It's been a very busy week. Hopefully, I'll get them up this week sometime this week...
Pedro was able to get an email out to me... apparently he's having trouble getting into the hotel's wireless network for internet...
Anyhow, I found out that he definitely got to Fukuyama-san's concert and met Tsuyoshi-san there, but something happened and he didn't make it to Tsuyoshi-san's concert. What happened, I can only speculate on for now. He returns to Puerto Rico from Japan sometime tomorrow, if I remember right. I'll ask him about it then.
Well, see ya later, eh.

I messed up...
This morning I was rearranging the BBS message areas to more clearly match my home page and accidentally erased all the messages in "Yoshiki Fukuyama Fan Chatter". ^^;
Sorry. We're going to have to start over from here, eh. By the way, I added a Fukuyama-san related poll to the message area.
I finally got word that Pedro made it to Japan ok. Tsuyoshi-san posted on his BBS and on Fukuyama-san's BBS that he found Pedro at Fukuyama-san's concert. ^-^ Yeah!
He's going to Tsuyoshi-san's concert today... or actually, he went to Tsuyoshi-san's concert yesterday. (They are 17 hours ahead of us in Japan. It's already almost 2am over there.) I look forward to seeing their reports of the concerts... and Pedro's pictures. I told Pedro to take lots of pictures...
As I said, we went to Folklife Festival in Seattle last Sunday. As usual, it was totally cool! We saw some performances by a a group of flaminco dancers, a rock group singing in Punjabi, a trio that consisted of guitar, drums, and bagpipes, and a small but ecclectic klezmer band. Also, as usual, there were lots of street performers everywhere... some of them were buskers and some were just people who decided on the spur of the moment to just play. My favorite was this couple on guitar and spoons (I think)... and their little daughter, who couldn't have been more than about 4 or 5, who would hold out a cup and say "money, please".(heehee) Her parents told her to dance around instead, but we got more kick out of watching her with the cup.
Actually, we got to the festival a little later than usual this year because on the way we kind of made a slight detour to Kinokuniya so the girls could get their monthly manga fix. Of course, I also picked up the CDs I had ordered: Fukuyama Fire! (by Yoshiki Fukuyama) and Insert Song Collection (by JAM Project). After that we walked the couple miles to Seattle Center from the International District which had the desired effect of tiring the kids out enough that I was actually able to sit and watch a couple whole performances. (Yeah!)
Fukuyama Fire! is cool. Go and add it to your Fire Bomber collection - if for no other reason but for the new song, "Like a fire"! I'll be adding a translation of the song to my site sometime tonight (I hope). I'm also working on JAM project's "Peaceful One" off the JAM-ISM album and "asu he no hougou" off the "Insert Song Collection" CD that I just bought.
Till next time...
