We play at Lakes Art Center at 8:30 pm tonight. Last time we were here in very cold winter and all the lakes were frozen. It is nice to be in summer and we are very looking forward to play.

We loaded in at just before 3 pm, since we have guitar work shop in different room.

We had 45 min. work shop this afternoon. Today, we try to play with them with standard tuning, so we did a lot of circulation. And I showed the puzzling groove in 7 in Em.

After work shop, we did sound check. Sounds fine.

Very, very nice audience they are at Lakes Art Center! Thank you for coming and see you again!

This is the Set lists from tonight. We changed Set. So, Tubular Bells before Prelude cir. and added Train to Lamy after the Echoes.

We had dinner in the Art Center and ate most popular food in Iowa, the chicken. But, there was no corns, since it is reserved for energy resource, maybe?

We went lunch for Pizza place and saw this poster.

We stay at Bridge Bay Resort ?Hotel? in Okoboji. But, there was no phone in any room and no payphone anywhere which I need. So, I use the reception phone which is only one phone in the building to call Japan. Luckily, there was internet, though.

I made flight from Japan on July 31 to Sioux Falls, SD and stayed in Best Western near airport for 2 nights, didn't go anywhere. And on Aug. 2, we met each other at airport and drove to Okoboji. It is nice to see some scenery even just corn fields over and over.
