This started as a rainy day but things improved as the event started. We managed to play two sets of roughly 45 min each. Enjoyed performances by WLA Taiko, Cosmos Gakuin Children's group, Magician Daisuke Seo, and the Ho'Aloha Polynesian Dancers.
We were very happy to be able to play at the Shinnenkai (New Year Party) at West Los Angeles Buddhist Temple. We were preceded by a Minyo Japanese Folk Song Group L.A. Chikureikai who performed traditional tunes from various regions of Japan.
