I'm a big fan of the more risk-taking shows like PCDL, the totally out-of-nowhere left-of-field performances. I'd rather see her perform a song she hasn't sang for years than see her do bloody SURREAL again.
I see you point here, but it's a good example of the difference between Japanese fan's point of view and Overseas fan's point of view.
The japanese fans DO want her to perform songs like evolution, SURREAL, and cheesy-ballad songs with a lot of dramatic aspect. That seems boring to us, foreign fans, but it's basically not the same culture. Japanese like different things, and she has to please them in priority, since they are the core of her fanbase. If she wanted to please every fan of her, she would make a World Tour with a totally different tracklist's style.
