ARENA TOUR 2009 A ~NEXT LEVEL~ setlist and pictures [II]

[zyoeru]

I think I'm going to add my two-pennies-worth.

1. Set List:
To be totally honest, I'm pretty happy with the set list, although maybe it could use a little revising. I'm not too mad about Days though. I'm glad to see she's performing HOPE or PAIN again.

I have to agree, the ballads part is pretty messed up. It should have gone:
HOPE or PAIN
Days
GREEN

I'm not too thrilled about evolution, I love it, but she should give it a break sometimes.
I'm really happy to see MY ALL is going to be sung again. ^_^
I'm pretty upset about Curtain call being an encore song though.

I don't really have any beef with her performing songs from PCDL. It's not like she's had a major amount of time for preparation.

2. Costumes:
Let me start by saying, I don't care if she's recycled costumes, I'm her fan. Whatever she does is fine by me, if she'd have had a long time to prepare, maybe I would be a little angry. But to be fair she hasn't had a whole lot of time.

My favourite two outfits have got to be the encore outfit, and the leather jumpsuit (HOT).
I'm not too mad about the puffy, white dress, nor that ugly purple jacket. :|

Her cheerleader outfit is cute.
The metal bodice thing is also really hot.
I like the white suit.
The pink dress is elegant I think.
The leather suit-thing is really...wow. ROFL.
The outfit people are calling the military outfit is VERY hot too.

3. Stage/Props/etc.:

I have to say that the stage looks really good, even though I guess it's kind of simple, I love the stairs. ^^

4. I think her vocals can't be too bad, as no one has complained, so I'm thinking that she's sung well, which is the most important thing.
Also, no one is reporting that she's messed up lyrics/forgotten lyrics that I've seen. So I'm also guessing she's not lip synced yet. Which is surprising. But I'm GLAD.

So all is hopefully going well. I wish people would be happy, a lot of her "fans" here seem to only like complaining about her. Some "fans."

I agree with Furashubakku, the ballad section is pretty messed up.

Putting GREEN right after HOPE or PAIN won't work I think, music style-wise the two songs are extremely different

I think she could do this :
-ballad section
11. HOPE or PAIN
12. Days
-
13. GREEN
14. evolution

From GREEN to evolution she could do it like Free & Easy~evolution, and adding one more costume to the show, the covering one for GREEN and put the evolution one inside.

I think if I could advise her, it would be like revise costumes especially after the sexy session (In The Corner's Suit, Ballad dresses, evolution-SIGNAL, The SCawaii jacket and NEXT LEVEL one)

I really hope she do some evaluation based on the fans reaction, ticket sales and etc so that she could get a clearer picture about the concert.

I don't want to demand her so much because of the lack of time and such, I'm proud of her as always but these things are uneasy for me, she never do such big costume recycling on the past years for one concert
