Kirin Ichiban Fest

[Alcoholic Beverage]
I am amazed how they can turn this:

Into this:

For 4 – 5th of November 2011, the Fountain @ Clarke Quay turns into a venue bringing you high quality Japanese Entertainment.
Special Thanks to Asia Pacific Brewery (APB) and Hpility for the invitation to the event on Saturday!
Special VIP Access! (:

The night started with APB and Kirin Singapore’s representatives on the stage!

First performance by Kuni-ken! They are a Shamisen (三味線) band. When you think of Shamisen, you may think that it is largely traditional. With modern arrangements, they fused the traditional and contemporary music together!

Rock on!
They did a collaboration with the next performer,Takahiro! He is a dancer, a choreographer, and a stage director!

See how flexible is he!

His solo segment!

During the break, we went to take photos with the Kirin Wall!
(Photos with ladies dressed in Kimono!)
Last (but not least) item of the day was by Hifana; a Japanese breakbeat group made up of KEIZOmachine! (Keizo Fukuda) and Juicy (Jun Miyata). Traditional Music + DJ !

The four hours of great Japanese music and performances were accompanied with Kirin Beer! Imported from Japan!

(I name this, The Kirin Castle! (: )
PS: Not drank nor constructed by me!
It goes well with Sushi and yakimono too!
The Grand Finale wraps up the whole Festival!


[Anyway, drink responsibly!]
