An Evening of Chanson in Shinjuku!

Last night, I attended a chanson performance in Shinjuku with former child actor Yoshiro Uchida, as well as two female singers. I first met Uchida-san less than a month ago, so I was surprised that I'd get another chance to see him so quickly.

The whole show lasted about two and a half hours, but it flew by. I spoke with an older Japanese lady there who lived in several U.S. cities back in the 1970s. It was great to make her acquaintance, too!


After the show, we took some obligatory photos. Overall, I had a lot of fun, and I think Uchida-san was a bit surprised to hear that I did. But it was a great time. I hope to get another chance in the future!
