No, but let me know
cos i'm going to Japan next year
Yah
its great. On a big scale too. The Japanese crowds are rather polite though. Its like a very friendly, clean version of T in the Park, but much hotter! Expect lots of big western bands.
Expensive??!!
...for food and beer?!?! How far is Mt Fuji and is the camp site as clean as I expect it will be.....?!?!?!
Its relatively
expensive I suppose, but not really any different from prices at UK festivals. Its not actually by Fuji, although I think it use to be - its by the side of a different mountain, can't remember its name though....
