sitting in the lounge at narita getting ready to fly to new york.
last night we played at fuji rock, and it was really fun, although the fun was slightly compromised by the gigantic bugs that were assaulting us on stage.
we played in the dark during the rain, so the only lights and shelter were on stage.
thus: giant bugs. giant beetles. giant everythings.
all attacking us while we played.
and, i kid you not, but the festival had been rain-free all weekend, and then when we began to play ‘raining again’ the heavens opened up and there was a torrential downpour.
i’m always especially grateful for audiences who will endure torrential downpours to watch us perform.
and this was torrential. as if the entire festival was being scrubbed under a gigantic shower-head.
ok, time for the 14 hour flight back home.
