Hmmmm, as a greater rock fan than a pop fan (Ayu is a minority in my iTunes), I've always found Ayu's rock songs kind of lame; and I think this is why some fans don't consider her songs that integrate electric/bass guitar, plus drums as rock. I've always felt as if Ayu's rock songs are just pop songs with selective instruments. It is the attitude of a rock song that actually allows it to become that way. Take Nirvana, or the Smashing Pumpkins for example. I really cannot imagine Ayu singing about hippie chick's drinking penny royal tea as to abort their pregnancies like Kurt Cobain, or proclaiming 'despite all my rage, I am still just a rat in a cage' like Billy Corgan. Though, both these bands came to prominence in the grunge era, so it is kind of unfair to argue these examples when lighter music out there is also considered rock.

I reckon the closest she has ever come to rock is Duty. End of the World still blows my mind; it has that edge of insanity about it.

Well for a lot of us (including you maybe?) we don't (fully) understand what she's singing about until the translations come out. So when listening, I am not focusing on the subject matter so much as the sound. And for me, her music is heavy enough for me to be like "F?CK YEAH!" and with enough of a catchy/genius melody/musical structure for me to want to listen to it over and over again - and that is good enough for me. Hell, it's exactly what I'm looking for.

Wow, this really isn't Ayu's usual type of event. I'm hoping for no dancers and all rock and/or accoustic tracks.

Thank you for information :-) I hope they won't cut Ayu's performance too much.

She's not going to perform random obscure album tracks to a crowd of people who are at best are going to be casual fans.

I look forward to seeing the setlist
well when it comes to entertainment some do, like GACKT xD changed his 3 times or so, usually lol it depends on the artist tho. but most of the rock bands/acts don't.

I have a feeling it's gonbna be just band+ayu kinda thing like most of the rock bands.

i can't wait to see what songs she's choosing for this.

in my ears her heaviest songs are probably talkin'2myself , count down, microphone, rule, guilty. I think Humming would be kinda cool too since it really has this heavy sound no less than the others, plus it's fun. I think even A Song For XX might be a good choice here with a less pop-y arangement like the A BALLADS one just heavier.

I don't know about that... wouldn't it be likelier for her to perform the 'usuals' in front of casual fans? (Boys & Girls, evolution, etc...) In this case, she could start from scratch live since the fans watching don't expect her to do X or Y.

You sing your obscure tracks to your fandom and your well known tracks to people who doesn't care about you. She herself does that a lot, considering CDL has obscure tracks, AT has album tracks and A-Nation (where she shares the stage and audience) is composed mostly by classics + 2 or 3 songs from what she is promoting at the time.

If there's a chance a good part of the audience is either indifferent or unfavorable to her, the best thing she can do is remember them why they know her, in other words, overload them with stuff they know by heart being or not being her fans, liking or disliking her.^^

The last time she tried to immerse in rock, we got sunrise, sunset, SLT, the meaning of LOVE...

And a lot of her big hits have enough rock influences to work on this festival context...
