I don't know why but once I started watching lives of the past, I also watched the ones from the other years too.
I continued with the DVD of "PRIME OF LIFE" and "ageha" and there's a huge change in performance style between "PRIME OF LIFE" and "ageha".
"ageha" was a live that evolved for us to reach our current style.
An audition was carried for the dancers as well as us for the first time.
Honestly, it made me nervous and guilty judging people who are more skilled than me.
But even dancers, each one is different with varying styles they're good at and I have to confirm which dance is within their range.
Rather then 6 people with similar styles, it's better to have 6 people's individualities who could dance well to the choreography and obtain a balanced shape.
The dancers and band aren't just decoration ne.
Just creating a stage together with people who commands respect would result in a good live and I, myself, could mature.
And slowly, choreographer KEN-kun started participating with production and choreography around this time.
The choreography for "Lil' Crazy" and "Color me" is pretty much by KEN-kun.
"Party down" is the combined effort of KEN-kun and NABE-kun!
Personally, I liked the flow of "song for you" and the production of the dance corner!
Well, I've gone over the history of w-inds.' lives and the DVD of that winds.' summer tour this year "Seventh Ave." will be releasing on December 17th. (A passing advertisement)
This year's live was created with us taking it easy, having a theme and a lot of it includes free-style.
It's mainly what a block of my mind is made of.
The good thing about free-style is that each time we dance for everyone on that day, our way of dancing is different.
On the whole, I was personally into it during "SHINING STAR"~"NEW SAY" and "I'm a Man"~"Urban Dance"!
The choreography was cool and there were a lot of individuality!
I also like "SHINING STAR" choreographed by ACHI-kun and the production was as spirited as a overseas star's.
"New Day" choreographed by NABE-kun was basically only for the first version and chorus while the rest is free-style and I like how everyone's free style merge to form a dance.
The choreography of YwKI-kun's "I'm a Man" is also awesome.
But my heart was pounding over whether or not I'd fail the hat part.
"Urban Dance" was by Naoto-kun who also did "Ameato" and that atmosphere and production were united and worked.
"Kirei da" was also great!
The arrangement changed and even the choreography was renewed to a new version by TATSUO-kun & YOSHIO-kun so the feel of it changed!
That live's DVD will be releasing on December 17th so look forward to it!
Actually, I've been talking too much recently ne.
It was rude of me.
Those who also read my blog today, thank you very much.
