Matsuri

Long time no blog..
Quite many things went by, but somehow too lazy to blog them..
Anyway, was psychoed/coerced/dragged by dear... Er not so bad but anyway...
Was persuaded by her to go for Kitaro's concert although i've only recognised 1 of his songs: Matsuri...

Although it was a weekday event that got me quite sleepy the next day, it was well worth it.
I enjoy watching musicians that do music because of their love for it..
Kitaro certainly looked like he did.
He was like a wizard concocting a mix of tunes while his supporting musicians created the background.
He seems haphazard, natural and almost experimentative with his synthesizer.
Gives me a feeling that he is playing with his 'feel'... almost like 'hmm this should go well with the tune now.. ' and magically the sound came together to produce his great brand of music.

But he appeared real old under the spotlight, thought that he may just turn blue while blowing the flute or lie down in fatigue after hitting the drums.. but he managed to pull everything off well :) He also really impressed me by his humility when he speaks.

Anyway, real glad that he played Matsuri twice.. some of the other tunes were great too but not that spectacular. (Maybe i hadn't heard them before) And during the 2nd time he played Matsuri, he actually joined the ranks of the backup drummers and hit the drums with them... Could see their smiling faces when he did that.. Making it truly a 'festival'
