Namie Amuro concert chronology

Live Style 2006 (billed as Namie Amuro Best Tour "Live Style 2006") was the seventh concert tour by Japanese recording artist Namie Amuro. It was the first in Amuro's series of Live Style concerts, which would be held several times throughout her career. The tour began on August 13, 2006 at the Saitama Super Arena, and concluded on November 23, 2006 at the Okinawa Convention Center, in Amuro's hometown of Okinawa Prefecture. It marked Amuro's first national arena tour since the Break the Rules Tour in 2001, and achieved the highest attendance ratings for any of her tours up to that point.[1]

Background

In 2005, Amuro released her seventh studio album, Queen of Hip-Pop.[2] The album was commercially successful in Japan and marked the beginning of her comeback, and its promotional hall tour had additional shows added due to high demand.[3] Following the announcement of her double A-side single, "Can't Sleep, Can't Eat, I'm Sick/Ningyo", which was released in May 2006,[4] it was announced that Amuro would begin a new national arena tour in August 2006. The tour dates were first announced on the March 2006 issue of Amuro's fan club magazine, Fan Space.[5]

Unlike Amuro's previous concert tours, Live Style 2006 was not associated with any album or single. The tour was held in celebration of the 15th anniversary of her debut with the Super Monkey's.[6] Former members Anna Makino, Hisako Arakaki and Minako Ameku attended one of the concerts and reunited with Amuro.[7]

Set list

The set list for the Live Style 2006 tour notably included many songs that Amuro had never performed live before,[1] including B-sides and tracks from her Suite Chic project. Additionally, she performed her then-new single "Can't Sleep, Can't Eat, I'm Sick", in both original and remixed versions, and several songs from her recent albums.[8]
