Outing: Last weekend was Tanabata matsuri in Asagaya. We went there like almost every year to see the latest sculptures hanging outside each shop.
Music event: On Saturday August 10 I went to see hitomitoi at Billboard Live Tokyo! This was a show themed around latest album "Surfbank Social Club". Like last year's show did for album "City Dive", this year's show featured all of the songs from the new album. Usually you'd expect to hear a few of the best songs from the album, and then some older favorites, but I like the way that she sings all of the new songs without exception, as they're all good! The back band included two members from Nona Reeves! There were also two songs featuring special guests Luvraw & BTB. The show's opening and closing songs were ones written by Dorian (who wasn't part of the show this year). I had a great time!
