She's a good performer live but I don't think she's a great vocalist life. Often she songs really deep but it sounds like she's just like lowered her voice and is rambling the lyrics.

^That's such an opposite opinion to mine, out of every artist I'm listening to I feel like only Koda Kumi (and maybe Gackt) is as good live as on albums (if not better, which is most of the time), she hardly misses notes and even if she does the whole song doesn't make you ears hurt (while eg Ayu can sometimes have half a concert sung really badly), recently I watched some american singers live (eg Perry) and they were horrible, Kuu is really a goddess when it comes to live vocals.

Her gorgeous voice, especially live, is actually the reason why I love her so much.
It made me a fan to begin with.

imo, Kuu is one of the best asian artists live

Kuu is great live, but perfection is another thing.
It's true, her tone singing live is always deeper than normal! And that's actually something that makes me love her more: listening to perfect performers live is not as fun an experience as it sounds.
For me it's more about interpretations, than vocals.

On another note, I didn't notice she didn't include On Your Side!

She better perform it, I like that song A LOT.

a good pro that there is live band for the whole concert.
The stage is also quite nice. My seat is a bit far but i'm not worried now, seeing the huge screens in the scene

I like what i saw from the preview.
I really can't wait to assist to the show on May,10th

Sometimes I feel like she's just rambling. Like that video of her from Let's Party singing Watchu Waitin' On. Love the song but live it was like she wasn't even singing. Just like speaking from deep within her throat.

^
Or her version of Uta Waga Inochi, in Color the Cover!
When she's singing the verses, she's seriously giving me the creeps.
In both a good and bad way, lol.

Isn't kuu a Contralto? I get what you mean, but I tend to really like her deep vocals
