濱崎步首度在台開唱　藝人到場取經


濱崎步亞洲巡迴第一站就選在台灣，演唱會順利落幕了，不過，主辦單位保密甚佳；不僅不開放媒體拍攝，每位粉 絲的包包都要檢查，就是為了保障入場聽眾的權益優先，而每回濱崎步開演唱會，服裝和舞台肯定都是大手筆，也 吸引藝人到場。

華麗的燈光效果，炫麗奪目的服裝造型，濱崎步每回開唱，總是叫人驚豔！日本流行教主的地位，當然不是這麼容 易建立起來的，只是，過去想看濱崎步演唱會得到海外，這回亞洲巡迴首站就選台灣，藝人想取經，當然趁現在。 藝人Ruby：「很期待她的整個舞台設計跟服裝。」


被稱為日本通的黃子佼，當然也不會錯過朝聖機會。藝人黃子佼：「第一個是她很專業，第二個是她這次真的，展 現很好的親和力，第三個是她這次來台灣，促進了我們的經濟發展。」


外頭的粉絲人潮更是多到得出動人員，幫忙指揮交通，進場也不馬虎，每個人的隨身包包都得先檢查過，避免演唱 會的畫面提前流出。

這回濱崎步又帶給歌迷什麼新的視覺與聽覺震撼，目前也只有在場的聽眾，才能感受得到。

「步姐的我都要！」　凌晨排隊買週邊


濱崎步演唱會今天晚上才展開，但凌晨就已經有粉絲到巨蛋外頭排隊，而且有些人根本就沒買到票看演唱會，為什 麼還這麼大費周章？原來主辦單位，準備了不少限量的周邊商品，要挖空粉絲們的荷包，就連計程車司機也來搶錢 做生意。

濱崎步粉絲：「濱崎步，我愛妳！」


粉絲們集合囉，步姐晚上7點的演唱會，大白天，已經把巨蛋擠得水泄不通。演唱會工作人員：「請2個2個，排 成一排。」


千元大鈔拿出來，買不到票的粉絲們，搶起限量周邊商品不手軟，不少人一買就砸下1萬多元，連大男生也背個白 色AYU購物袋，搶到了戰利品，忍不住在旁邊就欣賞了起來。


濱崎步粉絲：「最有收藏價值的，我覺得是Hello Kitty的吧，因為她很少，第1次，跟Hello Kitty合作吧，(週邊商品)最貴是衣服，1千1，我跟他，4點半就來排週邊(商品)。」


放著濱崎步音樂，巨蛋旁邊停的計程車，怎麼被粉絲們，塗鴉得亂七八糟？計程車司機：「這都擦得掉，來... 。」


原來是計程車司機心甘情願的啦，生意不好做，才突發奇想，開放讓粉絲寫下要對濱崎步說的話，最主要是要賺包 車錢，靠濱崎步發方便財，果真也吸引不少目光！

Bursting of balloons, fires, cage, laser lights with Hamasaki Ayumi's voice, dancers performance and the glamorous costumes made the J-pop queen successfully opened up the Asian market. Her left thigh was wrapped with bondage which showed her love to the fans of Taiwan.

Before the concert began, the arena was crowded with people rushing to buy the tour goods. The fans spent a lot to show their love to their idol. It suddenly rained before the concert began and everyone looked for shelters which delayed the concert.

At around 7:40 p.m., a bit later then the original time, alarms rang on the stage and opened the curtain for Hamasaki Ayumi's Asia tour. Once ayumi appeared everyone stood up. She had six costumes and sand more than 20 songs including the encore songs. Most of the songs were from her latest release, Secret.

While singing M and appears, ayumi changed into a green costume and performed a wonderful drama for her fans. For part of Me, she wore the same costume in the video. The blossom-like lights blew away the audience. Before the encore, the Las Vegas style costumes brought the audience into an "ayumi motion". At last, the silver ribbons on stage concluded the concert.

ayumi didn't make fans wait for the encore. She wore a T-shirt and sang SEASONS. Afterwards, she started talking to the audience. ayumi used Japanese and English to make funny conversations with her guitarist, Yoshio just as always. She also said in Chinese "Thanks everyone, thanks Taiwan". Right after some fans showed a banner asking ayumi to listen to them sing. Although it was not well prepared, ayumi was touched and complimented them. Finally, ayumi put down her mic and shouted "Thank you everyone" drawing an end to her first concert around Asia. She is going to fly back to Japan on 25th at 1:35 p.m. and continued with her tour.

The Part of me outfit look incredibly gorgeous .

[immel]

I find it funny how they decorated the 7eleven store for the event. Greatness.

And the tattoo is wow, although he/she is going to regret it so much in the future.

[waltz#2]

Ayu and Häagen-Dazs in the same store? I am definitely living in the wrong country. XD

Thanks for sharing these!

[truehappiness]

Just why would they regret it, immel? >> lol

[987654321987]

...ai... the group singing.. i hope the gp singing in hk will not be organized so badly ( or not organize at all)

[xiaou-xijiang]

@truehappiness: when those wrinkles come and the ink starts to sag it won't be so attractive.

[truehappiness]

Eh, that's the case for all tattoos. lol

[xiaou-xijiang]

^yeah it is. I can imagine him(her? it looks like a femine belly) 10 years later going: Look at how much I love you AYU! and freaking her out completely.

[evolution7931]

Omg Ayu MANIA in Taiwan!! I want to see that video news coverage. Helicopter shots!

[xiaou-xijiang]

I want one of those Ayu Man Bag.

Apart from the things that xiaou-xijiang already mentioned, that makes most people regret their tattoos sooner or later, there's also the fact that those people are very young. They've liked Ayu for at most 8 years of their life, that's nothing compared to how long they will live. In 99.9% of the cases those people will not like Ayumi for their entire life, especially not since in 20 years she'll most likely have been gone from the artist world for a long time, but the tattoo will still be there. Sure it's a memory, but in 20 years there will be new things in their lives, new people that are important, and the Ayumi craze they once had will only be a faded memory.

[truehappiness]

You're sure you aren't just describing your own case of Ayu-craziness? D:

[~X2RADialbomber~]

That tattoo looks like it was drawn on with a texta (I've done one of those before) Don't get so worried guys.

[minna]

Oh gosh I would have loved to be there!
They are soo lucky...

:'(

The outfit of part of me is so beautiful!!!
Thanks for posting those news!
