While the trip to Fukuoka two weeks ago, we stopped by at arcade for a few hours. These photos show that young people enjoy playing Taiko drums, which are usually known to be ones of traditional Japanese intruments [Wikipedia]. So, I thought sharing these photos might be interesting. Then, I found that the game software for PS2 is sold at Amazon, so maybe this is not so new to some of you, but I bet those sticks and drums can't be found at arcades outside of Japan. Or, I could be wrong..
Then, I had an opportunity to watch Taiko performance at a local elementary school last weekend. It was awesome! I suppose not many kids have chances to do this kind of stuff, especially in cities. Well, it was simply great to watch their performance.
