SPIRITUS Live in Miyako, September 10, 2015, at Country's Cafe

There was the live held by SPIRITUS, the saxophone quartet, in the Country's Cafe in Miyako.
This was the 2nd visit for them to visit Miyako for the live.
I know Ms. Onodera Tomoko san had been working hard to bring them over to Miyako; She went to Morioka to pick them up from there, took them around for their meals, prepared their stages,  made the advertisement for the live, and so on so on.. So, I'd love to deeply appreciate for her hard works to make them come over.
Thank you very much, Tomoko-san, and thank you for letting me know about this live.

The show was just amazing.
Their instruments, the saxophones, can make very high sound pressure and impact, but on the other hand, they can create very delicate melody lines.  Moreover, the saxophones they have are the different kinds, such as, soprano, alto, tenor, and baritone.  With those combinations, they can drag you into their world of sounds easily.  So, I felt their world.  It was just great.

I thought I had enough money for the ticket and some drink, but of course, they had CDs that they were selling wherever they go for their live.
They asked people there to help them to make their luggage lighter by buying their CDs.
I had 2,000 yen in my wallet at the moment, so, I went to see their CD with the wish of the price less than 2,000 yen to the reception desk where they placed their CD.
Unfortunately, the CD was 2,800 yen.
I picked up one CD and was looking at its songs' titles, and when I was about to put it back, one of their fan lady came to me and said
"Hey, they can sign on the CD for you!
Last time, I asked them to write `I love you` for me from each one of 4 members!
But they only wrote one line saying 'We love you' instead of 4 'I love you!'  I really wanted 'I love you' message from each one of them!  They are great!  You've got to buy the CD!  Buy it and take it out from the wrapping so they can sign for you!"
Well, I think she was drunk.
I did not have enough money, but she was really pushing me, so I lost the timing to put it back.  Then, I asked Tomoko san if I could borrow some money from her.
She was kind enough to led me have 1,000 yen.

I've got to take her lunch or dinner sometime for that.  
Thank you very much Tomoko-san.  The CD is awesome.

I got banned from facebook AGAIN for a week.

Facebook banned me of posting and sharing on timeline, sending messages, and like button for any post for a week.  Right now, what I can do on facebook is only to login.            I asked what I did wrong to get banned to the help desk, but they have not replied me anything yet.    What I did right before I had got banned was re-activating one of my pages about discussing the differences between the facts and the fake news on fake medias.        Well, these are my new pages:    Please give your "like" on my pages.  You will be receiving tons of update (since those pages are updated by bots) from the pages, but you can hide them too.      

Blogs and AdSense (2)

Blogs and AdSense http://itoshunsuke.blogspot.jp/2015/07/blogs-and-adsense.html     When I see my Adsense page today, I see some numbers!! *Yay* Last time I open this page after years about 10 days ago, I found that I had made only 78 yen, and other numbers on the list were zero yen. But now, I see "+224 yen!!" This is GOOD. I will donate whatever I make from my blogs to the city of Miyako. Then, hopefully the city of Miyako will let people know by saying "The blogger, Ito Shunsuke, from Miyako has donated 10,000 yen!!" on city paper. So, I will get more traffic, and it will make even more money. Then, I probably can donate 100,000 yen next year, and 1,000,000 yen for the following year, so on. When it reach to 10,000,000 yen, I will say       *LOL*

Portals in Miyako (1)

By playing INGRESS, the smartphone game, sometime it takes me to the places of cultural significance, such as public art, landmarks, monuments, etc. where I have never been or seen even in Miyako, my hometown.      I have been taking some pictures of those portals, so I would like to introduce them briefly with map link.  Some of them are not registered as the portals yet, but I had sent the request to INGRESS when I took the pictures. 1. Suidou Kouen (Water Line Park) [Portal Requesting Now] Map:  https://goo.gl/maps/jAZRP This park had opened in June 4th in 1993. You can walk not only behind the water fall, but also in the water with bear foot. So, it's nice place to "chill out" literally. 2.
