I am afraid that it will be next year, i think asia tour will be a celebration of Ayu 50th single... 3 more single to go. At bea up interview, ayu have mention abt CDL 10-11...

I don't think the concerts will be to at least November. She'll probably do another single before/after a-nation.

Well, that'd make sense for the celebration part (though I really wish a national stadium tour of the 50th single) and that way Ayu could rest a bit or dedicate more to record music/preparate CDL :yes

Though it'd mean a 15-16-month wait till the DVD :headache

^ yea~ i would say starting from oct - Nov :)
i hope it'll be late Oct on HK maybe~

any news on where in asia it's gonna be?

^ Not anything we know of...

I think that 50th single is going to be special, something like Mirrorcle World with old hits new versions ! It could be :D

And I'm expecting that the 50th single could come next spring or so...

Yeah, I know avex will do something special :).

They'd better do something really BIG for that...

The 50th single is thought to be out by the end of the of this year according to bea's UP and how Ayu said that a lot of releases will be coming.

Ayu and koda kumi are very close in # of singles...I wonder who will release the 50th first. I hope ayu will release it first and make it a special one. :D

Now I'm thinking that the Asia tour will be next year LOL also for thet 50th single thing...

and what the magazine said is... after 2 years of not going to Asia, she'll go again (sth like this)... last time was 2008... 2 more years mean 2010 without asia tour and 2011 being the come back...

let's wait ^^

It seems that Kuu releases singles at a faster rate than Ayu...why is that?

Kuu doesn't write her music as far as I know. So she can take a song that's been written, record it and bam, new single. Ayu writes her lyrics, so she takes more time between releases.

But I think Ayu is more delicate-worked, so it maybe takes a bit longer for her to write before the song gets released out into the public...

no way! For all her songs?

if im no wrong she does compose her songs as well like Ayu. the different is Ayu always release double A-side while Kuu more often release single A-side so we can say they are both same
