Asuco's Diary

先日は友人のTakashi Shinoharaくんの結婚パーティー。彼は中学生の頃からの友人です。アメリカで音楽の勉強をした後、現在は東京で音楽活動しています。
仲良しの友人をあつめたアットホームなパーティ。
The other day I went to a wedding party for my friend Takashi Shinohara. We are good friends since when we were junior high school students. He studied music in America and now is playing in Tokyo. The party had a cozy atmosphere with his good friends.

奥様のはスキューバダイビングを趣味とするアクティブウーマン。　ふとした時に見つめ合う二人がとってもキュートなカップルでした。
His wife is an active woman since her hobby is scuba diving.
They are such a cute couple specially when they glance at each other momentarily.

もちろん、Shinoharaくんのライブも。。　　
出席の友人達みんな、’友達の演奏’というよりは、’あるミュージシャンの演奏’という目で聞き入っていました。　
感動した。
そして、彼の好きな曲’Stand By Me' をカバーしたのを聞いた時は、自分たちが一緒に遊んでいた学生の頃の風景が頭をよぎり、なんだか嬉しくて涙出そうでした。
Of course he did music live!!
All his friends were listening to his play, it was not like listening to a 'friend's play', listening with their eyes from 'musician's play'.
It was pretty intense.
And then, when he played a cover of one of his favorites, 'Stand By Me', I was happy and almost cried because it reminded me that we spent good school time together when we were students.

そして都内でのパーティー。
昔の懐かしい顔ぶれが集まり、一気に同窓会気分。
都内で活躍する人気美容師やら、グラフィックデザイナーやら。今はどんな仕事や生活をしているにしろ、昔にもどって気兼ねない話、飾らない話をしていました。
ほとんど学生の頃と変わらない口調。。。ね、タケちゃん。
The party was held in Tokyo, so old faces got together and rang good old days of memories.
Some are popular hair designers or graphic designers...etc now. But we still can talk without constraint and natural talk goes back to old days. Talk hasn't changed from when we were students.... Has it, Takeshi 'Rock 'n Roll' Yuzawa?

なんだかほっとした夜。
It was a relieving night...
