Synopsis
The show opened in darkness with Kubota appearing on stage to perform "Keep It Rock" in multi-colored leopard skinned robe, as the stage lights lit up the stage. After the performance, Kubota removes his robe to reveal his blue colored blazer, blue crew neck T-shirt, and blue dress pants. He then proceeds into performing "Daiyamondo no Inutachi", followed by "Tomorrow Waltz". During "The Sound of Rain", Kubota and his background singers perform while sitting on stools along with the stage lights turned down low. The following song "Is It Over?" is a duet with background vocalist "Yuri". The stage lights were once again turned down for the slow-grooves "The Sound of Carnival" and "Nyte Flyte". In the song "La La La Love Song", the dancers joined Kubota on stage. Olivia Burrell also performs Naomi Campbell's parts in the song.

The background singers perform the songs "Right Here" and "Human Nature". Kubota returns the stage and performs Michael Jackson's song "Rock with You" in brown trenchcoat, black vest, white shirt, and red pants. During the song "The Other Half", Kubota removes his trenchcoat and the lights fade out as the song ends. Kubota performs "Missing" without any backing vocalists from his background singers.

In the song "Star Light", the dancers return to the stage as Kubota dances with them at certain times. The performance also featured a bass rift solo. The show proceeded as Kubota performed "You Were Mine" which contained brief excerpt of "Another Star". The final song on the tour's setlist was "Soul Mate". Afterwards, Kubota gives an encore with "Oh, What a Night" in which he introduces his band, background singers, and dancers. He also performs "Love Rain (Koi no Ame)" and "Cymbals" as the final songs of the show.
