Go Shiina!

Shiina san, one of ANIF 07's guests arrived in Sydney on Sunday. I had the pleasure of meeting him on Sunday night as me, Hiroaki, Bing (Eminence's PR and marketing person) Shiina san and Kameoka san (another guest, and also performing organist for the concert) went to Max Brenner on Oxford St, Paddington for some chocolately dessert. Shiina san is one hell of a funny and great guy. Despite our inability to communicate (his broken English and my non-existant Japanese) with each other, we both see eye to eye on the important things in life, like girls for example. Only good things of course. Naturally.

So today, Shiina san and Kameoka san went to the Easter Show. I am very impressed that they managed to get out to Homebush by themselves considering English is virtually non-existant between the two of them, aside from their electronic translator. From what i gathered having dinner with them tonight, they really enjoyed it, checked everything out including the smelly animals and prize-redeeming games. No show bags though. Oh well.

Well, it's almost concert time, 3 days to go. Unbelievable, it's really upon us, and we're all so stressed out with the work we all have to do to prepare for it. I've visited some of the management team in the past few days, and they are just flat out exhausted but they continue on like machines because there is no choice but to get the work done.
