[News] Tokyo Rainbow Pride 2018 Special Live

[Marcelo]

I'm thinking of going anyways even though I didn't win, damn haha. Just wondering what time I should get there.

[Zeke.]

Any idea how long the show will be today? How long was Mika’s last year?

I am on the fence about going. I didn’t get selected but was planning on going anyway, but now I’m wondering if it’s worth it lol. Especially if she gonna sing XOXO and how beautiful you are, I don’t need to hear those tracks again.

It's scheduled for 30 min.
From 17:00 to 17:30.


I'm really curious to see how well they'll handle the amount of people lol. I have an early number, so I'll get in pretty quickly. But it'll start getting chaotic towards the end I think lol.

Congrats on getting selected! I'm jealous, lol.

I just looked up Mika's set from last year and it was 6 songs, so I guess that would equate to about the same amount of time for ayu as you mentioned.

I really want to hear/see WARNING live but it's probably not worth it for me to try and camp out around the arena just in hopes that she may sing that song.

Well...You could try going and then if it gets too crowded, you could ditch. If you're able to then I think you should go for it! You'll get to tell us in your own way what you thought of the show. But, far be it from me to be pushy. XD

I was able to get the final 2 songs over a Twitter account broadcasting it live. The final 2 songs were BLUE BIRD and Boys & Girls and she sounded pretty good.

Well, that was hellish haha. So badly organized for artist of her magnitude. I wasn't chosen, so I was on the back, and it was anything but an open space. People kept pushing and hundreds of people filled the whole area. Left cos no point since you couldn't see anything, what a waste of time haha. It was like Shibuya ViVi book part 2.

I don't think there's anyway they would've been able to make it any better unfortunately. It's rare that huge artists perform there, and they did there best by increasing the guests from 700 to 1000.

People knew she was coming, so people who weren't selected were parked in front of the barriers for hours. And even if people aren't fans, she's still a huge name, so people stopped and tried to see.

It'd have been crazy no matter what unfortunately. It didn't help that she was 30 minutes late either... haha.


As for me, I was really surprised there was no pushing within the barriers.
When I went to the TA Zushi beach AWA event, it was far more aggressive...


She was really sincere in what she was saying, and I felt that it was the realist that I've gotten to see her. It didn't feel like a rehearsed script being repeated over and over like her other MCs. So I was quite touched by her words. And surprised at how good she sounded. Hbya was sung really well.

I can totally understand since the area was what is was, it wouldn't have been avoided. All I'm saying is that they should have, for example, moved her concert part to the part of the park where people were having picnic and sitting around, more of an open space. The small stage wasn't fitting for a name like her to begin with, hense the whole park paralyzed until she was done hahah.

So glad I didn't go then! I didn't get selected for a seat either, but was thinking of going anyway. Was on the fence about it till the last second, but considering it was so hot that day and I knew it was just going to be wall to wall people, I decided against going.

Watched the news stuff and all very positive.

[~angel*ayumi~]

The best image I could find so far, it´s from IG

[EndOfTheWorld]

Was not expecting Curtain Call.

[AyuCanada]

It feels a lot like a A-nation setlist

[~angel*ayumi~]

It seems first 3 were a medley.

[maxikot]

I've recorded the show from 2 different streaming sources, can't see much (I mean it), but the audio is there. Will convert, upload somewhere and share.
