Chikuzen, did you guys get any video of your events? For those of us homebodies who didn't make it to Sydney, how did things go?

Re: Chikuzen & Gishin Melbourne Concert Schedule
Chris, I thought the concerts went fine. We played at a Yoga studio and a Shiatsu school so the people attending were already on the same page. That made it quite comfortable. We also played at David Brown's dojo for his friends-who were an 'enlightened group', a dingo who was the tame pet of one bloak who also has a pet kangaroo at his house. I heard that the dingo and the Roo fought for the warmest spot in front of the fireplace! And there was also David's roomy's cat who I, of course, wanted to strangle (deathly allergy I have to them). The dingo was lying on the floor about 7 feet from me at the begining of the concert staring right at me. I don't know why but I was uncomfortable so David put the little guy outside for me. The doggy kept bumping his head on the door wanting in the rest of the night. Those who attended the concerts seemed to enjoy them and expressed such. As you can imagine, many people meditated (I think they were really sleeping) and they all were really absorbed, not just listening. Unfortunately we didn't have any video shots taken.
