What would be your perfect way to end the 10th year anniversary celebration?

[ed_win]

This is my take on “How would be your perfect Ayu concert??” posted by nagamori_etsuya a few weeks back, but to be more specific; What would be your perfect way to end the 10th year anniversary celebration?


Technically Ayu’s 10th Anniversary doesn’t ends till the 8th April 2009, so I’m suggesting another arena concert beginning of 2009 should be the perfect way to end the celebration. To make things more interesting, I complied and designed a concert with the perfect track list with interludes, a concert description (including ideal costumes) and stage design (with pictures).Feel free to give critic and comments, and I would like to see your take on the topic. Enjoy.

----------------------------------


1. LABYRINTH
2. Mirrocle World
3. evolution ~ Surreal
4. Catcher In The light
5. Trust
6. everlasting dream
7. fairyland
8. far away
9. BLUE BIRD
10. taskinst
11. game ~ 1 LOVE
12. never ever
13. tasking
14. Voyage ~ HEAVEN
15. CAROLS
16. neverending dream
17. a song for XX
18. Boys & Girls ~ UNITE


----------------------------------

The concert starts off with LABYRINTH as the opening track as the curtain rises to set the stage for the opening tune of Mirrocle World, instantly once the verse starts, all the light is shine towards the middle of the stage, where Ayu is strapped onto a platform with moving rings simulating the universe.
Costume: Silver outfit (similar to is this LOVE? / (miss)understood outfit from Arena 2006 Tour)

Spoiler:

----------------------------------
Right after the Mirrocle World ends, the stage goes dark, and Ayu starts singing evolution follows by Surreal in a desert backdrop, and follows by Catcher in The Light interlude preparing the stage for the next song.

Spoiler:

----------------------------------
The stage is set with a 2 tier platform with numbered doors on both floors, trust starts playing and, Ayu appears from door 1 and goes searching for all her female dancers numberd 1 to 4, and paired them up with the same number of the male dancers, once completed, Ayu finshes the song, and exits to door 10.
Costume: Something cute and simple.

Spoiler:

----------------------------------
Once Ayu exits the door, water starts cascading down the platform from one end to the other end, creating a giant waterfall. Fairyland starts playing and Ayu appears, performes the song and dances with a entirely new routine.
Costume: White beach outfit ( similar to fairlyland PV)

Spoiler:

----------------------------------
far way starts playing next ,as the platform elevates to show a surreal/peaceful backdrop. Ayu starts walking back and forth on a converyer belt, and sings a bossa nova version of far away.

Spoiler:

----------------------------------
Ayu ends this segment of the concert with BLUE BIRD on a beach backdrop with fake coconut tress.

Spoiler:

----------------------------------
Task(inst) is played while a message telling everyone to put on their 3D glasses (yes, 3D glasses are provided). Ayu appears in a steel ball hanging over the stage, while “another ayu” is projected on the screen in 3D, which seems to be controlling the ball which Ayu is in. GAME is sang follow by 1 LOVE, and once the song finishes, and the stage goes dark.
Costume: Black leather outfit

Spoiler:

----------------------------------
Once the lights comes back on, Ayu is now placed inside a prison and her dancer is places inside another bigger prison. Ayu tried to escape while singing never ever, and complete disappeared in the thick cloud of smoke as the song finishes.

Spoiler:

----------------------------------
Ayu appears from the middle of the stage, dresses in a kimono costume, starts singing Voyage, follows by HEAVEN , while the stage and projection emits a calm and hopeful feeling to the audience. Ayu sings the last chorus of HEAVEN and turns and walks into the projection screen (the screen splits apart to make a small exit point)
Costume; Kimono (similar to one at Asia Tour 2007)

Spoiler:

----------------------------------
CAROLS music starts playing and Ayu appeared from a corner, walks to the carousel, sat on one of the horse, and starts singing the verse and immediately the carousel lights up and rotates. Ayu ends the song by reclining on the horse and sleeps.
Costume: White outfit (Similar to the CAROLS single cover)

Spoiler:

----------------------------------
The neverending dream interlude starts playing and Ayu appears elevated in the middle of a picture frame, and sings a song for XX, while a series of graphic is projected in the frame behind her.

Ayu is lowered down from the picture frame to the stage, as the stage curtain rises, to present a huge Ayu Logo in the middle of the stage. She stripes of her coat, to a colorful fun outfit, and sings Boys & Girls, follows by UNITE! Ayu completes the concert by introducing her dancer and band members and skips off the stage, giving a flying kiss.

I did the modeling in Rhino 3, rendered in 3D studio Max 9, and additional elements / touching up in Photoshop CS 2.

I only started listening to Ayu's song after the release of Memorial Address back in 2003. Most of my favorite asongs are then after, besides a song for XX and M. I'm thinking of replacing STEP you with Trust/Depend on you and walking proud with Far away.

Those are so cool!Fly high should be in the tracklist!

[Max_ZZZ]

DEFINENTLY AN ALBUM
i need new ayu

4. Interlude/WHATEVER
5. TO BE (10th Anniversary Version)
6. End roll (10th Anniversary Version)
7. starting over/Duty
8. Key (Original Version...oh snap)
9. End of the World
10. taskinlude/I am...
11. no more words
12. Dearest
13. everlasting dream/Real me
14. RAINBOW
15. HANABI
16. No way to say
17. ourselves
18. Catcher In The Light/About You
19. INSPIRE/GAME/my name's WOMEN (Medley)
20. Moments
21. tasking/STEP you (DJ Taki **** Remix)
22. alterna/(miss)understood/is this LOVE? (Medley)
23. criminal
24. Not yet/Startin'
25. 1 LOVE/kiss o' kill (Medley)
26. JEWEL
27. Marionette -Prelude-/Marionette
28. talkin' 2 myself
29. untitled～for her～
30. Mirrorcle World

Encore:
31. Who...

[Ayumi_lover]

[SURREAL__RAINBOW]

omg!
those are pretty good ideas!!



what about part of me too?? ^^

[prussian blue]

wow the graphic is so cool! i like it so much! and i found the thing behind looks like the opening of beijing olympics 2008, but still its a very good job! the fairyland is really pretty!

[ed_win]

I've decided to change the track list after listening to Voyage live at the 21st HK concert. It sounds so good live that it deserves to be included into my ideal concert. I've made a few other changes as well.

5. STEP you >>> TRUST

8. walking proud >>> Far Away

14. JEWEL >>> Voyage

[qwerty]

I really like the diverse tracklist, and I love your ideas. Nice job!

Can I just say...your stage ideas are awesome
Really great to read.

[alternarist]

oh wow. if i could have a picture of my own concert, it's gonna be as good as urs!

but not as extravagant.

[terra]

That's Indeed a very good job!!! I really like it! and your tracklist seems very elaborate, I love your designs...I only could draw mine at paper with pencils...

I'll post mine later,,

[waterballoon]

Whoa I love those pictures, and I really like the GAME/1 LOVE stage concept! Omg 3D glasses like HOW COOL IS THAT?
