I would have loved to enjoy it but there were so many distracting people surrounding Ayu, trying to look emotional.

Ayu + Tetsuya & her band would have been the perfect constellation for me. Or just Ayu and Tetsuya in a piano duet...
I think she feels like she needs to fill the stage for the concert to be enjoyable, but she doesn't. There has to be a balance between the number of people on stage and the song. My Story tour and premium countdown live are good examples of that I think.

I would LOVE a stripped down Ayu and Tetsuya show. They have enough songs together that it would easily work.
