This is the perfect opportunity, and AVEX probably will do nothing else to promote it other than this online video...

I agree with you both.
Avex should spread it to other medias too - it's not hard neither extremely expensive. Also, I risk to say that more than half the public are the regular, not newcomers…

The fact they are even still doing such an event, considering low sales, still surprises me.
It's not a big deal, really.
Even if they're young it won't make a huge difference. One will go and watch a show from artists he/she, supposedly, doesn't know (regardless of age) and this person may like it or not.
I'm not surprised. Avex have a bittersweet relationship with eurobeat, they'll pull the strings whenever is necessary. At least, they're still maintaining eurobeat culture - one way or another…

Yes, but not quite a "performance" just the old dancers presenting "randomly" on the stage and taking the fans into a frenzy hehe (I talk for myself and I wasn't even there personally…!!).

Wait for some amateur footage sadly… …
