A-nation Singapore

18/10/2014

So the other day I went to a-nation's first ever oversea show which was held in Singapore on the 18th of October 2014. The reason I went for this show was mainly for Ayumi Hamasaki, which I believe the same case for 80% of the attendees as well. The other acts were m-flo, Wagakki Band, Generations from Exile Tribe, Sonar Pocket and Aaron Yan.


From the start of the show till the second last act, I could still see some empty VIP seats and standard seats. When it was Ayumi's turn as the closing act (expected), the seats were all filled up and some of the audiences even went to the front just right before the barriers.


Super good view from my seat, it's actually nearer than what it looks like in the above photo.

The first artist was Wagakki Band, who performed only 4 songs. That was about 30 minutes. Shorter than what I'd expected. It's a pretty interesting band which combines the use of traditional and modern musical instruments in their songs. Though, the genre is not quite my cup of tea.

Second came Aaron Yan, from the Taiwanese boygroup Fahrenheit. Also 4 songs and not my cup of tea.

Then it was Sonar Pocket. Some of theirs song are quite ok, worth some "googling" later. 4 songs, by now, I expected 4 songs for every artist while hoping that it'll be longer for Ayumi, at least an hour since she's the headliner for this show.

Generations, it's like watching Kpop, not my cup of tea.

m-flo, kinda disappointing for me, I've come to the conclusion that I'll only like their collabs.

And the most awaited for!
Ayumi Hamasaki!!

She brought her whole band (5 instruments with 2 chorus singers) with her.
She brought a total of 8 (?) 13 dancers with her.
Her entrance was showy.
Her bandmates' costumes were flashy.
Her dancers were awesome.

One thing tho, the stage was a little small for her with all her bandmates & dancers on stage :/

And it was an hour of awesomeness. There was an encore with one song too.


As usual, no photography and videography allowed, which is especially strict for Japanese concerts.
So I'd only snap one pic of the stage before the start of the live.
