I wasn't expecting much of BALLAD and it turn out to be one of the best performances. I cried a lot ;_;!! Now I'm loving even more the album DD. Jezzz I cried of joy n happiness while watching count down *-*!!!! Is one of my favorites songs of R'n'RC album . Even Lady Dynamite is acceptable *-*! I can't wait to get my dvd DD. For sure I'll be watching this show over n over again through the year *-*!!!

I'm not saying that it wasn't edited, because every live is edited,but not in the way it has been edited recently.
that was me, i recorded the 5th oct's show vocals.

i could just tear up whenever i hear the vocals on my itouch, this time her whole concert is 100% live. i'm so glad to be part of it. (^-^)

AT05 had a lot of well executed concepts. It was the first tour to have those SPECIAL SCREENS that tied into performances and all that, so it's regarded as amaaaazzzzing. However, every tour since then seemed to have AT05 as their main inspiration when it came to the "formula" of the concert. (Cute section, sexy section, aggressive/high energy section, ballad section, "rocking out" section in a random order)

AT10 still sort of has this categorization to it, but I think she managed to make it feel fresh despite also following the formula. I think a lot of it had to do with her energy and the tracklist along with various touches throughout the concert. I wonder how Ayu will be able to top herself with POWER of MUSIC's tour~

I never thought AT05 was very good, IMO AT06, AT07, AT08 and ESPECIALLY AT10 beat it easily, but it was the first to feature Ayu's typical structure and stage setting, so it's regarded as being innovative.

^ Yeah, I think that's the main point. People will love it because it was so innovative from her previous concerts, and definetely a step forward in her lives, but I think of it like it was the basement. Since then, every concert has developed each aspect like screens, segments, structure and even stage although they've been almost the same with some variation (AT06 the screens, AT09 the stairs).

What I mean is,that it's not like all her concerts are inspired by AT05. AT05 was like a new live concept she has been using for these years which started with AT05 and it seems it's coming to an end with the use of a center stage (I have to say that I like traditional stage better...)

The opening of AT 2005 is simply epic. So far it's my favorite. I think AT 2005 is special because it somehow departs from her past tour styles. In a way I think CDL 2010~11 also does the same. I was there both on the 30th and 31st, and man, I have to say, it is so coooool. ^o^

yea, it's amazing!! when it's gonna be released??!!!

And i wanna say, Ballads is so amazing and touching.

This little storyline seems like,

midori likes maro, so she killed herself when she saw maro hugging ayu as she's dissapointed that he only loves ayu, but not her. Then later, shuya, who loves midori,killed himself too as he's traumatised over midori's death. ayu wants to stop shuya, but maro pulled her back. Both ayu and maro are really shocked to see that happening to midori and shuya,so ayu broke down into tears really badly, and maro comforted her. (but ayu likes shuya is it?? Nt too sure) so at the last part,Maro held ayu and hugged her cuz she's the one he truly love. The end.

wow, drama.. but cute.

I think its one of her best tours yet, alot better than Next Level tour. That opening was killer. My favorite segment was the arabian one, probably because the intro movie was soo cool.

Wow, it seems that this tour was supposed to be named A Museum 2010 (In the scene with her notes at the beginning of the bonus disc documentary.)

I saw the opening and the microphone performance. It is indeed the most powerful performance Ayu ever did by far.

I can't wait to see the whole thing.

AT10 is probably now my favorite concert. Its quality is of such high caliber that I don't think any other concert beats it. I mean, I do have my favorite performances from older concerts that I think were better than my favorites from this concert. But from beginning to end, her energy is like...unstoppable. The transitions were all really interesting and somehow new, even though we might have seen variations of them in the past. rimbaud was my favorite-- wadaiko + Las Vegas screens? AWESOME.

The outfits were perfect too. There wasn't a single one I didn't like, and her wig for rainy day/BALLAD turned out much prettier than I anticipated. BALLAD was easily my favorite performance of the entire set, followed by count down/memorial address.

So yeah. I'll be re-watching this concert for many, many times in the future.

Yeah, it wasn't as good as previous MCs. I guess the show was so packed, they couldn't fit much extra stuff compared to previous concerts?

AT08's a cappella performances and AT09's gesture games/oekaki battles all hold a special place in my heart, haha.

That's what I'd guess too.

Maro likes Ayu.
Ayu likes Shuya.
Shuya likes Midori.
Midori likes Maro.

Everyone is being loved, but nobody loves each other?!
