I am very happy to see this on the front page. Great job Satoshi!!
I have seen Japanese phans at shows ever since 2000. Maybe not every show, but definitely every tour. Many struggle with English, but not with navigating tour and making quick friends on the road. I can't even imagine coming to a foreign country, not knowing the language or even alphabet, and trying to follow a band around the country. Truly an accomplishment on its own. Satoshi also shows us that everyone's experience and peak moments happen at different times and reasons. On the other hand, most of us lose our balls at some point!
