouts 'thank you' in japanese to the audience without her microphone?

[Sim']

I have a question please :

Were there any cameras ? I mean, 2-3 cameras recording from different angles ??
Did you notice cameras during the two first performances at the Saitama Super Arena ?

I know there are good chances that DVD will be recorded at Yokohama Arena, but I really want some extracts from the Saitama Super Arena T^T

[oro77]

Yes there were few cameras
Even if it is not shown on DVD, the cameras are used to show Ayu on the screen or to shoot the public during the MC.
I think it was during the MC, when the guy cosplaying Ladies Night were shot.

[Sim']

Thanks oro77 for these informations =)

[I want Saitama this time T^T not Yokohama T-T]

[maneayu]

wow!! Yatsuda and Oro77, thanks so much for your reviews!
I'm so excited to go to Yokohama Arena concert >_<

(and I'm so excited to hear SURREAL and Who... ) T____T

[hiroshi_ben]

[Diana]

Haha... I didnt read it all sorry >_> Spoiler... But I bet you had a great time ^^

[maumau.drop]

OMG i'm so excited right now *O* I really wanna see this show. I read it all and I wanna thank you for share your experience with us ^^ Thank u

[yatsuda]

The camera man was running like crazy from a stage to the next, LOL!!! Especially when he was searching for Ayu's friend who'd cosplayed Ladies' Night!!

The stage was quite simple (see photo in the photo post). The end of the stage that's in the middle did lift once, revealing chandelier like threads (?) of crystal like beads. The front stage also came up a few times, I think. They used the openings with curtains (one on each side of the main stage) to get the dancers out during the Part of Me performance. And towards the end, the stage was lit up, and it moved to make 3 hearts (that's really hard to explain!!!). Those lights reminded me of the My Story tour, for some reason.

Oh, and no, no intro clip for this concert.

What was the other question asked... she came down from the ceiling sitting on something (I think there's a photo in the photo thread).
