She kicked off this live at 18:35 and end it around 20:55, for totally 2 hours and 20 minutes. As you can see in pix below, I sat only 9 rows from main stage and 5 columns from runway. That's really great to see her very close like this.
Firstly, let started with the stage.
- stage: approx. 1m. tall
- runway: approx. 20m. long
- left substage has a big yellow moon shape for use in "Wishing on the same star"
- right substage has a pair of silver high heel shoes for use in "New Look"
- at the back of main stage there's a huge screen (much more larger than one you've ever seen before in her previous lives)
2 Dancers, one with club and one with ribbon performed in front of the red curtain which covered the stage (so amazing I think I'm watching a circus?). An introduction Video on the left and right screen beside stage. a best fiction book was opened and girl in "Do Me More"'s PV walk inside the book-shaped door. Then she walk around in the forest.
Curtain of the main stage opened, Namie sat on the black throne at the center of stair and sang the first half of "
Do Me More". And she danced during latter half .
The violet light shined over the stage, and "
Violet Sauce (Spicy)" started. The same dance choreography as her last live.
With hard drum and strong bass sound, she sang a rock version of "ALARM" with completely new choreography. And she ended the song at the edge of runway with her killer-smile.
"SO CRAZY" also arranged in a much harder drum and bass too. I really love this version of ALARM and SO CRAZY, completely new arranged and choreography, AMURO CHAN SAIKOU~.
The girl walked around and saw many pairs of shoes were dropped on the field and finally a big one popped up and danced
The main stage's red curtain closed and the right substage moved forward. The red curtain opened up and showed us a beautiful high-heel shoes shaped prop which Namie stood on. Then she sang and danced "
NEW LOOK" with smile and smile. ~Heat up the audience ^ ^~
After "NEW LOOK" she went up the top of high-heel shoe again, and music of "
Hello" stared. She sang and danced on the shoe for first half, then went down and walked to the main stage. But not only that she took off her blue outfit while walking to main stage, and picked and use a glitter cellphone which was hanged at her right hip as a prop for her performance. She ended up this song at the front of runway with her killer-smile again.
"GIRL TALK" also has a little new choreography too, she performed this song on 4m.-width runway, and her dancers danced around her. After that she walked back to main stage and finished "GIRL TALK"
She's proved that she can sing at full voice during her super steps dance. "shine more" was sung at CD-quality, I can't imagine how she can manage her breath. ^ ^
Stage became a bit dimmer, and everyone enjoyed "Full Moon" even it didn't earn new choreography.
A Star-shaped props appeared in front of the Screen (2nd floor). and there was super cute and flashy CG on screen during "
Luvotomy". She sang and danced on those stars with her male dancers. ~Heat up more and more and more~
Hold your breath and sing "Put'Em Up" along with Namie. (People around me couldn't stop dancing ~!!! Oh god, I'm so happy)
She heated up the hall more with "It's all about you". (Oh!!! please tell me why she's so powerful ...) At the end, the hall became completely dark.
Beautiful melody of piano with shooting star on the main screen, all star melted into the word "
wishing on the same star" ~ (Oh, I lose myself control). The yellow moon move forward with smoke of dry ice on the floor of left substage, after red curtain gone. She sat on the moon with Black long dress, and sang like an angel. (She hit every note of this song, so don't someone dare tell me her voice gone down)
The girl walked around and found firefly flew around a tree. She walked to that tree and saw a mirror ball-shaped fruit, then she took it....
There's something disturbed my eyes from main stage's stair. Oh when the light came up, they're 9 gold mirror big balls lied on the stair. She stepped up on the biggest one, and my favorite song "
ROCK STEADY" started.
"Let's go! darling are you ready to rock steady 1 2 3 4"♪ and she shouted
"ARE YOU READY?" out loud, and the crowd gone wild ~ HAHAHA
"
Whoaa... Every body, let's get down もうやみつきになる"♪ - everyone can't stop dancing - "
FUNKY TOWN" on gold mirror ball. Someone screamed her name over and over again ~
The crowd went wilder after the melody of
"NO" had started.
"say N.A.M.I.E" and everyone screamed ~~ I love her key-lime wristband ^ ^
Let's take a little break, sang along "SAY THE WORD - single version". She didn't dance at all. T_T And it became completely dark again.
Something popped up in the dark at the right side of 2nd floor stage. Sound of christmas bells and cute CG on screen, and someone walked in from the right side. Oh~ she worn long hair wig with huge shocking pink bow on her head and started singing
"WHITE LIGHT" on a piles of present box.
The girl walked around and found out a hole. She decided to go through that hole deeper and deeper.
All dancers came up from the side of runway holding black and red flag (US's flag-liked but instead of star they wrote the word "BEST FICTION" in top-left corner box ). They walked to the main stage and climbed the stair. Namie appeared in front of the screen on 2nd floor and sang
"Hide & Seek".
She took off her hat and sang "Queen of Hip-Pop" on 2nd floor. ♥♥♥ (a girl sat next to me, gone crazy HAHA, she couldn't stop shouting "KAKKOI" and "KAWAII", but that NOISY -*-)
"SEXY GIRL" were performed with the same choreography with A-Nation'08. But she's too sexy. (Guy sat in front of me gone wild HAHA, he screamed her name again and again)
"Want me, want me はじけ飛ぶ"♪ She sang
"WANT ME, WANT ME -single version-" ... ~all guys gone wild HAHA
More and more ... I can't stand anymore ... but she said
"I wanna taste you tonight / Hit me!"♪ and sang
"TOP SECRET" ohhhhhhh god she took my breath away. And after the end of song she disappear .....
Then she and her dancers stood on the diamond-shaped props which went up and down under the 2nd floor and fired "BLACK DIAMOND". Completely new choreography, I could die for this live ~
And the last one, colorful spectrum went up and down in the main screen, and "WHAT'S A FEELING" brought everyone to peak state ~ the crowd on stand around me waved their hands along ^ ^, the crowd on arena around me clapped over their head along ~ and the curtain came down ---- it's time for encore ~
Everyone screamed her name, clapped their hands .... a few minute later, she came back with black T-shirt (tour goods) and pink skinny jeans. On her right hip there was bag chime (tour goods). She sang
"WoWa" with POMPOM in her right hand ~ ... Then took a break to Dancers introduction. At the end, she and her dancers threw away their POMPOM to the audience ... but i missed it ~ T_ T
It's time for 1500 yen towel,
"CAN'T SLEEP, CAN'T EAT, I'M SICK" ... she's so cute ~ i can't stand anymore ~~~~
And the last one "BABY DON'T CRY", everyone sang along with her and end up with she introduced the band by herself (I can't believe that she forgot to introduce herself again -*- HAHA) and talk a little bit before climbed up the stairs, then the red curtain came again ~~~
The girl close BEST FICTION Book and said that "this concert is only a fiction"
There're about 20 of Trucks which used for deliver stage and prop in car park.
There's a big tent of Tour Goods in front of the main gate. I bought a towel (coz it will be used during "CAN'T SLEEP, CAN'T EAT, I'M SICK") ^ ^
After entered hall and wait for an hour, it started ^ ^
