Ayu will sing alterna only if she's not going to broadcast this show

Would love a live performance for still alone, but then I remembered all those HIIIIGH notes at the end, not sure how that will work with her current voice, song is underrated but seems kinda hard to sing, so... ummm yeah, maybe not for still alone, after all.
But one of these would be definitely a good surprise and a better match for her current voice :

Liar
criminal
GUILTY
Sweet scar

Amen for so much TRUTH! Now I'm getting sad, it hurts... :no
I mean, first Rock'n'Roll Circus Tour and then Just The Beginning Tour... Oh come on gurl, stop trollin' us and give us back alterna, we deserve it!
(That performance alone was worth attending JTB chapter 2 btw, I screamed my life that night when alterna started, that song is a top10 xD)

Yes! I was not expecting it, had they nowhere on my radar. So when it started up I was like frozen, lost, like trying to piece it together in my mind. I’m like “I can’t think of the name but I know it’s something epic.” And then it hit me and I’m like “this is alterna!!!” Such a sick ass opening.

apologies, why can't see sing alterna if she is going to broadcast the show? she did that in 2006 haha.

i was semi frozen when she sang alterna in RnRC Tour 2010.. damn it was sick too! but yeah as anticipated, not released and replaced by Last angel.

Such a deception when she replaced Alterna by Last Angel (I don't like this song)
I was in Tokyo for the "final" of RnRC Tour in july (not the special tour she did in october that year) and Alterna was such a great surprise, so strong and fierce !!!

She sang it in 2006 but this song is so good it should be in more tours.

RnRC Tour (2nd April date) was actually my very first Ayu concert live in Japan and I was so amazed that I managed to hear Alterna live and then the bummer when it didn't make it into the DVD.

I have a request to you guys, I have been thinking about it for the past few years and I probably should make a separate thread for my request but I'll ask here. From each concert I have been to (CDL14-15, Just the beginning and Power of Music 2018) I managed to get the ribbon, except RnRC 2010 which was my first concert ever, I was wondering if maybe some of you have a spare ribbon from RnRC? I have several spares from AT 2018 if someone wanted to trade. I onjly have once CDL 14-15 (literally was on the edge of the cannon's range and caught the last one flying), I may have a spare from Just the beginning but I'm not sure, didn't check that box for quite a bit. Just trying my luck here.

^ or will cut it
Ayu wrote at TA that setlist is long and she need to cut it

Could somebody who managed to watch her countdown dtv stream share some information on how they managed to do it, and if vpn was needed then which one worked? That would be awesome.

I guess it needed VPN. People here from AHS who broadcasted CDL through Discord would answer you better, but as far as I remember it was necessary.

Yes, that's true. But I also saw some information on the internet that some VPNs don't work right when it comes to such practices (I might be wrong). So I'd love to know the method that seems to be working :) And I'm not active in discord's servers so that's why I asked here. There's still time so I hope sb shares it.

I know that some overseas fans were able to watch last time with a VPN, however not all foreign credit cards will work. Also, when I tried signing up, I couldn't get past the mobile number verification. So, you'll need a Japanese mobile number or some service to spoof one I guess.

Why they make it so difficult, I don't understand. Especially since it's Asia Tour and many overseas fans will attend

I saw a comment somewhere (forgot where, sorry) that dTV has some of the strictest copy protection, it blocks screen recording and also the broadcast is done in parts to prevent easily saving it. My guess would be that this is true, and with Avex being as backwards as they are they're using it trying to block people from saving the performance. It's frustrating after having a couple of concerts that we COULD easily stream that they went back to this.

and still ppl manage to record it

Which means Avex is just losing money from people who would purchase a ticket. They're so backwards.

They could do a YouTube Premium-only streaming for non-Japanese people with Super Chat allowed. They could earn money from her global fans easily.
