the natives are restless

its that time of year around here, the rice is harvested, the sake has had just enough time to ferment to a drinkable degree, and what follows? festival time! roll out the drum, brush off the flutes, don your finest duds and wreak havoc! the drums have got me excited, i went up to do a bit of filming, all drunken young men with cool scarves on their heads, "come on lady, take my picture!" i took off instead, wait for the safety of daylight...
