From wikipedia
Quote:
She briefly hosted her own television show, Ayuready? (October 2002), on Fuji Television. The talk show, aired on Saturday nights from 11:30 to midnight, often featured her performing songs with guests, among whom were Goto Maki, Puffy, and Akina Nakamori. To promote the program (and her album Rainbow), Hamasaki opened a restaurant, Rainbow House, on Shōnan Beach; it was occasionally used in episodes of Ayuready? After less than two years, the last episode aired in March 2004.]
RAINBOW HOUSE closed down in early September 2003.

^ It was a restaurant/beach house that was also used for filming of Ayu ready?, which opened from the beginning of July until the end of August in 2003.

This site has a kind of brief photo history of it if you're interested:
http://www.sfile.org/ayu/rainbow-house/index.html

Just click on the dates and you can see the building through taking down of the beach house.

You can also see some pictures from Ready Go! Sept. 2003 issue:
http://zyrex.org/gallery/Ayumi1/Ayum...ReadyGo/mag38/

And, the top of this page are the screenshots for the Greatful days performance she did there:
http://www.eneabba.net/ayu/video/liv...tful_Days2.htm

Someone mentioned she sang HANABI ~episode II~ there as well, but I couldn't find anything about it?
I think she may have sang more songs, but only aired that one. Otherwise, I feel like they wouldn't advertise as much as they are? But who knows haha.

She should have done it again! That would have been really cool. Even if she doesn't have ayu ready? anymore, she could have probably teamed up with some sort of beach bar in Enoshima Would have been good promotion too without her actually being present. Such potential wasted haha.

While I agree that AHS is known to do this, I think this time it's a little more understandable with how off she looks on these covers. I mean, if the majority of AHS complains when she looks flawless (which they do), it's only understandable the world will be ending when she looks a little off, as she does in these pics.

But in a photo with such a wide smile, she looks all flat and very plastic without them. Even just leaving the faintest shadow of smile lines would of worked. Everyone has them when they smile that wide, even the youngest of children - it just adds to that not-quite-human feel of the photo.

I agree. I was expecting something more like BLUE BIRD's cover. I guess she's done trying to be creative and is just going to settle with this kind of photography. I wasn't going to get this (re)release anyway, but it's a shame the covers came out like...this.

The DVD includes video clips from 10 years of a-nation lives, from 2002 to 2011, some past summer PVs, the PV for new song You & Me, which was filmed overseas, as well as “Greatful days” performed by RAINBOW HOUSE. The extremely rare collection adds up to a total of 25 tracks. (planned)
