I would be happy if this was in some place other than California.

Didn't know they had the influence in America to close down Hollywood. But then nowadays, they close down the area for DTV movies. -_-

And the reason for this sentiment?
It's a normal occurance in SoCal. We had the end of the street I work on closed for a Dan Ackroyd movie a few yrs back.

Then why phrase it "other than California"? The person can make it to any other state except California?

Sad I would love to go, but California is FAR to far away for me on such short notice... Wish I'd have known about this several months ago....

So it's @ 4 p.m. that day. Not sure for how long it's gonna go, but at least you can walk to a McDs in-between breaks. Kind of excited, 'cus this is my first "concert". [Yeah, I know I had a shitty social life to be attending this kind of thing @ 30. Crying or Very sad ]

It was a fun event. Largest crowd for a street performance I'd seen in years, too. Plus some crazy pyro-technics which-considering the stage was built between the roofs of two nearby buildings, seemed a tad dangerous. Toshi-san seemed the most friendly with the audience, by waving and even blowing a kiss while leaning over the rail and smiling. Would've stayed longer, but craning your neck and standing there for a while's a pain, and I already stood through four videos. [Though I would have liked to stay longer....] Anyway, someone uploaded a brief, scratchy video of the event.
