Luke and I went to a Shamisen workshop led by Kevin and Takemi Hirohara.
Last year, when Ryo Hagiwara and Pierre Ono came, all the chairs were full and it was a full house. The workshop lasted an well over an hour.
Well, this year, The turnout was much lower. It was pretty much me, Luke, the teachers, and the guys who I played with at the Cabrillo fest.
The last workshop worked like this: The performers play for a while and afterwards, the answer questions and at the end, you get to try out the instrument. Well, this year, since nobody came, they skipped the concert and we all played! (which I perfered ’cause I’d rather play than lisen)
