This tour is notable for its setlist keeping in tradition with other showcases and including scarcely-performed and obscure songs. These include '''[[IN THE LIFE|Crazy Rendezvous]]''' and '''[[RISKY|VAMPIRE WOMAN]]'''—two songs not performed for seventeen and eighteen years, respectively.
As is usual with the showcase concerts, B'z played a number of older and more obscure songs. One of these, '''[[IN THE LIFE|Soredemo Kimi ni wa Modorenai]]''', despite being released on '''[[IN THE LIFE]]''' back in 1991, had never been played live prior to this show.


Along with the band's appearance at '''[[SUMMER SONIC#2009|SUMMER SONIC 2009]]''', these were the only shows B'z performed in 2009.

All shows featured the same setlist. It is worth noting that '''[[MY LONELY TOWN]]''' had not yet been announced and was played as a surprise, causing fans to speculate on the true title before eventually settling on the one that would later be proven correct.
The ending music played while the band left the stage at this concert was '''[[BURN -Fumetsu no Face-|Kibou no Uta]]''', a song that had not been released at the time. It would be released just three months later as the 3rd beat to the band's 45th single, '''[[BURN -Fumetsu no Face-]]'''.
