a bit of Asagiri gig.
Yesterday, Mt. Fuji had first snow fall in this season.
I saw the top whitened on TV.

This picture sent from my sister, is last night's Mt. Fuji and a full moon seen in Asagiri.
Fabulous, isn't it?
Did the band like this place?
She rang me from Asagiri so I luckily could listened to Fairytale and Fiesta through a mobile phone.
Ah! I wished I could be there!
When the band appeared on stage for encore,
I heard one of the members was wearing Afro wig!
Was that so? I wonder who it was...

Thanks Pogues, come to Japan next year, too!!
Good luck for the US tour (^^)b

I did not tell you this but some soul has put a (by the way FANTASTIC) recording of the Pogues 05/10/2006 concert at the Sabuya AX in Tokyo on http://www.dimeadozen.org (search for "pogues") .. I am not involved in this and I have only notified you.
