I became really crazy about Hard Rock and Heavy Metal music in the early 80’s. I went to a lot of concerts in Japan. Best of all, I was totally into Michael Schenker , and every time he came to Japan, I traveled all over Japan to see all of his shows.I started going abroad to see concerts in the late 80’s. The first one was the Monster’s of Rock in England and Germany in 1987. Then the next year I moved to Los Angeles, California and stayed there for about five years.
I enjoyed going to the concerts there too but as I became busy studying in college, I stopped going to concerts. Believe or not, studying became more interesting for me. The learning process / style in the States was completely different from that in Japan. And for the first time in my life, I actually enjoyed studying.
After coming back to Japan, I hardly go to concerts except for Michael Schenker. I still travel all over Japan to see his shows. He is special and exceptional.
Other things I love other than music are…
Cats
I am a cat lover. I just can’t stop doting on my cat, Kotaro. You can see some of his pictures in my Picture section.
Teddy bears
I make teddy bears.　You can see some of my works in my Picture section too.
Travel …I’ll upload some pictures from my trips soon.
Lastly I’d like to thank Kouichi Ogawa for encouraging and actually helping me to make my own MySpace page.

About project "FARAWAY"
FARAWAY is a worldwide collaboration tune that shows how the Internet can be used for creativity and to bring people together from far away!! When it was completed, the three talented guitar players had never met each other in person.
Kouichi Ogawa, from Japan, composed the tune and then Khaled Al-Kandari, from Kuwait, and Roger Bleck, from the U.S, added guitar parts to it - you can find them on my top friend list. Each has a different playing style, and we can enjoy the difference. You can listen to the tune on Kouichi’s page.
By the way, the graphic art above was done by a talented artist, KAMIKAZE, from France. It’s cool, isn’t it?
