A numbing live performance in a market full of treasures.
First is a small market where people who are old acquaintances of Mr. Kobayashi bring their personal belongings and items from their own brands. The vendors are people who rarely participate in flea markets, and every year, many customers come from the morning to see the treasures they display. Some people even come from as far as Tokyo just for this event .
Inside the clubhouse, Takanori Murakami's custom print store and Forrester Spice & Music, a curry shop based in Nakameguro, Tokyo, as well as Mountain Research, opened stores. KARASUYAMA FOOD SERVICE also served excellent chili dogs.
The unique feature of the event was the fortune-telling corner by Gaku Gaku, who contributes to a limited number of media outlets. Gaku Gaku has contributed his fortune telling to a limited number of media outlets, but on this day, he used astrology, numerology, palmistry, and tarot to tell one's fortune, including the past, future, and goals and trials in life, in no uncertain terms. He was super accurate, you know .
Then, at 7:00 p.m., it was time for the much-anticipated live performance.
The secret gig, in which no one is told who will appear until the live performance starts on the day of the event, is a style unique to A.M.C. The event was a surprise when the lid was opened. The lid was opened to a surprise, and this time, Takashi Hamasaki of FLYING KIDS made an appearance.
Mr. Hamasaki's relationship with Mr. Kobayashi goes back about 40 years. This was before Mr. Kobayashi started Mountain Research, when he was working as a shoe designer. Mr. Hamasaki had just become the third king of Ika-ten.
I was in and out of the same place at the time, and at first I made fun of Hama-chan. . I thought he was just a band from Ikaten, or something like that. When I behaved in such a careless and careless manner in front of him, of course Hama-chan got angry with me ......, but we started to get to know each other properly (laughs).
Mr. Hamasaki's premium live performance began after Mr. Kobayashi's introduction. The sound of his guitar and his thick, extended voice echoed throughout the clubhouse. The audience of about 50 people, who were lucky enough to have tickets to the event, were intoxicated by the sound.
The cover song "You Like Whiskey, Don't You?", which was also used in the commercial, made the drinks go down, and the children were excited to hear "The Great Adventure of Beesuke the Marble", which is very popular on NHK E-television. The adults sang along in chorus with "To the Place Where the Wind Blows Through".
. Mr. Hamasaki, it seems, does not usually come to nature at all. Of course, he does not camp at all, and this was his first visit to "Suigen no Mori Camp Land" (Suigen Forest Camp Land).
I had a concert in Tokyo yesterday, and I was pretty tired, but when I came here, I felt energized. It was almost a mystery to me that campers work during the week and camp on weekends, but I thought, 'So this is what it's like. I thought, "So that's what this is all about," and I was like, "Oh, they're going to charge. So today I was able to recharge unexpectedly, and meeting you all made me think that I may reconsider my way of life in the future (laughs).
Ms. Hamasaki is holding solo live performances on a regular basis. For more information, please visit ,.Insta-AccountCheck with the
Before we had time to soak up the afterglow, the bingo game followed. From here, the baton passed to Mr. Ishii, the press and famous store manager of "Mountain Research". The participants of the small market brought a large number of items from their own brands to the event, and they were treated to a grand feast. If the event were held in Tokyo, the lineup would have been so large that there would have been too many people to attend.
Afterwards, we can gather around the world's largest fire pit made of spatula in the clubhouse, or go back to our tents for family time.
When the program of the event was successfully over, I asked Mr. Kobayashi again about his thoughts on A.M.C. . As is always the case, Mr. Kobayashi's talk made me realize many things, and after the talk, I felt positive, strangely enough.
