Tonight we went to see Oyama x Nitta Duo perform for a Japan relief fundraiser here in Austin, organized by JASGA. It was amazing! The award-winning duo play tsugaru-shamisen, which is a traditional instrument that I’m sure you’ve heard before. It was incredible to hear and see live. We sat only several feet away so you could really feel the power of that instrument. Later on we got to meet the duo and take some photos with them. It was a great concert for a worthy cause. 100% of the proceeds will go to a relief fund for the disaster-stricken areas of Japan.

Since I am reminiscing about Japan (only a couple more days until I am on the plane), here’s another song that I used to listen to back then. I was probably December of 1996. I used to put my new Pizzicato Five CD ”great white wonder RARE MASTERS 1990`1996” into my Sony Discman and hop on the Friday night bullet-train from Tokyo Station to Osaka. This song was the soundtrack at the time, zipping through the stations and passing the city lights. I remember arriving in Osaka and waiting at the station, smoking cigarettes until Mariko got off work. Those were such fun times!

Another P5 tune from the disc!
