How To Empty Wavemaster

Djembe

Marijke, Marion, Sujin (Marion's Korean roommate, a very nice woman) and I had yesterday (Saturday 29.1.) An appearance with the Djembe-KAN, I thought, I'll show you some videos to it.

This is a video of the training last Thursday:

And these are the videos from the concert itself:

Unfortunately, it is so dark, that one actually does not recognize. You hear it correct when I was called Therefore, one can also see a lot of net. Very sad really.

The performance itself was a lot of fun and was much better than I had feared. I hope we do something soon.
After the show we had, unfortunately, the unpleasant opportunity to look into the drinking habits of the Japanese closer. We went with all circles of musicians after the concerts and drink in Japan, there seems to be common to want to carry each other into a coma.
I think it's a nice gesture that we drink to every single one circle, because they did a good job. But yesterday was really exaggerated. From the nice gesture quickly became a game to let the others possible to drink a lot and sometimes just across their borders to force out. Since in Japan indeed true face must necessarily be, of course, one may not refuse a request if the other for drinking. And so we had to watch as one by one drank too much and then directly into one of the bags as a precaution dealt at the table, handed over if he no longer managed the door.
Shuzo, our Djembe-KAN-leader told me in the course of the evening, as he leaned with bright red eyes and ashen face against a chest of drawers in order not to fall, 5 times that he had already emptied his stomach.
This was really an experience to which I could have done without. Fortunately, even Japanese (mostly female) here who thought the whole thing just as barbaric as we do.
