Excited for the COUNTDOWN concert. Going to apply for the ticket lottery since I'm in Tokyo over New Years. I already have a ticket for the concert in Ibaraki but with my bad/good luck I'll get a ticket.

Last year I got a ticket for her (non)New Years concert in Tokyo but paid like 3 times the normal price from a dude outside the venue.

Welp I don’t like the set list at all...

Lady dynamite, aeternal, the way I am, you, merry go round, now & 4 eva and love song are the only songs I’m interested in seeing...

Not surprised it’s Tim-centric. His persona will continue to make me cringe, but that’s the way it is I guess...

Agree, can't wait for this Timmy-era to be over, I loved him in PoM 2011 but he does take the spotlight form Ayu :/

At least this setlist looks different and please let it be full version of YOU!!

Hmmm, not sure if I like the setlist tbh. I mean, of course I haven't watched the concert and it might work live but looking at it I just don't feel it. Wish there was more of A ONE, sixxxxxx and MIJ songs than Colours, especially cause these from Colours are not my fav from the album... And I hope she adds WORDS later on

Ok, I need to hear how Boys & Girls ~ Merry Go-round sounds like now

xLuna&1LOVE · #6 19th October 2018, 04:11 PM

Wow no evolution~SURREAL~evolution?! Haha!
And lots of lots of recent songs instead of the classics! I am loving it! Sounds like a very girl-empowering live show and I am encouraging that.

Anyone knows what she was wearing??

adrtwb · #7 19th October 2018, 04:29 PM

I would die for “YOU”

hud · #8 19th October 2018, 04:32 PM

amazing setlist! I love Colours so I'm loving it!

also I hope Boys & Girls ~ Merry-go-round is the new staple medley cause we needed a new one lol

alternarist · #9 19th October 2018, 04:43 PM

definitely happy to see songs like Lady Dynamite, Survivor, Startin' and YOU!

Looks promising!

This setlist is amazing!!!

AyuCanada · #11 19th October 2018, 05:05 PM

Not my kind of setlist, and I feel less than conviced about the Timmy show, but since Iast year was all about ballads (and I loved it) I understand the uptempo tour. Was the band on stage?

no band

ayumi_ed · #13 19th October 2018, 05:23 PM

With PoM focusing on her classics, a tour with songs from her recent works is refreshing!

SunshineSlayer · #14 19th October 2018, 06:09 PM

I'm so-so on the setlist; a couple of gems in there, but most have been overdone ad naseum over the last few years. Also, how is Words not on the list? lol

I DO like that she is finally doing something different with Boys & Girls though.

voltron · #15 19th October 2018, 06:26 PM

I really feel like her TA tours in 2015 & 2016 were to "experiment" with certain songs in a smaller venue, knowing that she'd have hall tours in her future. From this setlist, she performed 9 between the two tours for the recorded version, and at least 10 overall (Last Angel was performed the day before the finale in 2016, but swapped for 1 Love in the finale). 3 are completely new songs. So that leaves 6, most of which have been performed recently in other tours.

All that said, I'm sure the setlist will evolve a bit, and she is choosing songs that she feels confident in performing and that will work together, especially for when you are there in person.

Sounds like a show that it would be fun to attend and dance along, but not as fun to watch on DVD.

mi|kshake · #17 19th October 2018, 08:08 PM

Setlist is looking good although XOXO feels like a "waste" to me, as in, there could be so many other better songs in it's place.

Loving the combo of WATQ and Survivor although disappointed that there's no band. The band seems to be there less and less often recently. I hope this doesn't become permanent.

She's touring was too often nowadays, I think she's preserving them from getting a burnout. I don't even know how her dancers keep up with rehearsing and touring non stop lol

I would suggest this is the new normal - likely the band will only be at big shows and Ayu's mostly going to be doing halls now.

Such a shame. Ayu's band are a huge part of her live shows for me. I was wondering if it was something to do with the budget as well.
