ayumi hamasaki COUNTDOWN LIVE 2019-2020 ~Promised Land~

Ayu's coming home to Yoyogi!

As to how much meaning these words carry, for the people standing on the stage, or the people gathered here with their eyes locked on that stage, even among ayumi hamasaki's long life as a musician, "today" is a day that has to be a night that has never been seen before. It opened up with that sort of extraordinary anticipation.
For just one night, so that Ayumi Hamasaki can continue to be herself, a set list was put together with songs singled out from her enormous discography, and there were numerous precisely calculated performances that should bring out their true meaning.
All the more for fans who have experienced on many occasions the unexpected moments of synchronization when ayumi hamasaki is up on stage, "ayumi hamasaki" still has not changed since her debut, and yet there was an "ayumi hamasaki" that no one has seen before.
That is what her fans will witness.

I think the only goods I want is the manju. Hopefully my friend can pick up a box... since it’s venue only it’ll sure be sold out. I just want the kinchaku to be honest lol

[Sky High]

When will she release the setlist for the concert?

[maxikot]

^ We will learn on the day of the concert.

[surrealA]

She better sing RAINBOW

I only hope that there’s a band. I need yochan!

This song is so obvious choice, especially after looking at the logo, that I think ayu will not sing it

[Emperatriz Ayumi]

According to the site, doors will be open at 20:30 and seats numbers will be provided 2 hs before the entrance. It sounds good but, do I have to go early to the stadium or is it ok to be there like 20:00? I am asking this because it's my first time attending an Ayu concert and I don't know very well all the details.

I will be visiting some places like Shibuya and Harajuku during the 31st, so I will have my power bank and digital camera in my bag. Is there any problem to enter the stadium with a camera? Of course I am not going to take pictures.

However, if I am not mistaken, there were some tours where you COULD take pictures but NOT filming. Am I correct?

20:00 is more than fine, and still quite early given the doors don't open until later. But if it's your first time it's good to go early as there will likely be lots of cosplayers, lots of Ayu vans, goods queue and probably a soba noodle stand who give out Ayu chopsticks.

Regarding the camera, most digital cameras are fine to take in as they are small size, just put them in your bag. If you had large professional camera gear on you, you would be very unlikely to bring it in.

Thanks so much for the info ❤ Regarding the camera, it's neither big nor small. It's a mddium one. However, I am thinking on leaving it at the hostel.

The ones where you were allowed to take pictures they specifically mentioned that you could only use your phone, so if the security catches you using the camera they might tell you to stop (and possibly delete your pics), or in the worst case scenario even kick you out (but that's probably if they catch you doing that more than once)

[ayuinh.k?]

I hope the band is back

[aliceshields]

No band, not live, please don’t get rid of them 🙏🏼

[Toniayu123]

Completely agree. I’d rather her get rid of the dancers instead but oh well. Wonder how her future concerts will be considering the hall tours didn’t have band right? It’s not worth going imo so I hope she at least keep them for CDLs.

[maxikot]

I absolutely love her band but it didn't bother me much when they didn't perform with her. Something felt missing although definitely not to the point of enjoying the show less.

The same goes for me. I didn't even notice they were gone for the first part of TROUBLE. Also the last CDL also featured the band and considering she has full orchestra I think the band is a given...

[ulfy01]

Why wouldn't the band be there at CDL? I would be shocked if they weren't.

I think part the reason hall tours don't have the band is space. Some of those stages are tiny. At Yoyogi though? The band is 100% going to be there.
