Hebetude Posted September 6, 2005 Share Posted September 6, 2005 -Mariko flies down and catches Dan. Â Here, lie-down. I want you to survive, til we go to Japan. Â Hello smiddel. Another Japan-fan? Japanese is a hard language to learn, but you know a very useful phrase ... maybe this is all you need! Â well, I've been here for 5 months now, which means I've studied Japanese for just as long. I can understand quite a bit and maybe reply in japanese too, but somehow writing still isn't going very well.... :S but I'll just have to keep studying, right? *decides to leave comp in 10 min to pick up that pack of kumon again... * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imported cd's are very cheap, so it makes no sense. I dunno bout any websites that specifically show which bands are coming to Japan, but keeping an eye on the website of the band you would like to see is never a wrong idea. There's also a lot of info on concerts in every cd store, though that is mainly from national artists. Western music simply isn't so popular....

Meteora.stan Posted September 20, 2005 Share Posted September 20, 2005 sounds like you are a native Japanese now! Will you feel sorry when you have to leave? My parents and grandparents went Japan not so long ago.the only word they could is"clean".Even the roof of the house. I really hope that the ppl in our country could make a good study of the experience of holding a concert in Japan from the Japanese...I'm extremely hoping that..so that i could go to see more bands doing Lives without going aboard!(Truth is i never been aboard* :'( *) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're a bit crappy in your timing, festival season just ended. Summersonic was very good from what I've heard. I just remembered, I have to watch BS172 this friday... They're broadcasting glastonbury 2004 at 22.00. It was also broadcasted last week, but I didn't know, so I missed muse Tokyo isn't dirty in the way that my city in Holland was. It's polluted for sure, The air is in some areas really bad (busy road near my school... whenever I cross it I feel a year of my life slipping away...), but the streets are remarkable clean. So are the trains and subways. That really surprised me from a city where 11 million people live.... going back to Holland will be difficult in some ways. I'll really miss the food! But on the other hand, I haven't seen my family and friends for over 6 months. That is starting to get to me. But I'll just enjoy the time I have here. a bit les than 4 months to go!

My hostdad zapped past it, so I yelled 'マッテ！マッテ！この バンド 大好き！’ but that was just the end of muse's performance, but then they announced that they would rerun it next friday (because of the holiday and all) soo..... I7m stuck in front of the telly then, I'm telling ya! oh and Butterfly, if you need any more information about anything, feel free to ask. You can also PM me. now I'm gonna listen to borderline again... ah... sweet bliss........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
