[News] Ayumi Hamasaki 15th Anniversary TOUR ～A BEST LIVE～

[kimmeh]

Since A Classical was basically the fans favorite songs, it means that this concert will probably have
M, Love song, Seasons, Blue Bird, Days, Voyage and Dearest... Which is not so bad.
Howeverr... Evolution, Humming 7/4, Boys & Girls, My all, Beautiful fighters, unite!, trauma .... >.<
At the same time, I'd be so bummed if I went to an Ayu concert and it didnt play the classics... Ahh...

[ayuuk]

I like less popular songs like Heartplace and HAPPY ENDING, so I guess fan voting is probably not in my favor LOL

[mizuki-7]

^me too :/

[toLOVE]

I would LOVE if she sings these songs <3 still alone, kanariya, P.S II, Close to you, Liar, In the Corner, criminal, It was, GUILTY, Like a doll, *but I know I'm dreaming*.

[Gustavopc]

Well, Kuu's Premium Night and Namie's last tour were also based on fan-voting, so it may not turn out as a complete disaster. But I hope she does include a couple of songs from LOVE again, even if people do not vote on them, and also PERFORM ******ING KANARIYA please :3

I agree. The most I could see ayu doing overseas is maybe one or two songs but not a whole concert. Maybe if her world fans came to the one spot she would have more than enough, but that cant happen. If she had enough to do a world tour, I think she would have already, despite the fact she has already said she has no interest in perusing her carer overseas. Maybe if she had a pre-order system, like as in she will only come if enough tickets get sold would be a better move than just saying I'm coming here, and the tour costing more than the ticket sales.

[hayasaki]

I'd cry out of happiness to see Ayu opens the tour again with Born to Be.

[RealLight]

I'd die of happiness if she sings ever free, kanariya (the PV version pls), monochrome, And Then and SCAR.

Actually, really hoping for A Song for XX. ahaha.

A Museum's ASFXX version was so damn amazing. That's actually the very first performance I saw of hers...

I'm not too excited about the setlist if it's TA controlled, though. That hasn't really ended up well in the past, predictability and whatnot. Oh well.

[~angel*ayumi~]

I want her to sing kanariya + girlish *_*

Yeah, we've seen that enough I think. If she is going to recycle performances, I would rather see M from Dome Tour 01.

Also, about that tweet. I also think that it was just meant for Japan unfortunately. As for the possibility of her performing in the US...never say never. If L'arc can fill Madison Square Garden, then it is certainly possible. I would still say chances are slim though. L'arc has put a lot of effort in over the years of gradually cultivating a non-asian fan base. Ayu has put effort into Asia, but not really so much beyond that.

As I mentioned, I thought the setlist for Kuu's premium night was a disaster. Namie's was good though.

I hope people DON'T vote for LOVE again - she has performed most of the mini album songs already and I'm sure at least a couple of LOVE again songs will make it into the tour setlist regardless of votes - just like Kuu and Namie's tour had new songs in it even though the fans didn't necassarily vote for those. So, yeah, everyone save your votes for other songs please.

I have to disagree with both.
AT07 was reminiscent, but much more a of tribute (she only walked for like thirty seconds!)
And Virgin Road was...well. Virgin Road, not M! xD
It just didn't bring that atmosphere that M does.

I think if M is chosen, it's more than likely that this one would be chosen anyway.

I don't think this will happen though to be honest.
If she was going to re-perform previous performances, then she might as well have just revived the concert of her choice.
But, it doesn't look like it'll be this way.
A MUSEUM and Asia Tour '08 were all different.

[Bad Wolf]

If she should bring ANYTHING back, it's that scary as hell "Duty" performance when her and her dancers were dressed as soldiers carrying guns. That was epic.

[Didz-19]

she didn't say she will "re-cycled" her last performances from her last tour~ why do we keep on predicting? relax guys!

If it's to be done exactly on the same way isn't it easier to watch the original one on the DVD?

I wouldn't say exactly the same, some variation? I think it would be pretty awesome if she melded various performances together. Like, if she took the costume of M from Dome Tour 2001, and the runway/choreography from A MUSEUM?

That is dreaming, but I think it would be amazing.

[Zeke.]

If she were going to recycle performances, it would make more sense to call the tour ~A BEST LIVES~

But, it would also have made more sense to call A COMPLETE "A COLLECTION" instead (since it did not have all the doubles from double a-sides and it also was not an END ALL collection - A COMPLETE should have been reserved for when she retired or died).

[Bad Wolf]

Wait, wasn't the Dome Tour M dress like, complete with a giant blinking cross? That was ridiculous lol.

I agree on the basis that wouldn't TA be voting for live performances instead of songs?

Who knows what she'll do though! (the lady did call singles 'mini albums'!!!)
