Perhaps this singer is famous in Japan - the crowd was very eager to hear him sing, and applauded after every verse, as is custom.


And he finishes with a deep bow to his audience.


And another traditional singer performs - a woman in beautiful summer kimono.


Watch this short video to hear a little of her song . . .


Meanwhile, Tanya's husband is getting set up to video her Taiko drum group - coming up soon. They're our neighbors & have invited us to this festival in downtown Iwakuni tonight.
