I'm sure a part of it also has to do with fans. A lot of fans crossover between these artists, and Ayu is the most recognized out of all three.

I think the comparison between them went something like:

Namie tours very frequently, releases new material infrequently.
Ayu tours frequently, releases new material frequently.
Koda tours infrequently, releases new material very frequently.

That's not true. Kuu's Bon Voyage tour last year had over 50 dates as well as the Dejavu tour in 2011. She tours every year although she may not play to as many people but she spends more time touring with more dates during her hall tour than any of Ayu tours since she wants to be close with her fans.

So many reports about kuu and amuro attending ayu's concert. but, yet no visuals to confirm it .

[susiowong]

Namie Amuro + Hatsune Miku? I don't know what to think.

[maze]

That stage is insane @_@ I love my kuu

[freedreamer]

[Corvina]

So lots of collab performances coming!
And great promotion for Summer of Love!

[~StarCatcher~]

Sooo cool. This will be awesome.Even Sean Paul will be there!?!? WOW

So we will most defninitely see LOADED, Poppin' love cocktail, ?Candy?, Bling Bling Bling, etc.

[chocopockymaster]

When I saw the Koda Gumi email this morning I almost started hyperventilating lol Sounds awesome! I hope it gets released or at least shown on TV

[Gustavopc]

That sounds SO COOL! Does it say how long the show is gonna be? I'm so curious about this omg

btw tour ends this month, then there's Asia Live and then this, she's working the hell out of her on concerts

[Corvina]

No, it doesn't say anything about length.
But it will probably be at least the length of a normal concert (2,5 - 3 hours) or she wouldn't even got a seperate date to begin with.

I wonder - all those collab guests, will they get time to perform own songs as well? I thinl so or it would be a bit of a waste. With that the date might be even longer than 3 hours.

[Gustavopc]

I googled DJ HASEBE and Ima sugu hoshii appeared as one of the related songs, but I can't listen to it rn. Maybe he remixed the original song or Kuu's and that's how they'll collab? Or could it a "DJ Time" like on Premium Night?

[Corvina]

Ima sugu hoshii is actually his song - it's from one of his albums from 2000, he wrote it.^^
As I said, they'll probably add more stuff fotr the concert together.

And there are still more guests to be announced.
Excited!

[KuuXAyu-fan]

It would be cool if we got a new collab at the show or even Ayu at the show. (let me dream )

Hopefully it'll be released on DVD with the next album/single.

Ooooh, nice, thanks for clarifying I knew Kuu's wasn't the original, but had no idea who did it hahah

[LiDaYu]

maybe he could be present for the music and the songs transitions (like on the remix albums...)

in collaboration we could wait :
TEEDA (Poppin’love cocktail)
AK-69 (Bling Bling Bling)
Blistah (Candy, So nice)
Sean Paul (Loaded)

MISONO (It's all love)
Tohoshinki (Last angel)
MEGARYU (Heat)
OVDS (Crank Tha Bass)
KM MARKIT (Hot Stuff, Rainy Day)
EXILE (WON'T BE LONG)
Ishii Tatsuya (Kamen)

...

Others collaboration with Color the cover and eternity songs/artists, or maybe live featuring (Chara, ...)

I'm sure I forgot some... but I'm already excited !

[Gustavopc]

^ Sometimes I forget how many collabs she has omg If I could chose two other guests, I'd want her to perform either Swallowtail Butterfly or Atashi Dakishimetai N Darou with Chara again, and also Fergie

It'd be interesting if the guests performed a solo song before/after singing with Kuu, so she could have time for breathing and changing outfits... Can't wait to see how this concert is gonna work omgg

[LiDaYu]

to keep japanese artists I will see KM MARKIT and MEGARYU ♥

[Corvina]

Let's get EXILE, they're lablemates, and the concert would be sold out within a minute. xD

If I could make a wish, I'd love MEGARYU for Heat and LISA. I mean LISA wrote one from grow into one for Kuu and she's the one rapping in it, would love see them perform it together in full!

[Lee^ChaN]

A~ I guess I can just forget my plan for a trip in August..
Definitely can't miss this out..
money... summer bonus.. bye~

[Diva_br]

Probably Misono will be in the event, because -via LINE- she (misono) mentioned something like that.

(I can't remember the words in the message, but it was something like that xD )
