The darkness came down over my mind like a hood.
And I'm in the middle of a slump now.
I feel like I have a wall of barbed wire in front of me.

Well, I know.
The problem isn't real .... it's all in my mind.
All I have to do is break down the wall of barbed wire exist within my mind.

Monday Michiru @ Blue Note Osaka

I went to Osaka yesterday.
Monday Michiru had a gig in "Blue Note Osaka" last night.

The other members are Alex Sipiaguine played Trumpet/Flugelhorn, Henry Hey played Keyboards, and GENTA played Drums/Percussions. That's it.
--Nobody played bass.
Actually, program a synthesizer to do bass.
It was more wonderful than I had expected. I thought that is so experimental attempt.
But their playing had an uplifting feeling.
They had a strong sense of unity. We could felt that. That's amazing feeling ....

After the gig, my husband(he and Monday know each other) and me visited her backstage room.
She is so beautiful and cool.
She has an aura of assurance around herself.
We enjoyed speaking with her.

If you have never listened her new album "Routes", you should listen it.
And if you have never seen her live performance, you should see it.
Her performance is full of joy.
