sad..

but to put in perspective
begs question..

how many singers, musicians and artists perished in the recent earthquake & tsuname ??

Japanese culture is so very special..

can't begin to comprehend the full scale of human loss..

love and respect to Japanese folk..


all those people .. all that industry.. all that art.. all those wonderfull Japanese hand crafted musical instruments..
lost in one moment of seismic catastrophe..

reminds of how most of entire Japanese silent movie archive was burned & lost to allied bombing raids..
