【Nii Tete Boye's LIVE】
I apologize for the delay in posting, but
in July, Nii Tete Boye came and performed for us!
The Panlogo, a traditional instrument from Ghana in West Africa.
He played it by striking the surface with his palms, and at first, I was captivated by the unique rhythm, unsure of how to move my body, watching the vivid hand movements as he struck the drum.
There were several songs that allowed the audience to participate with clapping and singing, which gradually helped me understand the rhythm structure.
Nii Tete Boye played the five drums effortlessly, as if the Panlogo had become a part of his body.
In the middle of the LIVE,
there was a special collaboration featuring a Bon song performed by Nii Tete Boye and the villagers!
Their beautiful harmonies singing a challenging melody merged with the sounds of Nii Tete Boye and the bear drum.
As the Bon song resonated, I felt as if I had come to a different place, experiencing a strange sensation.
The performance was that captivating.
That night, there was food and drink available for sale from the guesthouse GA.KOPPER!
We enjoyed Jollof rice, groundnut butter soup, and chili dogs, which are beloved in West Africa 🤤
While sipping on the sweet hibiscus tea called Bissap, we had a wonderful night 🌙

【Summer Festival with Swaying Lanterns】
Many of you may have already seen it.
The summer version display inside Komu!
From the parking lot outside,
you can see the lantern decorations swaying in the small window.
Lanterns are also hanging from the ceiling inside the building,
and fireworks are displayed on the walls.
(Amidst them, Setoushi-kun was launched 🎆)
You can enjoy games like ring toss, shooting, goldfish scooping, and watermelon catching, experiencing the fun of the festival.
When I visited Komu,
the kids were running the stalls while their fathers played customers.
The quality of the handmade ice creams lined up at the ice cream shop is incredible, so I hope you take a good look at them...!
The original fan featuring Setoushi-kun is also cute.
Before summer ends,
please come and visit us!
