a-nation 08 and the Ayu Museum
Monday, September 1st, 2008
As Avex’s summer concert series draws to a close, its biggest stars came out to steal the show. Ayu’s set included an enthusiastic performance of “AUDIENCE” in the crowd.
The Ayu Museum has actually been online for awhile but I’ve been reluctant to talk about it because it both had crippling usability issues and didn’t appear to be updated. However, the Ayu Digital Museum — while still stalling at times — has been updated to feature all of her music videos, commercials, and behind the scenes footage. Now virtually every video or music recording Ayu has graced can be streamed from ayu10th.com (…when it loads).
