wire03!
i went to this big techno event called WIRE last night.
ishino takkyu, the guy from denki groove and probably one of those most famous japanese techno guys in the world, is holding this event every year from 1999.
since it was the 5th year this time, so the guest lineup was so special.
there were ken ishii, toby, westbam, kagami, dj tasaka, fumiya tanaka, technasia... especially, ken ishii's style is totally opposite to tackQ, and these two guys are so popular in japan but they never did even together. so it was so special!
i was working before this live and once customer came to my cash resister with the wire's flyer. so i asked here like "oh my god! are you going to WIRE also??" and she was like "yeah! thank god! can you show me how to get to this place? because i have no idea~~!" she was foreigner and didnt speak japanese, so we talked in english...
then after work, i took subway and met this girl again at the station! so we were both alone and talked until train got to the arena. she was from greece, and she is traveling many countries working as a model. she is still 17 years old, but she was like my age.( im 22 right now.) we talked about techno music, she said people in greece love techno music ( same as other european countries) and she can go to takku ishino's dj live show ( like really good techno dj) for $7!! i paid like $100 to go to this wire and if i just went to takkyu's live, it costed me around 50 bucks for sure!!! i think i should move to europe....
she told me greece is republic and its economically really different from japan. also, they have other countries languages from elementary school or something. she said she speaks greece, english, german and latin and understands italian pretty much. she was wanting to learn japanese language but she said she doesnt think she could because its really difficult.. i think compared to english, japanese is really difficult as a language. we use 3 different alphabet things and also lots of chinese characters too. but thats why japanese vocabraly is huge and japanese is really beautiful.
why am i talking about language..? anyway, wire was so fun, but me and my friend naomi realized we got really old physically. i should work out i guess!
