Do you like Ayu touring for so long?

Every year it seems the tour stretches from April - November..

I wish she wouldn't and would do more other things but whatever...

Release two or three albums a year?

the longer she tours and sales out the better for her.
touring is how must artist make a bulk of their money.

and with her sales not as big as they use to be, she's got nothing better to do.

I do wish she would start releasing singles again however.

Doesn't bother me any. Gives me more chances to see her since I never go to Japan the same time of the year every time.

The length of her tour doesn't bother me too. It's her way to spend a lot of time with her fans which is a good thing.

And she's probably making a lot more money touring for a few months, so yeah..

It's the only chance she has to gain a lot of money actually, i'd prefer her to be on tour just 6 months so she could have time to focus on new releases but it's not realistic anymore

tbh I think she tours too long, but nowadays it's the only way for her to make money, so what can I say... I think it's good for her Japanese fans, but for us... well, I think it seems like she's out of the spotlight because of tours. but in fact, she's still very popular artist, all her concerts seem to be sold out. and as I watched her recent a-nation show, she's still very very big in Japan.

I don't mind it, I just wish I could attend.

Wouldn't mind using some of that time to create new music for singles/albums, but I mean...she still sells out every seat at every tour date, and rather quickly, right? That's a crazy cash cow

I don't like her touring so long, though I agree that it's probably because it's the best way to make money nowadays. I think she needs time to take a break, good for creativity and her voice too.

Not EVERY seat. When I went, I sat in the arena section, and about four or five seats next to me were empty.

It's good for me though, because I can move around so much! LOL

P.S. Tour goods are also a crazy cash cow. So many people buy a lot of them! And the prices are pretty high.

Well, if she doesn't get tired and as long as she wants to tour, I see no problem with long tours. I'm sure it's fun for her. : D

I guess it's a bad thing because it can be more strenuous than actually doing her 'day job'. But if she came to Canada.. then I don't think I would care anymore XD

I think it's great she tours a lot. I think it's when she feels closest to her fans. Fans seem to love it too so everybody wins.

Yeah, I gotta agree...it's not like she does a whole lot of promotional events. Tours are a nice way to see people.

I think maybe we should be lucky she has a tour every year and for so long...a lot of artists, and especially established artists, don't.

I dun really like that. I hoped she appears more on variety shows and perform there live. It would be great if she can do another AyuReady. haha. Then I would have something nice to watch, especially her interaction with other artistes.
