Why do so many people like "Like a doll"? It's such a painfully mediocre song (and TK's cheap sounding arrangement doesn't help at all). I will concede though that "Eyes Smoke Magic" is one of my least favourite songs on that setlist. If I could replace it with something from Love Songs I'd probably opt for Do It Again or crossroad

#Ijustcant.... She only included one song from Love songs, at this point why not change the tour name into ARENA TOUR 2012 ~Party Queen @Hotel~. It's good that she's including songs from Party Queen, but she's missing some from Love songs as well. Like if she include crossroad, blossom, and Like a doll onto the setlist then I'll shut up.

There will be endless pages of most people feeling let down with the set list. Maybe a few not. But from goods to set list, this is not Hotel Love Songs. It is Hotel Party Queen. I guess now we just have to get over our shock and deal with it, until or if they change the set list like POM.

The feeling of disappointment does suck though...

Not only that, but perhaps avex wants her to push/market the album (Party Queen).

I think that the next LOVE and Eyes, Smoke, Magic can be great on stage if she performs them like in a musical, that way non japanese people can also understand the lyrics of the songs because usually these kind of songs are performed directly. Like a theatheric perfomance of what the songs are. (well, musicals lol).
If ayu does what is written in the songs.

I like the one with her + shuya, the nanana/jacket costume, and bellhop outfit!

though I'm surprised the tour t shirts are just plain leopard print... with nothing on the front. Is there anything on the back?

She looks nice in her encore outfit. That hairstyle suits her.

Actually her tour outfits have been rather good with ups and downs, but the last two years pretty much the vast majority of outfits were really bad.

Nevertheless I can't wait to see the tour! TBH I wanted her to sing more classics as this will be my first time attending, but it's fine this way. It's awesome she is singing appears, Love song and STEP you. I'd prefer if do it again was still there though. Happening here was totally needless >_> and I am saying that regardless of the fact it was made for the tour. The tour was originally made for Love songs so considering she axed almost all the Love songs, I don't see what made her keep Happening Here.

Exactly, so, nothing new...

anyway, I really really loathe the cat-maid-polka dot disaster.


But I'm actually excited for the tour as well, though it seems like it will have many ridiculous aspects.

I'm really hoping there will be some special moments like in PoM where its just her on stage, but as this seems to be a continuation (or whatever) of CDL...I'm a little...underwhelmed.

I appreciate that she has this deep concept, but honestly, I don't really care about it. As long as we have great performances.



Shuya definitely needs new hair.

This is probably her first concert in a while to have one overarching storyline. Who'd have thought she would go so dark in this concert? I guess this may have been the original vision but with Party Queen songs instead of Love songs ones?

Considering Love Songs album theme, the concept and it's flow, I guess she was going for a very bright vision... This is most likely the Love Songs meets divorce version
