YUI は、YUI です。
English translation here 「1987年3月26日、福岡県糟屋郡古賀町に生まれ、母一人の手で育てられた。 高校へ進学したが、学費を稼ぐためにアルバイトをしなければならず、1、2時間程度の睡眠しか取れない中、彼女は本当の夢を見つけた。 音楽という夢を追いかけるために、高校を中退し、ギターを習い始めたのが16歳のとき。 そして、ついに慣れ親しんだ故郷を離れることとなる。東京へ単身移り住み、2005年2月23日、"Feel My Soul" でメジャーデビュー、この CD は、10万枚を売り上げた。 これが彼女のアーティストとしての旅の始まりである。 そう、彼女の名は YUI。大きな夢を抱えての旅立ちだった。」 さて、"以前の YUI" について話す人たちの言う、その時代に遡ってみましょう。 彼女の旅路は、"It’s Happy Line"、"Feel My Soul"、"Tomorrow’s Way"、そして "LIFE" と共に出発を迎えます。 ギターに夢を詰め込んだ彼女の、強いアコースティックギターサウンドは、まさに「これこそが YUI」というに相応しい世界感を持っています。

HOTEL HITS Osaka Report! (2010.10.01)
Report made by the lucky MonkOfWar The set list was nearly identical to the Ichihara report written elsewhere. Unforunately I can't tell you the content of the MC parts.... The YUI fans were mostly high school age kids, mostly wearing HITS tour t-shirts or bearing the towel. There was someone wearing a third tour ILY t-shirt, which was better designed than the HITS one. Before the concert started, there was a continuous animation of a sunny day on a mountainside as seen through window panes. The stage was like the inside of a log cabin, with an artificial stairs on the left and couch + fake fireplace on the right. When the lights went out, the screen animation changed to that of a dark thunderstorm. The audience rose and cheered as the band members came in through the stage side doors. Lastly, YUI made her appearance at the top of the moveable stairs!!!! 1st song. again ２nd Song Rolling star ３rd Song It's all too much These were played one after the other without stop. Everyone was standing and clapping along the songs. YUI was using her 2 colour sunburst Stratocaster for these. First MC - sorry can't tell what she was saying.... ４th Song Laugh away ５th Song Parade YUI picked up her Martin acoustic for these. As far as I can remember YUI at this point asked everyone to sit. Of course, in this interval folks were calling out YUI and the band members by name. For Parade, the tv screens showed Osaka's streets. Must have been the area outside Osaka - Umeda stations. MC. Band members introduction - again, I can't tell the exact script. ６th Song Cinnamon 7th Song Please Stay With Me Somewhere here there must have been the phone skit. Don't know what it was about, but I don't think it was Sony boss like in Ichihara. Continues under the cut
