I always had a problem with the way ayu shows support for the LGBT community. You don't have to make such a big deal because someone's gay or trans. Timmy can wear dicent clothing and still be gay, lico can be trans and blend with the rest of the girls. Oh well.

How come didn't Licco blend in with the other girls? She had the same outfits, the same choreography and never was pointed out as trans on anything Ayu related. What else could be done?
|
Quote:
I think this speaks more about people expecting Licco to blend in than anything Ayu is doing, which is really gross and awkward of someone to say and think of a trans person. To me that reads as "Licco isn't passable as a female", and that's just a garbage person's line of thinking. |
You can't deny biology.

aloha...
so 1) Timmy dresses like the most average individual on a daily basis. 2) Ayu chooses his outfits for him, Timmy doesn't like to wear them and has to diet hard core before every tour. Aye is the one who presents him with the costumes. 3) I don't think Japanese people feel represented by him because he's a foreigner, theres the notion that foreigners can do whatever. If it was a Japanese individual then it might be more translatable to a Japanese audience. |

But as for licco, I thought she was a woman for years! I was surprised when I found out she was a trans woman. I thought she blended with the rest of the group well. |

^I kind of hoped that ourselves would be "the" song of the three legs of the tour, it was such an amazing opening! But I do hope WORDS is in the setlist, and other new songs as well if possible! |

what's the chance to have alterna at the recorded day?

Alterna!!!!
If this song gets replaced like in AT10 then I'm going to be ticked off. The set list looks great. |
I love the setlist
|
most rock setlist I ever saw
|
Quote:
|
My alterna is aliiiiiive <3
|
yaaaas love that setlist. I need a second live version of shake it in my life. and 1LOVE YES
|
Replace Shake It! with Terminal and it's perfect.
|
I'm glad the topic about Timmy and Lico changed because some people here are just disgusting...
BACK TO THE TOUR... That setlist!!!! I love the whole main part of the concert. Sooo good! Can't wait to read some reviews. |
|
Do you think they changed the photography thing because people kept uploading unflattering photos of Ayu?
|
Quote:
|
Quote:
|
Maybe the photography is just more distracting in the hall environment because it's so much smaller?
|
OMG THE SETLIST IS SO GREAT AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
|
^ Yeah, I think that's the main reason. It's a small venue and it would be bad to have a lot of cellphones pointing and flashing.

Amazingly everybody loves the setlist so much, nobody has commented on how short it is yet!
|
^ quality over quantity
|

SETLIST is great (rockish, I love that) but it is always the same songs.
Wish we had pics, too bad it wasn't allowed! |
Dearest? Free & Easy? kiss o' kill? Amazing. :love
|
Omg I blew it.
I was dancing like crazy the whole show, and afterwards in lobby a man approached me and immediately I recognized him but was afraid I was mistaken so I didn't ask. But he was with a posse and he says he saw me dancing, said they should have picked me to go on stage, asked where I'm from, my name, how to spell it, says that I must really love ayu, etc. I told him I'm going to see her again in October and he said good luck getting picked. He walked away and I googled the name of the man who I thought it was, and turns out I was correct. It was Leslie Kee. |

The setlist is great! If she replaces Shake it with Ladies night it would be perfect
|
Quote:
I saw you. A lot of Japanese were impressed with your dancing. I took a shot of Leslie and you are there together |
Was alterna rearranged like the other openings? How was the concert?
|
I've been praying for the return of alterna, and I was thinking that this tour would be a perfect opportunity to have it back given then lyrics of the song. Glad to see it back.

SO excited to see alterna, but I'm so over 1 LOVE and Mirrorcle World I can't even
|
Just saw the setlist! Wow for Alterna, Kiss o Kill, free and easy and Dearest piano version.
At least these are not the usual one. Wonder if Ayu had new arrangement for this? Just dont bother bout the encore songs lol boring nothing special |
The setlist is amazing, but the encore is meh.
|
what does the new song sound like? thats the most important part.
|
^ New song is already out online!
|
It's really weird that I was thinking I could see her throwing in a brand new song for this tour.
And I also thought how it would be amazing if she brought members from the audience up to change up how she does 1LOVE. She didn't use the male for 1LOVE, but it was the first song following picking the members from the audience so it's just super weird to me that I thought about that. |

^ I think those dates bring us up to 51 dates total...still 9 left. Another 7 days special type finale?
Interesting that she also has Christmas and NYE on the list. |
^ Yeah! I'm excited about those special dates like Christmas and New Year's. Hope she will do something thematic (as Namie did with her last Hall Tour).
I really hope she do some kind of special finale in March (that's when I'll be in Japan). |
It seems like this will lead up to a separate anniversary celebration, which is what I've been waiting to hear. As much as I'd like to go to this, I'd rather coordinate a trip for a proper 20th anniversary celebration.
|
So she's going to do CDL on 31th Dec in Tokyo
I just wonder, she's heading to Okinawa for a couple days as well ^^ |
I'm also surprised no one complained about outfit from first chapter
|
Quote:
Chapter 1: 9 dates Chapter 2: 24 dates Chapter 3: 27 dates |
^ Ahh, I was looking at the numbers wrong on page 1 of this thread...didn't realize the numbering started over for chapter 2. You're right!

And excellent setlist, except for the entire encore other than Words. :) |
Quote:
Yes, happy to see Alterna on the setlist!! (I wouldn't mind if she added Is This Love and End of the World too). Looking forward to hearing more about the new song. The only song I'm not a fan of is How Beautiful You Are. |
Quote:
|
Incredible setlist! And Leslie probably takes photos of fans that he likes, haha.
I wonder if she'll ever use him again after all that stuff that happened. |
Quote:
|
Quote:
|
Oh, just as far as for her own releases, I guess. She used him so much till that 'scandal'.
|
WHAT I THINK ABOUT LAST NIGHT SHOW. SORRY for my weak grammar.
Spoiler:

|
Any idea when the lottery for the third leg will start? or has it started? Sorry i'm so lame with the lottery dates lately lol
|
So CDL will probably be like what happened with 2003 - 2004 except this time the tour has already started. Makes sense as Ayu is touring with a show anyway through the festive period and Ayu's normal CDL venue is under renovations for the Olympics, right?
|
I'm so glad to see kill o' kill in the setlist, it's SUCH an anthem! :weep

Thanks so much for sharing your experience. Sounds like it was quite interesting and still worthwhile. |

wow yeah, I would love to hear the voice record.
I prefer to wait until all dates announced. I plan to go on April. February is still too cold for me. |

omg so pretty
|
^Yes. She looks like a princess. So cute. *^^*
|
The dress is gorgeous. *.*
|
I wonder if she'll actually do ever free again at the supposed 'resurrection'. I may eat a foot.
|
Ok can't wait for Kobe! Was expecting ballades only in chapter 2.

Also that setlist is kickin'. I can't believe she's performing Free & Easy and Dearest again! And I love how beautiful you are, I'm very glad she's singing that again too. So many great songs. And she looks absolutely beautiful in that white dress |
She has a different mic than usual.

She.got.rid.of.that.GRANDMA DRESS. I cried of happiness. So gorgeous so stunning. Yessss :luv2 :luv2:luv2 For the tour dates. Wow, first time going to have countdown in a small venue. And wonder if she would celebrate her 20th anniversary in a hall too no more arena tour... |
i think some bigger venue are still available on her anniversary, she might reserved the venue and just hold to announce later
|
She looks stunning in that dress :luv2
|
I didn't like the Part 1 setlist but this new one is really good
|
today setlist was the same
|
Isn't that the dress she wore during a live tv-performance of Dearest a couple of years ago? It had a crinoline attached to it and it got removed when she sang progress iirc....
Nevertheless, she looks stunning!!! |
