[News] 47 prefectures tour

[Tanne]

Hello everyone.

I just applied for Act 2. But I'm surprised that I didn't have to enter my TA data anywhere. My Livepoket email address is the same as TA's. I hope everything is correct.
Has anyone else applied for Act 2?

I was at the first show 7/8 Chiba. My first ayu concert and she blew me away. I was amazed that she sang live & danced her butt off. She really motivates the crowd to participate. I cried during Hanabi since it is one of my favorite songs. I wish there was a live band but I understand it’s a smaller venue. Her dancers & back up singers were great too.
Please check out my page for pics/videos @karma.is.my.friend on Instagram ���� (I hope I can share this info)

The seltist is nice. I suppose she'll change it in the future. Maybe to include a max of her songs.

I love to see Replace. I listened to it today and I said myself it has been a while I didn't do it.

No actual photos yet, but instagram user ta_marukome made a description of the show with cute drawings. They are under the spoiler

Spoiler:

And here is the description from those pictures and from chinese fans. Sorry for my English, native speakers might have a bleed from their eyes, but that's better than nothing, rignt?

Dancers appeared at the audience and went up on stage. Probably like at the 25th anniversary live? There were 6 huge screens, you can see them on the drawing. Opening was remixed version of Nonfiction and screens were set up as decoratopns from PV. Ayu was a little nervous on the first day, but more confident on the second day.

The first outfit is shiny pink zabra pattern suit, short blazer and shiny black tanktop underneath.
For the Summer Again it were tropical jungles on screens and it all looked realistic. Ayu also danced a lot.

Next outfit was black high-waisted pants and black silk long-sleeved cropped top. At the Sparkle dance and stage look was quite similar to the PV. Lucky boy was brought on the stage.

Lucky girl was brought on the stage at the XOXO. Girl that were selected on the 8th even told ayu that she is pregnant. Ayu was very happy and told her to give birth to a healthy baby safely. Screens showed a lot of app icons and emojies

Merry-go-round was like CDL13-14 performance

Local Chiba ayupan appeared on screen during ayu-mi-x

On the 8th ayu choked up in the middle of singing untitled for her... story 2, and on 9th she performed well from the beginning to the end. It was imple background for this song wuth photos of ayu and her friend. Ayu weared sparkling white long gauze dress and big white bow headband.

At the HANABI background showed vast galaxy, and it is accompanied by meteors passing by one by one. At the HANABI ~episode~ it was blooming fireworks

For the Endless sorrow ayu weared super big and fluffy grey dress. Screens also recreated PV, the background is a ruins and fluttering feathers.
The special screen video started after Endless sorrow. It showed ayu from the different angles. Photos from the filming was uploaded at the instagram


For the Wake me up ayu was in vibrant green outfit - short top and pants.

At the You & Me ayu held a big water spray gun and swept towards the audience crazily. Everyone was happy. Screens was full of cute fluorescent elements.

Summer Love was decorated with winter elements. Afterwards, a lot of emoji floated.

Ayu's whole body was wrapped in the cute A logo leopard print swimming ring

At the BLUE BIRD PV played on screens.

At the MC Ayu dramatically announce that she has something important to tell. And it was about how she messed up the Endless sorrow lyrics

For the encore ayu weared white peaked cap with low twist double ponytails, denim suit and white T-shirt underneath. After Sunrise she threw towel from the stage. On the 9th, she threw two towels at the same place.

Before Boys & Girls ayupan with leopard print and double ponytails from Shibuya 108 appeared on the big screen to teach everyone how to dance.

At the July 1st four large screens play the images of July 1st over the years and in the middle was ayu who is singing now.

Screens whowed beautiful cherry blossom petals and scrolled doewn the lyrics of Replace

it's not a TA tour even if ayu keeps repeating that she's looking forward to see all of her TA as if other fans not existed

[AguileraAnimato]

OKIE
One more thing I want to know, they said there's no live band in this show so Ayu sings with the backing track only?

Apart from occasional shows there is no live band in her tours since af least Just the beginning -20, which was around kicked off in 2017?

[AguileraAnimato]

OMG I just realized she has ripped off the live band since 2017
How can she ensure the spirit of the show without her close bandmate?

[brener]

^ yeah, i'm so sad about it

[Chris85]

I've never had a sense of live band at Ayu shows, the sound is like from the album. While it's weird having no band, in terms of the sound I doubt I'd notice a difference.
