Of course not all ! I just generalized ^^ but look at the avex singers and a lot of popular singers or even less popular ! They have tours every year and I don't think they have more excuses than Ayu to make one ? This is what I want to explain lol but I agree with you nonetheless.

Aw... this is kinda sad. Why is the tour not doing well?

Btw what are TA updates?

i don't think it was a joke.... they probably didn't expect things to go that way. I mean u can't really predict stuff like that. Also they can totally use the voting for future to see what people really would love to hear...

So that obviously sucks the tour may end early, but would that mean the dvd would be released sooner?

Updates on the TA site. This year, they've been posting updates regarding the sale of same-day tickets, which mostly happens when there are unsold tickets on hand.

They've posted the updates for the shows at Yokohama, Osaka, Aomori, Fukui, Hiroshima and Shizuoka. That's 12 out of 16 shows so far which did not manage to finish selling tickets.

In comparison, HLS tour last year had 34 shows, 7 of which were additional shows. Same-day tickets were only available for 2 out of those 34 shows.

ayu probably won't be adding additional dates if the tour is not doing well, especially at the bigger and more 'popular' locations like Osaka and Yokohama.. It's quite a serious issue if you consider that her tours used to be completely sold out within hours of release for every single show.

Really interesting and sad what you say, Misa... Ayu needs a change, I guess she expected a lot of non-casual listeners to attend her concerts as it was a BEST, but she had to face the fact that the concert turned out to be boring for her fans (or whatever made low the attendants)

Everything seems to be so tricky right now. I'm sure that it's all due to several factors, starting with the Maro thing (Yes, this ghost just keeps coming back for more, and the fact that he is trying to step on ayu's face and start his own "career" makes things even worse), her vocals not being what they once were, the tired ass vibe that I'm getting from the costumes and the overdone format of the concert are just a few that come to mind.

I hope she realizes that she can't rely on the same or similar costumes, which keep getting worse every year btw, on the same overdone songs aka evolution~SURREAL~evolution, Boys & Girls, Humming 7/4 just to mention a few, and giving the spotlight to her dancers ain't cutting it either (I've been noticing this for quite a while, they are giving way too much spotlight to them and it's wrong. They should be in the background, adding to the show not stealing the show, which is what they've been doing for years and even in the DVDs I've noticed, and that stupid shirt with all the dancers... just no).

I guess she needs a fresh start, and by that I mean that she needs to reinvent herself again, like how she did back in the day. She hasn't been reinventing herself properly ever since A BEST 2 was released IMO.

IMO, Party Queen was quite a new start for Ayu ! It was so different and so good ! Too bad that Japanese fans didn't like it and that Ayu didn't go on this way !

^indeed! i thought she's gonna go rebelling against the industry. But then LOVE again happened. which wasn't bad but it was REALLY soft. Even tho i liked most of teh songs.

i think the only thing what would be reinventing, would be going PLAIN. Small accoustic lives? smaller venues? like a total oposite from what she used to do? I think if she tries to pull something else people would start saying that she's trying too much and that kind of stuff.

also the vocals, i actually love them. In my ears they're some of the best she's had...I was absolutelly horrified when Love songs came out only a few songs for me were bearable to listen to because of her vocals being so um so forced, now everything i listen from PQ to LOVE again is like heaven they flow so nicelly and effortlesly to me, i hope it stays like that. I am however not sure about her live vocals these days.

Actually i think her music always had a classical wibe mixed in it just wasn't so obvious. Lots of her balads has quite a classical feeling to me. IN LS it's just more obvious, but I dunno i wasn't a fan f Love songs at all and i dn't think i will ever be mainly because of her vocals.

I'm kinda sad now...

I don't think there is anything wrong with her music and I am not really sure what would be smart to do next.
