I think I used to listen to more music when I was younger. However, as I grew up and moved ahead on the path of life, the music gradually moved away from my ears, until I suddenly noticed, I was absorbed in my work and finished the day without any music. Is that really how I wanted to live? No, that’s not the case. Work is just a source of livelihood, a way to live and eat your favorite soba every day. So don't forget your favorite music...

With that in mind, I've been getting on planes more and more lately as a reward for my work. The reason is that it is the only in the air where I can calmly watch a movie during the flight. In July 2019, I returned to Los Angeles for work and took my first flight in six months on a JAL international flight. JAL changes the movie menu every month. The last time I flew, I was able to watch the long-awaited Bohemian Rhapsody. I know that I will be glued to my laptop because I have a lot of work to do this time, but I still hope that I can work while watching a movie. And then as I looked through the JAL Mooove! movie menu, uh! Excellent! The Rolling Stones: Voodoo Lounge Uncut is on the air !!

In 1994, the Stones concert at Joe Lobby Stadium in Miami, Florida, USA, was released as an uncut format, or the first complete version. I didn’t know! I was so lucky! Daily hard work is rewarded... I am writing now while watching the Stones movie and healing the exhaustion of the trip. Speaking of 1994, 25 years ago... Mick Jagger also looks very young. So while dancing and singing on the stage, he wipes the sweat on the stage with a rag by himself! Great! Keith is also really cool. Ronnie Wood is also active! The two acoustic duets are also amazing! Mick and Keith harmonizing is the best! That was such a good time....

WOW… The movie lasted for two and a half hours. It says 150 minutes. It was a really happy day to be able to return to Japan while working and receiving such a blessing from the Stones... However, this dream time is almost over, and when I suddenly realize it, it’s back to the reality of Japan. . . That is the real thrill of life! Stones! I'm rooting for you!!
