I wasn't talking about fancams, just audio which is simple to make.
It doesn't matter if it's forbidden to record or not. I attended 4 concerts of Mylene Farmer in 2009 both in Russia and in France and managed to make audio recordings of 2 of them, though it was strictly forbidden to record. And lots of people did record as well. My mp3 player was kept in my pocket and I just enjoyed the concert without paying attention to the recording. Now I have something to remember.

The review sounds so epic with beloved and BRILLANTE!! I wanna see them in DVD so bad @_@

[Luja.]

Taru86, thank you for the long review!! BRILLANTE sounds awesome and I am so happy she does the "ありがとうございました" without mic at the end. I just love this moment, it always makes me tear up a bit when I watch DVDs.

The performance ended with Shu-ya walking towards Ayu, and as Ayu slowly turned around the lights got darker and darker, and when they finally met eye-to-eye all of the lights went off.

Haha, their typical way to end the ballad performances.

Sometimes the wars on this forum are so weird...

Well, anyway, I hope we get pictures soon because I'm very curious about those. Not sure anymore I'm going to love that Days performance though. :<

[toniayu]

[SURREAL__RAINBOW]

omfg... same. I love everything xD

[Luja.]

I love the dresses for walking proud/part of Me/beloved and BRILLANTE. The others aren't bad but I am not really fond of them.
Thanks for posting indyplus!

[asmAyumi1992]

Oh wow!! She looks gorgeous in all outfits!!!

[Larien]

OMG, I love the red dress and the long, balletic one with all the tulle! How lovely!

I have to say, though, from this alone, I don't think I would necessarily condemn the concert's movement away from its theme. Or rather, I wouldn't necessarily say that this is true. It is evolving, but I think it is doing so in a way that is evolving with the country's feelings. It's still not the obscenely gaudy spectacle we're used to, but it has some fun and life and entertainment for people to enjoy.
Perhaps it's just my opinion, but I feel that the initial incarnation of POM was appropriate for the time it appeared, and this version, too, I think is likewise appropriate for the moment.

Power of Music...I think this concept isn't about to keep things clean all the way..I think it's more about a progress of moving forward with Japan together after the 311 Disaster.

So far I can't see any inconsistent....
I love this FINAL Chapter..Obviously Ayu is moving forward to make the concert become more colorful and entertaining...so as Japan...

[YUKARI]

nice outfits!

it seems like Tim touches ayu's breast?

^ Sorry..Network problem and I re-post that.

[Chibi-Chan]

Mh, I like the outfits. But I really liked the simple consept of POM, so I don't know if those costumes really fit the consept.

Thank you for stating that more clearly and succinctly that I did. xP

[AyuGAME]

love the outfits!!!

[AyuWorld]

Ayu looks gorgeous in those outfits! the pink tutu dress and the white fluffy dress <3

hey i wonder when whe she gets bored with that open side pant xDDD

[Deibel]

Like she said in a recent interview:

- What about the changing setlist, from the 1st to final chapter?
- That's because Japan is progressing. That wasn't in the plan at the beginning, but came about during the tour itself: the idea of progressing together.

- What are your reflections after completing the first half?
- Now, I'm wondering what will happen in the coming autumn. It's not that I'm lost, but just that I want to match the show with the direction Japan will be heading in, so there are some details which I won't be able to include until the right time comes. I'm looking forward to how things will turn out.

The show was growing since its beggining, with new songs at every date, and now it includes more elements, like her classic concerts.

PoM is having an evolution, just like Japan. The situation isn't the same than a few months ago, and that's the reason why her concert must change too. That doesn't mean that the initial concept is lost, more like the opposite; the own concept is evolving!

That's what I think about these new changes.
