Golden Week Part 1

Last week was Golden week, so Sarah and I headed up to Tokyo.
先週のGWにセーラと東京に行った。

First, we went to the Hoppin & Steppin Showcase http://clubcitta.co.jp/schedule/s0804/d04.shtml#anc080504
最初、Hoppin & Steppin Showcaseのライブに行った。

It was a great show! My favorite bands of the day were Frail Head Squeeze, Dallax, Moody Rudy, and Cutie Pi ( ;) ). I haven't seen Frail Head Squeeze since September and there show was awesome. Moody Rudy was my first show, but I was quite impressed with them, they put on a good show. Several other bands were good, but I think there were the most notable.
スゴカッタ！私の好きなバンドはFrail Head Squeeze, Dallax, Moody Rudy, Cutie Piです。Frailは７ヶ月ぶり見ていた、めっちゃヤバかった。MoodyRudyって言うバンドは初めて見た、でもすごい感動した、とても盛り上がった。まぁ、他のバンドもだいたい好きだったけど。。。

Since there were 18 bands and the show was all day, we packed lunches to eat at the venue. We ate white bean hummus from Eat, Drink, and Be Vegan (http://www.amazon.com/Eat-Drink-Be-Vegan-Celebrations/dp/1551522241), flatbread from Cozy Inside (http://www.amazon.com/Cozy-Inside-Delicious-comforting-recipes/dp/1604028955/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1210228115&sr=1-1), couscous, tamari roasted chickpeas also from EDBV, and chopped carrots. We had quite a feast.
１８バンドがあったから、弁当を持っていった。説明はちょっと難しい。。。もちろん、ビーガンのディップ、パン、クスクス、たまり味のヒヨコ豆、とニンジンです。英語を読める方、是非おすすめの本を買って読んでください。
