I am still disappointed, a little, by HF. I was so hoping for all new material on that one. So yeah, I would take this "solo" show with a grain of salt, or at least not too high of hopes.
Oki-ringo, I think you really need to have a Japanese friend walk you through all of that information, I can't read it very well either, and use imperfect translating programs much of the time. I do think, if you are into it, for anybody, heading up to Sapporo for the festival itself could be really really cool. I don't love huge festivals, but I kind of feel like I should hit up at least one while I live in Japan, and when I do, it will have to have some kind of icing on the cake. This festival definitely has that in both location and line-up. As it is, I am going to Sado-ga-shima the following weekend for the taiko group Kodo's festival. It will be very small, by design, and I am almost certain a total blast. Since I know I will have fun at this one, it makes it even more unlikely I will try to go to RSF. In my experience, huge festivals can be more not fun than fun. Although RSF looks pretty well organized. Last edited by natsume : 2008.04.16 at 01:35 PM. |

Right now, I wouldn't care if she didn't perform any new material.
It would be refreshing just seeing Shiina being Shiina and doing the old material with attitude, jumping around the stage, taking off shoes and brandishing megaphones.

Oh, Skapara is also mentioned on the RSR list. That could be cool.

I can seriously think of going, as soon as I calculate all the costs.

hmmm...I don't really have an expectations with her solo performance. I just want to see Shiina live, period. She is a wonderful musician and even if she doesn't do "the expected" I will still love her work for her work.
It's looking pretty good for me going to the RSRF. I will probably get a tent. kuro neko, whats an EM tent? Oh, and I contacted the RSRF people and a lady is helping me out. She noticed that the english site is crap and apologized lol. Wish me luck! |

I've been pretty psyched since I heard about this. I'll be in Japan in May for a week and I'll definately try to lock up some tickets then. Looks like I'll be back in August haha. See some of you folks there. There is no way I miss out on a SR performance, plus the RSR line-up looks pretty solid.

It would be a tent for Electric Mole Forum (EMF) members to hang out in. I'd try as hard as possible to get there if my dorm opens early. If not, I'll still be on time for the SotC vol. 2 shows.
