Thanks so much

[isthisLOL?]

Thanks for the opening performance

I uploaded sending mail to the downloads section, filmed off screen so it's not perfect but the quality is pretty similar to the do it again clip, maybe a bit better even.

Did anyone do anything "special" for the UStream performance? I made myself a spider (vanilla ice cream and coke) in my AT09 mug, had my AT06 uchiwa and watched it on my 68" TV.

KANPAI!!

@ Earth Maiden WOW!!!!
Whole new Ayu experience <3 <3

[freedreamer]

o wow thats super clear on TV!!!

[isthisLOL?]

I bought a box of my favorite chocolates and made a salad...my stuff pales in comparison haha

[AyUmIXx]

OMGG
the opening do it again is SUPERB.
i think this CDL has the best stage design. love it a lot.

[truehappiness]

Someone made a cake for the concert, haha~

[Earth_maiden]

I used my dad's laptop and he got me a cable that lets you view the laptop screen on the TV, I didn't even know I could do that. My daddy's awesome.

But the quality was great, a little bit pixelated occasionally but it was just like I was watching one of my DVDs.

Here's a few pics I took of the screen if anyone wants to see:

Spoiler:

I had to use my flash, or else the pics came out jittery. So please just excuse the random balls of light on the TV... ^_^;











Ayu has a fairy!



^Sorry Maro-chan!

[ayuuk]

^Haha sorry Maro!

[Luja.]

Judging from the screencaps (thanks for posting! ) this CDL looks great to me!
I only read the rather negative reviews of people who attended yesterday, so I am rather surprised.

[shizukanaotoko]

Happy New Year everyone! I totally wanted to watch this but couldn't because my computer short-circuited T_T Does anyone know how many viewers streamed this in total?

1,765 In Crowd

[miki_beland]

^ you can join the crowd without paying it, so maybe it was more or maybe it was less.. joining the crowd is similar to FB's "like"

[truehappiness]

The crowd =/= everyone who was watching.

The total viewers for all three shows across CDL10-11, POWER OF MUSIC, and CDL11-12 is 43,171. Quite a few people were repeats through each show because the unique viewer count is only 12,544. I think they also counted when CDL10-11 had the first two songs free.

Ok can I just rant a little, I've always liked Ayu, have all her concert dvds and seen her concerts live between 2005 right up to Rock and Roll Circus 7 days final. but I gotta say this and wondering if anyone is of the same opinion.

Ayu what happened..seriously its the worst CDL i think i've ever seen from her in my opinion of course (before people go ape lol) feel she needs to get back to her roots ditch this entourage of too many back up dancers, backing singers, ditch the ribbon acrobatics and hoop from every concert she does and revamp her costume dept..(sometimes she gets it right other times its just so silly) what happened to her being a fashion icon lol!

I've totally felt over the past few years shes just lost her way or her direction and its getting tired, boring, predictable and not current. I thought she almost saved herself with the Love Songs album as it was the first time I listend to an album of hers over and over again. The circle stage came into play which made it fresh from last year's countdown as well. But now this show?! Girl just rewinded back to blah!

Ayu REVAMP yourself in a 2012 way please.. however if party queen and that koda kumi you are so beautiful attempt is what is coming from the new ablum im so not excited.

Oh and dont even get me started on that timmy person .. what is he all about lol I thought finally we dont have that Peco grandma high kicking and wailing in the background but now we have this English guy.. it seems like Ayu just hires who her new best pal is and says lets just make you a back up singer so we can hang out and stuff lol! Its ok you don't need to be able to sing lol!

does anyone agree on any level.. im just curious and please dont hate me cos i've spoke my mind I know some people love EVERYTHING she does and thats cool

Agreed on the above... but i haven't watched the show yet

[truehappiness]

Just saying but she seems to have replaced her costume designer for 11-ish years (Akira Noda) with the guy in charge of DOSQA some time last year.
