Travel up to Fuji Rock

The day started when I met up with Sean Brophy at my hotel. We then met up with a few others and headed up to the hotel where we were staying. This was about 30 kilometers from Mount Naeba, where Fuji Rock is being held. We left Shibuya at about midday ish and arrived at around 7pm. We checked in and then threw our bags in the room and went straight up to the Festival. There were a few bands playing on one stage.

We finally left the site at 2am and drove back to our hotel. I edited up photos and finally got to bed at 5:30..
