My Birthday!!!!!

今日はフィリップの○回目の誕生日！
久保田利伸Excite Music Festival'06のリハーサルの後、なんとメンバーがサプライズパーティーを開いてくれました！
I had a surprise Birthday cake and champagne today at rehearsal.I got presents and cards,and a long birthday song from everybody(Stevie Wonder style)!

メンバー＆スタッフからのBirthday Card。スゴクあったかいVibeを感じますね！　ちなみにCardと一緒に入っていた50円は、フィリップの年にかけてるとか・・・。

　Everybody signed birthday cards.They teased me about turning 50 years old.Can you believe Im 50 already?(I dont)

　Philip曰く”マブダチ！”のRalphからのBirthday present。Coooool！

　Im so happy to be with nothing but cool people on tour.
Ralph gave me this shirt...he said he knew it was just right for me.What do you think?

アリーナリハ Start!

今日からアリーナにむけてのリハーサルがスタートしました！
ということは、もうすぐ皆ともしばしのお別れ…。今回のTourではいつも以上にメンバー同士仲良くなっただけに、皆名残惜しいみたいです！

Hiking ＠奥多摩

Today is my day off. Carlos and I are hiking in the mountains. We　are in the mountains in Okutama. This road is Mukashi Michi.It means "Ancient Road". The air is cool next to this mountain waterfall. Feels so good!






We found this pool at a power station next to this stream. It flows into the Tamagawa River. This place was like air conditioning on this hot day! We didnt want to go!






This place is Hatonosu. It means "Pigeon`s Roost". This gorge is maybe the most beautiful that I have seen.Carlos loves nature, hiking and photography. He took hundreds of photos!






Its been a long hike. Four hours! From Okutama Lake to Okutama Station. We will sleep well tonight! We ate oishii Tenzaru Soba,and are ready for the long ride back to Tokyo.

See You!

Happy Birthday Toshi!!!

Toshi`s band members bought him these cakes. Tanjobi omedetoooo!







Just chillin` after a short rehearsal. This izakaya is oishi. My Yellow brothers are always hanging together.

"SunMin thanx Kubota"

今日は、お台場のフジテレビでTVの撮影でした。前日のリハーサル＆当日の撮影とで、メンバーにとってはかなりのハードスケジュールでしたが、オーケストラが入ったり、オシャレなセットだったりで、楽しい時間だったようです。
その様子は、７月14日の23:30start、フジテレビ系列”ぼくらの音楽”で！

This is on Fuji TV. The set of "Bokurano Ongaku"It was so exciting to be with a 14 piece string orchestra! The show was featuring SunMin,a Korean singer that Kubota san produced. This song is featured in a movie soon to be released.

僕らの音楽 リハーサル！

前日のLiveから直接リハーサルでお台場に移動！
