Even though Namie has a lot of dance numbers, there's nothing really flashy or anything like that -- YET.

Probly because we expect too much from ayu..? I have this common thought as well. I dun expect much from hikki's live, and to be honest I haven't watched her Bohemian and UNITED concerts because I rather listen to the vocals than just watching her standing there and singing. I wasn't planning to watch the live stream because the same reason. Somehow I clicked the link during the mid of the concert because I thought, "hey it's live so probly it's exciting!" Watching her live (even tho it's just streaming) was much more emotional than I expected. All of the sudden my mind went through from the time I started listened to Automatic in 1999 and so on.
For ayu... I know that she's hard working, trying her best to give a fantastic concert every single time. But since MY STORY tour she has been using the same formula every single time (large screen, lots of visuals, her dancers running around, lots of gimmicks, etc.). The formula is getting old and her lives just don't attract me anymore. That is why I feel more excited to see that she's doing a different type of tour this time. I think I will enjoy her new live more than the circus type at this moment.
My brother doesn't mind watching hikki standing there, doing nothing but singing as well. And he doesn't even bother about ayu's concerts because he thinks they're so boring...
