Actually the only dates of the Arena tour 03-04 on 2003 were December 30th and 31st... =/
So we didn't get a Countdown live 2003-2004... We got the AT instead

Wow, so the decision to not have Subaru at this year's tour was Ayu's decision to begin with and that he was not needed for this tour or something like that. For Kayanocchi and 2-YAN, they seem to have decided to not participate on their own. However, they all seem to say that if they are needed in the future, they will be back...?

I wonder what Ayu's reason for this was. Maybe because he had been around a while and she wanted to freshen things up?

[Polyrhythm]

This has nothing to do with Ayu but does anyone know why everybody seems to be doing the circular center stage these days? o_o Fad?

[TeamAyu2004]

^ i wonder if it has anything to do with spacing??
You can fit more people into the area?

Trend...
and it really supports a bigger audience^^

[Polyrhythm]

I think it sort of ruins the visuals lol...well Ayu's tour is supposed to be more stripped down so it doesnt matter....but for other artists...I just keep thinking....wouldn't a whole chunk of the audience be looking at their butt the whole time? @_@

W/e. Anyway, I THINK the setlist is lovely...it's nice to see her do something nice for Japan but I hope she goes back to the Love songs theme at some point. I really think that was the best album she's had in a while.

Some people may like butts.

I wonder if Ayu will try performing all 50 singles at some point in a cappella post-forgiveness....

[Bad Wolf]

that would be awesome ;;

AT03-04 was because it started as a CDL and then was upconverted to an ARENA TOUR.

She also had done A MUSEUM that year instead of a normal tour.

I think it went something like...
CDL02-03 -> focus on AYUREADY -> A MUSEUM -> CDL03-04 / AT03-04?

Since we are VERY close to a new thread, I am going to make the new thread for POWER of MUSIC information~

Some information to leave on:
- Ayu "changed outfits" from the longer skirt to the short skirt for the summer medley onward

11. Moments
Arrangement was like MY STORY Classical. Ayu's higher register was very beautiful.

12. vogue
13. Far away
14. SEASONS
It was thought that this trilogy would never be performed together again. Many were shocked.

15. Bold & Delicious
There was a bit of a talk with fans before this song? Different sides of the arena were to sing 'ya ga da wo etc.' and the song was a bit of a ballad arrangement.

16. Mirrorcle World
The intro of the song had a cheer of some sort, and her voice was very cool. Rockish feel to the song and fits Ayu's voice well.

17. UNITE!
18. evolution
19. Born To Be...
Ayu went down to the runway during Born To Be... and was crying. This is the set of songs where she introduced the band members and dancers. People were really energetic and the curtain lowered at the end of Born To Be...

20. a song is born
Curtain rose, and this song started. Ayu was crying towards the end of the song, and fans were to join in for a 'lalalala' session a la SEVEN DAYS WAR at AT10, I believe.

[AyuGAME]

^i always feel amaze by how dicipline Japanese is...

[MissElin_]

Stage, pretty much as expected then.

But I can see the Love Songs logo (but the lion is reversed??) in the far left... So, they are still doing that or...?

That looks like it's from Music Station.

Anyway, I'm looking forward to the concert to be honest. Ayu's one of those people who can command a stage with little or no props. She's not one of the top performers in Japan for her special effects, giant props and dramatic scenes sorry to say My only thing is, if she were to pick one Love Songs track, I wish it were Love song. When I think of the power of music, that's the first song to pop into my head. Plus it would be nice if she had a small MC just to give a few encouraging words to the audience. As far as the setlist, I'm looking forward to forgiveness, monochrome, Far away, and Born to be... the most!
