[Official Message] ayumi hamasaki COUNTDOWN LIVE 2016-2017 A

[mi|kshake]

Yeah, watching last year's TA tour definitely made me feel like she could do a date in Europe on that scale. Unlikely to happen though I think...

[stepYOU1234]

Love the simple logo. I'd like more complex logos if her team were capable to carrying them off well with regular success but they are so hit and miss...

[EndOfTheWorld]

The logo looks nice and clean.
Sometimes it gets too much and looks tacky. The A symbol looks so nice and just a plain perfect circle.

[ayuinh.k?]

I wonder what the actual 20th anniversary logo will look like..10th anni had the heart with one wing and a crown and 15th anni was a modified version of 10th with a shield replacing the heart

The 15th anni. one was also taken from fans in Asia, iirc.

For me to travel to Japan would take a minimum of $800 (roundtrip flight) and 15 hours divided into 2 flights (there's no direct flight from my country).

But to travel somewhere in Europe it would cost me about $60 depending and only 2 hours of flight more or less.

Even KOKIA did concerts in Paris, 10 years ago. Also I see lots of unknown (to me) Jpop and Jrock bands performing in Europe. And they always manage to sell out (small/medium venues).

Ayu could do a sort of Europe TA Tour and sell out easily.

I am not sure where you live however, from Serbia, depending on the time of year and how many months in advance I purchase tickets, I can fly via Moscow, Frankfurt or Abu Dhabi for 440 EUR. Not so bad~

[BabyJane]

^Exactly. I see it the same way, if she would be willing to do something like TA Tour in Europe.

↓
New schedule: Doors open 21:30 / Main act 22:30

[Chris85]

Oh yes, I hope that's an indication that the show is going to be longer!

[Ryusei]

she did say that there would be a lot of material so this is exciting let's hope her voice is in shape

[Aderianu]

^I think she was talking about last concert at TA tour. But she can use this show as rehearsal before CDL

[AyuGAME]

wow..looks like we will get longer setlist

[truehappiness]

Since it's just on the 31st, it could be because they need that extra 30 minutes as a safety net so they can get to midnight a bit more easily for the countdown.

That makes no sense.
Other concerts can be longer as well, but they don´t need to be planned arround midnight, they just can extend it to the end.

I'm pretty certain it means a longer set list. There would be no reason that the other dates need to get moved earlier because they already start a lot earlier.

I said right when they announced the title that it sounded like this was going to be a Premium Countdown live and with the huge amount of songs to chose from at the TA tour that changed from date to date, there is already an epic length set list that is ready to go.

[tokyoxjapanxfan]

I wish this was going to be available to stream :-/

[EndOfTheWorld]

Me too.
I hate not being able to see the countdown live until many months later.
They could at least release the DVDs in January or February.
