~:[CH15 - Day 168]:~ Open Minded
There was an earthquake last night and although it was minor, my shinkansen train from Niigata stopped for two hours for a safety check. It was a long delay and with an early flight, I was a little stressed out. I ended up focusing on finishing up some editing and made it back safely so I could repack and then head back out again. It was refreshing to run into some friends at the airport as we took a short adventure around Takamatsu before the event. It was a mysterious event as we didn't know what the expect with a ska band collaborating with Atarashii Gakko, but it was an event that was one of the most impressive. I think when people create events or festivals, they try to match it so that the attendees will enjoy it. However, with many AG fans not listening to ska and vice versa, they both opened their eyes to a new world and the mix created the most energetic and exciting environments. Everyone was into it and loving it, as their open mindedness allowed them to experience something unexpected. At the end of the night, a lady who I met at the entrance who loved ska was elated. She said how wonderful of a performance it was and how much she enjoyed watching AG as my friend and I responded back that we throughly enjoyed it as well. Although I had work to do, my energy was high from the amazing day as I relived the many incredible moments in my head over and over again. Sometimes when you least expect it, two things you never thought would be compatible can creat something beyond your imagination. Don't be afraid to try something new!
